I think what I really want is for the current Doctor to be less freaking emo.
Amen! I thought, upon first seeing Ten, that the lingering "waaaaaahhhh" went away with the regeneration (and hell, even Nine didn't get this bad). I thought "Hey, look! Cute! Fun!" and that the whole Harriet Jones thing was just a flukey regeneration thing. And then what we got, well...there's a reason I stopped writing Ten!fic, which was basically that my idea of Ten and Rusty's turned out to be radically different, and I don't especially enjoy writing characters who start shouting on a dime.
I got that far. That, in part, was what made me stop watching.
Yeah, the whole "Every companion has a family" thing really needs to go away. We've seen it once. We don't need to see them go through the same things every single time there's a new companion. Enough with this "grounding the series via companion families" nonsense--I'd like my show a little less grounded, actually (especially if it means we get the hell away from Earth, hahaha)
...I AM NEVER WATCHING THIS SHOW AGAIN.
Yeah, that'll be jumping the shark for sure. If that happens, I'll definitely be burying my head in old-school/Big Finish, possibly indefinitely.
