He makes a good point Doctor Who needs to get back to its traditional, definitely-non-feminist female characters from the 60s, 70s and 80s. You know, characters built around traditional feminine gender roles like maths genius, scientist, courageous reporter, or baseball bat wielding pyromaniac.
It's really telling how the most traditionally feminine companions were the most disliked by fans and only stayed for a season or less. (Polly, Dodo, etc.)
Susan: First serial and the second she sees her grandfather being attacked by a caveman twice her size, she is on that dudes back and while I can't confirm, it really looks to me as if she went straight for the Tyson. Action girls from day one.
It's not spelt out, but I always assumed the Silence having partial control over River Song during her conditioning may have led her to be sabotaging the TARDIS unknowingly as she was trying to avoid blowing it up. Or there was a silence in the control room that we couldn't see
@@TheDarkWhovian Definitely, personally it never bothered me not getting an explicit answer. I just distinctly remember people constantly bringing it up for all of Moff's tenure.
@@Faction.Paradox As do I, the forum rooms in those days were crazy right?! I still remember the Omega rumours for series 5. I still think it's a shame Moffat never got that fourth series with Matt to better tie everything in together, but still ToTD I felt gave us a satisfying conclusion to the mystery of who 'left the bath running'.
I love how these kinds of people (Bowelstreak, Will of the Fans, Reaper...) call everyone else 'snowflakes,' when they all contributed to the Samaritan's phone lines crashing on Christmas Day, seconds after Ncuti was seen, dancing in his kilt.
My name is also Will, I'm ginger, have a beard and a deep love for the Moffat era. I feel like I've just watched the bad future bizarro dimension version of myself 😅
I really don't understand how people can call Chibnall era woke with straight face when it has the most right-wing moral in a decade on some stories (not dissing on actors but a woman lead doesn't do everything). And at the same time they morn the loss of the Moffat era with anticapitalist stories, antiwar stories, queer couples and characters. It's weird.
I actually don't mind the Chibnall Era for the most part, but I'm genuinely intrigued here! Which parts struck you as right wing? To be clear, I'm not trying to argue with you at all, anything of that nature went straight over my head, and now you got me curious. 😂
@@bennettnez4711 Kerblam's "the systems aren't the problem, how people use the system is the problem" moral, where the villain of the piece is a disgruntled worker and the automated systems of the amazon stand-in are a victim stand out a ton in this respect, given the series right before it had Oxygen, a story where capitalist systems literally killed workers explicitly because it was cheaper than keeping them alive. Notably, Kerblam takes place in a world where robots do the vast majority of the work and yet people still need money from jobs to pay for basic resources, and never does it come up that maybe people shouldn't need to work for a living if there's so little work that needs doing. It might not be extremely conservative, but Kerblam's take on capitalism and automation is very much the conservative "well the status quo isn't perfect but we can't fundamentally change this system, and the people who want to are dangerous radicals going too far" take.
@cfsfilms5091 Oh yeah, that totally makes sense. I just looked at the whole situation as obviously dystopian and strange and bad without needing it to be explained mid episode because it was self-evident. Then the choice to have the "villain" be a disgruntled worker was interesting to me because it wasn't black and white, so it added nuance to the story. I definitely was rooting for the workers, but then wanted the postal one to be stopped because it was costing lives. I agree that I wish the Doctor could have easily changed all of the current socio-economic trends of the universe at the time easily, but that would be hard to do without a Moffat power of love twist like the algorithm in Boom getting busted by dad love. I can only handle so much of that sort of thing anyways. I'm OK with The Doctor having limits, and stories ending on more of a grey note or with a high death count. It reminds me more of the classic series. I'll absolutely agree that on the surface it was weird though, they could have been blatantly preachy with a "good" message like most of the other episodes in the series.
I believe the kilt that Ncuti wore at Christmas has been identified as being made in Cameron hunting tartan. As a person who is a proud half scotsman and who has proudly worn a kilt for numerous formal family events it annoys me no end to see so many of These reactionary grifters trying to claim that Kilts are somehow not manly. Kilts have been worn by people of both sexes for centuries and served as the actual battle dress of Scottish warriors for a very long time. It's bad enough that these idiots keep trying to fuel there bs culture war by pretending that Dr Who wasn't progressive until now but now they have to try and drag Kilts of all things into the argument.
"The woke are erasing western traditionalism and culture" *sees a kilt* "RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
Because people want to forget what history was really like and use it to fit there views these same people also don't like to talk about how almost every Roman Emperor was bi and wore what would nowadays be classified as dresses if these people actually went back in time they would be so angry
11:16 I don’t know about corsets but men by today’s standards looked much more feminine back in the 18th century. They wore coats with little skirts, straps and high heels. Just look at King Louis XIV of France and he looks super feminine! The term drag queen actually comes from Shakespeare from the fact that the actors would drag their dresses over the stage.
