Oh also, random thought, but when 15 was looking out at the universe and talking how he’s never alone, I was convinced we were getting a Lux cameo

Don’t steal my doctor from me

(blurring it because it’s very negative)

I’m so glad that Doctor Who has so much expanded media, it means I can try and pretend today’s episode didn’t happen :face_with_peeking_eye:

Okay, maybe that was a bit dramatic, but I’m feeling very angry and betrayed right now. I already went through this pain with the MCU, I didn’t think it would be like this with my beloved Doctor Who??? I get that the show changes, and that’s in the nature of it, but I don’t want it to change…to being bad??

I don’t want to try and ruin anyone else’s enjoyment, and I wish I loved it, but this season really hasn’t worked for me at all. I could look past plot or character decisions that I disagreed with/didn’t like if it was well written, but I don’t think this season was well written. I am open to changing my opinion, and I will rewatch all of Ncuti’s run to see if my opinions change, but maybe in a few months, when I’ve calmed down.

and that season was some of them right? /j

will we ever know why ncuti left so early ? is it another case of rtd mishandling the work environment like in series 1 or is it really what ncuti decided from the start ?

Plus, tangencial: I believe RTD incorporated some of Hebe’s arc in this finale. There is lots of differences and it’s not the same story at all, but there is some specific ideas that with Shirley being here I can’t help but assume is what happened.

I still wish he just made Ruth’s character be Hebe.

Oh my god I know exactly what you mean. After this I just want to hide myself away and listen to Big Finish, read some Books and Comics or just rewatch some of the old episodes.

The best thing about Doctor Who is, that even when you don’t like the current season, you still have a TARDIS sized world of media to go back to and find something you like.

He has stated in interviews on YT that the workload was a lot but that he enjoyed playing the character, so I doubt it

This baffles me so much. I understand why you might not like this episode, but I can’t understand why you would not like at least the first five episodes, which I found to be amazing.
