WHAT? WHAT? WHAT? "America doesn't have charity shops"? WHERE did you hear this complete load of 💩?! I've got 5 or more in less than a mile from my house! Some are religious or the same you have, like Salvation Army, St.Vincent DePaul & Catholic Charities. Others are community-oriented, like Goodwill, or Veteran-oriented, like D.A.V., or even a combo of for-profit & charity-ish, like Savers! (yes, the punctuation is part of their official name), which benefits Boys & Girl Scouts (aka Girl Guides; I forget what the UK name is for Cub Scouts/Boy Scouts). In fact, if not for charity shops, most early DW fan costumes wouldn't have existed. In fact, fan films that utilized original characters of The Doctor in US fan films routinely contained scenes of them getting their look from a charity shop, many times as a promotional trade for the shop's assistance in making the film by supplying everything from costumes, props, set decorations (or entire sets/shooting locations) and, in at least one instance that I know of, the video camera used to shoot the fan film itself! I know what you mean about the 80's gatekeeper intelligence, particularly amongst the US fans of that era who mistakenly believe themselves to be the official "original fans" in the country. That would actually be MY group, the ones who got to see a package made up of the early Jon Pertwee/UNIT serials, sans Spearhead From Space, that ended just before The Three Doctors 10th Anniversary special. As both of those serials referenced previous Doctors, it was thought the rest of the serials could make up a series that could more easily stand on their own and were sold alongside the original US syndication run of other BBC programs for the fledgling network, including Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Goodies, Upstairs/Downstairs, I,Claudius and other UK programs that helped shape the image of US's first (and, so far, only) public television broadcaster. PBS tried to emulate the BBC as much as they possibly could, particularly with their news coverage, an image they continue to try and maintain to this day, regardless of what individual opinions their viewers might have of their foreign counterparts or their native network levels of coverage and/or biases. Wandering a little further into the weeds here, PBS of that period had a much more independent attitude and for some reason were given a high degree of latitude regarding what they put on the air. They were sort of purists and amazingly, they got away with it. They wouldn't censor news footage or any television programs or films they aired. This was interesting because some of that programming seriously crossed the line of what was considered acceptable for broadcast then and now. Much of that BBC content contained swearing and nudity, content that went out untouched back then. whether that was because they were just not notified (or at least they could claim they were unaware of) potentially offending content, they'd get the benefit of the doubt. It should be noted that the complaints about a National Public Radio affiliate running George Carlin's Words You Can't Say on Television unedited was in 1972 while Python began airing on local PBS affiliates in 1974. Because of the immense popularity of Flying Circus and the not-inconsiderable amount of pledge fund money the series generated, my local PBS affiliate, KDIN, aired an unedited print of Monty Python and the Holy Grail in late 1975/early 1976. KDIN in Des Moines, Iowa, was (and still is) the flagship station for the Iowa Public Broadcasting Network so this didn't just run in one city in the Midwest, it was simulcast across the entire State of Iowa as part of the network's regular financial pledge drive. Holy Grail proved to be so popular that a pledge drive goal was set that would guarantee a second airing of the film was reached within minutes of being announced. To my knowledge, the broadcasts generated no complaints to the FCC, despite documented incidents of children below the age of 16 viewing the film, like the series that spawned it. As many as 15 of those children were in my bedroom for both broadcasts of the film. I mention this because now, the network is so neutered that they not only censor every little "shit" or "piss" that might be uttered in dialogue but they oftentimes blur nudity in paintings in the background that's so visually jarring that it's hard to pay attention to what's going on. Worse yet, if you pay them to be able to access their programming library online, a truly inexpensive fee that would be the best deal in online streaming if not for the fact they censor that content as well. I mean, couldn't you at least give us an option? They have a PBS Kids section so I would assume they believe that the adult programming is being viewed by, well, ADULTS. There's also an incorrect narrative that the Pertwee series of Doctor Who wasn't well received in the US and that it was only the act of the Gods on high bestowing the holy Tom Baker series in its place that saw the dawn of the true fans. This, of course, is complete bollocks. In Iowa, the Pertwee package of episodes ran 6 times/week. It had a daily slot Monday-Friday that was very popular as well an additional slot on Wednesdays. The Wednesday timeslot was its original original home where it ran as part of a 5-day rotation of foreign half hour programs. Most of these were comedies and included the original location for Monty Python's Flying Circus, The Goodies, The Paul Hogan Show from Australia (a series that pre-dates Crocodile Dundee by at least a decade and seriously deserves some KZitem attention). Flying Circus, Doctor Who & The Goodies were all promoted to Mon-Fri stripped timeslots but also continued to occupy their original weekly time slots, all three series continuing to run in apparent broadcast order, which contradicts the information presented. In the case of Doctor Who, this resulted in occasions where the earlier Wednesday episode would be the episode previous to the M-F daily episode running later in the evening. Other dates would see the same episode running in both slots or the two Wednesday episodes running in the reverse order. It continued to run this way until it disappeared one night in the cold darkness without warning or explanation. It was with the same amount of advanced announcement that saw Doctor Who suddenly appear back on the schedule, right back in its old daily timeslot. We were really excited and hoped that we'd not only see the return of favorite episode but that we'd see new stories of our fancy-dressed alien scientist and his daft girl companion. Imagine how we felt when the titles ran and the first thing we got to see was the Doctor die for some reason, to be replaced with whatever the hell this guy was supposed to be. I was on the phone the next day with the station, trying to find out what the hell was going on here. The station had no clue. As a kind of apology, the station sent me the entire media kit and sales information Time-Life had sent them. I still have it. The sales brochure had phone numbers for people at Time-Life so I started making phone calls. This was the start of a telephone adventure that would see me running up my parent's with calls all over the country, then to England, where I wound up speaking with Graham Williams, Douglas Adams, and several people who were fans then and run the series now in various capacities. This post has gone on far too long and I'm not even sure what the original point I was going to make before I got swallowed by the weeds, far more than knee-deep in the Who-plah. So I'm just gonna end it and leave this here for anyone whose interested. Thank you and goodnight. KJB

