    I don’t see people defending the newer shows by saying the writing is great or the plot tight. I just see arguments about politics and social messages.

      The show turned to shit many years ago, way before any wokeness. There’s nothing to defend.

        The corporations are just using the culture war to deflect any criticism against the bad product they made. Like criticize the new Assasins Creed or Snow White and people, especially the gauche caviar press, will call you a racist, even when you weren’t even criticizing the “wokeness”

        this is what doctor who does. Just like in the 80s. It has it’s ups and down, but its always changing. That’s what makes it special. The doctor regenerates, the show-runner changes and the show moves on. It’s not like the other shows that just get cancelled. It’s doctor who. It’s the longest running sci-fi show in the world.

          I look forward to future Dr Whos.

          I’ve been watching that show for decades, and I have seen the ups and downs.

          This cycle of shoddy work is unique because of the era. But if there is any luck I hope to see better dr who later, followed by something equally bad but different.
