@Kermit1 Yeah, it suck when things have that problem. I liked pretty much all the reboot ones up until Jodie Whittaker, although I'm pretty sure that was 'cause they changed the writer to someone who didn't seem to be very good.

@TeaCatherine ya... she sucked tbh... The new Doctor (not Tennant) seems cool.

@Kermit1 I honestly don't know who that is? I don't follow TV news.

Matt Smith was the best Doctor, FIGHT ME!

@Kermit1 I found Jodie Whitaker to be great though, she was full of charm and energy needed to be a Doctor and she also made a nice counter following Peter Capaldi's grump. If you watch Adult Life Skills a film she did before becoming The Doctor you can see she was really perfect casting.

The problem was they went from Steve Moffat as the head writer (the guy behind Sherlock) who brought so many great ideas to the show to the guy who did the Who spin off Torchwood yet was running out of ideas then but they didn’t want someone from outside so you could feel the lack of freshness of energy behind the show. That’s why I’m in two minds about Davis returning, he’s a great writer still as his recent show It's A Sin proves but Who is show always needing an injection of ideas and energy to the writing. Plus I’m being cautious from having Americans involved in it now, I can see it being like Black Mirror a very British show that once Americans got involved a lot of it was suddenly set in America despite it being a show built on British snarky cynicism.

@TeaCatherine The new guy is Ncuti Gatwa who seems cool. He done a lot of serious theatre acting but I’ve watched him in Sex Education and he’s got the chops and the energy to be a Doctor. Although out of everyone from that show to become a Doctor I would have suspected it would be the weird girl who writes alien erotica instead of him.

@jump Ah, thanks. I'll probably start watching it again, did not know the previous guy did Torchwood, would you say that was worth a watch?

@TeaCatherine I stopped watching it before it ended as I wasn't hugely impressed with it yet I didn't think it was bad. So if you want more Who then go for it, I just don't think it needs to be on top of someone's list to watch though.

@jump Oh, in that case, it can go on my list of things to watch if I have absolutely nothing to do.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Really? Oh my god! The show should do just fine then.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika I’m gonna have fun reading it lol.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Thank you for telling me that before hand, oh boy what this will be.

@Eagly They handled that better than Ninjago they just made Zane a robot instead... Though Season 5 is amazing and if he wasn't a robot that amazing Season wouldn't be real and I'd be sad.

@Eagly Kinda like Zane in Season 3. Oh, btw I got the Season number mixed up, it's Season 4 not 5.

@Eagly the second reboot after the Movie was a real decline imo

@Eagly and it's original (kinda). One of the new Seasons had crystals as a gimmick and that showed they can flex the style a bit.

@Eagly It's probably more rewatchable than most new episodes of Spongebob.

@Eagly I think that was a plot of a new episode.

@Eagly more like 1000. I wonder how the Simpsons are doing lol (never seen the show just the memes).

I decided to rewatch Arrow, and season 1 is a lot better than I remember. Really wish the show would have kept the same tone as the first few seasons ( and season five), instead of whatever the heck seasons 6 and 7 were.

@Colonel_Mustache They should have probably done less is more with that scene. Leaving things to the imagination is almost better than anything you can show.

tbh kinda a shame the show's TV-MA, I'm getting kinda tired of cool concept shows (like this one) going mature. Watch what you want though, I got Chuck still.

@Colonel_Mustache I recommend this video. It doesn't have much to do with "less is more" but it gives a kinda interesting look at editing and "pacing".
