So does straight curry cow outrank thermonuclear-level-flaming gay sub-Saharan on the strength of the "successfully born with a vagina" card? These Woke: The Struggle Session games are so hard to follow.
IDK if Gutted-out Britain has published it's League Table of victim Privilege yet. But in the U.S. they did. It was Jews, Lesbians, Blacks, Poofters, and then everyone else who isn't in some way a normal human being.
A lot of the Doctor's female companions have been feminine. That didn't mean they were weak.
Sarah Jane was brilliant and clever, Liz Shaw was a scientist, Jo Grant, Romana, Nyssa, Tegan, Ace, and Leela all contributed without being dumbed down. Maybe this idiot needs to be fired, the whole cast fired, and they need to start over. That's the beauty of Doctor Who. It can be started over without losing continuity.
I'll be watching this series as one of the ways I'm connecting with my son, so prayers of support will be appreciated.
I hated this so much. Brace yourself for spoilers, if you care.
The Doctor blackouts a hospital in his pushy search for Belinda's address. It's a joke. He probably killed people. That is a bit on brand but seldom does the Doctor's arrogance get people killed in such a banal and stupid way.
I don't hate the robots as much as others. The emoji face thing was done better at the end of Capaldi's run but at least they were a little novel. Seeing polish robot reminded me of K-9 and for a second I was hoping he was going to contrive an appearance.
The "diploma" being the resolution was telegraphed early.
The villain was more cartoonish than a Dalek.
Let's keep in mind the boot strap paradox that made this mess possible:
The diploma somehow shows up on the planet as a foundational document surviving *many* years (I think the Doctor said thousands of years, which seems implausible to the extreme but also necessary for the planet's name). This is probably related to the end of episode reveal that the Earth is destroyed the day the season finale airs (well, I guess it's nice to have ambition).
Al sends the robots to Earth to fetch him Belinda.
As Belinda is captured she names Alan as someone they should kidnap (presumably instead of her). She passes through a time warp in route.
The robots send another kidnap team, this one lands before Belinda's kidnapping right before the robot uprising. The kidnap Alan and make him their leader, he kicks off the robot uprising seeing everything as a video game. (It's one thing to make an odious strawman of a villain and another to do so in such a lazy manner as to lean into a racial/social stereotype so hard as to fail to even attempt to find a point of understand.)
Possibly offensive point of degression: imagine a 70's Doctor Who episode used a black man who speaks in jive in the place of Alan who then poisoned the planet with reefer. It's cringingly embarrassing. It's like watching a modern murder mystery and knowing the villain is going to be the least intersectional character in the cast, lazily bigoted to the point of being stupid.
Moving on, where was I.
Right so the whole robot revolution is a self-creating bootstrap paradox that Belinda is accidentally partially responsible for.
The resolution isn't clever, the Doctor does the telegraphed thing and uses the polish robot to slip Belinda the diploma she touches them together and one barely explained time disruption (that maybe is related to the destruction of Earth?) and Belinda is fine and Alan is reduced to a sperm and an egg that is subsequentially polished off the floor.
(My son missed that and asked if he was turned into dust "Yeah, basically." I said, not wanting to spend any more time on the point.)
Belinda isn't wrong to reject the call to adventure after this adventure but the Doctor can't take her home. Turns out the Earth is destroyed and we see an odd collection of monuments and a calendar floating through space to tell the audience why, the Earth is destroyed on the date they are trying to return to.
I think I've put more thought into this than the script writer (or person who wrote the prompt for the AI).
As an addendum: the rest season is totally awful. The "best episodes" are "The Well" and "Lux" The former being close to a standard base under siege nonsense episode with sprinkling of the same old critical race theory (the soldiers that make the bad choice are white men while self-sacrificing commander is a woman). Lux is the "best" pantheon of chaos episode with a malevolent living cartoon breaking the fourth wall in a relatively entertaining way (it was easily my son's favorite 15th Doctor episode), but even his motives are muddled and his defeat, much like the rest of the pantheon, is basically just because the story needs to end.
The series capper is unsatisfying for even the most loyal woke scold "fans" and shows sign of reshoots. In any case it ends with a cameo from 13 leading into 15 regenerating into Billie Piper who is NOT credited as "The Doctor" or "Doctor Who" as per the usual from a regeneration reveal.
It's all weirdly and lazily assembled with plot developments that retroactively make RTD's first run worse but blowing up his flaws and rubbing your face in them. I'm left wondering if New Who was ever any good.
I think it's done guys, it's gone out with a bizarre desperate whimper and by the time its back my son will probably have moved on to other things.
It’s probably a character flaw that I get so much enjoyment from reading and watching people rip on these terrible woke shows.

That’s because it’s a woke version of Calvinball.

It's gonna be a long seven more episodes.
