I’m really into politics, I think most Gallifrey fans are, and its one of the huge reasons I resonate with it so much and love it!

honestly the only reason i wanted to try it cause I like gallifrey as a planet and i was so happy when we got eps like end of time and day of the doctor where they do gallifrey stuff which made me happy,but from what i gather this isnt that at all and is gallifrey during the classic era,let me make a deal,ill finish this first set and if i dont like it ill quit,that sound good?

it does have like a lot of interesting lore on gallifrey and the time lords I find but it very much builds on the information from the classic era and wilderness years, yes. given that it started in 2004 and they didn’t have the rights to use the time war for a long time, it couldn’t have done anything different in that regard either. it might incorporate some newer stuff in the later releases, but I haven’t listened to those yet so I can’t say [1]. obviously it, like everything, is not for everyone, so don’t force yourself if you don’t like it, that never helps. but if you want to, I think doing the first set and then seeing whether you feel like continuing is a very good idea. and you can always come back to it later if you stop too!
also I don’t think you came off as mean or anything, we just love this series very very much and are accordingly enthusiastic about it
five days until I can start on time war guys I am dying of anticipation here ↩︎

Perhaps, if the Time War stuff interests you more you may have a better time jumping into the series there. It serves as a bit of a soft reset, so you’d be able to follow it. But if you don’t like it, you don’t have to force yourself - there’s enough Who to go round

As sircarolyn says, Gallifrey is a political series. It’s a lot of people talking but the talking is the draw because it’s about the way politicians like Romana, Darkel and Brax use words to advance their ambitions. Leela and Narvin are the ‘lesser’ mortals who have to deal with the consequences of those machinations. There is action in later episodes but the focus is very much on politics. There’s an episode, I can’t remember which one, where I commented that it was basically just a series of two-hander scenes but every one of the scenes was a banger.

In fact, she has two sisters. But that hardly matters in the Gallifrey series. she has a lovely (?) story with the family after departing with the Doctor in her own boxset. Definitly check that out
