Guys.
Series 5 have always been my favourite.
It brought a fresh air, good scripts, good characters, great Doctor, who was 100% Doctorish.
Show was dead from the second part of series 6 from my perspective, right when Moffat somehow killed the spirit of this show. Even Matt somehow started to feel awkward.
Anyone agree?

Just to clear things up, I was in love with the show since "Rose".

Is that when Caroline Skinner started as 2nd Exec Producer?

Not sure desu , but the show seemed to pick up for the 50th anniversary specials.

After that, Brian Minchin took over for s8, which altho wasn't perfect was undoubtedly a huge improvement.

Then s9 followed, hailed by many critics as the best series of the revival.

It's such a joke when people like this talk about 'the spirit of Doctor Who'. All they have is a vague and nostalgic ideal, maybe a few fucking youtube clips, it's absolutely nothing but a shamble of their own fickle feelings. (Self-perpetuating ones, too, because they are the sort of people who are in such a sulk at a television show that they go into every new episode already upset.)
Nothing they could meaningfully describe as a positive tradition spanning all of Doctor Who up until [arbitrary cut-off point, in this case Let's Kill Hitler]. Nothing based on actually thinking about what works and what doesn't. Just arbitrary standards of "this is right" and "this makes me feel saddy no-nos". Certainly not a glimmer of introspection (even though it's impossible to have a non-personal relationship with Doctor Who, many fans are content to interpret their own as universal), just the ardent search for validation from the similarly inclined!
It's not a nice idea, to think that one just doesn't like Doctor Who any more. It can be a comforting retreat to project blame onto the television show itself (or other vague forces of culture, such as "America", or one anon here likes to trot out "YA fiction" as if he's ever touched it in his life). But all of this is just bullshit. When someone actually kills 'the spirit of Doctor Who', it will be very obvious. You will not have to protest it on the internet or go round asking your IRL mates.

This, people have this retarded idea that whatever period of Doctor Who they're nostalgic for is what Doctor Who always be like, whether it's Hinchcliffe, RTD or whatever.

Whoa! In the last two words of the post, we get an actual disagreement! You sure kept us waiting brother. Sadly there's nothing in it but oh well, objection raised eh?

Very sorry. But it's a poor trend among Doctor Who fans to talk in bollocks terms about how 'the spirit is dead' and if this kind of rhetoric isn't mocked, exposed, and shown the fucking door, it's going to be the cancer infecting every corner of the fanbase until kingdom come.

The truth is cats went "too far" (he admitted this on Thorax) with the Adam thing including trying to link him here, and said he was going on a break for a while. He will probably come back once the people who have been shitposting about him all week get bored/die/go away.

>>71715420
Just remember, he is grumpy, but that's not the only emotion he expresses. If you keep that in mind and write him like the doctor, I think you should be good. Before accepting a line of dialogue, I like to read it with the impression of whatever doctor I'm writing for.

Exactly. He's actually rather vulnerable, so he hides his emotions behind a gruff exterior. His uncaring attitude is really because he doesn't think mourning or being emotional would be helpful, so he just does what he can.

Essentially, he doesn't like to bullshit around, but he does care.
>>
>>71715519
Thanks I will try that. I always seem to write him too grumpy.

>>71715537
Thank you. I don't have anything right now but I'll try to come up with something tomorrow, it's getting pretty late here.

>>71715662
That's actually a pretty spot on analysis of the character, as we saw in Face the Raven he's exactly like you said.
>>
>>71715662
I remember someone going on about how they ruined the 12th doctor with series 9. The scenes between him and Davros are what we needed really. I should be able to laugh with the doctor, but also take him seriously.
>>
>>71715802
A fundamental of getting the Doctor right is remembering that he's on your side, but he's not your friend

Wowzers.

>>71715863
This is further shown in the series, by never letting us know what the doctor is thinking inside his head. If you want to connect with a character, that's what the companions are for.

Only a certain version of the Doctor. He's the best version of the very alien Doctor, rivaled only by Four.

However, there's also the very human version of the Doctor, which 2, 5, and (arguably) 10 fills, to a degree.
>>
>>71715802
I thought he was better in S9. I loved S8 and thought 12 was good but after S9 and rewatching it does kind of feel like Peter Capaldi playing The Doctor in a lot of scenes. At least to me. I thought he was much more comfortable in S9. I guess some people didn't like that he was more lighter or whatever.

I just fell asleep watching Doctor Who and had a dream about the fact that I'll never see any of my friends from high school again. ;_;

>I'll never see any of my friends from high school again.
Why not?
>>
>>71716622
>Not having dreams that are about doctor who

I had this dream where I was going through a pipe system with 10, we were climbing up this tower filled with pipes, I forgot what was at the top though.
>>
>>71716370
Well, a theme of S8 was the Doctor trying to find himself.( That's why 12's S9 personality change made sense--it was natural character development from the "I'm an idiot" scene in Dark Water.) Maybe that's why Capaldi came off as wishy-washy to you.

