Top Comments of this video!! :3
This is heart-breaking. I always remember marvelling at the doctor as a little girl and that no matter how hopeless the situation in the episode felt, the doctor would always find a way. The way that Donna speaks to him is truly upsetting to me because it doesn't even reflect the female fans perspectives. I really don't want them to degrade the doctor because of his gender. There's so much more to him that that and it does everyone a great disservice to boil everything down to that. Plus, I feel like it ignores the fact that he knows more than then because he's a well-travelled alien rather than just because he's a man.

Remember the scene in the 50th special where Clara is crying when she is sad that she is about to see the 11th destroy Gallifrey, the point about the Doctor choosing his name comes up. That is a powerful scene, where the Doctor is nudged in the right direction by the compassion of a companion.
Compare that to the ‘we know it all and you are just a dumb man’ scene from the 60th special.
Moffat wrote for everyone, RTD writes for himself.

The Doctor being spoken down to by a 16 year old is legitimately one of the most hilarious things I've ever seen, this is the Lonely God, a being so ancient that he has watched the universe be born and die and be born again, he has witnessed tragedies beyond comprehension, and has knowledge that was so great and terrible it overwhelmed a literal star, and this 16 year old kid is trying to explain to him that he knows nothing because he's a man, you are an ant talking down to a literal mountain, spend 3 billion years alone living and dying while punching through a wall or diamond and then tell me just how much you know what it means to let someone go!

What seems to have been forgotten by a lot of people that were excited about Russell T. Davies coming back is that some of the best episodes from his first time as show runner were actually written by other people including Steven Moffat. Begs the question if Moffat was the one who really needed to be brought back but not sure if Moffat would have played ball with BBC and disney.

Doctor Who The Star Beast Review of David Tennant's 60th Anniversary Special. Imagine being Russel T Davies, bringing back David Tennant and THIS is the quality of the episode you create. There are good scenes, but you can't enjoy them because you're always waiting for Russel T Davies to punch you in the face with the message again. This episode was so full of it, even the BBC's own review of it had to call it out. Now Davies attitude to creation has changed as I showcase towards the end of the video, but this time he's funded by Disney who are no doubt full steam ahead with his ideas! Combine the two and what you get is an episode of quick fire trash. The good scenes can't save the episode, the characters don't hold the show together because they were never written as people. They were written as a another element of the preaching. But what did you think of what you saw? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
