Sucks but they legit need to get away from the visions of Davies and Moffat, I loved them in their time but new takes and perspectives will hopefully give the series new legs because the universe has so much that could be explored

Does their studio really think there's only two good showrunners in the world?
This same bullshit is ruining Hollywood, too:
- I need an actor: Call one of these ten people
- I need a director: Call one of these five people
- I need a voice actor: Call an expensive famous actor, instead of a voice actor with decades of experience in the industry
As old as I am, started watching who in my late 20s few years after the reboot, I agree. They were what was needed then, but not what is needed now.
I haven't even finished Jodie's episodes, been sort of not as grabbed by them or the companions. I didn't even enjoy Capaldi overly but I liked what they tried with it but something didn't quite hit the mark. Maybe need to rewatch them I stick to earlier ones usually.
It's a shame. I enjoyed Ncuti Gatwa's performance and I thought the writing was getting better in the last season, but I guess it was too little too late.
Same, I enjoyed most of the Gatwa run. It had some terrible episodes, as all Who runs do, and the rushed finale was a tragedy, but I was really looking forward to a third Gatwa series.
If we had gotten one more planned as final Gatwa series and then he left, Davies left, and we put the show out to pasture for a little while, then I think everyone would be fine with that. But as it is now? It's messy. It's ugly. And whomever picks up the torch is going to have a rough start.
