[QUOTE="Jock Ewing Fan, post: 401559, member: 40536"] The main DW site doesn't report ratings anymore. It doesn't matter to me one way or the other, but I find it curious. I haven't seen the new series, but from what I read, a few impressions: Two episodes have been described as "Doctor-Lite" In an 8 episode season, why? Ruby seems to be written like a sci-fi Disney Princess. Doesn't matter to me, but I did think from the beginning that Disney would not be a silent partner. Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor seems to combine the Tom Baker/Graham Williams era humor with The Davison era Doctor who was sometimes less than overwhelming in resolving the main story. Not a bad strategy at all, but my sense is that the scripts haven't quite figured out his Doctor yet. Not relying much on past adversaries - this is good, too many have been overused, but we need to see some who have not yet appeared since the re;launch - Rani, Meddling Monk, Tobias Vaughn, Black Guardian, Valeyard, Sutek just to name a few. Biggest concern is wha Disney thinks, and how it will effect the future of the show after the "New" season 2 [/QUOTE]