>>71715937
I kinda disagree, especially since Heaven Sent was all about the Doctor.

Because I have no way to contact them and no idea where they ended up and vice versa.

Someone mentioned the Two Masters as being Faction Paradox-ish last thread, and that finally spurred me to download UNIT: Dominion. It's probably ruined for me given that I know the LOL ZOMG twist, but I hope I can enjoy it enough to fuel my hype for the Three Masters trilogy.

What do you consider the most hardcore moments in Doctor Who history?

All I can think of are:

>destruction of Skarro
>no second chances
>fury of the time lord
>>
>>71710874
Series 9 > Series 5 > Series 4 > Series 3 = Series 8 > Series 7 > Series 6 > Series 2 > Series 1

All had their highlights, though.
>>
>>71719244
12 vs Ashildr in Face the Raven was pretty badass, but it wasn't long enough and the payoff was shit.

>>71719244

>>71719244

I thought the ending to Waters of mars was pretty heavy. What do you think though?
>>
>>71719323
Twelve is my favorite modern Doctor but so far he hasn't had one of those "oh FUCK" moments. Hell Bent was prime for it after the buildup of Heaven Sent but it dropped the ball hard.
>>71719411
Seven was fucking metal.
>>71719455
In this context, I guess the closest I can come to defining it is "impressive and maybe a little scary."
>>71719536
If you're asking in general, I liked it. If you're asking in response to >>71719244, I think it was hurt a little by him not getting away with it.

Anybody else worried the next Doctor will be an attempt to return to 10 and 11? Early 20s prettyboy and with the eccentricity knob all the way up?

I liked those Doctors, but I don't want them to be what Doctor Who is from now on.
>>
>>71720151
I think 12 has already shown that there will still be a big following if the doctor isn't that, so I'm not worried.
>>
>>71720185
I Googled and there are apparently betting odds on various actors for the next Doctor, and the favorite is this dude.

I'm sure he's a fine actor but holy shit.
>>
>>71720266
I see what you mean, he looks like an off brand Matt Smith.
>>
>>71720311
Bootleg Matt Smith
>>
>>71720311
Let him grow a beard or just change his hair a lot, have him dress in a way that doesn't scream "quirky nerd," and make him kind of an arrogant prick, like 11 mixed with 4. Would that differentiate him enough from 10 and 11?
>>
>>71720151
I'm worried more generally that due to BBC pressure the next era will be too extreme a reaction against the Capaldi era.
>young pretty Doctor with sexual romance with his young pretty companion
>extremely low effort and generic stories
>more obsession with coolness, wackiness, quips, god help us maybe fight scenes since this is the Marvel age, goofy aliens, pop culture
>hard attempts to market the show has having gone back to its 'quirky' roots (read: RTD era) - shit CGI things everywhere, budget reduction
>merchandisable crap in every nook and cranny

The only way to prevent this is if Series 10 somehow makes a strong enough argument for keeping the show good.
>>
>>71719638
Clara on Gallifrey at the end of Listen was oh fuck for me.
>>
>>71720266
I doubt Whishaw would do it. Not only is he way too popular and in-demand to waste it on Doctor Who, but it would probably go against his artistic integrity.
>>
>>71720552
>god help us maybe fight scenes
If they're used sparingly and actually good (talking Donnie fucking Yen levels of good) I'm actually fine with this. The second Doctor knew Venusian Aikido, after all.
>>
>>71720634
>it would probably go against his artistic integrity
Does that mean if he does sign on, it's actually a good sign the show will be good because he likes what he's been told about the direction?
>>
>>71720552
>fight scenes
2, 3, 5, 8, and 12 have used Venusian Aikido before. 3 has also used Martian Karate.

I guess so. I mean it would be good anyway because he's great at acting, but it seems out of turn for him to suddenly commit to do a pulpy BBC fantasy all year rather than an artsy mini series about the tragic gay lover of a dead spy or something

And someone mentioned a beard?
>>
>>71720859
Two used it way more. Twelve has used it exactly once.
>>
>>71720796
Yes, yes, that's great. That's fine. 12 whacking someone is not a fight scene. Venusian aikido outside of Pertwee is a fucking meme.
3 is probably the closest thing to a Doctor that had decent fight scenes and they were basically duels.

I'm talking about the really naff battle scenes you sometimes get in NuWho when a bunch of people are fighting off the baddies of the week or some shit. NuWho has never managed to get the choreography or budget to make it convincing.

I'd never be happy with generic stories, to be honest. Maybe if they were written with absolutely godlike dialogue, plot structure, setting and characters, but even then something would be missing.
The series has been around for more than 50 years and part of its magic is that it can keep creating new and unfamiliar things. If it ever gave up on that in favour of refined retreads, I'd probably start to lose interest.
