Literally everyone : "show don't tell"
Chiball : "tell don't show? Got it"
Also Chibnall: This series finale has my least favourite script that I wrote. (Yes, he actually said that)
I never thought I’d say this but I miss Moffat
While on tv we have this shit finale, on audio on big finish there is the biggest multi-doctor story out in July, which is like the doctor who version of Infinity War.
It's funny how revived Doctor Who is almost parallel to Star Wars at this point. RTD era is OT star wars. Moffat era is the prequels. And Chibnal era is disney star wars.
@@linkofvev the sequels are good
@@linkofvev no ur wrong. The prequels are bad. Moffat was great in some part. Moffot is the disney of star wars and chibnal is the prequels. But that doesn't make a chronological order
@@Jeevzsk In the context of what sir jake said I am right. OT/RTD is considered the best. Prequels/Moffat were criticized heavily by the fanbase but when the newest films/Chibnal era came about, people started to miss what came before, realizing it could be far worse than what they complained about before.
Please don’t stop watching Doctor Who, where else are we supposed to get our weekly dose of funny analysis
*Pornhub*
Remember back in that Venice episode when 11 said “Tell me everything you know ” to the vampire chicks and that one day it would work?
Lmao
Suddenly Colin Baker's series look like Shakespeare was at the helm
I'd actually say more like Silvester McCoy!
Oh, for crying out loud. If you actually think "The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos" is on par with "Timelash" in terms of pure shittiness, you really need to crack open your old DVD cases and get a rude awakening.
Well, it's not that bad, purely because JNT is the biggest asshole in tv history by the sounds of it.
I would also recommend listening to the Sixth Doctor stories from Big Finish as they do a better job with the character and really allow Colin Baker and the Sixth Doctor to shine.
i was really hoping graham would kill stenza and lie to the doctor, anything that involved a risk instead of playing it safe, really hope next series isn't as boring as this one
Or you could do that Batman Negins thing of "i don't have to save you"
I was right but I ain’t pleased about it. Seeing you unravel over the past weeks has reminded of the journey I went through while watching The Ranch for two days straight.
cant wait too se youre review of all chibnall's episodes now lol
that video deserves it's sequel
Hmm. Seems like "unravelling over the past weeks" is indistinguishable from "Didn't mind (or even quite liked) some parts of it but disliked others". Which is pretty much where I sit re: this season...
Now we will have to wait until 2020 to see how much worse the show can get under Chibs rule.
@@SammEater Or better. There's still a chance Chibs will take this year to analyse what worked and what didn't and will come back stronger in the new year. He has plenty of feedback to work with if he's willing to listen to it and sort the wheat from the chaff.
You weren't right dumbfuck, none of you idiots are. Y'all cried over a female doctor and are still crying about it.
Hey can you make a compilation of all the "random" and stupid comments the doctor make that were supposed to be funny. For example the wellies and sunglasses from the ghost monument etc.
It wouldn’t be interesting. Every single time it’s somebody mentioning something, the doctor goes “ooh, [thing], I like [thing] and then she just rambles on about it for a minute while nobody else says anything in sheer confusion along with the audience.
But then again I’d like to see the ridiculous amount of times it happens.
The drinking game you're suggesting would lead to blood poisoning after the fifth wave of the screwdriver
Or a comlitation of the cringiest moments, the doctor be thrown to a wall by a phone, the tardis downgrade with a custard cream biscuit disoenser activated by a pedal, Yaz saying Mexican a thousand times, rap music defeating spiders, pregnant man, doctor's spastic facial expressions, the doctor using gang slang trying to relate to lowlives, the doctor being imature interfering with history trying to save an old woman she doesn't even know, the frog speaking with Grace's voice and the stupid names used. Paltraki, Umsang, Ux, Ptingand stupid Chibnall episode titles that cannot be remembered.
And one for all the stupid constipated faces she pulls
Imagine ME with an ACTUAL SOFA
Its so bloody boring!!!! I've folowed this show for 53 years and it just breaks my hart what they have done to this fantastic show!!!!!!!!
Simon Jones the damages was done when they hired that hack Moffat in 2009
Heart*
just some random etc, Moffatt was a genius. RTD was fine--his everyone has to be in love with the doctor motif limited the doctor and his companions in terms of development, and I found his seasonal arcs s bit bland, but at least he had them whereas Chibnall didn't even bother with character arcs let alone thematic arcs. But anyone who can deliver Day of the Doctor and The Time of the Doctor is a genius. I understand Moffatt was over some people 's heads (which is why people who complain about him can never actually cite a true reason other than the generalized whine) but there is no debating that man's brilliance.
E North You know insulting people like this. Shows that you ignore all legit criticism of Moffat, a lot of people love how he starts but he sucks at finishing especially without someone to rein him in.
@@justsomerandomguyonline1144 moffat is brilliant! He is severely underrated he has made some amazing episodes
WHY WASN'T THE FROG HERE?
