    This week Edge has been mostly making this video, but they did go to a great party last night and done many things of questionable morals and legality.
    Also they miss Portugal cus it's freezing in the UK :(
    Thanks to ‪@gryotharian‬ for letting me use their music in this video, they make excellent retro Doctor Who covers, you should check them out. Other music I used was by @matiasarteaga4548 as well as Bill Bailey.

    I agree with you that Gatiss should be counted as the worst writer of the revival. Chibnal's problem is not that he writes the worst, most cringy scripts possible. His problem is that he writes the blandest of unflavored oatmeal scripts that only make full sense to him. As a guest writer, this makes him consistently mid. He writes filler for Moffat and RTD. As a showrunner? Well, honestly, I would've preferred they gave the show to someone whose episodes I consistently loathed because then at least I would've felt a.n.y.t.h.i.n.g in regards to Doctor Who in those years.
    Gatiss does terrible Who. I think he writes extremely good TV as long as it ISN'T Who. See: An Adventure in Space and Time for a script where Gatiss is killing it. Historical Bio-Drama? He can do that. Contemporary mystery? Mostly ok at that too. Most of his credited episodes on Sherlock are pretty alright. Lots of stuff he writes is fine. My guess is that he writes better with the constraints of the real world placed on him. You need to be kind of a lunatic to be able to actually embrace the infinite toybox Who provides you as a writer and people like Gatiss and Chibbers are just better writing realistic fiction. You need to be brain-broken in a more early Moffat, Neil Gaiman way to take full advantage of Who.

    The malignant tumour Moffat killed the show for me - trying to turn it into 'The Time Traveller's Wife'. It's only poetic justice that his own official adaptation was a damp squib.

    You might be surprised by us being here throughout 40 minutes but I gotta let you know I un-ironically sit through 2-5 hours of video essay almost daily. As a creative person it's like a good podcast on your favorite subject, or literally a subject you've never thought about! Either way it's great listening to while doing whatever art project I've thrown at myself. The more detail you go into the longer I'll stay. And you have a good opinion.

    @JoraulStreams 6 місяців тому +46

    Great analysis, cannot wait for the next one! Also, I do think Moffatt is one of the best writers for the show. We didn’t really touch on Rory being the man who waited, or the details that went into managing River’s timeline, but it takes skill to do that! If I’m being honest, I was a bit worried after watching the star beast for RTD’s return. I feel like even Moffat writes better episodes than those. Luckily the last two specials have been pretty good though. Anyways, with the exception of the slander for Amy and Rory’s final episode (tsk tsk) this is a perfect take on the entire timeline of Nuwho!

    • @edgeofthemap
      @edgeofthemap  6 місяців тому +11

      No doubt running a show is tough and it's a lot easier to criticise a writers work than it is to write something yourself. I find a lot of people's criticisms of Moffat in particular to be disingenuous when saying he's a bad writer because he very clearly isn't. Like with any creative person EVER some of his stuff works and some of it doesn't, just because I'm critical of some of his and RTD's work doesn't mean I have any less respect for either of them and for all they've contributed to the show :)

    I think you are wrong about Pompeii being a fixed point. The whole twist and emotional stakes of the episode is that it turns out that Vesuvious was NOT meant to blow. the Doctor realizes that he has a CHOICE and that to prevent a bigger catastrophe HE has to make the choice to KILL all those people by MAKING Vesuvious explode. Donna chooses to ease his guilt by SHARING the action, helping him work the machinery.

    The way you described the Flood villains from the Waters of Mars reminded me of a korean drama 'The Silent Sea' that sort of reimagined the idea of a deadly water based contagion, but on the moon. Unfortunately despite the longer run time they didn't tell a more interesting story. (I don't know if its lost in translation but many korean scifi often fall short on developing interesting ideas). but the body count is higher.

    Also The God Complex is one of the greatest single serve episodes in modern Doctor Who
    Also Dinosaurs On A Spaceship, while it is fair to say it's mediocre or even cringe, it's 100 percent aimed at Classic Who fans and upon recently rewatching it I would nonironically class it as one of the best stories in the entirety of modern Who, but I'm a classic fanboy so I'm biased

    Ooh, great analysis. From a Dr Who old timer. Nice to see someone not licking the 10th Doctor's ar*e for a change. You are right, the 11th Doctor is back as the mysterious Timelord again, as he should be. Matt Smith's tenure was the best of the new era. Shame there weren't more of he & Clara episodes because, in my opinion which matters not, that was near damn perfection. The 11th Doctor & Clara in the TARDIS was the best of new Who. Can't wait for the new vid. You'll probably tear them apart, now I've said that😬😆. It's great to find a Who channel which speaks my language. Great stuff. Keep it up (no ooh er intended) 😁
