Wasn't the joke that it's the same Doctor all the time? Kinda like James Bond is played by different actors but it's the same character?
Either way, I give about as much fucks about the show as I do about Sherlock, the tumblr shipping show.

James Bond is a bit more fuzzy in that regard since the movies don't really care a lot about continuity, especially not between movies with different Bond actors.

The Doctor on the other hand has always been supposed to be the same guy, and his species' regeneration ability effectively exists to explain actor changes in-universe.

He's a Time Lord, which are basically immortal human-like dudes with shitty 1-ups that cause you to respawn with a different body.

He also fights the same three bad guys over and over again every season and travels around with supermodels plus James Corden.

And whenever he manages to defeat one of those three bad guys, they'll just get replaced with an alternate reality/timeline/whatever version that's pretty much the exact same thing.

The writers also love to borrow new bad guys from somewhere else, be it Lovecraft, SCPs or fucking Slenderman.

Also, the showrunner is best known these days for endlessly patting himself on the back. Both Sherlock and DW get very self-referential at times to their detriment.

I couldn't even be arsed finishing this season. Even by Moffat era standards, it was shite. Boring leads, cringe humor, dull as dishwater stories.
It's been pretty dismal since season 5, with the occasional good story here and there, and even before that it was never as well written as the Seventh Doctor years.

Who was it aimed at to begin with? At least I can jerk off to the latest chick, but only in stills because I'm not gay enough to watch this shit even ironically.