The earliest reference to "drag", in that sense, is the mid/late 19th century, more than 300 years after Shakespeare's death. It may well derive from the fact that the performers' flamboyant dresses would "drag" across the stage.

Moffat may be a bit of an egotist as a writer, but you know he definitely loves and cares for the legacy of Doctor Who. So to see him stand up against a reactionary talking down on the show is such a chad move. Now we need RTD to verbally destroy Bowelstrek. I would love it if he would make an episode with ‘subtle’ commentary of online backlash and toxic fandoms, he would make a reactionary figure who looks and sounds exactly like Bowelstrek to really push audiences know how openly racist that Canadian Neo Nazi is.
I honestly feel like at this point, DW should just start naming some of their villains the likes of Sarkon, or have an episode where the monsters are clownfish coming out of your TV and screen-turning you stupid. Or as you said, have an episode about online harassment, where the key villain is someone with a username like "a path of bowel movements."
"that's the assumption that I was FORCED to base my entire video on" No. No you weren't. No one forced you to make that video. You honestly could have done anything else.
On the idea that how in your face 2005's Who was for 'sexual deviancy' is because of RTD - IIRC things Moffat has said online at various points, the meeting Moffat had with RTD about Captain Jack, his sexuality was basically an afterthought. "Oh, by the way, he'll shag anything, but it probably won't come up." which... I think Moffat has stated he took as a personal challenge. The concept was RTD, sure. But the actualization was a lot... More in your face... than it sounds like RTD was expecting in that meeting. And the character and show is all the better for it.
@@sortascouseaceno. Not classic who. Just any Dr who in general. One guy that look like a greasy discord mod literally tried to claim that ncuti sonic screwdriver jsnt a sonic screwdriver but trying to convince his viewers that it is a sex toy where he photo shop a butt plug over the screwdriver cause the dude was an open homophobe, looking for a way to make anything and the screwdriver an issue or woke, where he cried about how it had a proverb as if that is an issue to be mad about, then complained that ncuti used it as a flash light when literally Peter Capaldi did the same exact thing
There have been black and brown people in Britain for centuries. It is a recorded historical fact that the first Indian Restaurant in Britain was opened in London in 1808.
Exactly my point. Ppl like will aren't even Dr who fans at all. Cause everytime they talk about the show they always get the info completely wrong and showing that they never seen the show. He literally complained that the doctor is race swapped and bad, as well.complained that the master and the doctor were played by females is woke yet ignored the general being a black woman. Yet this dude claimed Steven was a God and makes good Sci fi yet only names popular fan fav episode that takes a Google search to find them yet doesn't even know a single thing that happened in those stories
Also in the 60s there was an episode called "The Dominators" where almost every man in the episode was casually wearing a dress that to me is really important and people don't talk about it much
Exactly. What's also great is how he doesn't even need to show us the private messages he received (I mean, it really isn't any of our business what people privately send to Mr TARDIS after all). If you just look in his comments sections, you do see several public comments from former Nerdrotic fans, thanking him for de-radicalizing them. So yeah, the proof is very much in the pudding.
@@jakeoliver9167The fact is Chibnall is responsible for three of the worst Doctor Who seasons since the 80’s with Colin Baker, and the devaluing of a great actress playing the Doctor by giving her subpar stories and inconsistent writing, as well as a weak chemistry with her companions. Based on these facts, Chibnall should not be invited.
@L1z43vr Regardless of what you think about Chibber's run on Doctor Who, this may be a case of separating the artist from the art, and Chris seems like a nice enough bloke IRL. Bowlestrek, Nerdrotic, and HeelVsBabyface are the ones who are not welcome.
"Why did you say something so stupid, Steven" is a very common reaction to his interviews. I love him deeply and sometimes he buries himself the biggest hole possible.
I’m glad I’m not the only one that doesn’t like “asylum of the daleks”, my personal worst episode is “curse of the black spot”, a boring episode that does little with the historical setting,but is made worse when you realise that the pirate who the doctor becomes “close friends” with is meant to be Henry Avery, one of the most notorious and evil criminals in history 😡 WTF were they thinking!!!
That will of the fans guy is mind boggling. “His” ideas are so two dimensional. Well done on showing us how peculiarly daft these cretinous bigots are. Love your channel and DW.
