Just got on subway and there’s a couple chatting with a few foreign tourists and nearly forgot they’re getting off the train :rofl:

Some of them are just spreading their love for 13 which is great,but some are using chibnall era as an argument on how the show used to be so much better back then and its all bad now.

Has it ever been thus. Every current era gets unfavourably compared to the previous one.

Personaly I can’t disagree. But this is also the way the show goes,

  • When the current era has been around for a little while it is criticised.
  • A new era is announced to much expectation.
  • When the new era has been around for a little while the previous era is suddenly seen as so much better.

This cycle has continued for 6 decades!

Yeah and i understand the criticism,but Twitter is now just a toxic place honestly,i barely see RTD1 fans or Moffat fans tbh.

Someone on GBASE told me that this has been going since JNT’s era,and was this true?

That’s because those sort of places are far more likely to just have casual fans. Anyone still a fan of RTD or Moffat will be hanging out in more specific places like GB or here.

It has been for ages & not just in respect of Doccy Who.

Yep its a constant attitude towards the show. Its almost a tradition!

Absolutely. JNT’s era was hated at the time. But now, lots of people love it.

JNT was the producer from S19 right up to s26?

Season 18 to 26 actually.

And he’d been a production unit manager for a while before that.

You could go further back, this sort of division was basically invented by the UNIT era.

Unless of course, you’re Grant Morrison, who has hated the show since Hartnell regenerated.
