And, for whatever reason, I also stopped during the Matt Smith era.

It's because the writing sucked.

They completely wasted the next Dr (Peter Capaldi) with awful writing and shows. It was just one bad episode after another for the most part. I liked him though and his portrayal.

This is where I sort of am. I liked Matt Smith as the Doctor. I like Peter Capaldi as the Doctor. I don't even entirely mind Jodie Whittaker as the Doctor, though it feels like they handled every aspect of that situation in the worst possible way, ensuring there was going to be backlash.

The real problem is that the writing has been getting progressively worse and worse ever since Steven Moffat took over, and despite a lot of people hoping things would get better after Moffat left, it seems like Chris Chibnall is just making things even worse.

It doesn't matter whether or not I like a given actor as the Doctor, if I don't like any of the stories they're in.

Basically, they took 8 years to utterly kill any interest I once had in a show I'd previously been a fan of for almost 30 years.

At this point, even if they got a new showrunner, a new Doctor, and the scripts radically improved, I doubt I'd even bother trying to get back into it again.