The one thing I disliked about some of Jodies episodes was: She wouldn't walk into a room and just take charge like the previous Doctors. She had to work to get people to listen to her. Now I know that was a choice to show how us women need to work to get recognition etc etc, but I felt the Doctor should be above that. There's literally a scene in Silence in the Library. The doctor has known these people for minutes. He then tells someone to do something. The guy starts doing it. Some else asks "what're you doing that for?" " cos he told me to" the Doctor remarks " spooky isn't it? ". That just sums the doctors ability to control whole rooms of people. That was really my only big problem with Jodies era. Did it completely ruin my enjoyment of it? No. I still had fun watching it, and that's what it's all about in the end.

i definitely get why you can see that as a deterrent to enjoying the era as a whole, but i also feel like you hit the nail on the head with the "that was a choice to show how us women need to work to get recognition" comment. as long as the doctor sticks around earth, especially in historical settings, its gonna be way less likely for people to see her as The Leader in a situation. shes a bubbly yet socially awkward blonde woman, while Ten was a tall, british (estuary accent to be specific) man who could demand a room with his frequent arrogance (no hate). It seems like a very natural process for both individually, and it makes me appreciate the episodes where she does have that leadership role immediately more satisfactory (TWWFTE, It Takes You Away, Eve of the Daleks)

Has it been perfect? No, not at all, but I've never come out of an episode saying "well that was a waste of time" Honestly watching it all has been amazing, and nearing Jodie, I'm getting quite exited, and of course once I finish nuwho, I will watch as much of Classic as I can get in my hands.

Honestly Donna and ten are siblings, and the tragedy of Donna being forced to forget everything in my opinion is far more tragic than the separation between the Doctor and Rose.

@@chaostreeorsomething3586She was the first companion of the First New Era (I guess we're starting the Second New Era with Ncuti Gatwa) that wasn't tripping over her panties over the Doctor. It's really weird but my life strangely echoed what was going on with Doctor Who from the first episode of the reboot in 2005. I was going through major trauma that was coupled with severe PTSD so I really understood the Doctor when that series launched. When the regeneration happened, some things had kind of turned for me and I made the mistake of thinking that this traumatic series of events that culminated in a dramatic resolution of sorts was the ending and I'd put everything behind me. But it doesn't work like that. Slowly, the cracks began to show and a bad evening or morning became a bad day which became a bad week...things started to spiral a bit...just like they were for Doctor #10. By the time we reach the end of his run, it's obvious that he's really not okay and neither was I. I won't go through everything but suffice it to say that this continued all the way through Whittaker's run. In many ways, some of it wound up hitting the closest to home. aWith the 60th specials where we get revisit who we thought we were, back when we were 'fixed' so many years ago,. Turns out that some things weren't meant to be 'fixed'; they were meant to be let go of. It was time to let that part of me rest and enjoy a form of retirement. The person I was is still brilliant and shows up from time to time when necessary. But overall, today is for who I am now and that person kicks some serious ass. Wow, sorry for using this as an impromptu therapy session but i think I'll go ahead and leave it over here just in case any random passerby might be able to get something out it.

