    You don’t watch Dr Who because they cast women and black men as the main character

    I don’t watch Dr Who because i have hated the piss poor writing since Moffat took over

    We are not the same

    Yes i am aware RTD is back, he had four episodes to bring me back to the franchise (three with my favourite Doctor) and i only kind of liked one of them.

    and that Goblin episode… wtf was that? Dumb… that’s what it was

    I thought i hated Matt Smith until i saw him in something that wasn’t written badly. Capaldi could have been a fantastic doctor if the writing wasn’t so shit. I gave up before i got to Whittaker so have no opinion of her tenure

      She’s a fantastic actress that had horrible writing. Also, she really aped Tennant’s Doctor’s mannerisms more than making her own, though I’m not sure how much of that was within her control.

      Watch Broadchurch if you want to see them in something good~

      Yes, so much so! Thank you, when I heard 10 was returning for a special I got so excited I started binging starting back at capaldi since that’s where I’d stopped. I didn’t make it through his tenure before the special aired. I was so disappointed in that first part of the special that I didn’t bother finishing capaldi or watching the next part of the special.

          Yeah the dragon egg one was where I tapped out.

          A dragon egg? Instantly laid by a dragon that just hatched from another egg? With the exact same mass and size as the egg the dragon just hatched from? With the exact same craters as the previous egg? And that egg is the moon?

          Like the exact same kind of feeling that Supernintendo Chalmers had to hearing about the aurora borealis in Skinner’s kitchen.

      Yeah, modern DW is a piss poor story telling. I can’t get over how bad Capaldi seasons were, he’s such a great actor! And bloody butchered in DW… I stopped watching it around then and don’t really care what’s happening now.
