Doctor Woke: The 60th Anniversary Disappointment
I'm p retty disappointed with the first part of the Doctor Who 60th anniversary special. I wanted to watch The Doctor and Donna in a cool reunion plot. I really wanted to relive the glory days of the modern show! Instead, they've retconned one of the best stories from that time, the Doctor-Donna! This was beyond distastefully handled. Too much woke "the message" bullshit that was expected to hold up the "plot" It felt a lot like Star Trek: Discovery in that regard... Those on the internet who are of similar opinions to my own on this matter are being shot down and gas lit. "Doctor Who has always been progressive" "What about Captain Jack Harkness?" are their arguments. Firstly, there is a difference between the show being progressive like it was and what we have now. What we had previously were subtle hints here and there that were never the focal plot points or take-away messages from the episodes. You could take or leave the message...
