A small amount of moaning here so far:

Mainly people saying they couldn't give a frick because the writing is so bad they haven't watched it in years.
Really struggling myself to give a frick about this since wokewashing is a staple feature of almost all creatively bankrupt productions now, but I'm sure there's some nerds somewhere having a meltdown.

This is me.
Doctor Who was my favourite tv show as a kid and i watched every episode of the 2005 relaunch. Sure, a lot of episodes were shit, but every season had one or two episodes that were some of the best written sci-fi on television. And overall it was a lot of fun.
Stopped watching four episodes into the female doctor's run because the drop in writing quality was astonishing. The guy who took over as showrunner had already written episodes of the show and most of them were shit.
Add two out of three companions being poorly written characters and a bunch of woke shit and i finally stopped watching.
Stopped watching a kid's show i was still watching well into adulthood.
Hmm.
