There isn't really anything like period jokes--a few gender related cracks are made, but that was all--and there was only one (also justified) episode that tackled the idea of her being at a disadvantage due to physical gender, for socio-cultural reasons. Aside from that, her performance is good, albeit a smidge lacking in moments where we get to say "A-hah! That is the Doctor." Ironically the best moment to that effect is also the one episode that tackled her disadvantage. The companions are mostly good, though Yaz feels like she's just there in every episode but one, but at least she doesn't outright take anything away from any episode or scene she's in. There's no companion romance with the Doctor; just good people traveling together and working off one another's strengths and weaknesses... mostly. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
