i found this season really boring, it's disappointing because I really wanted to like it ... 😛

 

to be fair though i didn't like the capaldi doctor till the last season

Yeah I think it's got better, it started off poor. The recent episodes like the Witch Finder episode and the Rosa Parks episode was good.

The finale was good. I liked it a lot. I think the new writers are beginning to find their way.

 

I still want to know about the man with the "RGB" initials bag.

 

Love Jodie as the doctor. She is just great! Love her!

I saw her first! 😛

It doesn't work like that. You're thinking linear again!

 

You assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a nonlinear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey stuff.

Finally got around to watching a few episodes, and so far I'm not impressed. Jodie seems to be channeling both the OTT juvenile antics of Smith and the blandness of Davision. Since they're my least favorite Doctors, that's not helping to win me over. She's a competent actress, but the direction they've taken the character just doesn't work for me. The companions, well Graham is mildly interesting but nowhere near enough to carry the show like Rory did for me during the Matt years. So pretty much all the same problems as the last few seasons, only now the Doctor has bewbs, which is apparently supposed to magically erase all the problems? 🙄

 

And the writing has not improved in general. I'll give it at least another episode or two, but from what I've read, it doesn't get better.

Overnight ratings of 5.15 million in the UK the train has really left the track however Steven Moffat must be feeling pretty good as his I-Dalek from the Matt Smith era is no longer the stupidest looking Dalek in Dr Who history

Doctor Who: Spyfall Part One (season premiere), BBC America, 8 PM

 

Starting up again tomorrow!

 

Can't Wait!

Is it the start of a new season? I thought it was just a new years special...

 

Anyway, I'll watch but I'm not all that excited.  Last season didn't do much for me & the new Doc is kinda meh. I miss Capaldi.

I think we all miss Tennant.

 

But time continues to move on, and waits for no man ... and now no woman either.

 

It's still Doctor Who. I'm still excited for more Doctor.

 

The first season of the new Doctor wasn't perfect, but to be expected with new writers. I have hope that the next one will be much better.

So no one else watching this season but me?

 

Spoiler

I'm not sure I buy any of this so far. The Master did say that everything The Doctor knows is a lie. Now the new, alternate, unknown history?!

 

The Master isn't know for telling the truth. I bet The Doctor is currently hooked up to a virtual reality thing and none of this is actually happening.

 

Maybe none of this season...

So, rumour has it that this NEW female Doctor is definitely the Doctor and that they MIGHT be intended to present her as the Doctor's original form.  If they do that, and completely retcon everything we know of Who, then I'm done with this show,.

 

Leave Hartnell's legacy alone you jerks!

Didn't they show the doctor as a child once and he was a boy though.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      How backwards can you have it? Yes, Linux was gaining because of Linux handhelds and the push for gaming compatibility, but that's not desktop users, it barely converts anyone who owns a SteamDeck, though it helps for those who wanted to do it, but anyways, the AI+RAM debacle helped Linux because people can't easily upgrade their PCs easily and many hate AI so they'd be incentivized to try Linux.

      Dude, it's a .reg away from a permanent modification. If you're a power user, look it up and keep the .reg and stop being a crybaby expecting MS to include customization for everything on a generalist OS. The default is what's the best UX for the majority of the userbase, non techie people.

      Logitech MX Creative Console is down to the lowest price by Taras Buria Having a Stream Deck-like device next to your keyboard could be a massive productivity boost. It lets you map specific actions and shortcuts to speed things up, and Logitech has such a device for you with a big 20% discount. Right now, you can save $40 on the Logitech MX Creative Console. The MX Creative Console is an unconventional accessory that consists of two modules. One module has nine customizable buttons, with each having a built-in display for mapping. You can assign apps, shortcuts, actions, or something else. There are nine buttons, plus two more for switching between "pages" of actions. The second module has no displays. Instead, there is a big twisting knob and a small roller for precise adjustments in creative apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity, and more. There are four additional buttons as well. The MX Creative Console is available in two colors: Graphite and Pale Gray. Both are now 20% off, saving you $40. Just keep in mind that the MX Creative Console requires the Logitech Options+ app, which is only available on Windows and macOS. By the way, each unit comes with three months of Adobe Creative Cloud.