WHY DON'T WE JUST WATCH TALKING FROG AND GRAHAM.
That would be a spin off I'd watch.
The talking frog might be the new doctor who. The doc is an alien, maybe Chris, the new show runner is running out of stories to write or he doesn't know or want to continue the doctor who classic aliens. We may have to keep watching the other seasons before series 11 to remind your selves how much we love the past.
Me llena de orgullo y satisfacción verle aquí, caballero.
Necesitamos un video sobre esto amigo Quetzal
Hock'n'legs
the frog is the real Doctor in this Series
Back in series 4, I found it a bit crap how the Doctor Donna just talks gibberish, pulls a lever and all the Daleks blow up. At the time I thought it was incredibly stupid.
Now we're at series 11 and the 'big bad' the series was defeated by getting shot in the foot, and then somehow dragged into a stasis chamber without putting up any fight. Looking back, I'd rather have exciting sci-fi nonsense than something completely mundane. Series 11 is just mundane and boring, with no pay off ever. Each episode starts off decently, but ends up completely flat and disappointing by the conclusion.
ok..but most importantly wouldn't tim shaw's facial teeth have decayed just a bit? like damn whoever he took the teeth from must have grEAt dentists
I was thinking the same thing. I was hoping to see a decayed rotten face. Who knows, Listerine up there in the tubes
I *was* going to make a point out that but I realised he's a really cold guy so they're probably preserved/frozen under the helm.
And the best part? I didn't get that from Jodies dialogue
actually... I think it's far simpler: teeth dont decay... we have to brush them because we use them daily multiple times and the acids from the food really damage them and so they decay... but teeth out of a mouth don't have those issues, they remain just as bones... so unles he's chewing stuff with his face, those teeths should be ok... Also, no one got any older so, the teeths are the least problem
BRING BACK MOFFAT.
Cannot believe I am saying this
We live in dark times indeed
Hey at the very least Moffat did have a bunch of decent Episodes under his belt.
Moffat’s worst is chibnall’s best. Why
@@notfarinthepast7212 because the standards of Doctor Who have drobbed Drastically.
Or hire some Big Finish writers.
I haven’t been this bored since I was forced to go to the decathlon when everything was all pole-tracky.
I have fallen asleep...literally 😕
It's amazing how stupid you idiots are.
@@Auron1Roxas2 how are we stupid or idiots? Just because the new series is bad and this is how we actually feel about it
No dumbass it's not bad and no one cares about your hurt feelings. You idiots are crying over a female doctor and just hate the season no matter how good the episodes are. You can deny it all you want but it is the literal truth. You complained when it was announced the doctor would be a woman and you've continued to have carry that prejudice with you into the new season. So cry all you want it doesn't change the fact that it was a good season and that the doctor is now a woman. Deal with it.
Auron1Roxas2 Got it your just going to ignore legitimate criticism and hide behind female doctor. Doing so allows sad little people like you to stay in your little bubble and continue to consume crap.
“When that cloth thing brought up the timeless child prophecy and then it was never touched upon again”
Oh if only...
Fun fact, the Daleks also cut through a metal door in their first story from 1963! Chibnall's writing is 55 years outdated
Excellent review man, parts of it had me in stitches
and the dalek in 'into the dalek' that uses it's gun as a cutting tool, although I don't know why they didn't bring back the cutter claw arm from 2005...
Love your inbetweeners videos, seeing youtubers on random videos is the best 👍👍👍
We acting 2005 didn’t recycle that
Luckily, I fell asleep and missed the last 15-20 minutes. Neither have I pulled it up right here in my DVR just to say I absorbed the material...uh, hmmm...
Ok, just wanted to also mention the planet thing was kinda robbed from Douglas Adam’s masterpiece, “The Pirate Planet “
Thanks all!
Fridaey13 etc, by illegals? I have no love for Chibnall, but you're disgusting.
As soon as the fist bump happened I chuckled, knowing that you'd have to continue reviewing this show.
EDIT: Hopefully the NYD special review is on the way...
I giggled and my family thought I was crazy.
Anyone who has never watched classic who won't get what I'm about to complain about. In this episode the Doctor says she has never encountered beings like the hux who can alter the universe with their mind, yet in Classic Who's pyramids of mars the 4th Doctor literally says that it takes a being of sutekh's almost limitless power to destroy the future. Now I don't mean to assume but I'm gonna guess that means that Sutkeh can also alter the universe with the power of his mind so if that is the case the doctor has either:
A) Forgotten all about Sutekh The Destroyer
B)Lied through her teeth
C) The writers completely forgot that such an iconic character existed who could do that sort of shit.
To be fair, the Revived Doctor Who (aka. NuWho) was a soft reboot; it included hints and cameos and easter eggs from the classics, but it was meant to stand on its own.
