I actually didn't mind this finale, even if it horribly underused Gallifrey.
The biggest issues were making Rassilion fucking useless, and once again trying to force the opposite gender regeneration crap on us all.

I'd assume anyone/thing else that was both immortal and capable of time travel would choose to go back to an earlier point in time rather than die with the universe and anything immortal that can't time travel is probably watching the stars die from a different location.

Wish we had more gallifrey.

Regenerating into a black woman was stupid.

Clara should have stayed dead. Fuck's sake moffat.

Capaldi was GOAT, though, as ever, and I did love all scenes on Gallifrey excluding the regeneration.

moffat is such a goddamn fanfic tier hack. not only did he create river song (literally in the 90s in his Who fanfics) but now his other super special OC is now immortal and has her own TARDIS.

Moffat, jesus christ.

We should have two showrunners to keep each other's bullshit in check. Moffat was GOAT when he wasn't in charge. now he is just making all his old 90s fanfics canon.

I've got to admit that I was a bit pissed off at how the General's regeneration was handled. Everything about it was written and shot to emphasise how totally progressive they're being. Doctor Who isn't subtle about the SJW stuff at the best of times, but this was the BBC crying out for attention. Tumblr has Doctor Who wrapped around it's little finger, and still they whine about how the show isn't diverse enough.

Except that was a psych out, 'cause it ended up going the opposite way and only the memory of the companion/doctor is gone but not the adventures and the character growth. The plot had nothing in common except the part where someone forgets something. This was to ease pain and avoid becoming self destructive again, not "oh we need a reason to make here leave so lets make her head explode"

This was magnificent. It was perfect. It was mature, intelligent and deeply, utterly emotionally true. What was made to look like a blockbuster finale ended up being a quiet and haunting meditation on the nature of the madman in the box and one of the best episodes in Doctor Who history. Right after another of the best episodes in Doctor Who history of course. I love this show with every cell in my body. Series 9 > any other season of Doctor Who and Doctor Who > anything else.

No, the biggest issue was the lack of follow-up to anything about the hybrid, and how he/it was going to burn Gallifrey, and why the Doctor's confession disc came into play at all this season - the things that would have been the plot in this plotless episode.

Dr Who almost dies in every story. Daleks are about to shoot him, the camera zooms in on his face, za-pa-PEWWWW.

What's wrong with having a second plot armour character? She doesn't even have regeneration powers. She's at more risk than the Doctor is, and he's been going on for 50+ (or 2000+ or 2 bn+) years.

GB is pissed off 'cause Doc shot the General.
"Doctor is now a murderer andshot unarmed man!"
>>
>>63355441

So the prophecy, thought up by real human writers to be a big part of this story, turned out to be practically nothing. Why bother with it then? Just have the Doctor go back to Gallifrey because he's been looking for it, or trapped and brought back because of something that's actually interesting.

It was actually this way in Classic Who. And RTD and Moffat sort of were co-showrunners for the Tennat era. You're right it'd probably be a better way of doing things, but at this rate I don't see Moffat ever letting go of his control of control of the fanfic canonization machine.

Yes, but it didn't have to be a diner

The show isn't actually real. Moffat isn't writing down the history of what happened. "Well, Clara's TARDIS turned into a diner so that's what I have to put in the show."

He decided that a flying diner would be a good idea

I'm kinda satisfied. But All I really wanted was the closest thing to the Doctor declaring war on Gallifrey.

That's what the episode started out as. Until Clara came back into the picture. If the episode was just the Doctor fighting Gallifrey until he realized that it was pointless, then I would've been fully satisfied. That IS what they were hyping Hell Bent to be.

After 10 years, the Time Lords come back as a mere footnote to help the Doctor resurrect his waifu.

And she didn't even become a Time Lady/Hybrid and regenerate so a different actress could play her. GG Moffat.

Few issues I had, but loved it nonetheless.

Blog post of said issues below.

For starters, banishing Rassilon. As >>63352956 said, they made him useless. The next issue was the General. I liked the character, nothing against the black and female regeneration, but I'd have preferred it to happen to a different Time Lord. Did they imply Ohila was his mother or something? If so, nice. However, did they also imply that he was half-human? Wouldn't that make the previous part nothing? Ashildr being the Hybrid, but this reveal had nothing on Missy being the Master (for those who forget, I literally screamed "WHAT?!"). Turning Clara and Ashildr into a tag-team of time-travelling immortal gals. I dunno, I find the matching odd.

