Doctor Who

Deleted user

I have loved Doctor Who.  The old episodes and the newish ones. 

But I am not a fan of the new series. I have no problem, NO problem with a female Doctor. But the new series is not great. The Rosa Parks and Partition episodes were ok.

Weirdly, if you take the sci-fi out if those episodes and with a little tinkering, they would have been VERY FINE stand alone dramas.

However, it’s all a bit bland.  Is it the writing? Is it too much change? Should we have had more familiar aliens ie Daleks etc to ground the new Doctor in? More peril? Is it too real? Too educational l (one episode the phrase “remember you NVQ Pensive), too many companions? One surely is enough.

At the moment from episode 1, it has lost around 3 million viewers. 

So what do you like? What do you dislike? What could be done better?

    By the way, I read a great comment by someone on youtube about dw. The Doctor should be like you eccentric Uncle or Aunt who takes you on dangerous adventures. 

    Another said you can play the Doctor in two ways: a strict Headmaster or the socratic method. Playing the idiot but really knowing whats going on and letting the companions come to there own conclusion.