I think relationships with the doctor, because of his age and the fact that he doesn't look or act that age, are extremely hard to get right without getting creepy. My rule of thumb is, if you could see the characters together even with the 1st incarnation, then it's OK. Rose with William Hartnell would b absolutely disgusting. And that's 10 lifetimes younger! But River and Hartnell? I could absolutely see, I eat that shit up. So River x Doctor is much more entertaining to me. Yaz is interesting, because she discovers her own sexuality through her love for the doctor, and that's something I can really relate to as a lesbian myself. But the Doctor loving Yaz back feels wrong. William Hartnell being in love with Yaz would be really creepy.

funny enough, Gold's Cyberman leitmotif sounds like it could have been derived from the beginning of their theme in "The Tenth Planet." but yeah, more musical continuity would be great across the board. e.g. Akinola's Cyberman theme felt like just a backing. Obviously that was setup for the cybermasters scene, which was (musically) incredible. But before then, it would've been so easy to incorporate the Gold or Revenge theme as the melody.

TBH, my expectation is I'll still be loving it as unintentional comedy for it's charmingly bizarre character dialogue and characterization as I do with early 80's Who. Because as someone relatively immune to the bandwagon effect, and someone who has been kinda shit on for daring to compare Whitaker and Davison... The early JNT and Chibnall eras are pretty much the same take on the show, and those two Doctors are very much the same characterization. Questionable moral choices and all... The Fam is very similar to Nyssa Tegan and Adric... You have the one that kinda fades into the background despite having massive dramatic potential (Nyssa and Ryan) the character that is often used comically but has a twinge of tragedy (Adric and Graham), and the relatively grounded one (Tegan and Yaz)... None of which are characterized very well in series... Big Finish audios for 13 are gonna be so cathartic for patching that up... Both eras of the show got increasingly dependant on treating the fans for quick ratings boosts every season often leading to bad stories (Arc of Infinity, Warriors of the Deep, The Timeless Children, Revolution of the Daleks, etc) And as specific as it is, the show creating a giant spectacle drama where half the universe gets irreversably destroyed and despite that not following up on the consequences in any meaningful way... (Logopolis and Flux, and I'm willing to bet if the episode count hadn't been lowered it would have been Dhawan's master doing the "people of the universe" quote...) I think both of these eras are bad in some pretty notable ways... I also think time heals all wounds and both of them are unintentionally hillarious with the occasional spots of brilliance. And some people seem to genuinely think the Fifth Doctor's era is great, so maybe 13 will be highly regarded...

What a great video! I feel this way a lot too! Like I stopped watching Doctor Who during Matt Smith. And I started up again last year and when I got to Peter Capaldi, I was like oh my God I love him. Why did young me deny me such great doctor who! Sometimes all the fan stuff makes me feel like I’m missing something. But if missing something allows me to have a good time with a show that I like it’s fine with me

Haven’t finished the video yet, just gotten to where you start talking about The Timeless Child, but I just wanted to say something about that. I don’t think it’s a big deal. I think it’s perfectly fine. I like the idea behind it, and I think it actually helps broaden the mystery of the Doctor and give the show more room to grow. What didn’t we know about the Doctor before TTC? Quite a lot! What don’t we know about the Doctor after TTC? Well, we know that the Doctor was adopted by Tecteun, who performed experiments, and that the Doctor was part of a special force called Division, and beyond that, there’s quite a lot we still don’t know, and I would argue, there’s even MORE room for what we don’t know. We don’t know exactly what happened in Division, or before that, or even what may have happened between that and An Unearthly Child. It gives more room for future writers to have blanks that they can fill in.

I don't think American's have a problem with the accents. I didn't watch it myself, but Jodie was on Broadchurch, which was very popular in the US. It even won at American award shows. Believe me, we get plenty of British TV here and different British accents and I don't see that as being a reason people hated 13. Honestly, from what I see from the fans that hate 13, it's because the doctor was a woman. It's really that clear and if you read comments on Dr. Who videos you will always come across, "the show went downhill when they made the doctor a chick." Stupid as hell, but I think that's really the biggest reason for all the hate. As for charity shops, many have already pointed out that we have plenty of them in the US. We just don't call them charity shops. Honestly "Goodwill," while the name of an actual chain of charity shops, is what my family has used to describe any kind of charity shop. There are places like Savers, the Salvation Army, and then local shops that are unique to each town/city. My whole childhood was spent getting clothes from charity shops in the US, but not once did anyone ever call them charity shops even though most of them are actual registered charities. Loved the video and looking forward to watching more from you!

For me, being from Yorkshire, the characters being from Yorkshire and episodes being set here was one of my favourite parts of the Chibnall era. The same with the Flux episodes set in Liverpool. It was nice to see Doctor Who in the North, made the characters more relatable to me. I never even considered that the accents could be a barrier, as compared to most people I know, the accents are not that thick 😂

I wanna point out at around 44:00 you talk about the whole ‘lonely god’ thing compared to the timeless child. While that is a valid point I think the reason why myself and so many others take issue with it is because it feels as though the Doctor earned that title after hundreds of thousands of years, he became quite literally a living legend. The impact of him going from bashing a cave mans head in to cherishing all life and actively seeking out danger to ‘play his role’ feels so less inspiring if he was just born into being ‘the main character’.

