We have a LONG wait until DW returns to TV! So tell me, what are YOUR unpopular DW opinions!?

For me, I LOVED the first series of both 12 and 13. They were trying new things and I really appreciated the freshness. It felt more creatively honest to me than the follow-up series.

    13 was a lot like 6 in that her expanded universe material is way, way better than her TV episodes. Seriously, if you haven’t read “Star Tales,” it has some of the most amazing Doctor Who stories ever, especially the one with Elvis, which made me weep.

    And The Witchfinders has an amazing novelization that really dives into gender roles much deeper than the episode itself, thanks to 13’s inner monologue.

    And the Doctor Who fanzine “More of the Universe” adds tons of stories that fix Thasmin, and it was endorsed by Jodie herself.

    Chibnall is just really bad at writing the character, in my opinion.
