The other admins on the Peruvian Fanpage of Doctor Who think I'm a pleb for thinking ''Hell Bent'' was shit.

They actually loved the episode, even the main admin (a fat guy on his 30's which plays vidya all day and got friendzoned 2 years ago) wants to suck Moffat's dick because of how ''good'' was the episode.

Disappointment after disappointment, doctor kept calling everything he could a hybrid, gave Maisie Williams a chip that let's her heal and gives her eternal youth., More disappointment, Harness remains a fucking hack. Gatiss remains a fucking hack and got even worse as a writer. Clara dies to quantum shit that can find you anywhere in space/time. Doctor gets trapped somewhere for 4.5 billion years to make him confess about some hybrid shit that's prophesied to destroy Gallifrey. Gets out and finds himself on Gallifrey, Rassilon's an old decrepit man now who acts like a little bitch and screams like a petulant child and is told to get the fuck off the Doctor's planet (Gallifrey). Gallifrey's wasted as the Doctor only wants to use them to pluck Clara out of time, does so and fucks off in a new Tardis. Doctor finds Maisie at end of the universe, takes her too, Doctor gets mindwiped, Maisie takes new Tardis and Clara goes with her.

It's very recent. In the mainstream at least, Time Lords changing gender has sort of been winked towards since Matt Smith made jokes about it curiously around the same time Moffat became showrunner. The race-changing shit is almost brand new, started with River Song I believe.

I also wanna say that they MIGHT have mentioned it during Tennant's era, but if they did I only think it was as a joke passing, I never took any of it literally.

It DOES get mentioned in an old radio-play, but this is what classic Who had to say about it:

>'A “Sex Change Regeneration” is forbidden and is considered to be a worse crime then stealing a TARDIS and interfering in other time zones. The standard punishment is for the Time Lord to be locked inside their TARDIS forever. Once imprisoned, the criminal's only escape is to activate the de-materialization switch which will remove them from History, turning them into a neverperson.'

The problem was that it opened TOO strong. It almost mirrors S6 part by part. Started off promising and went to shit after the first two episodes.

Unfortuately for S9, there was no "AGMGTW/Let's Kill Hitler" episode in the middle that gave the season some enjoyment despite the fact that the season finale would be an utter clusterfuck. S9 was just a promising beginning that could not live up to its promise by the near end.

Honestly if the season ended with Heaven Sent, hell if the series ended/went on hiatus after Heaven Sent we would have at least been given a promising ending that The Doctor finally found Gallifrey and just leave it at that or leave it to another showrunner a few years down the road who can properly give us proper writing of the series since Gallifrey is back in the picture now.

I mean, for the Doctor everything should be translated into Gallifrean, right? And for Clara, English. So why do we see language X in Engish, but Gallifrean usually isn't translated, except on that crib that one time.

I don't think series 9 has a strong opener. Why would anything think it has strong opener?

And it was just dreary all over and not actually fun. Even what they set as a comedy episode with Vikings wasn't fun. Jokes everywhere were forced and there was overwhelming depressing feeling all over the place. Bizzarely, first time it was fun was the episode where Clara actually died.

Of course not every story needs to be comedy, but horror/mystery episodes just didn't pull it off this time either.
>>
>>63382766
The Doctor thought that he had saved Clara's life when he took her from Diagon Alley, but he actually took her from a frozen moment in time. He kept moving time forward because he thought she would eventually unfreeze and be "alive" again, but it never worked and eventually he ran out of time.
>>
>>63383226
Because the translation circuits are Gallifreyan and usually don't bother unless you concentrate.
>>
One thing I will say is, Moffat really loves half-arsed wordplay, doesn't he? First "Doctor Who", now "Me".
>>
>>63383225

Though he only regenerates after being forced to by the Doctor.

That's the Doctor's curse, the Doctor's fury. He turns Time Lords into ugly man-hating black women. A fate worse than death, I'm sure.

But I liked the finale. Apart that it fucking ignored Gallifrey entirely and forgetting Clara is a stupid move. Under the Lake is the only episode I've liked. I liked Sleep No More and The Zygon Inversion to a lesser degree too. Everything else was forgettable. Heaven Sent was great but it loses interest after you've watched it once.

There was absolutely no reason to forget clara, also he didn't quite completely forgot, and that was really stupid, he kinds of remembers the mummy on orient express and such also her name and her smile, so that was for nothing, also by erasing someone's memories they didn't stop the fact the doctor killed with a gun, shit he has alway stated hated guns and killing.

Who da man? wow, that episode was amazing! but in general I didn't like most ewpisodes of Series 5, just at the end with the 2nd big bang was that I said, wow I love matt smith, also the episode about van gogh was beautiful, but the rest I hardly remember them, nothing worthy. But the way plots uses to develop was really cool, the doctor watching the cracks in time in every travel, which moffat destroyed right at series 9 now the "main plots" are just explained at the beggining, in the middle and the conclusion.

