i actually truly genuinely dislike the “all of doctor who is bad” stance that seems popular nowadays. like people will be like “sure heaven sent or scherzo are Objectively Good but the rest of doctor who is Bad and i love it.” and sure, stories like heaven sent and scherzo stand out bc they do something different and do it well, but i’m of the belief that every doctor who story has something to offer, and just because something isn’t in the top 1% of all of dw doesn’t mean it’s Bad.

and that’s without even getting into how much i dislike praise/criticisms that begin and end with “this thing is Good/Bad.” that could mean one million things please say more

#this is definitely at least a bit pretentious cause like yeah sometimes people are just loosely sharing an opinion #but like the larger belief in dw circles that It’s All Bad just seems. untrue and uninteresting to me #and sure i understand the notion of ‘I didn’t say it was good i said i liked it’#but i also think like. well why did you like it? what about the media drew you in? are those aspects of storytelling that you value?#does that not transform into thinking it’s Good at some point?#none of this matters i just like to come on here and make it everyone else’s problem that i didn’t get a media studies degree #milk post
