Members Vee Posted November 14, 2019 Members Share Posted November 14, 2019 Evidently a writer from Emmerdale is on the new series staff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted November 14, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2019 Maxine Alderton is a very good writer (although she mostly became known for writing a lot of material for a toxic and abusive m/m ship). I wish she was working for a better producer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted November 23, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) I'm really trying but I just don't have any enthusiasm left for the new show anymore. First world problems and all, but as someone who has been a big fan since my early teens, not caring more makes me feel sad.

Members Faulkner Posted November 23, 2019 Members Share Posted November 23, 2019 Same. My disillusionment goes back to the late Matt Smith era. I know a lot of people loved the 12/Bill/Nardole season, but the damage for me had been done by then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted November 27, 2019 Members Share Posted November 27, 2019 I'm also pretty apathetic about the Chibnall era. But I love the show and like the cast, so I'll give it a chance to improve. The BBC is aware of its meh critical response but it's still doing gangbusters numbers; I am hoping that means he may go eventually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted November 27, 2019 Members Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) I didn’t think Toby Whithouse’s episodes were consistently amazing, and I’m not sure he’d have been up for it, but I think he’d have been a far better shepherd for the series (even just based on his Being Human work). Witty with an edge but not nearly as up his own ass as Moffat. I’m not sure when Toby’s latest BBC series is supposed to air.

Members Faulkner Posted January 5, 2020 Members Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Ratings weren’t great for the premiere on BBCA (0.19 demo, 790k viewers), even accounting for the natural live audience erosion we see for all of TV. BBCA used to really make an event out of every DW premiere, and their lead-up to this year’s felt very muted. The BBC doesn’t allow for much advance warning for premiere dates, so I’m sure they were a bit hamstrung, especially with the premiere happening over the holidays. It’s silly that they’ve effectively ceded Xmas when DW has owned it over the years. Edited January 5, 2020 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