I'll admit, I used to be one of those who didn't like Capaldi's era at first. But when it came to his last series my opinion changed. I've also been rewatching his era and my opinions on a lot of his episodes have changed for the better. I realised that he may not be my favourite Doctor but his era had a good arc. I felt similar with Smith during his first two series but warmed to him during his final series. Although that was due to me having a strong empathy for 10 and David's departure hit me hard. So when it came to Jodie's era I wanted to go in optimistic. I didn't want to give in to new showrunner/Doctor bias. I gave her first outing a go. It was okay, the writing clearly was the main issue. There are a few gems of episodes in her era, Haunting of Villa Diodati (hope I spelt that right) is the highlight for me. I will concede Jodie's era did have great VFX, possibly the best we've had so far. I just wished the writing was better. Going into Ncuti's era I was elated at RTD's return and despite Tennant's caretaker Doctor I was more excited to see Ncuti's debut and so far I've not been disappointed. Doctor Who I think is unique in the way a fine whisky is. The more an era matures and enough time passes, it improves in its taste than the newest batch would. I think one of the biggest problems is channels that claim they are fans of the show just to release a video critising literally any bad press, viewing figures, latest released episode or series or comments the showrunners/actors make. Channels that openly spew hate instead of providing proper criticism and scrutiny.

(tl;dr: i used to dunk on chibnall's era, and it wasn't until i repeated what i was saying to other people irl that i re-watched it and formed my own opinions. bandwagoning is bad folks, don't do it.) i gotta be honest... i came around on the chibnall era. i watched series 11 and 12 initially all at once, then immediately after i watched "the fall of doctor who". i thought there was some good points in there, but didn't completely agree with everything said (and there was quite a bit of "this video sucks" from people who haven't watched it, which is always terrible). i didn't realize how much i had let it color my opinions on this era of the show until i tried to talk to my friends about the timeless child reveal. look, i don't like the timeless child because it gives me 'chosen one' vibes from the dominance of mid young adult novels trying to be the next hunger games or divergent - i don't even *like* divergent, but the amount of books trying to be divergent felt never-ending. that's it! it's just that, and i'm pretty sure that's a me problem anyway. but the amount of people saying it "ruined" doctor who is ridiculous. this show is 60 years strong, nothing like a minorly mishandled reveal is gonna stop it. if that was all it took, it would've died out in the 60s. but that's what i told people online. that's what i told my friends; that it ruined it. they weren't doctor who fans - that is gonna color their experience of watching it for the first time, if they ever decide to. so i was like "wtf just came outta my mouth?" i examined that feeling, i rewatched the episodes, and honestly? truthfully? it's good! series 11 is good. i don't like rosa because it goes with the lie that all she contributed to the civil rights movement was refusing to move on that bus, but to be fair, where were they gonna fit that in? another me problem probably. it's good though! and rest of the series is mostly good! series 12 was a little more hit-or-miss with the returning villains (should've stuck to their guns for longer) but its highs are even higher! i love sacha's master so much, you have no idea. that man is genuinely terrifying. i say this as a "missy is my favorite master" fan: i'm glad they brought the master back. series 13 is the greatest car crash i've ever seen. yeah i'm a flux enjoyer now. also this whole era's cinematography is beautiful. i didn't like this era's tardis because despite the wide open space, having to dodge around those giant crystals made it feel claustrophobic to me? i dunno. but every time they have it in a wide shot i'm like "ohh i see the vision". i say all this to say that this era isn't that bad. it's even good! i dream of the day i can say that outside of this comment section and not get dunked on by bots - or even other people who haven't done the work of re-examining it. for doctor who, this bandwagon was particularly bad, but i've been in fandom spaces for a while now, and it's not the worst i've seen. i made the mistake of thinking dw was immune to that sort of mob mentality. i know better now. i do better now. the chibnall era gave that to me. so hey, hate it all you want if you've actually seen it. if you've read all of this then thank you! if you still hate it i can't change your mind. but it's special to me, and it always will be. (edit: misspelled sacha's name, i'm a fake fan /s)

The crazy thing is that Jodie’s run, especially her first season, was probably one of the more conservative leaning seasons. Multiple episodes saying that there’s nothing inherently wrong with “the system”, it just needs a little reform. There’s actually two episodes that I find have similar plots but very different responses; season 4’s Planet of the Ood and season 11’s kerblam episode. In the former, they take a strong stance against the slavery system and end up destroying it, in the latter they end up siding with the system of essential slavery and end up saying “the system is fine, people who are against the system is the problem. The system just needs a little reform”

