Doctor Who (2005–2022)
8/10
Should i be ashamed? No, the writers should.

Seriously. There was so much potential for some new perspectives, and even sources of humor, with a female doctor. There have been a few sporadic moments where the writers have taken advantage of this opportunity. But by and large the writers have made Jodie's tenure incredibly preachy. Nearly every episode's theme is basically human shaming. And it's getting really old. Rosa Parks, an obvious copy of Donald Trump, a pregnant man, a jab at Amazon, witches, leaving a couple people to die in favor of a rant about climate change... with the exceptions of the one about Tesla and Fugitive of the Jadoon, the only interesting episode was the one about the partition of India and Pakistan. i lose interest about 3/4 into every episode. I had high hopes after two consecutive excellent episodes, but now I'm watching a lecture on plastic pollution. Enough already! The writers need to be reminded that their audience consists of GROWN ASS PEOPLE who do not need to be lectured when they are merely trying to enjoy a little entertainment!