I want to put her in a giant molten iron egg, let it cool so that it hardens (but is still fucking hot) then drop her in the south pole so that the residual heat melts the iron egg shell though the ice and the icy cold top will refreeze, effectivly sealing her for at least the next 10,000 years.

I wish these last series played a lot more with the fact that Clara is the mother fucking "Impossible Girl", so I thought she died, just like she did all this past times since the holiday special and then wow, clara is still alive because she is impossible and kind of remembers some adventures, but no moffat just throw at the end and written on the board: Run you clever boy, and made a mess of how clara is still kinda alive, kinda death with that last heartbeat.

Moffat taught her so Big Finnish can have a Clara/Me spinoff series.
>>
>>63384287
We've seen the Doctor giving her chances to do little things, she's been with him a while, she figured it out.
Ash had time to study the book, since the restaurant seen is likely months later. Remember, he told Clara that his Tardis wasn't where he left it, so we can infer from that that he went to the UK, and has presumably been searching for it ever since.

I liked this season, but I unironically think Clara might be the most Mary Sue character of all time. Not in the show, I mean literally, in the history of entertainment.

>Has inifinite clones guiding the Doctor
>Helps him steal the Tardis. Twice.
>Motivated him as a child to become who he is.
>Basically used him as a space Taxi service instead of him showing her around
>Had the Doctor try and save her from dying even after what happened with Danny Pink.
>Danny Pink.
>Is now Immortal, and gets to die when she chooses which can basically be never as long as she keeps moving.
>And has a loli sidekick she can eat out whenever she wants who will never age
>>
>>63384550
>Rassilon the Resurrected
Duh, of course he's the real Rassilon. Why do you want the character to be an alpha male badass? There's nothing wrong with him being ineffectual, squabbling and decrepit in at least some of his incarnations. Hell, most Time Lords have been since Robert Holmes got his hands on them.
>>
>>63384569
I keep hoping he'll go visit her.
Actually, I keep thinking I'd love to somehow become a writer on the show, because I'd work that into a new companion introduction. He goes to see Susan, we could bring back the same actress, she's very old, hasn't regenerated, has a grandson of her own who's absolutely brilliant and is working to help wipe out the last of the Dalek forces on Earth, kid gets shot in the big last push to get rid of them, Susan transfers her Regenerations to him, they bury her, go on adventures, eventually he decides he wants to spend time with the Time Lords to try and bring them back to their former glory, so for once a companion leaving isn't an attempt at emotional manipulation, but just someone moving on.

>>63383628
Well, it could have some effect on his weird alien powers, but in that respect he hasn't been shown to be any different than regular time lords. I guess it's still possible he's half human, but somehow half-human half time lord hybrids turn out 100% time lord genetically despite their parentage. Which would make sense, given that River, a human, had time lord abilities simply by being exposed to the vortex at the moment of her conception, so I guess time juice overrides mundane genetics.

I mean to say that was complete garbage wasn't it?.
Just had a flying visit to GB,Twitter,radio times & Facebook. It has never been more obvious that what I consider to be good Doctor Who and what nuwhovians call good Doctor Who are two completely different things.
I always hated people who said this in the past, but I honestly think it's time I dropped the show and just stuck to Big Finish.
I hate feeling disappointed and alienated by who all the time. And I don't think I can stomach River Song at christmas.

Go further.
From a meta point of view, she was shoehorned into nearly 50 years of history of one of the most popular shows on TV ever to be the most important character responsible for nearly every major event.

>>63384769

The problem there sadly is modern Who seems to puke at the idea of having the Doctor travel with another Time Lord or someone with Time Lord blood, even if it's a half Time Lord.

Which really is what makes Susan so unique, aside from being a direct relative of the Doctor, she was a Time Lord through and through. In fact she's the first Time Lord you see for the entire show.

>>
>>63384550
No, actual Rassilon fucked off instead of staying like a bitch at the end of the universe. In his place the Time Lords put this old guy cause his wife gave the best head, unfortunately he was crazy and had gone so senile that he was so confused about who he was, who he was taking over for and who's names were on all the shit around him, that he assumed that he was Rassilon and everyone else just rolled with it to not confuse him further.

Because he was so pants shittingly intimidating last time we saw him, and if he had acted with the personality he had in TEOT, the first soldier to refuse to shoot would have been facemelted and the general and all the rest of the squad would have become his weeping bitches as he burned through the Doctor's regenerations until he got what he wanted. So seeing the gauntlet, seeing him say he's Rassilon, and then being an ineffectual old geezer was disappointing. If at least there had been some more explanation of the change. But really, although disappointing, Rassilon wasn't the worst part of the episode, just symbolic of its problems.