I think the Chibnall era is the lesser of the three Doctor Who revival era, but a lot of the criticisms against it were overly harsh and incredibly unfair. Talking about Doctor Who became very unenjoyable back then. Also I still think series 11 is one of the better seasons of Doctor Who. Demons of the Punjab is my favorite historical episode, and yet I saw people tear it apart like it was trash. It left an incredibly bitter feeling in me. And contrast that with how people talk about RTD2 era, where people are praising the heck out of them while having a lot of the similar flaws to the bad Chibnall episodes, or having moments that people nitpicked the hell out of in Chibnall era episodes. The thing that really bothers me is just how the standards are being applied so unevenly. Anyways, glad someone talked about this because I genuinely hated the fandom at that point. Regarding Timeless Children, I liked all the ideas of it, it made sense to me and what I knew of the Time Lords (they have always been bad), and recontextualizing the Doctor as an orphan was very interesting to me. I just think the poor execution, along with coupling it with a Cyberman finale made it an especially bad episode. Two finales in one episode, both finales incredibly underserved. And yeah, 10th/Rose dynamic was incredibly obnoxious.

I won’t argue that The Doctor didn’t become a super special God-like being quite early in the show, however I always appreciated the idea that anyone from any background could reach that level by learning and growing through their experiences. Honestly, The Timeless Child doesn’t take that away from the 1st Doctor really thinking about it. I don’t know how else to summarize how I feel except to say that the additional lore feels tacky and unnecessary.

Similarly I recall McGann being liked even while the movie itself was not. There are others I could mention but maybe its a twitter/Tumblr thing? Its certainly true that a lot of the time these people haven't watched it and I do think you give them a little too much credit here - its bad faith, and designed to be bad faith. How could a culture warrior fool be a part of fandom? I don't think 90% of these people ever were, ratings etc are just the excuse for the war. I think you're totally spot on with the music though. If there was one way I'd describe Gold, its the word "manipulative". The guy brings out a full orchestra if someone's shoelaces come undone, telling you how to feel. Its very effective, but I don't care for that personally. In contrast when the music leaves the audience room to breathe and decide for themselves...everything feels flat to many of them?

Ill be honest, I wasn't paying attention to fandom in 2014, but I also didn't like series 8 at the time. Capaldi was just so different than 9, 10, and 11 that I didnt continue to watch after series 8 finished. I am also only now watching the classic series so I had no reference to doctors 1-8 and how they were. I picked up Doctor who again in 2020 when The Timeless Child hate made its way to me. I had no clue what was going on so I started at Series 8 again and watched up to The Woman Who Fell to Earth and got less that 30 minuets in because I was bored. (Also I LOVED the Capaldi era after I finished it. I wasnt and am still not a big fan of Twice Upon a Time, even now having watched all of the First Doctors stories. If anything I like it less because of that) I think it was probably a year later I watched TWWFTE all the way through and then all the way to The Timeless Child. Revolution of the Daleks wasnt available to me (without pirating) at the time and I dont think Flux had started so I stopped until Autumn of 2023 where I caught up again. I didnt hate Whittaker's era, though I do think its boring, but I actually like The Timeless Child and think it opens up a lot of interesting doors. Ive watched everything that has come out up to this point and plan to keep up with the show and in the meantime continue to watch the classic series in full as Im only up to series 9. My hate or dislike was never a bandwagon though. It wasnt until December, when I rewatched the 2005 series from the beginning to series 11 that I actually liked Matt Smiths Doctor, and I remember that while his era was going people were huge fans of him (especially other girls and that confused me lol). Now im just excited to see where the series goes from here and I and I can truly say I love every actors interpretation of the Doctor (that I have seen) even if I dont enjoy all of their episodes

Here's the way i recall seeing the chibnall/whittaker hate train barrel out of the station: Them: the doctor cant be a woman! That will ruin the show! Us: the show's creator Sydney Newman wanted the doctor to change into a woman. Since 1980 everyone involved with making the show has been publicly saying the next doctor could possibly be a woman. Them: I dont have a problem with the doctor being a woman, i just hate them shoving all these sociopolitical messages down our throats! Us: the show (classic & new) has always been political [numerous examples]. The pertwee years were particularly notorious for beating the audience over the head with messages. Them: i dont have a problem with the messages or the female doctor, its just the writing is so bad! That last argument cant really be disputed because its subjective, yet they act like its objective. Its kind of a nebulous rorshach test type of thing. People see what they want to see. And its what they are able to make others see. The original chibnall haters actually hated bc of their sexism and intolerance. Once they learned those werent valid reasons to hate, they made up the seemingly valid reason of "bad writing" and made a bunch of videos and posted a bunch of comments to convince others the writing is "bad" and before long, groupthink settled in. The influencers led the lemmings off the cliff. I remain convinced if more people were more familiar with classic who, and had watched the chibnall era and formed their own opinions without going online to be told what to think, then the chibnall era would be more popular. Perhaps more highly respected than the rtd era. The truth is, every writer/showrunner has their pros and cons, strengths and weaknesses. If a few people devoted a bunch of videos to explaining everything thats bad about rtd, then a lot of people who watch those videos would end up only seeing the bad about rtd and hating every one of his episodes. Then those people would in turn spread their hate with their own videos & comments