Pic sort of related (makes perfect sense if you like JJBA).

Fucking same. Capaldi has proven that he tends to move his hands while he acts. The shades give him that freedom and look good on him to boot.
Even with the new sonic I really hope he wears the sunglasses from time to time.

so what the fuck happened with Rassilon? What was the point of having that guy as Rassilon?

They ruined him. They made him into a weak, pathetic old man. This is the guy who founded time lord society for christs sake. Moffat has done with Rassilon exactly what he did with the sontarans - ruin them.

The Master's TARDIS was a fucking shipping container and a van and some kind of statue and some shit.

Who wants to bet that Class is actually going to be starring Clara and Ashildr?
They'll set up the diner near Coal Hill and she'll stay a teacher, but from time to time go on adventures and shit.

This.
Rassilon's hyped as being big billy badass and the Doctor fucked up his shit in seconds without even saying a word.
It's bullshit.
>>
>>63355400
He might have a plan, but the problem with replacing the audience every so often and the constant "soft reboots" is that every arc ends up being setup for another that ends up setting up another arc that ends up ignoring the plot points that set it up because its a long running show and you can't get tangled up in continuity. I miss when every series was self contained, now everything is a cliffhanger and there are no payoffs.

>>63356022

You know, that sounds quite like a reason to not build up your story by basing it on a shitty prophecy. Glad you agree.

>Lol fuck off Rassilon. I don't care about you guys. Just give me Clala
Oh, it's THAT kind of episode

The precise moment I knew I wouldn't fully enjoy this episode. Moffat, you can't do this half and half shit.

Either break the rules and let her live as a Time Lady or put her ass six feet under again.

Again, If Moffat was so desperate to see Clara survive, have the Doctor do some BS to make her a Time Lady with regenerations. That way a new qt could play her.

None of this "I'll take the long way back to my death" Bullshit.

Madness. Series 6's first two episodes were great and nailed the classic scary horror of Doctor Who with the Silence, plus we had The Girl Who Waited and The Doctor's Wife. This series has been pretty awful 2bh and has offered nothing close to that. Although last week was a good episode I'm still convinced it only seemed amazing because of the shit we've been served this year. Capaldi is being wasted.
>>
>>63356064
General Staal was GOAT

seriously though, this finale fucking sucked. Why were the weeping angels in it? and cybermen? He just throws stuff in there as fanwank in hope that people will overlook how shit the story is. What even was the story?
Why was it titled Hell Bent? Its crap. the 2nd part of Moffat finales ALWAYS are. Which is a shame because i thought Heaven Sent was one of the best New Who episodes.
Literally all of Rassilon's scenes in Hell Bent were in the FUCKING TRAILER.

id say id excuse clara getting a tardis if she went out of her way to steal it becasue she didnt want to die, also she managed to get away in the chaos caused when the doc is royally smashing up shit because he knew the timelords made him die and live for over 4bn years.

as an aside, how did the sisterhood know the doctor was back and what was the fucking point of them?

I don't get how this is so pleberino, the Doctor has literally never just shot someone before, sure he's killed billions and prior to DotD probably trillions indirectly but he's never been so eliot Rodgers as to shoot someone.

I mean, the ENTIRE reason he shot him was to he could regenerate into a black trans woman and that was the only way to so it that looked even mildly logical.

I'll go on record and say that this series was complete crap. Up until Face the Raven, there were no good episodes. And as of Face the Raven we are entering the domain of complete bullshit finale.

Heaven Sent was good though, as long as you can resist thinking about the plot.

So everything between Face the Raven and the first half of Hell Bent was a red herring, and the Time Lords made a deal with Ashildr because the Time Lords made a deal with Ashildr. The Doctor lost his memory for no reason.
>>
>>63355981

But why did it turn up at the start of this season? Why did Missy have it (they may have said the Doctor got it to her, I'm not sure). Why was the Doctor's death any more imminent than it's ever been before, including all the times he has semi-died/regenerated?
