    With rumours flying around that Murray Gold might be leaving I really hope the fan show interview him too. He's left a huge legacy on the show in the last 10 years with his music. It would be an absolute shame if Murray is not given a decent send off!

Ignoring the jokes, I think you wrote some of the most beautiful episodes of Doctor Who. As I said before, I will miss you, as I missed RTD when he left. I swear I will always remember the joy, the hope and the tears that your era brought to me. Good Luck with your future jobs and good luck to Chibnall.

      It's not the negative side of random, it's the negative side of certain fans who shout loudly that "this isn't proper Doctor Who" simply because it doesn't fit in with their headcanon.
      I mean, I have problems with certain DW episodes (Kill The Moon and Forest of the Night in particular), as do most fans, but I don't go screaming my head off and being obnoxiously unpleasant simply because I have problems with them.

      The Cypher Im okay with that. What i mean are the fans that say what they think with no filter, like insulting the writers, calling them horrible names and stuff like that. Its wrong. Doctor Who’s message (especially this last season) is to be kind. Yes, express what you feel, but always in a reasonable way. Not being rude to everyone.

      Is not this fandom - it's any fandom, every fandom! Look at football fans. They're not backward in coming forward if their favourite team perform badly - there's fights on the streets if it's a bad game.
      Social media gives access to everyone else so we get to view the whole gamut of human opinion - by writing stuff down online we see the inner workings and raw frustration or delight of a person so when they express something it doesn't come out how it would if they were to do it in person.

      Since JNT, the hallmark of being Doctor Who's producer is an outsized ego. Frankly, it's kinda necessary to navigate some of the waters of fandom, but it's absolutely there, and huge. RTD and Moffat just have a knack for self-deprecation in public.

    People are gonna do their usual 'Omg bring back RTD, Moffat sucks' but I'm actually kind of sick of it.
    I love RTD, he brought Doctor Who back from cancellation, doing the impossible, however, people have to give credit to Moffat. Under Moffat, he has overseen the succesful continuation of the revivied series of Doctor Who. Furthermore, he has written 19/25 of the highest rated episodes of all time on iMDB. Sure, he had a few misteps as a writer, but who hasn't? Moffat has personally written some of the best episodes of Doctor Who ever including 'The Eleventh Hour', 'The Pandorica Opens', 'Heaven Sent', 'The Doctor Falls', 'World Enough and Time', 'A Christmas Carol', 'Blink', 'Day of the Doctor' and so many more.
    When it was announced Moffat became showrunner, there are emails from RTD to him saying that under anyone else, Davies would be worried about the show's future and Moffat was the only person he trusted with the show.
    People need to stop saying that Moffat ruined the show. If anything, Moffat has garunteed that Doctor Who will never truly die. If the show had been cancelled after RTD, it would be seen as a 'Well, we tried' thing and the fate of the show was all up to him. However, by showing more showrunners have continued, and the show is still alive means it's never truly going to end.

    • @theoutcastboi
      @theoutcastboi 6 років тому +2

      I wouldn't say the show will never end, I mean, what if something bad happens and we all die? Who's left to make all the Doctor Who?
      I think the show will probably last as long as humanity does though or at the very least, longer than I'll ever live, even if there is an occasional hiatus while the show waits for a new ideas and new talent to revive it.

    • @dhooth
      @dhooth 6 років тому +7

      I think Moffat definitely did a lot of good for the show, but also a lot of bad that shouldn't be overlooked. Just saying what I think here, you don't need to agree with it. I think Moffat started out very strong, but over the course of series 6 and 7 a lot of his episodes felt disappointing to me.
      Capaldi's era felt like it was gradually getting better, and I think series 10 was the one that convinced me Moffat still knew what he was doing. He's written genius things, but the occasional misstep happened a little more occasionally for him than for RTD, if you ask me.
      In general I prefer RTD's era (not denying it had its mistakes back then, too, but less frequent in my opinion) and I think Moffat has made a lot of mistakes, but to call everything he's left behind on DW horrible is wrong, too. He didn't kill the show, but sometimes he did come a little closer to that than what I felt comfortable with.