I’m incredibly grateful for this video, seeing the double standard where fans rip apart things in the Chibnall era that would have been perfectly fine if they happened the same way under RTD or Moffat makes me want to tear my hair out. I like being able to criticize media I enjoy, and I like having good-faith critical discussions, but it’s immensely evident when someone hates the Chibnall era because they’re misogynistic or “anti-woke”. I’d easily say that Chibnall is my least favorite of the 3 show runners for New Who but the fact people on the hate bandwagon refuse to acknowledge the era has any merit is so, so frustrating.

RTD and Moffat were better. That's simply it, but of course, you have no real argument, and it's evident with people like you who have misogyny of the brain all day long anytime someone doesn't like the shit you do.

I loved Jodie Whitaker's run so much and it broke my heart the hate and reactions. There were always low times, but some of it seemed so insanely dude-bro it just killed me. I like Ncuti, but I haven't stopped missing Jodie yet. Also, we do have a couple of charity shops, there's a chain called Goodwill that hires people with physical difficulties and resales used stuff. I dressed myself and my kids out of that place for years and years, from Texas..

Someone once said to me if you want to be turned off or away from something you love join a club! I get what they meant. Thank you as I am feeling rather special, dare I say smug, as I have watched all DW. I began as a child with Pertwee but over the decades have watched the Hartnell and Throughton stories that were either not lossed or animated. Those still never brought o screen I have read the novelisations on. And you are right. It does give us the right to have a more considered and appreciated opinion. If you want to ask someone about a football match you would ask someone who witnessed all of it and not just the first half. Of course it doesn't mean later fans can't have and express opinions but as I get older I realise more and more than lived experience can never be replaced. So we are the lucky ones. I have tried on occasions to get younger viewers to understand why I might be more critical on a certain story or character simply due to that aged experience but they are unble to really comprehend. At that makes sense. The truth is wisdom really does (hopefully) from exprience and the passage of time. It provides greater knowkedge of what has been, is, and predict what is to come. You can't expect a 5 year old to understand concepts of a twenty-five year old nor equally a 25 year old with that of a sixty year person. That is just lived experience. As always with everything in life, exceptions exist amd nothing is a complete science.Too much waffle so I'll stop there. Cheerio.

