Well then.

*throws hands up in defeat*

“Sitting here, right now, just before the [series eight] finale shooting block, I’ve figured out the cliffhanger to the penultimate episode of the next series,” he wrote.

“And it’s a whopper. Ohh, I don’t think you’ll see this coming!”

Okay I am honestly getting really tired of all these dramatic big epic twists, turns, and finales.
I am actually starting to feel numb to them. Because it’s like he’s trying to make it bigger and bigger and it’s at a point where it’s so ridiculous that I just /DON’T CARE/ at all any more. I just want stuff to be fun and simple again.
I just want Doctor Who.
Please. For the love of god, just give me Doctor Who.
I don’t need these mind boggling thrillers leading to awe inducing super smart finales that take multiple seasons to reach all the time.

^^^^^^^ All of this.

He needs to be stopped.

y’all think it’s a coincidence that we went from the variation of a young working class companion and her poc working class boyfriend, a very visibly Not Straight companion, a woc companion and an older, lower middle class companion, to two young, thin, white, well-off middle class companions and also a white middle class boyfriend

Non-Whovian friend: I just watched a really cool episode of Doctor Who the other day!
Very Whovian me: Which one?
friend: The world was ending.

reasonable issues to have with river song:

  • she was said to be bisexual but this was never stated in-narrative
  • her narrative rarely focuses on anything but her connection to the doctor instead of exploring things that got less development (like her job as an archeologist)
  • Her story arc drags on for longer than necessary

not reasonable issues to have with river song

  • “She’s too old!”
  • “She’s a mary sue!”
  • “her catchphrase is stupid”
  • “The Doctor only loves rose!”
