    I think both Series 6 and 7 suck but in different ways. One was a messy over-arching plot that had barely any time to breathe, and the other was a horrible way to introduce a great companion then scrap her and ultimately focus on a far less interesting version of the character that eventually became insufferable.
    Day of the Doctor is disappointing.
    Also, thoughts on the Classic series?

      You see, I like what they did with Clara in season’s 8 and 9. It is something that could only really be done once. But I definitely get why people found her insufferable in the end. And I’ve barely watched it. Only story I’ve seen is Genesis of the Daleks. It’s just such a different show that to watch it would be a very different experience. But ever since Saturday’s episode. I will be goon back to see that story.

    I want to hear your opinion on Capildi-era of the show

    • @Smabbott
      @Smabbott  3 месяца назад +1

      When I watched it during the time it aired, I wasn’t sold at all. It feels like an era that gets better the more you age. The amount of character work is unprecedented in modern Who. The fact that s9 has an entire finale dedicated to nothing but character is insane. It’s got some stinkers here and there. But there is not a doubt in my mind, Capaldi was the greatest actor to play the Doctor. He wasn’t my favourite. But he was brilliant.

      ​@@Smabbott Yeah, true. Throughout the fandom Capildi-era is getting more praise nowadays, I didn't watch it on original airing but having watched it recently, it's an era where imo Moffat set out to fix the problems from Smith's run by having the Doctor constantly grow and change and having companions who call him out on his behaviour

      @@Knighttt662 Moffat definitely ditched the fairytale structure for Capaldi and it’s better for it. Everything feels more natural in terms of character progression and actions. It’s just a shame that not a lot of people watched it. My theory is that they were burnt out from Smith’s era more than anything. But I could be wrong.

      @@Knighttt662 yeah s7 just feels like Doctor Who. It’s not great Doctor Who, but it’s a nice season to go back to. However, it does make the ending come out of nowhere as if it’s suited for another season. But it’s still just fun.

    Hope you talk about Doctor Who more! I started really as a fan of the show with Smiths first episode and got more into the series post his regeneration and initially seeing your video pop up in my recommendations was curious about why you might think his run was overall lacking. But watching the video you put words to a lot of gut feelings I have had about Smiths run as an older fan 10 years on and I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts and analysis. So wonderful video and please keep up the great work!

      Thank you, that means so much! Glad you enjoyed. And who knows I might. I never know what to do a vid on. It’s whatever I’m feeling strongly about, which if you look at how random my channel is, you can tell that😂 but seriously thank you! Yeah I love doctor who too. Genuinely think it’s one of the best shows ever made.
