Fun, just pure, absolute fun.
I absolutely love that RTD didn't hold back, he's mentioned the Rani and talked about the Timeless Child in one episode, a monster made of bogeys and talking babies.
Before anyone says that's ridiculous, or too silly, New Who started with farting aliens and burping bins. This is RTD, same as he ever was, back in full force, again we've had competently written dialogue, a grounded companion and plenty of mysteries. In fact, plenty is an understatement, I'd sound like a conspiracy theorist trying to tie together all the things being setup so far. I only hope it will be resolved well.
The Disney money shows, Doctor who has never looked this good and it all feels so fresh. I'm positively buzzing for the rest of this season and this start has definitely exceeded my expectations.