@@LadyDoomsinger you could the McCoy era or the Pertwee era os a soft reboot
Not saying I hated this series but I was massively disappointed. No over-arcing story, no interesting characters, no interesting villains, no actual threat, most episodes with the exception of 1 or 2 ranging from mediocre to awful, and overall just poor writing. Still have hope for the show but this series was just awful in my opinion
Every time we need to know what is going on, the Doctor tells us. Blah blah blah. No subtlety at all. Sniper bots that can't snipe, but the dialogue punches you in the face every time.
@@sillypuppy5940 Like I said the writing has just been so poor. Every conversation just falls flat on its face. There's genuinely nothing that make's me care about any of the characters, apart from Graham maybe. Still don't understand why the sniper bots were even included in this series because they literally didn't injure a single person. Just really disappointing altogether
I really liked Kerblam and It Takes You Away, but other than that this series ranged from okay to boring for me. For me Doctor Who episodes are never really truly bad, just forgettable, usually.
What episode is this?
@@conn1241 Wasn't the series supposed to be exactly the opposite of one story per episode? I think i read somewhere that with the new showrunner the seasons would be more about one big story instead of many small ones.
And so there was an arc this series. There is a villain who appears in almost every episode. He tries to kill the doctor too often. His name sends a chill down the spine.
*_Chibnall_*
Oh how I wish the timeless child stayed unmentioned after that episode...
I was put in mind of The Pirate Planet from Tom Baker's era with the crushed planets, minus the wit and intelligence.
And THAT is a sub par episode itself.
@@TheSmart-CasualGamer It's certainly a mess. Not one of Douglas Adams' finest moments.
Eh, not up to Baker's usual standard. Don't get me wrong. I love Douglas Adams, but he just wasn't right for Doctor Who.
@@TheSmart-CasualGamer Got to admit, I'm not a big fan of Season 16, or 17 (when Adams' was script editor).
“Sonic plot advancer”. True and funny. The sonic is being over used again this series like in Matt Smith’s run.
But at least Matt Smith made it work.
Yeah, Matt Smith actually made it work by using it to identify certain things but NOT EVERYTHING HE SONICED WORKED AND GAVE HIM THE ANSWER uefhuewhfwe78fheu. Jodie literally uses the sonic screwdriver and every single time she gets accurate results, therefore basically concluding the episode every time.
It's not necessarily a bad thing. When used properly the sonic is a plot device to fast-forward through things that would be *boring.* We can watch the Doctor spend a couple of hours doing research - or she can sonic it from a nearby computer. We can watch the Doctor and her friends spend time trying to figure out how to get into a floating shrine - or she can sonic them in via the teleport system so we can get to the actual plot. And so on.
"Sonic plot advancer" is not a bad thing - especially when you're trying to cram as much story into 50 minutes as Doctor Who is usually trying to.
By and large I think the sonic has been used reasonably in this season, as it has in most seasons...
@@irrevenant3 I see your point and I do mostly agree. I think it would be extremely boring without the sonic screwdriver and would drag the episode and bore viewers to death. However, in this season it was used incorrectly for the majority of issues the doctor faced. Any issue the doctor faced was instantly solved by the sonic and therefore made the issue almost non-existent from the plot which makes you wonder what the point of it being there was. Idk I just think that they could have addressed the problems and issues more seriously so they affected the doctor in a greater way to provide suspense or real thought to the viewers watching.
@@kattisun_ Personally I think that aspect is garnering more attention than it merits because people are disgruntled with the show in general. The Eleventh Doctor overused the screwdriver *all* the time, but Matt Smith and his episodes were so entertaining that noone complained.
Its a bit hard to discuss a general impression that it was used incorrectly most of the time without specifics.
It did get used a bit in the season finale a fair bit, but that was the least of the problems with that episode. They tried to cram two hours of story into one hour of show and it really, really didn't work. Not plot-wise, not action-wise, not character-wise.
Other than that, my impression of the season is the opposite - that, if anything, Season 11 cut back on overuse of the screwdriver. For example, in "Kerblam!" Thirteen used it to interface with the system, only to find she couldn't fix the problem without access to the original sourcecode, so they had to go off and steal a bit of equipment. In "The Woman who Fell to Earth" she scanned the alien probe and still had to ask Tzim-Sha who he was and what race he was from (that one still counts though since she beat him with the screwdriver in the end). From memory the screwdriver did nothing useful in "Arachnids in the UK". In "The Tsuranga Conundrum" it was completely unable to help with the central problem of the ship being primed to explode when they reached the homeworld if they hadn't got rid of the Pting by that point. In "Rosa" the screwdriver was of no real help with the main problem of finding out what the villain was up to and what they needed to do to prevent his plan. In "The Ghost Monument" it wasn't helpful against the sniperbots or other threats they faced - it basically just gave them more convenient access to a log with some exposition. It didn't help in "The Witchfinders" - they ended up needing alien phlenotinum to deal with the Morax. I don't recall it adding any value to "It takes you away" except as a prop to fake out Ribbons with. (She could've used a custard cream as a callback to Eleven doing the same thing with a jammy dodger - that would've been funny. :))
Did you have a handful of specific examples where you felt it was overused?
