"As a piece of entertainment it's just not good enough".
Sean discusses the Doctor Who Christmas Special (2023). After deciding to give the special a chance, he was left feeling very underwhelmed.
Discussion Points:
-The waste of the goblins.
-The poor pace of the show.
-Sean compares this episode to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Final Destination (2000) and Hugh Grant in the 1990's.
-The small scale of the episode.
-The cardinal sin of film/television is making something boring.
-The squandering of interesting ideas.
Raised Questions:
-Why is RTD trying to emulate Moffat's writing?
-What was the point in all the pointless time-jumps?
-Remember engaging Doctor Who stories?
-Why is this era tripping over itself to validate the Chibnall era?
-Do they expect people to actually flock to this?
Thanks for Listening!
