Have you noticed that when an actor leaves Doctor Who, they become completely different looking? Tennant grew a beard, Smith got buff, and, oh, don't even get me started on Colin Baker. And now, it's starting to happen with Capaldi with him getting a little belly.

>>85311786
>complaining about Dr. Who having a catchphrase

It's like you don't even remember "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow", all 1.5 times he said it.

>>85311817
He never even said that exact line specifically

>>85311851
He did in 5 Docs

>>85311851
Doesn't he say it in The Sea Devils, or is it a back and forth between him and the Master?

>yfw comic con panel tomorrow
>"and we actually have one more member attending"
>"please welcome our special guest, jodie whittaker, who has brought a clip from series 11!"

>>85311908
I mean, he never specifically said "Reverse the polarity of the neutron flow". It was more stuff like "I've reversed the polarity." and occasionally "I've reversed the polarity of the neutron flow", but not that main line specifically

>>85311908
He says "I reversed the polarity of the neutron flow", and the Master's like "shit son, oh no you d'i'n't!"

What's your ideal spin-off /who/?

>metacrisis 10 and Rose grow a TARDIS and somehow get back into the universe
>they meet Jenny and Jackson Lake
>they form some sort of Torchwood task team
>"The Three Almost-Doctors"
Written by RTD, basically it's a noughties Who nostalgia show with Martha, Mickey, Jack and the Slitheen, Ood, Cybusmen etc all returning. It could be an alternative to Jodie Who for people who don't want to watch the main show anymore. It could also wrap up the unfinished SJA plotlines. You could throw in the odd crossover (maybe Clara and Ashildr or Bill and Heather turn up for an episode) but they'd be mostly self-contained.

>>85311992
He does on one occasion tell a UNIT soldier to "reverse the polarity", while he's dictating the construction of a device to him through a force field in The Daemons iirc, but not the whole line.

To be honest I found all of The Key to Time pretty forgettable. Most of Baker's episodes apart from his first three and final seasons, really, and even they have some duds imo.

>>85310966
Series 6A was generally pretty hype with the revelations and speculation. The threads immediately before LKH were memerrific. It started to die down because things weren't that interesting, we had some fairly comfy pre-threads in S6B as I recall although the lives were predictably disastrous.

It jumps between three subplots. One is about 12 in the future trying to deal with malfunctioning telepathy technology. One is about 11 in the present day, homeless, having bizarre visions.

>>85311113

What did it get wrong? I disagree with the sentiment that we shouldn't insult each other because shitposting is my favorite passtime but everything in the comic was spot on. The only thing you can blame it for is saying that we shouldn't use terms like neckbeard, bitch or cunt, but everything about the hypocrisy of using the word and who the word actually "harms" is spot on.

>>85312770

The 2016 gap never should have happened. They had a great 2 seasons and then wasted Capaldi's time. He could have been the Doctor for 4 seasons instead of 3. Coming back with a subpar season like 10 didn't help it's ratings either.

Go fuck yourself pal. It's hardly an uncommon opinion that those episodes are trash, and frankly the notion that you would defend them is laughable to me.

>>85313307

Monk trilogy was awful and Bill was a non-character whose only purpose was to remind everyone how diverse the show had become.

8 and 9 didn't really have any bad episodes, maybe less than stellar but nothing offensively bad (except Kill the Moon) and had a lot of great ones like Mummy, Listen and Heaven Sent. Even the less good ones were still great, like the heist episode.

Looking back on Clala now, I actually like her a lot more now that /tv/'s group think is wearing off. Clara was what I wanted from Rory (that exchange with 11 in The Girl Who Waited when he said 11 was turning him into the Doctor gave me chills but never went anywhere) and River but never got because Moffat had his head up his ass with le epic twists. A character who travels with the Doctor and ends up becoming like him too much. She was also the only romance with the Doctor that made sense. She wasn't a naive chav, or some convoluted half-time lady criminal, she was just someone who stayed a very long time with the doctor until the two started getting dependent on each other. Rewatching 8 and 9 and seeing all the subtle romantic clues like Clara telling 12 she loved him or 12 saying he thought they were a couple endeared her to me more now than when I first saw it.

So yeah, 8/9 were pretty good seasons. 10 was filled with nonsense and had a really bad middle part. I also don't understand the fascination with Nardole, call my taste bad or whatever, but every time I see that freakish ugly face I wonder why the actor wasn't aborted.

What would your reaction be if Jodie Whittacker's Doctor dressed in fashions reminiscent of those worn by the woman in either the 1920's or the 1960's and the new theme for the show is a snazzy jazz remix of the main theme?

>Zygon was alright
Zygon was fucking trash. It's some of the worst writing in the show to date. Characters are reduced to utter retards so the plot can move forward, the plot is utter nonsense that doesn't even try to remain within the show's established rules, tonally it's miles off the base of Doctor Who, and the message is so hamfisted and terribly delivered that it makes me embarrassed for agreeing with it. Harness cannot write for Doctor Who, as he has proven time and time again.
>Face the Raven was a bit boring
It was the most inoffensive of the bunch, and admittedly has a decent start. But calling it good is a stretch.
>Hell Bent was fine
Nah. It was a terrible send-off to a companion I didn't even dislike like the majority of this general seems to.

