On Doctor Who 2022
Andrew Rilstone appears to have pulled his blog post on Doctor Who's Christmas Special. I was going to link to it but now can't.
For a long time I've struggled with Doctor Who. I've struggled with Moffat and the lack of narrative. I don't have much confidence that the new head writer will be any better than Moffat
Now seems like a good time to take a break. Perhaps that break will be long, perhaps permanent. Perhaps, if the reviews are surprisingly good, as Rilstone suggested in his now lost blog, I can watch all of Whitaker's episodes on Netflix over Christmas 2022. I expect she'll have quit by then.
But I'm quitting now.
EDIT:
The original Andrew Rilstone blog post is now back up. It may have been re-drafted a bit since I read it.