I think it’s important to mention that the fact that The Doctor can summon The TARDIS at anytime she/he wants, which completely ruins every storyline when The Doctor loses The TARDIS, as long as she/he has a sonic.
They only used that in Time of the Doctor (if im correct)
Moral of the story/season: Chris Chibnall needs to work on his Sci Fi language.
He needs to learn how story structure works and character arcs work.
Grahams arc is good, trying to keep episode overarching plots out was a huge mistake. And the names need to be more fun. There is a reason why tim shaw is the best villain so far. The pting isnt named that bad either. Having not a fun or scary name isnt memorable.
*Chris Chibnall needs to go to the job centre
Hopefully the other writers teach him how to write good sci-fi if he stays as showrunner.
@@ooooneeee unlikely, most of them had never written any sci-fi before.
I hold the 13th directly responsible for all of the deaths of each planet destroyed due to her decision not to kill Tim Shaw in the pilot.
It's ok - just like the suffocating spiders, as long as it's someone else who does the killing its fine
epicheroic Just as 12th did when not killing Davros as a child.
Boar Vessel, 600-500 B.C. , Etruscan Ceramic Or like Tim Shaw, who is now probably dead from being in stasis whilst also being disconnected from his own life support for so long. That seems to be a trend in this series tbh
I hold the Fourth Doctor responsible for not genociding the Daleks which led to billions of deaths.
I hold River responsible for not killing Hitler like she said she would do.
Compressing planets into stasis fields and using them to power a doomsday engine was actually the main plot of the old Tom Baker episode 'The Pirate Planet' by Douglas Adams. Chibbers has now stolen plots from at least three 1970s episodes and repackaged them as his own work in modern Who.
Why did an act of teleportation convinced the Ux so utterly that "Tim Shaw" was their god?
The villains in this season were so unremarkable that I didn't even realize the robots in this episode were the same ones as earlier until you mentioned it.
This is so sad. A series that I’ve loved for years has finally come to a miserable end, can we get 2 likes
Hey guys can 33 of you unlike pls
No!
+ Hugo Flanagan "A miserable end?" You DO know another season is coming in 2020, right?
Oh, sorry. I forgot any kind of show that doesn't meet your personal expectations of quality immediately deserves cancellation, and anyone who feels otherwise can just hang themselves.
But, this isn't: 'Doctor Who.' In order for it to be the same show, it needs to have, at the very least, a few elements that connects it, to the previous season, which this doesn't.
As I said, in my quick review, for: 'Series 11,' if you like: 'The Tsuranga Conundrum,' please, explain, Why.
It's the Reality bomb but less grandiose, less interesting and with a terrible villian.
I mean seriously, which bellend thought that no one would notice them recycling plots?
Wanna know the problem with the series, NOTHING HAPPENS, an entire series of talking shit, and its not entertaining like classic who, because that was written by clever people E.G. Bob Holmes
Jackson Co that’s the best way to describe it I don’t think the series was that bad but your right nothing happens it feels like there should be a few more episodes left before a series finale
Man this series was disappointing, I honestly wish they just ended dr who at serious 10 with an amazing final episode
I hope the New Years special brings better stuff... *HOPE*
Jodie's stupid face on that gravestone sums up series 11, a piece of shit. Worst series by far. Not one redeeming episode.
@@boiboi9314 i hope that too, but Chibnall is a hack fraud of a writer. The BBC should give the job to someone like Paul Cornell whose previous episodes are two of the best ever.
Man they should re make series 11 or at least kill of Jodie. I know it’s not Jodie’s fault but the damages already been done.
I can still watch series 1-4 and just forget that David Tennant regenerated....
You sounded almost broken when reviewing this episode lmao.
Chibnall really needs to go. Let Jodie have her chance to prove herself as the Doctor without his shitty writing.
Fuck jodie she needs to go too
@PikaCinema You'd have to be Helen Keller to find Jodie "amazing"
@PikaCinema I agree 😁
@@theoglenister7740 I think Jodie could be great. But only if they fix her morals and have her realise how serious and guilt ridden of a character she plays. Jodie's way too lighthearted.
@@stereotypicalnerd8912 Oh, for fuck's sake. She's doing just fine, you immature little weasel.
I have never been so bored watching a doctor who series.
I think Chibnall and Jodie will be remembered in 10 years as a mistake
At least Colin will be finally removed from last spot. He deserves it, he's actually great.
TheJaviferrol not Jodie. Big Finish will find a way to make her great
TheJaviferrol Jodie won’t be remembered as a mistake. She’ll be remembered in a similar vein as Peter Capaldi has been by a lot of fans: Someone who deserved better scripts.
The real tragedy is that Capaldi at least had some good scripts for his Doctor to shine in. Jodie’s just been left with “Say non-sequiturs, I guess.”
Well Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi and Steven Moffat will remembered as a mistake the show was destroyed years ago should have cancelled it like the BBC planned when RTD was leaving
It’s seen as a mistake NOW dude.