7:35 it’s Achilles and Patroclus. I did my dissertation on it for my undergrad. Edit DW have a story set in Troy, I have an original 1970s novel of it. One of the companions stays there and married prince Trollius (though originally Trollius the youngest of Priam’s sons was obsessed and in love with Achilles, so much so he goes out and tries to fight him one on one and dies)
this guy's amount of denial is honestly laughable, i bet moffat could literally say something explicitly progressive and he'd still go into denial and say "oh that's not what he REALLY meant"
Capaldi is the most woke doctor I won't even take any other suggestions it is Capaldi let's list of some proof punching a racist literally making fun of trump not even just implying it literally saying his name in an insult when Missy first shows up he immediately switches to she her pronouns not even just for her currently when he's talking about her as a child he still used she her pronouns and honestly the list goes on Capaldi really is how I think an alien would be if they ever come to earth it just makes sense to me he comes from an advanced civilization why would he care about our petty human grudges against people for being different
I would say RTD wrote some real crap in his original run. Having the Doctor resurrected from being Gollum in a birdcage by communal thought was pretty bad. I prefer Steven Moffat for all his faults he gave us a more serious darker tone and an actor over 45 in the role. I don’t know why these CZcamsrs keep saying the BBC is communist by having minorities in Who because the communists discriminated against people who were different. I can understand why people would be critical of a black Isaac Newton. I wouldn’t want Rosa Parks played by a white actress. RTD does seem to like gaslighting people but he’s giving ammunition to the bigots out there by doing this. Same with making an issue out of Transgendered people when they should just be there acting out a role without needing to signpost their differences. Show the struggles rather than make statements. I wouldn’t want people making a big deal out of my being bisexual as I just want to be treated like everyone else. Moffat gave us a transgender character in a Capaldi episode but no fuss was made at all. I wonder if this commentator was against that casting? Have a transgendered companion but let them show character and give us decent stories and it’ll be fine. Making a big deal about someone being different just misses the whole point of acceptance and equality. I do agree with a lot of what you say Mr Tardis but I do feel that RTD could do things better. Well said Steven Moffat! Best show runner of modern Who.
@@kuggacouragegx6093 If you don’t know who the transgender actor was then Moffat did a great job. It shouldn’t be an issue. Only bigots make an issue out of someone’s differences. The Rose Noble character did make a point of saying the Doctor wouldn’t understand because he’s a man! Well what about transgendered men? Wasn’t the Doctor previously female? Of course he’d understand. It’s as if RTD had to take a swipe at men regardless of the male character in question. Same with Gatwa he had to have the Bi-Generation and have him in his first appearance in his underwear. The writing is disappointing.
@@PaulRichards-vz4pl so yes u got no evidence to back up your point. Also true bigots are the ones making it an issue but u making it an issue of something that never even happened

@@kuggacouragegx6093 It’s a pity you’re not a woman Donna said and Rose said it’s something a male functioning Time Lord wouldn’t understand! Joke or not it came across as condescending in tone and unnecessary. Modern Who often does this to the Doctor. Make him look stupid when he’s vastly superior to mere humans.
In retrospect, I’m not sure who thought Chibnall would excel as a showrunner when his best story prior to his era was The Power of Three. Granted, it’s a good episode, but it’s nothing too special.
@@markpostgate2551 I forgot about the Silurian two-parter, that definitely takes the cake as Chibnall’s best. I think Jamie Mathieson or Neil Gaiman would’ve been great showrunners.
I don't like orophan 55 but not for the normal reasons like I honestly really like the climate change speech and believe it's probably the best written part of the episode and also the BENNY sure is cringey but so is like 90% of doctor who so I don't really care about that what I don't like is the plot twist for no reason the episode should have just openly taken place on earth from the start or been on another planet and if i were writing it I would have gone the second route imagine if the climate change speech instead of saying "change the timeline by taking care of earth" was "take care of earth so it doesn't end up like orphan 55" seeing another planet destroyd by climate change and knowing that our planet is still saveable just we need to work harder to take care of it would be so much better than what we got also the doctor telling humans to literally change the time line to stop an event they literally lived through is a paradox and I feel like it's way out of character for the doctor to promote paradoxes
Pin this comment if Moffat is or isn't coming back The third option is that Moffat never left in the first place, and Russell T Davies and Chris Chibnall are just androids Moffat built, so he could keep writing without any suspicion. Moffat in fact is older than anyone thinks, and he's actually been puppeteering the show since 1963.
6:52 The What? I'm a part of the LGBTQIA+ community and I Never picked up on anything between The Doctor and Nardol, much less anything "heavily coded."

Jaimie often wore a kilt, I don't hear conservatives getting triggered over that, which you'd think they would because Jaimie and the 2nd Doctor canonically FUCK! And that's not in dispute!
