Review of The Reality War by doctortor

This review contains spoilers!

I'm met with such disappointment for a show that has given me so much in the past... this episode was a mess. So much was happening, too fast, and yet nothing at all was actually happening simultaneously. It was hard to watch. Every character was flat and lacked character development... I was excited for Anita! and then all she did was hold a door open... I was excited for Belinda! but we never really got to know her, her character wasn't herself for the entire 7th episode and then she was shut in a box for most of this one... I was excited to for the Rani! and then, she just gets eaten?? and omega was defeated with such ease?... also, I didn't like this regeneration, it felt unnecessary and lacked depth and emotion... I have cried for past doctors and stories and this entire season did not deliver. I'm concerned for the future of doctor who. There was too much going on and multiple stories happening within one episode, they needed to have more than 8 episodes in this season if they really wanted to do as much as they did. Instead, a bunch of stuff happened but nothing was really explained, nothing was sat with and understood. Just everything all at once... messy.
