Update of things.
All hail the Moff and Twelve. DW magazine did a poll of best Doctor Who episodes, and well... go look!

I posted Chapter 3 of All Breakages Must Be Paid For. <3

The Netflix series of Avatar: The Last Airbender has an Official Teaser, and it looks incredible!
(If writing/acting etc lives up to the visuals, it will be stunning.)

I updated my Good Omens S2: The Big Tumblr Meta Post with yet more links! ^_^

The trauma of mediocrity. And the lack of intellect and romance in Chibnall Who. *g*
I'm suing Chibbs for damages.
Do eeeet!
You make a very good point about the silliness.
It's difficult to explain, but I know I'm right.
And I think there's a related argument to be made about eclecticism of tone and genre? Eclecticism between the episodes is of course key to Doctor Who. But I think eclecticism within the episodes is nearly as important. Thus very tonally tight episodes like Heaven Sent do feel less Who-ish to me.
'Tonally tight' - yes, that's the description I was searching for. It's not a criticism, because that's usually what makes those episodes stand out, but it makes them not quite fit in the 'regular' Doctor Who mould.
