Does the whole 'bigeneration' thing as an introduction for Ncuti Gatwa make anyone else feel icky? Because I definitely feel like they did Gatwa dirty with a botched transition between regenerations because people are getting a liiiiiiittle too nostalgic with the whole RTD/Tennant thing.
Tennant is a brilliant actor, and I'm not trying to downplay everything he's done for the show, but by leaving Tennant alive, they robbed Gatwa of an introduction that shows respect to his iteration of his character, instead leaving him to be the Random New Person while The Real Doctor is yet to come into the completion of his arc.
It's just a disappointing diversion from giving Gatwa's Doctor the focus and development he deserves.
Some thoughts about The Giggle:
HUH?? WAH?? WAHUH?? AAAAAAAA!?!?! Okay, this episode was super weird, and I'm not sure I liked it. This just proves that every doctor who writer does weird ass retcons for the sake of a more interesting plot/character development. It makes sense that we got multiple doctors as many other anniversary specials do that, but man, was this was weird. Them defeating the Toymaker felt so anticlimactic. I'm glad the doctor did self therapy, I guess. I liked the ending scene it was very sweet. I'm excited for Ncuti Gawa he seems fun. As one final thought: I think Russell T Davis just hates seeing companions get abandoned by David Tennant and likes to make up excuses for him to stay with them forever.
