I don't wanna see this show die. We need a writer who understands the dynamic of Doctor Who. I'm not mad about the gender change or the companions, however the way the story is written and flows is terrible. I like the companions but honestly there's too many of them and the story gets sloppy because of it. You now have to fit all of their individuality and sub plots to the main plot and It just waters down the episodes/season. You're not really getting any character development at least not extensively enough to see them grow into a great character. I'm disappointed in the story telling not the actors. And keep personal politics/agendas out of it. Controversie is great when you're not forcing it down your audience's throat.