Needs less vibraphone. It sounds too much like a film noir spin on Doctor Who. Maybe go for big band instead and we'll have something.

>>85313619

Not him but Raven and Bent were great. Zygon's second part was good, the first part was meh.

9 was my favorite Series as well. 10's a close second.

I think I'd describe them as:
8 was the least consistent but had the most best episodes.
9 was the most consistent and was largely inoffensive.
10 was the best on average but dragged for a while because Monks.

>>85313720
Moffat, I liked his episodes under RTD, and his initial series were alright, but around 7 and 8 he started to get to clever for his own good. 9 and 10 did pick up though, so I'm hopeful for the christmas special

What if the Christmas special with the First Doctor was in black and white?

>>85313792
>Zygon's second part was good
No it wasn't. I'll let you people enjoy Raven and Bent, since admittedly there are redeeming qualities in them, and I can see how and why Bent can be divisive. But Zygon was pure unfiltered trash from start to finish and I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone can think otherwise. It is the sole worst episode of the show to date in my eyes.

>>85313795
Oooooh, I thought you didn't miss Clara.

>>85313590
>Monk trilogy was awful
It was, but it is nothing compared to the slew of garbage episodes that both Series 8 and 9 had on offer, (Robot of Sherwood, Kill the fucking Moon, In the Forest of the Night, Under the Lake, Before the Flood, The Zygon Invasion/Inversion, Hell Bent).

>Bill was a non-character whose only purpose was to remind everyone how diverse the show had become.
If you want to be taken seriously, stop reciting this trite. It's simply untrue, and Bill fits the "Bill" of the traditional Who companion better than Clara could've ever hoped to.

>but every time I see that freakish ugly face I wonder why the actor wasn't aborted.

It's a figure of speech pal. Sorry if I made you feel insecure about your taste in TV.

>>85313834
I can't see why you think it's the worst episode of the show. Even if some of the set up was mediocre, the metaphor for war- two boxes that at the end turn out to not be anything at all- is so perfect and to the Doctor's character that it only heighten's his speech.

I genuinely don't understand why you hate it so much. It'd be fair hatred if there was absolutely nothing to like about the episode, but the last third of it is pretty GOAT.

>>85314575
9 was definitely consistent, but it certainly wasn't "great," it was consistently shit

>>85314601
You fucking take that back

Deep Breath is still one of the weaker episodes after 3 years. It's just so wrong tonally and it's paced so badly it hurts. Actual story starts into 40 minutes and before that it's mostly 12th acting like an idiot and slapstick humour with Strax. Last 10 minutes dialogue is great but I had a strong feeling like it had to be attached to a real episode and not THIS.

>>85314601
I disagree

>>85314717
>It's just so wrong tonally

like most of series 8 and 9?

Nothing to do with that, and there is plenty of running. They're just a mess of bad ideas that don't fit Doctor Who or didn't fit Doctor Who for being poorly executed.
Feels like the entire writing staff grew cynical for those series and it really showed in the scripts.

>>85314827
In his defense, Deep Breath did have incredibly weird moments of atonality.

>>85315284
Did anyone watch Deep Breath in the cinema? I didn't although I did for the 50th.
For some reason, those long sections of random gags (like Strax's checkup) felt like they'd make more sense when settled in for the long haul with a huge all-ages crowd of other viewers tittering at things.

>>85315431
yeah but claras hot

>>85315502
Deep breath's pacing is actually pretty movie like, come to think of it. lots of slow moments where characters interact in entertaining ways that don't necessarily progress the plot

>>85315502
I did. I was pretty pissed off actually, since the cinema version was in 21:9, but since they didn't film it like that, you just got a cropped version of the TV broadcast.
I think you're right about the gags though, it definitely feels like it was written with it being shown in cinemas in mind.

To me, Deep Breath felt like an 11th Doctor episode until the last 10 minutes.

This would be based if true because Moffat is the best, but he's only what, ~1200 years old at this point? And he was around 900 during RTD's run apparently. Unless, of course, you count the time in the dial which is stupid.

Is it a new thing to refer to females as actors instead of actresses? Is it an attempt to be gender neutral or has actor always been a correct word to use to refer to a female?

Edge, have you ever made any /who/ meme drawings?

>>85318218
To be fair, I don't even think Heather's name is mentioned in The Doctor Falls, and Gomez wasn't in The Pilot, so it's not like she even had to pay any attention to it.

>>85318182
Yes, I come to /who/ all the time and regularly gush over the last few series as some of the best television around because I hate Doctor Who. I've listened to weeks worth of audios because I hate Doctor Who. I've watched countless hours of Classic Who just because gosh, I hate it so much. I've hated it ever since I saw The Greatest Show in the Galaxy on repeat TV as a child, hated it even more when I got into McGann and Tom Baker, then hated it especially when Eccleston came on air. Me rolling my eyes at some of RTD's story elements totally means I hate Doctor Who.
