>>125814946Tired. Got around to thinking about how I just kinda dropped off of Doctor Who, and I'm not entirely sure why. I think a big part of it was subtle frustration with several elements of the show. The often poorly constructed long term storylines, the overemphasis and repetition of dramatic points, the overhyping of the Doctor as the bestest evar, etc.
But primarily, I really hate that the show extremely rarely focuses in the TARDIS as a character. In the well over 50 years the franchise has been around, there's only like five or so stories that are actually about her, even though she's legit the most fascinating character of the whole IP. Even after the beloved The Doctor's Wife, the best we get is a token moment of her expressing herself, usually in the form of trolling someone. TARDIS is best girl, and she's always relegated to being the bus.
Sorry, I know you don't much care for DW, Storyteller, but I really felt the need to vent about that for some reason.
