I hope you rewatch, because want to understand what it is that's bugging me (apart from Kerblam!). It's just not gelling for me. It's just *there* and it's fine, but if they changed the whole line-up tomorrow I'd... almost miss it. *shakes show* Well, you asked for positivity, so that's what I've got! A collection of good bits. (Why do I have this icon? That is literally never me, lol. Anyway . . . )
I think the way watching Five has helped, even more than in any particular similarity between Five and Thirteen, is that there is some similarity there, and it took three seasons for Five to gel for me, even while those seasons contained so many of my favorite episodes I've seen in Classic Who so far. So . . . no, I don't think I have anything gel-like to say about Thirteen, but I am now more ok with that fact. (Also, to a lesser extent, I think we're all forgetting just how checked out we were for seasons eight and nine. Like, yes, I am definitely more checked out now, but it was pretty darn bad. I remembering finishing Dark Water/Death in Heaven and literally going, ummmm, so that was a thing, I guess.)
