Topic	Jodie Whittaker deserved better writers for Doctor Who potential spoilers
TomClark 01/24/23 9:53:03 AM #38:	Trelve posted... I'd say these are the best Whittaker-era episodes. (having said that, for any other doctor these would be mid-tier at best): The Woman Who Fell to Earth Kerblam Spyfall Fugitive of the Judoon The Haunting of Villa Diodati Village of the Angels The Power of the Doctor This is a fair list (though I'd add Eve of The Daleks - I'd put that at least on the same "it's lightweight shallow fun" level as most of RTD's festive outings). The Power Of The Doctor, though, I would class as genuinely excellent. Does it make much sense? Probably not. Does it completely sack off all of the ongoing plot threads to leave them (presumably permanently) unresolved? Absolutely. Is it coasting by on nostalgia for the classic era? In the most shameless way possible! But I enjoyed it more than any episode since Day of The Doctor, almost because of rather than in spite of those criticisms. It was fun, it was nostalgic, and ~~Ace smacked up a Dalek with a baseball bat again while Five said "Brave Heart" to Tegan.~~ And I loved it. --- http://i.imgur.com/6eF0W.gif <cite>TomClark posted [p:971059691] in Jodie Whit...