    • @lwaves
      @lwaves 6 років тому +7

      +pulk pulkman's Strictly speaking I don't disagree with your first line but using using good and bad is too black and white for me. I would say that he did a number of things that a lot of people didn't like, not that it was bad, because obviously a lot of people also loved those same things. Obviously, it comes down to the whole personal preference thing. Season 6 and 7 weren't helped by the breaks (which we know he had no control over), similar to how the last big writer's strike affected all the US shows a few years back. As it's in that same area I found it very interesting to see hear Moffat say how the War Doctor came to be and how different it is to what a lot of people assumed, i.e. increasing the incarnations so he could deal with the 'final' regen. That's the first time I've heard him mentioned that much detail and I can understand now why it happened, one thing inevitably led to another.
      I think Moffat and RTD had about the same number of missteps and mistakes, just very different ones. They both tried to do things (and add things) differently to the classic era, of which some worked and some didn't. Overall, both did an excellent job with my preference going towards Moffat. The yearly casting change was one of the negatives about RTD's era, along with the non-regen regen. For Moffat, I think his low points were relying on the reset button too much for both plot and characters (although I understand his reason behind it) and creating a couple of season long teasers/questions that didn't really go anywhere, even if I liked the 'answer' they could have been so much more.

It's very different to what a number of 'fans thought, i.e. that it was deliberately to get to the 'final' regen. This just goes to show that it was more about necessity and one choice leading logically to the next.

    • @lwaves
      @lwaves 6 років тому +1

      +The Cypher Yes, to him it was just a job that he did for RTD, he wasn't a big fan and had only seen a few episodes. Personally, I think part of it as well was that he wasn't prepared in anyway for the reaction it got. He didn't want the extra spotlights on him. Then there was all the behind the scenes stuff going on as well.
      It also didn't help that after his run finished, and he was doing other work, every interviewer would bring up DW instead of his current project. He was polite about it (as he always is) but clearly wasn't interested which some took as rudeness.

    • @michaeltownley9144

      He actually put himself forward for the role. He wasn't asked, he requested that he be considered, mainly because he liked RTD's work, and because he wanted to try a lighter role.
      In a radio interview he admitted that he clashed with certain (unnamed) individuals on the show, which is why he left so soon. He made a point of not naming them, because they weren't there to give their version of events. Shows what an incredibly courteous man he is.

    . He makes sure to say that he thinks the props are amazing design but they are massively impractical for television. He even said he Took his eye off the ball for the filming of that story because he was so nervous about the weeping angels story. I just love that he doesn’t cover his tracks and admits his failures and values them as lessons

    Incredible guy, and hilarious too. It's a shame he had to deal with so much negativity instead of dialogue. I know most of you won't probably hear this but... listen people, don't get divisive over trivialities, share some friendly fan discussions now and then, don't make comparisons about who's the best Doctor (you don't choose your favourite sons too? Or do you?) or who's great and who's not, don't go on blind hatred for the show just because it didn't exactly hit the notes you wanted, be critical in a constructive way. I applaud to the immense effort and criativity this Doctor Who team has put to deliver this complex, magical (and continuously evolving) universe to us and not everyone has the potential to deal with such writing luggage of 50+ years, so applaud to them too if you love the show, because without them, the show wouldn't be here for us and for people who need some light in a dark world. And last but not least, be respectful to each other and to this show. There's a lot of content variety and personal nostalgia and we know what that tends to do to people. You are better than that, fellow who fans, I know you are.

Moffat ruined DW forever. His episode by episode breakdown is just terrible. A terrible show runner, a bad writer under his own era, and a non-fan who hates Classic Who. I loathe him and his style of DW. Of course there are about 10 percent of his eight years that are good, even 10/10 episodes but that's not a great track record. He's the worst show runner in the history of TV.

    What Steven is saying about the DW fandom and social media, I really couldnt agree more!
    The online fandom has become so negative and toxic and nasty and its incredibly painful.
    The reason why Cons are different is just because the people spitting hateful comments online aren't actually fans of the show, they're just bored and need a way to make others feel bad. People pay huge amounts of money and time to go to Conventions out of love and passion. Hatred is just not strong enough, thank god.

      Of course it didn't help that at conventions he acted smug about his own writing, put down the classic series, ignored questions about his favorite classic series alien or monster and put as his favorite monster, his own creations, the Angels. He's the worst. Worst fan, worst show runner, worst DW writer under his own era. Under RTD, suspiciously, he wrote good stories.

    really enjoying this interview so far, i’m about halfway through. the questions were surprisingly ‘non-corporate’ (I guess), meaning they challenged Steven on some of his creative mistakes which I wouldn’t usually expect the BBC to do.
    I’ve had my ups and downs with Steven as showrunner, I loved S5, 6 and 10, series 8 was okay, but I found Series 7 and 9 to be the poorest series since the revival (I seriously cannot stand most of series 7 in particular). I must admit, I did enjoy Russell’s era a fair amount more overall but I don’t think Moffat did a bad job by any means, I just thought Russell’s was excellent while Moffat’s was pretty good. It’s been my favourite TV show for over a decade so it would take something really bad for me to ever stop watching.
    I gained a lot of respect for Steven through this interview, and I appreciate his honesty and the way he accepted a lot of his mistakes as mistakes, which contrasts the usual perception he gets from a lot of who fans.