Graham wanting to kill Tim Shaw could've been done really well. Especially after he somewhat relived losing Grace in the previous episode. As is common with this series though, there is no subtlety and everything must be over-explained. The conversation between Graham and the Doctor was the worst way to show his conflict and the dialogue was awful anyway. The issue should've remained unspoken and instead only shown in his demeanor up until the very end. Graham could then do something upon confronting Tim Shaw. This would've made the stakes of Graham's conflict much higher and, in my opinion, it would've made things a bit more interesting.
Well get em next time
Giraffe Attack I hope
MISSION FAILED
Everyone calling for Moffat you’re doing it wrong call for RTD.
My thoughts exactly
At least we got a fist bump.
Really missed out on how heartbreaking it can be for a human to forget their own name! And i was so mad - i really wanted to see the planet mess with the Doctor's brain. I wanted to see her lose her shit because the planet makes all emotions stronger and a Time Lord losing control of their mind could have been interesting and terrifying to watch.
Can we get a overall review for this season, comparing it to prior new-who seasons?
I've watched Doctor Who religiously since 2005 but this episode finished me off. never again
Harvey Stoner so The Moffat era didn't finish you off? Which had episodes like In The Forest of The Night, Sleep No More, Heaven Sent, Kill The Moon, The Day Of The Doctor, The Eleventh Hour which are some of the worst episodes ever
How did Moffatt not already do that? That was worse than this by the end.
I'm hinting at Town Called Mercy, Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone, Rings of Ahkten, Hell Bent and Eaters of Light.
The 13th doctor is so thick in the head
+ Harvey Stoner Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
I genuinely didn't know it was the finale until at the end of the episode when the announcer for the BBC said it was
You’re not the only one. Chibnall himself said it didn’t feel enough like a proper finale to him. Apparently it’s his least favourite episode of his run.
remember the good old days of Moffat and Russel t davies
I miss Moffat. Atleast Moffat knows how to make a scifi episode and atleast he have an arc.
Pretty sure I heard a line from the Doctor that actually references The Stolen Earth. Chibnall is literally pointing out his unoriginality.
Ben Rice Yep I heard it too. She says the Tardis once dragged the Earth halfway across the universe
at least there was a call back to previous episodes, that barely happened!
Shearyar Khan and turned a southern into an egg.
PikaCinema Well yeah, but he still pointed it out, whether he intended to or not. There’s a difference between a “nod to the past” and referencing a past episode that you reused plot points from in the current episode.
PikaCinema I mean, other than a returning villain that the Doctor last tried to save returning with a plan that involves the capturing and removing of several planets from space, yeah I suppose you could say it doesn’t borrow any elements. Admittedly a lot of these ideas have been reused time and time again in DW, but Chibnall really didn’t help himself by putting in a reference to an episode that shares some elements with his current story.
New Who ended for me when Series 10 ended. I still liked it (even though it began to run cold) and it would have been perfectly fine had it ended there. Besides, I still have Classic Who to catch up on.
Ryan Sinclair Don't you DARE
The best thing that came from this season - remix of it is so nice... It only proves that they did kill the best companion of the season in first episode.
And now we wait for the arrival of the Christma.. oh wait... they're not doing a Christmas episode? It's going to be a 'new years day' episode? Why?!
Is Christmas not inclusive enough for all the Doctor Who viewers? I truly wish some kind of miracle will take place and we'll get the David Tennant quality back again at some point in the future.
Actually it's because they lost their slot. (Not enough good quality for the good slot).
@@lillianhoigard6702 Not sure which one of the two scenario's would be the 'better' one... For Doctor Who to lose their slot on Christmas... How many years has Doctor Who had it's Christmas special? For that to suddenly go away this year is just... yikes.
What I was expecting to happen, because there was what I thought was great foreshadowing.
The planet makes you lose your mind, act odd and even aggressive.
The Doctor removes her mind stabliser knowing full well the gamble the she has to take making herself vulnerable, and I thought the story was going to go that the planets in the crystal were a trap, and Timshaw set them up that The Doctor inadvertently destroys the planets when trying to save them.
TimShaw won, he wanted The Doctor to see that’s she’s not some all powerful saviour, and that sometimes her actions cause more death rather than save lives, and it’s her fault she kept himself alive. It’s an excellent example, and a point Graham makes when he shows resentment for him not being killed in episode 1.
However, The Doctor is now emotionally destroyed by the loss and mentally broken by the planet, she’s lost it, she’s now a threat, and in her state makes a dramatic attempt to kill TimShaw, BUT Graham see’s this aggression, and know’s this is not right, and the climax is Graham and The Doctor dramatically arguing about what’s right. Graham sees how wrong aggression and revenge is and gives an amazing intellectual monologue as to why The Doctor is wrong, he goes against his earlier belief for revenge to save The Doctor.
