    It’s fun watching people react to this season, because to me it seems like a classic textbook RTD bit of Doctor Who:

    • Veers wildly between episodes that are almost unwatchable and some of the best episodes the show has ever had.
    • Is absolutely bonkers throughout.
    • Gay as all hell and completely unapolagetic about it.
    • Finale that writes itself into an awkward spot, then handwaves a bunch of stuff away and hits the Big Reset ButtonTM.
    • Creates more David Tennants.
    • Digs up a 50+ year old villain that nobody was thinking about for purely RTD reasons.
    • Villain hiding behind an anagram, also for RTD reasons.

    It’s everything I’d hoped it would be lol

    I’ve read that article and I don’t see anything that could be considered hilarious. Imagine spending 3 or 4 years at University studying journalism or media studies to end up spending 5 minutes of a Saturday trawling the cesspit of xitter to cobble together 250 words of dross based on the ramblings of vacuous attention seekers.

    It was great, the reveal leaves a bunch of loose ends though. I wonder if that is by design, it might pop up in the next season.

          I definetely think thas these resolutions are pranks before the next season. The Trixter did this.

    Ruby’s whole schtick sounds exactly like something a god of stories would make up