Great video, perfectly describes my experience interacting with the fandom. I was one of those people who uncritically took the fandoms opinions as their own for the whittaker era (and to a lesser extent capaldi but thats mostly because I only started interacting with the fandom properly part way through series 9 which for reference I would have been 13 at the time). I remember after any episode of series 12 aired going straight onto the internet to read what other people thought and that being the basis of my opinion and not the episode I just watched because whenever i decided i liked an episode and realised the next day nobody else did it felt like my opinion was wrong in a way. I didn't really have a great ability to realise why I liked or didn't like something and then I'd go online and see all these really articulate points about why it was bad and felt like I had to agree because I was not great at critically thinking about whether or not I agreed. It was very hard to recognise within myself because my opinions on episodes pre getting into the fandom were wholey my own and didn't change from knowing other peoples opinions (or at least would change back very quickly) thanks to years of watching and rewatching, "Love and Monsters is my favourite episode" was a thing I had been saying for years before I learnt people really don't like it, other peoples opinions on older episodes did what I tihnk the goal should be when reading them, they offered a different perspective that let me see understand why other people like or dislike something when I feel differently. It got to the point where I would start watching for episodes expecting to dislike it, to the point I wouldn't let myself like it. I was watching episodes almost trying to spot the thing everyone would complain about so I wouldn't accidentally enjoy something, that my opinion would be correct the first time and I wouldn't have to readjust I started to realise what I was doing around the time series 13 started, that a lot of my opinions, not just my ones on doctor who were mostly parrating things I had heard other people say, and I did not like that about myself. By that point it was sort of too late for flux (and really the rest of the era), I had an extremely negative bias going in, but at least I was aware of that bias, and at least I had figured out I needed if not a concrete opinion of an episode, and idea of what I thought. I did not end up liking flux, and like I said it was too late by that point, I was never going to get there, but I liked parts, even whole episodes. The specials were similar (or at least eve of the daleks and power of the doctor, legend of the sea devils was awful), I actually liked them, I knew I had a positive opinion and wasn't swayed by people complaining about dalek aim like I would have been before, I still thought they weren't great, but I thought they were good by Chibnall standards (which was dumb in its own way but better) I remember trying to watch through the era before power of the doctor and I could not do it, every time I left an episode thinking, "thats overhated I kind of liked it", it felt like my opinions were wrong all over again, by the time I realised I actually liked Ryan I had to stop I could not do it because everyone hates him so much. I could accept that I liked him and seemingly nobody else did, and I could accept that I liked the first half of series 11 and nobody else seemed to, but the idea that I could disagree on even one more episode would have wrapped around to me feeling like I was wrong and watching it wrong, and whatever else. Its really only recently that I've been able to go back and actually watch the episodes to form my own opinion, I got up to it takes you away just today (to be fair I probably could have been able to sooner but I was approaching a rewatch naturally as part of a rewatch of all of nuwho anyway). Watching through fresh eyes has been good, I can say I think the ghost monument is pretty boring but the final few minutes where they find the tardis is so good it propels the rest of the episode into being pretty good overall, I like it takes you away now, rosa is a bit heavy handed in places but you barely notice because its well made and well told, arachnids in the uk is bad but only really once everyone is at the hotel, the tsuranga conundrum has too many characters but thats the only significant problem with it. finally with the 60th I feel like my opinions are my own again. everyone was very positive about all three, at least from what I saw and had shifted more negative since, I thought the star beast was middling, wild blue yonder was pretty incredible, and I did not like the giggle, which was not really what i saw from other people, and realising I disagreed with what I saw as the dominant opinion felt great. I tihnk thats what happens a lot when people reappraise their opinions, because when you rewatch something with a bit of distance and less conversation around it bombarding you with what everyone else thinks before you've thought for yourself you have to form your own opinion, or at least add nuance to it. I don't think its necessarily something people notice themselves doing, either taking the common opinion as theor own or realising their opinion changes because it was never really their own. The thing that really made me realise was my mum also going into episodes expecting not to like them, which I found very jarring, because I have been watching doctor who with her as it comes out for as long as I can remember, and before the chibnall era I had never heard her think the show was just bad now. It was like a massive flashing sign telling me that chibnall hate had reached such a fever pitch and such a prevelance that it had reached her, and it made me realise what it had done to me.

At Three years old, a Saturday Morning, 1980, after cartoons went off on Channel 13 PBS, I saw the first Episodes of Tom Baker and Blake 7, and at Three I knew this being who said he was an alien, had powers of telepathy and technology humanity would never be able to have and senses beyond mortal man, yet appeared as normal in appearance yet so much more,he had a living temperamental ship that occasionally had more common sense than most in these dangerous concepts. This was beyond the original star trek and star Wars, for nothing was safe and usually him and companions vs extinction I also was pleased to catch all the uncanny X-Men and Excalibur and Alan Moore works that referenced Doctor Who. Even there most don't realize Saturnyne from Marvel is a Doctor Who analogue

I'm a very new Doctor Who fan, I haven't seen the classic series yet, but I caught up on the modern show in time to view the latest David Tennant specials and Christmas special as they came out. I own season 1 through 13 of the "new" show on DVD, my favorite era was definitely Russel T Davies, Matt Smith never quite clicked with me though I did like him in the part. I really liked Peter Capaldi but I will concede that a lot of his episodes were hit or miss. But Capaldi was so good in the role that I feel like he carried some of the worse episodes. I'd head for years about the Jodie Whittaker/Chibnall era, but I was determined to see it for myself. I was pleasantly surprised. It seemed clear to me that the people calling it woke hadn't seen the Capaldi era because it was pretty similar in that way. I thought season 11 was solid enough, I really liked season 12 though I have mixed feelings about how it effects the cannon (but it's not really a big deal. I thought Sacha Dhawan was great as the master. Season 13 really suffered from being made during caronavirus restrictions and wasn't very coherent in my opinion. I thought Jodie Whittaker's sendoff special was pretty good though. I actually disliked the return of Russell T Davies more than the Chibnall era so far. I thought the star beast was ok, but it could have been much better if it didn't get so bogged down on trying to upset people who didn't like the Chibnall era and I thought it really undermined one of my favorite Doctor Who arks. I was fine with them writing in a way for Donna to keep her memory but the fact it boiled down to "a male presenting timelord is too stupid and or ignorant to just let the energy go" was really unsatisfying. The wild blue yonder was good. I hated the toymaker episode, I thought Neal Patrick Harris was insufferable in the role. Bigeneration was a really odd choice imo, and if we never see the 10th/14th doctor again than idk what the point was (besides giving a version of the doctor a "happily ever after" sendoff). The church on ruby road didn't win me over. I'll keep watching and I'm sure it'll find its footing. I do prefer the generally more grounded camerawork of the first 4 seasons to the more cinematic look now, there's a charm to it and when done right it still hold up.