How? He makes multiple points that the tardis team are better than TimShaw, because them doing what is right is what makes them a family, even with The Doctor’s emotional state and mental instability it gets through to her and she ceases to want to kill TimShaw. Thus despite them losing, Graham makes them lose with dignity.
From that, he has earned a significant amount of respect, and as a family still loves The Doctor despite her moment of weakness, they now understand each other, Ryan now see’s this amazing man, and finally *for the first time* calls him Grandad.
Still have no fucking idea what to do with Yaz though...
Will you be reviewing the New Years special
Believe me he will
Just, get through that, and then we get over a year, without any: 'Doctor Who.'
But... What's so bad about Graham wanting to kill a monster who killed civilians, including his wife, and committed mass genocide? Does Tim not deserve to die for that? Is the doctor more of a space hippy than before now? Let's forget his (her!) past where he almost certainty killed Daleks and believed he destroyed his own planet. Speaking of that, no mention _whatsoever_ of the doctor being a Time Lord, or something about her history.
"Does Tim not deserve to die for that!" No, but he apparently does deserve to be kept in stasis for all eternity. How merciful.
Now the Doctor DIDN'T destroy Gallifrey (see the 50th Anniversary) she doesn't have to cope with that anymore. She can return to her classic morals, i.e EVERYBODY LIVES!
@@TheSmart-CasualGamer Well I said (s)he believed for a while, as in used to. But yeah, she knows now.
@@thejoin4687 The Doctor is not merciful. Remember the family of blood, where the Doctor hid away from that family, because they wanted to use him to live on forever or something, but then they tried hurting his companion and he decided to give them exactly what they wanted, made one a scarecrow, unable to move and forced to watch and locked another one into mirrors, also a mere observer, imprisoned? This is reviving those antics, at least to a point. The difference is that the 13th Doctor had nothing leading up to this decision, it wasn't even decided by her, and she has no explanation of her moral compass, while 10's compass was clearly that you'll only have one chance.
Laughed my butt off at this vid... then cried at the end. Goodbye Doctor.
She's coming back in 2020. Whether or not you're still watching is entirely up to you.
I think I'll just be watching classic episodes 'til she fucks off thanks.
So... why did "Tim Shaw" wait 7k years to try and take Earth?
Narukami plot
Narukami because Chipnalls a fucking brainlet
Can you do the Eleventh Hour?
It's my favourite episode and imo probably the best episode introducing the new doctor in new who, but I'll happily watch you pick it to shreds.
Boar Vessel, 600-500 B.C. , Etruscan Ceramic Fuck The Eleventh Hour that episode belongs on The CBBC it was that point the show drop in quality
I was seriously optimistic for this series. After watching broad church, which was very well done (if y’all like murder mysteries i reccomend it... might heighten everybody’s opinions of Chibnall and Whittaker + it has tenant in it). This series just got worse and worse for me. I don’t mind the doctor as a woman at all, I would’ve welcomed this series had it not felt like writing taken from the trash bin of the Sarah Jane adventures...too many companions and not enough time for actual development for any them... the doctor included somehow. Good luck doctor who. I’ll stick around to see how it’s doing but I’m not wasting my time watching until I start hearing of changes.
Yep, feel a bit let down as an old Who fan with this last incarnation who sounds like a supermarket employee from the Eastend of London and pretty much narrating the action and what is happening as it is going on.
In 'The Visitation' the 5th Doctor says "I feel as if you've just killed an old friend." after his Sonic Screwdriver is destroyed. After the abomination that was series 11, I would say the same thing to Chris Chibnall and Jodie Whittaker.
This actually felt like a normal episode to me. I didn't even realize it was the season finale.
My whole overview of the entire season/Series 11 is Graham was the best companion, Rian was in the Middle and I grew to like him a lot more by the end of the season and Yaz just felt like she was just sort of there and didn't really add much. The only legitimate enjoyment I got out of all the episodes was Kerblam and even that was kind of mediocre. Jodie as the Doctor I feel just doesn't work she just makes weird faces and uses the Sonic screwdriver too often. I'm sure she's done great work in the past, but I just don't see it here. Even worse is that after the New Year's Day Special we have to wait a whole year for her to regenerate. I just hope if we get another female Doctor they'll give her a decent personality and not make her explain every little thing and have her over reliant with the Sonic Screwdriver.
Does anyone think Robert Carlyle should be the next Doctor?
That's not very progressive! It'll have to be Ru Paul.
Should have been the 13th
Dianna rigg would be great. Throwing shade at everything. Or lena headey? Who is really a good actress in multiple series.
It'll be a one legged Chinese actor from Poland, the only SJWs that they left out!
@James Levy No.
Harry, I keep checking in for your "Did It Suck" New Years blow out bonanza Dr, Who. Please, your killing me with the waiting, lol!
Love this. Excellent vlog. Very well done. You've now gained another subscriber
This video hasn't aged well. "Take the cloth thing from episode two that mentioned a timeless child that was never touched on again". If only they had actually left it untouched.
I hope next season began that capaldi..smith..tennant..is standin under the shower and everything was a bad dream!
