I miss Clara :((((( But Jodie is SOOO fucking good in the Black Mirror episode "The Entire History of You". I can't wait for her series as the Doctor.
Maybe I'll give the series a chance again now. Matt Smith fell flat for me as a Doctor after Tennant and Eccleston so I stopped watching. I've heard good things about Capaldi so perhaps I should jump back in...
He posted a similar tweet during Hillary's campaign but the focus was on a female president instead of a female doctor.
Excited to check out the next series with new Who and showrunner. I liked Capaldi, but can't do Moffat, so I largely dropped off very quickly into his run.
Tried to stick with Capaldi, but just couldn't get into it. Haven't watched a new Who episode in years. This will definitely draw me back into it, especially with the new showrunner as well. Also. holy lol at the sexist fanboys. You'd think a show as deeply nerdy and sci-fi as this, maybe the fanbase would be a little less quick to judge someone. Nope!
Honestly don't understand Clara's appeal (everyone I've talked to just kept saying how cute she was which has no bearing on her performance or character) but to each their own I suppose.
Clara's relationship with the Twelfth Doctor was probably the most complex of any companion to date imo. There was just a really deep and special connection there, they'll likely always be my favorite TARDIS team for that reason.
I liked Clara because she was a teacher. Beyond that she was a good companion but not my favorite. Rose and Amy are pretty neck and neck.
Exactly this. And then she was also the best companion Capaldi's Doctor has had for that same reason for the antagonism that he feels like he should still have that same relationship with her but she is unable to see the same person which is an understandable human reaction
I've loved the last few years with Capaldi. It makes me sad that people stopped watching after series 8 and missed the incredible development his Doctor received across the next two years. Series 9 was an absolute stand out for me. Having said that, it feels like the era has come to a satisfactory end and I'm excited to see where JW and Chibbers takes it in the future. Series 11 cannot come soon enough!