For me I think it's mainly the performances of the main cast. As you mentioned every series of Doctor Who has had it's fair share of bad scripts, some more than others. But usually whoever is cast as the Doctor/Companion at the time, can just carry that bad script to a degree and I can still enjoy there performance, even in a script that's not great. Jodie as the Doctor just never worked for me. Hard to pinpoint exactly why and it's going to feel like a cop out answer but she doesn't feel very "Doctory" to me lmao. Not a fan of the way she delivers most of her dialogue and I think the exact same scripts, with someone else in the lead could of been much better. As for companions, I think this without a doubt is the weakest of the NewWho era. Ryan and Yas to me are straight terrible outside of maybe a few moments here or there. Graham for me like most people is my favourite and in large part I feel he just stands out in comparison to Ryan and Yas, because Bradley Walsh can act. It feels like he's actually trying. Long story short, this era for me was the first time in NewWho at least that the cast, was mis cast and I just can't get into the performances, I watched the whole era 3 times between Power of the Doctor and the 60th too and it just didn't connect :( PS. Your content is genuinely fire bro, I disagree with alot of your takes but still love the videos haha!

@CrikeyItsDan I completely agree with what you said about the era. There was just something lacking in Jodie's performance. Like she was lacking a certain gravitas that all the others had when delivering speeches and whatnot. I found it hard to put my finger on what it was, but i never got into the performance. I was disappointed as well. Jodie is from really nearby to me, and I love seeing someone local do good, and was looking forward to her in the role, but just didn't hit. The 3 companions really was too many to have all the time. I think it just gave her even less opportunity to shine, when she was floundering anyway.

Honestly, I'm still not a massive fan of the Capaldi Era. Series 10 is pretty great, but I dropped off hard with series 9 and even 8. Even now a days my Doctor Who marathons tend to slow down here because the episodes don't grip me in the same way Russell era or even Chibnal Era stories do. I think most fans are re-evaluating Capaldi's era because it's not what the show is doing rn and distance is important for these things, Doctor Who fans are incredibly fickle and we struggle to vibe with the current eras

I don't think Series 11 was "looking to good to be Doctor Who". I think it looked good, but to me, it didn't FEEL like Doctor Who. Which is odd considering that Jodie Whitaker was the Doctor immediately in my eyes. But the "not Doctor Who" feel did end by the end of Series 11. I don't think Rosa was bad. I just feel like if you removed the villain from the story, it would change nothing. The villain felt so shoehorned in that I'm not even convinced that the original script had him. Many of the criticisms of the Chibnal Era in my opinion is that many of the stories are good ideas, but I feel like they were executed poorly. They weren't bad, they were just "meh". Simply put, my criticism is lost potential. The music may be what messed with my head. It was beautiful, but it just didn't sound like Doctor Who. But that's not a problem in my opinion. I liked the Chibnal Era.

a 1 hour video from THE dwfan91 about the Doctor Who fandom? *takes a seat and grabs some popcorn* yes please! Also I'm a Pokemon fan and I'm loving the Pokemon music in the background (yes I recognize it, two of my favourite things together: Doctor Who and Pokemon!) And fun fact: The Enemy of the World is my favourite Doctor Who story of all time so it's crazy to me that there was a time when it was hated! And it's really nice to see some proper appreciation for the Chibnall era, much like the Capaldi era I think it will be looked back on more fondly though I'm someone who appreciated it while it was the current era, it's not perfect but no era is, Doctor Who isn't perfect and that's okay! I love it, warts and all and THANK YOU Segun Akinola does not get the appreciation he deserves simply because he's not Murray Gold and that makes me sad, he did a fantastic job with the music and a lot of fans simply won't give him credit and I think that is so unfair. I'm someone who's not super pleased with Murray Gold coming back, Gold is amazing but I'd much rather have had either Segun stay on or a new composer outright (and there's many talented composers out there!), Doctor Who should not rely on one man and I think it'll make it even harder for people to accept something different when Gold eventually moves on again which at some point he most definitely will and that'll also be unfair to the next composer.

I think the problem is the moral inconsistencies, the timeless child being WAY too game changing and confusing, and the weird and bad acting from supporting cast and villains. Also, the closeups start off well done, but as the era goes on, they become overused, even in situations where they add nothing to the scripts. This makes the direction feel off and the audience's proception of space within a scene hazy. I agree it is over hated, but it falls far shorter than any other era does for me.
