Doctor Who: The Gatwa Years - Episode 01
The new era of the show begins with...An average episode. It was fun, sure, but nothing special. And those babies...Ugh, the uncanny valley!

Doctor Who: The Hartnell Years Season 01 Serial 03
A decent short bite story. I admit it was rather chaotic and difficult to follow. Perfectly skippable.

Doctor Who: The Tom Baker Years Season 15 Serial 6
It was a good Gallifrey story, seeing the Doctor acting mad with power was fun, but unfortunately, it got ruined by the ending. I loathe "companion leaves out of love" exits, they're boring and unoriginal, it was extremely out of place for a character like Leela, especially with another character she barely interacted with. It could have been a 4/5 story. but the ending removes half-a-star.
Doctor Who: Past Doctor Adventures
What the hell was this? This made me so uncomfortable due to the sheer horniness and attempt at being edgy. Besides, I didn't want to learn that the author's fetish are dark-skinned girls, thank you very much.
Doctor Who: 60th Anniversary Specials n.X
They did a good job with the colourisation, and fixed a few pacing issues of the original serial, although the new soundtrack was a bit too loud.
Doctor Who: The Hartnell Years Season 01 Serial 02
The debut of the fascist pepper potts. While being a good story, I think it should have had less parts.
Doctor Who: The Capaldi Years - Christmas Special 2017
My favourite Christmas Special, it was sooo good! Despite I'd prefer if the Twelfth Doctor regenerated in The Doctor Falls, this story was enjoyable and didn't ruin the previous series finale. Delighted to see the First Doctor and Bill again, I was sad of course for the regeneration scene, since the Twelfth Doctor became my favourite NuWho Doctor by then.
Doctor Who: The Hartnell Years Serial 01/The Schiavone Brothers' Classic Doctor Who Showcase
Ah, the one that started it all. While many people find the other 3 episodes mediocre, this serial was overall very good. Funny enough, the pacing here was that much messy compared to future stories, just a lovely serial about cavemen.
Doctor Who: The Sixth Doctor Adventures - The Quin Dilemma
A really cool audio drama, a good way to start this "40th anniversary special" of the Colin Baker era. This will be fun, I'm sure...
Doctor Who: The Gatwa Years - Christmas Special 2023
The Fifteenth Doctor era starts rather well, with a fun special, and the introduction of Ruby, loving her already. Loving how her and the Doctor bond over the fact they're both orphans. I'm curious though who Mrs. Flood is...

Doctor Who: The 60th Anniversary Specials n.3
So, here we are, the final Special. And it was amazing. I found rather dull the Toymaker's debut serial when I watched it last summer (but the fact it was a lost one may have influenced my judgement), but here he's incredible! So manic, hilarious and creepy, his reveal scene with Michael Gough's Toymaker and Hartnell glitching along with the children's choir was awesome. Of course, the Toymaker's attack at UNIT Tower was hilarious. Villains dancing on pop music, my favourite running gag.
Despite the controversy, I actually like the bigeneration twist. I was feeling so sad, since it was the first regeneration I saw on broadcast and then...Poof, the Fifteenth Doctor is here and so is Fourteen.
In the end, it was a nice conclusion, at the last the Doctor can catch a break.

The Virgin New Adventures n.1
You see, when I talked about this book in the r/Doctorwho Discord server, people warned me about this book...Now I see why.
This book was...Yuck. It barely felt like Doctor Who, scantily clad 13-year-old girls (and if you, who are probably in their 20s felt uncomfortable, you can imagine how someone who was much near that age felt), Gilgamesh groping someone else's wife, and worst of all...The Doctor scolds Ace for being rightfully disgusted at Gilgamesh's revolting and paedophilic behaviour. What the devil am I reading?!?! I've never watched a Seventh Doctor serial before, but even I could tell he was very out of character!
Then I found that the author of this travesty seemed to dislike the Seventh Doctor and Ace. Suddenly, many things made sense. Do I recommend reading this book? HA! No.
But there's a redeemable trait for this book. It boosted my confidence in writing, my Doctor Who fanfics are way better than this rubbish.
I hope the next one is better, Uncle Terry, don't disappoint me!

Doctor Who: The 60th Anniversary Specials n.2
Second round, here we go! Despite being disappointed that it wasn't a Multi Doctor story, it technically was one. All of it had a strong "Midnight" vibe, which is really lovely.
Also, this Special made me rethink the Timeless Child twist, RTD made me see that it was after all a cool concept...Not executed that well. And then, the final surprise...Wilf is back (For the last time, unfortunately).
I was so invested in this story, it never happened before, maybe because it was new or something, but it was fun. There are moments here that made me...
Giggle.
Doctor Who: The 60th Anniversary Specials n.1
Ah, the first new Anniversary Special that I saw since I became a Whovian...And it was FANTASTIC! I loved every single minute of it, it didn't feel like an hour had passed at all! The new arrangement of the theme song was great, and Tennant was magnificent, it felt like it was a different incarnation from the Tenth Doctor.
Even if in certain parts the plot felt a bit forced (like the reason Donna survived with her memories restored, I mean, I knew she wasn't going to die at the first special, but still), overall it was very enjoyable. What a great way to start this Anniversary trilogy!
