Review of Doctor Who

Doctor Who (2023– )
4/10
Looks like they dredged the bottom of the barrel for the story writers
11 May 2024
I've just watched the first two episodes of the newest Dr Who and as I feared, the latest Dr Who is following the suit of the previous Dr Who's of recent years, where the episodes and storylines are progressively getting more and more ridiculous.

I appreciate that Dr Who is totally fictional with outlandish stories about space, aliens and the inexplicable. But these latest shows are getting more and more ridiculous and stupid, too stupid in fact, to watch.

The shows writers seem desperate to write something which is entertaining and seem to be writing for a childrens show, rather than writing in the vain of the previous writers, who created interesting story lines and characters.

The actors do a great job with the scripts which they are given and try their hardest to make each episode as entertaining as possible.

While Ncuti Gatawa has proved himself as a good actor in various different roles and I think would make for a really good Dr Who, he would do a lot better with decent scripts and storylines, but unfortunately, I can't see him getting them with these writers.

Dr Who has progressively worsened over the years and if this vein of writing and storylines continues, I can see Dr Who being a thing of the past.