Whilst I don’t always agree with your ideas about this show, I still find your reviews hilarious and and love hearing your opinions and find it very interesting
14:48 I would like to know what the outro music is called, and who it's by. It's hilarious.
Your videos this series have been far more entertaining than the series itself.
They could have said 347 years later but no it had to be 3407 years. They could have found out how long Tim had been on Ranskoor Av Kolos and gone back in time, with their time machine, to tell the Uks that Tim wasn't the messiah, just a very naughty boy but no. Are the Stenza even still in existence for Tim to "lead them in exile"? How would he know?
I'm sure if you've seen my previous comments.... you know what to expect.
The neural stabilizers was to act as a defense against something on the planet that was telepathically attacking invaders. A cool element but they should have milked that more. I would have really liked to have seen what Yaz and the Doctor would do if those effects manifest. Would the telepathic attacker make them turn on each other? Would it risk their ability to save everyone? Would the Doctor's chase for saving absolutely everyone fail because she lost her memories in the process? It would have been such a wonderful addition to the gravitas. Of course, I've been dying for a Doctor to actually lose his memories in a crisis. I don't mind the 3 thousand years span, to me it feels more realistic that it took a long time to develop the plan and realize it. As someone who studies architecture... you don't come up with a house in a day- let alone build one. Any plan that intense will take hundreds, thousands of revisions and we don't know how long it took for Tim to even think of the idea or where he obtained the resources. And yeah...I do have a small bias for Chris because he at least acknowledges the work of his predecessors. I never liked how Moffat barely even admitted the Davies era even existed. (Then basically slut shamed David Tennant through the 50th anniversary meanwhile Matt Smith was... well... you might as well be a pot calling the kettle black. Both were great Doctors IMO, I just disliked the portrayal in that movie.)
For me, it was a solid finale to a solid season. There was maybe two episodes I felt were sub par but there's always one or two weak links in any given season. I do think they could have nixed one companion in favor of focusing in on whoever they chose to keep. Or maybe not bring the whole "fam" to every adventure. I think by mixing it up so that sometimes it's a Yaz episode and sometimes it's a Ryan episode would have really helped. There were a few too many times I felt like the main characters were sitting in the background waiting for a line.... But as a science fiction fan who has been watching doctor who for over half my life... this to me was equal to any other era of the show. I particularly loved the approach to science fiction, trying to pool in actual science where it was applicable and bringing new elements to the table. I actually like how the Doctor can't seem to be quiet for two minutes- I see her as the chatterbox Doctor and *imo* it's endearing. And I'm sorry... but I cried when Graham said he was too weak to avenge his wife and the Doctor said that he was strong. Just to me shows that we desperately need a Graham and Wilfred Mott episode. Please dear lord god in heaven.
Mainly I'm disappointed because we're going to be waiting another year for the next season. It felt like this season was just getting started and now we have to wait. I do think they should have explored more crazy alien stuff seeing as it was making it a point to take a break from past monsters. I think the episodes were over polished for Doctor Who but I personally prefer the campier episodes, so that's where that opinion comes from. But yeah love Jodie just as much as any previous Doctor. Have yet to develop a favorite or least favorite and Doctor Who is still my ultimate favorite show of all time. :)
Has Ryan got a sonic too? If not, how did he get back on to the ship/floating building thingy?
Yea this season was probably the worst in NuWho, at least the next season isn’t until 2020. You should revisit and do your review of previous (and better) seasons of DW again.
Haley Lamm how is it worst than Series 5,6,7,8,9 and 10
2 years really? the only episode i sortof enjoyed was the door dimension one but the ending of that was underwhelming
So that’s it, you’re done? I’ve only ever watched for Who! So thanks to the complete and utter dafty called Chris Chibnall, I’ve not only lost my favourite show for 6 years, I’ve lost the best critic of the best show. I truly believe Chibnall knows what he has done to me and my life. Goodbye
-Liam.
If you listen to the 'Timeless child' bit I personally think it's clear they are talking about the Doctor, not predicting something in the future.
I loved it when you picked out about the parting of the ways reference, thank you
I am guessing this means no New Year's Day special review then?
I would like his review thou. I had a lot of fun watching DW and then his reviews.
I fail to understand the Doc's reason in not killing someone that has already killed so many people and was in the process of killing even more and if left alive or he somehow escapes that stasis chamber will undoubtedly go on to kill again, ffs , the whole reason this episode happened was because she refused to let him die in the first episode , and now you're gonna leave him alive, AGAIN?
Actually it's the same situation as witnessed in the pirate planet, the tom baker classic story. Journeys end was different because the planets weren't compressed.
I didn't realize how bad that first bit with "3,407 years later" until you pointed it out. But now I can't stop thinking about how much this is a reflection of series 11's refusal to "show, don't tell". Not only would the classic titles served as the transition they seemed to be looking for, but they could have still made it work by just panning up slowing as day/night pass faster and faster with that ominous ship being constructed far in the distance then cut to black or something. Not "And then time passed.." captions.
Are we gonna get a Bird Box or Bandersnatch analysis like the good ole days??? 👀
I knew people were getting too excited about this new showrunner
Jay Town Nobody was excited...
@@doctorthirteen5727 People were happy moffat was gone and I knew they were gunna want him back
Noooo. Moffat alone is a terrible showrunner. Sherlock is sometimes decent because he gets a smug main character and has a co showrunner.
Jay Town I meant that when Chibnall was announced, nobody was excited. Haha.
The Thirteenth Doctor yes they were after 7 years of Awful Moffat people wanted change
Did you ever do a "Did It Suck" for the episode Midnight?
Can't seem to find it but it's my favourite episode and I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Has anybody noticed a trend with this series of the protagonists dealing with people or creatures in apparently peaceful but actually lethal ways (eg. Trapping hundreds of hungry spiders in a hotel vault, to presumably eat one another)? Same thing with this villain, they trap him in stasis, but he was plugged into all kinds of stuff just to survive earlier on in the episode, which he disconnected so he could walk. Presumably he’d just die after being away from his life support after a year or so, especially if some of his personal equipment failed during his imprisonment. Chiball did not think many of these endings out lmao
The Battle Of Randomness And Conveniences
WAIT WHAT!? This was the season FINALE!? tf man
edit: yea I know there is gonna be a special, but really? wtf
I get what you are saying and i 100% agree. However, it is possible that the next season could be better. If chipnail listens to the critique like your video. In the end i still enjoyed the season. Keep up the good vids my man
Compressing planets was also a thing back in the 70s with Tom Baker one of the best episodes of all time written by a genius The Pirate Planet
10:30
Actually this story rip off a fourth Doctor story almost completely, just different aliens and the people on the planets were dead. If you want more details just ask.
YES! You did it, a 1/10. The best low I've ever seen. I rate this review 10/10.
One question. I haven't been watching the current series, so why is the villain called "Tim Shaw"? Is this the name of some kid Chibnall went to school with who he didn't like? I first tuned in to Dr Who as a small kid in the sixties. The first episodes I remember were "The Space Museum".
His actual name is Tsim Sha but the Doctor misheard him when they met in the first episode of the season.
When I first watched this series I didn't know how many episodes were going to be in this series. So when I watched this episode it didn't feel like and ending. Mainly 'cos there wasn't a story arc.
Funnily enough this was my favourite episode of the series. This series as a whole was absolutely trash for me and there's nothing I truly outright loved. I mean I absolutely hate Jodie's performance as the doctor. She's not unique at all really and is just an amalgamation of the others. Honestly I also think she's just not talented enough for this role, she's bit off more than she could chew. So I ranked the episodes from worst to best along with what score I gave them:
10) The Tsnagura Conundrum (2/10)
9) The Ghost Monument (2/10)
8) Arachnids in the UK (3/10)
7) Keblam! (3/10)
6) Demons of the Punjab (3/10)
5) The Witchfinders (4/10)
4) It Takes You Away (4/10)
3) Rosa (6/10)
2) The Woman Who Fell to Earth (6/10)
1) The Battle of Ranskoor Av Kolos (6.5/10 (Probably lower soon)
You know why they can’t show us anything without also verbalizing it, because the idiots who still like the show aren’t watching, they’re listening while looking at their phones the whole time
This use to be a show you had to sit down and pay attention too, now it’s just background noise
mfw the best part of the "finale" as a 3 second shot of tzim sha kneeling hooked up to the ventilator (which should have been his introduction)
10:35 That idea was also in the classic era with The Pirate Planet.
It had so much potential, but too bad. Shame they wasted the usage of so many great actors, Jodie, the guy who plays Ryan. The episodes however, are just written weirdly. It's better than Moffatt, but it just doesn't FIT! Series 12 will be better.
It's the exposition problem that gets me. Yaz was reduced to "pointing out obvious things" we could guess. What a shame, I was looking forward to her. She was GREAT in her brief moments in the Pilot. She was a police officer like Gwen Cooper from Torchwood, and now I just miss Gwen a hell of a lot.
I do think you were a bit harsh, but that's how opinions work. I also really didn't like the finale.
Please bring back the Northern Budget Guy for next series. Thanks!
I want Russel T Davies back!
We all do. He could give these great actors a DAMN GOOD SCRIPT! However, keep the others. Malorie Blackman for example.
Its to late...JW isnt DW. CC and crew are no scifi writers...the chars and storys are boring...
Hai .
The cloth monster that prophesised a timeless child...
Recently watched 'Twice Upon A TIme' again, a great finale for the 12th Doctor. I now realise what the ending and post regeneration scene means. The Tardis has great foresight into it's own and the programmes future. Not only does it try to get rid of Jodie Whittaker as soon as she appears, but it seems to be vigorously shaking all of Chibnail's series scripts out into the atmosphere. Hope it throws up it's new interior asap to.