I really want to see this man's reaction to Boom given how obviously wrong and stupid trying to claim Moffat as "one of us" and that he'd never willingly return to the series turned out to be. Does he have to suddenly pretend he's always hated Moffat's work? Does he pretend the woke zombies got him and none of that commentary lines up perfectly with everything he ever wrote? He obviously can't *like* the episode without the house of cards collapsing, which is awkward because Boom is pretty great and completely in-line with Moffat's best work, and I feel like anyone approaching it in good faith would have to concede that at least a little.
On gender neutral accessories, I may be misremembering but I heard cigarettes were apparently created for women, hence the term “cigarETTE”, and men smoked cigars. Over time, smoking in general just became a more manly thing. Yes, James Bond is actually a weak girly man.
Did this guy seriously call the 13th Doctor "feminist"? like he's clearly not seen her era as 13 is very much not very feminine/feminist which is the point, her gender does NOT define her, that was a conscious decision and one I actually was happy with, ultimately she's the Doctor regardless of her gender, it normalizes that the Doctor can be ANYONE and that is fantastic. Good on Moffat for debunking this guy and calling him out, and this guy seriously has the audicity to call himself "Will of the Fans"? He does NOT represent or speak for most Doctor Who fans AT ALL.
Y'know, I'd genuinely never realised that the 13th Doctor wasn't particularly feminine, which I guess was the desired effect hahahaha that's wild now that you've pointed it out, cause it feels like every other modern Doctor (besides DT2 and Ncuti) has had some easily identifiable uber-masculine moment that is actually kinda weird when you think about it. Nine has the "You need a Doctor" moment where he literally saves Rose by kissing her (I know I'm oversimplifying that, but when you boil that scene down you're left with the obvious question - Why couldn't a hug do it?), Ten has that big action set piece where he rides a horse through a glass space portal to save Madame de Pompadour (not to mention the various innuendos and flirts with Rose hahaha), Eleven gets to ride a scooter up the side of the Shard (though tbf to Matt Smith he does play it in his usual 'hip alien uncle' way so it negates it quite a bit), and Twelve literally has that scene where he enters a Viking battle arena playing electric guitar, wearing Ray-Bans, on the top of AN ACTUAL TANK 😂😂😂 like something out of a Syfy Channel Iron Man knock-off 😂😂😂 That's obviously not to say that women can't/don't kiss other women, ride horses, save the day, ride scooters, play guitar, wear Ray-Bans, or drive tanks, because they obviously can and obviously do. My main point is that when a male character does it on TV and a female character does it on TV, the vibes tend to be veeeeeeeery different 😂
@@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8 I have a very immediate suspicion of anyone that claims to speak “for the fans”, as if fans are a singular regressive monolith of 40 year old basement dwellers.
“Because I refuse to call myself a BS term like Whovian.” Sounds like an edgy teenager. Also, I’m been a bit out of this discourse for a while (done wonders for my health) and it’s honestly a little nostalgic now to hear about some good old fashioned crazy people in this… I hesitate to say “fandom” because I don’t want to align myself with people like this. I guess “Who enthusiasts”
Why does that sound like a character in Game of Thrones? 😂 "Your Grace, the White King and his Troll army are about to sack Riverrun, what should we do?" "Send a raven to Ser Flamboyant of House Gayblack, tell him to gather his soldiers and ride north. Once that's done, dispatch riders to the keeps of Lord Exuberant Queerjew and Ser Vivacious Creolechair" 😂😂😂
Counting the spin-off Doctors in "The Curse of Fatal Death" the 13th Doctor becomes FEMALE - in 1999 i.e. last millenium! The old fashioned look on females in Doctor Who: skirts = straight / trousers = queer? The 2nd Doctor was only in black and white, else we would have had a better view on Jamie's kilt. Every Doctor re-uses old items like 11th with Amy's glasses or 15th the trousers of 13th😂
I spent my formative years in Scotland. Seeing a man in a kilt dancing in a nightclub was not uncommon 😂 the outrage is hilarious. Also, for centuries aristocratic boys and girls were clothed in “gender neutral” clothing while they were young. They all wore dresses
29:30 This guy is missing the key word "IF". Moffat said "If I say there is something wrong." not "I say there is something wrong." This is because this guy is projecting his opinions onto Steven Moffat.

Honestly when it comes to new who the matt Smith era might be my least favorite personality wise matt Smith is a great doctor who just bought so much energy and alien vibes to the role and also damn even in the bad episodes like good man goes to war he knows how to say things that give me genuine chills but just plot wise not that great of an era
Neither is bad both are good the only bad episode was the Crimson Horror and loving monsters as those are the only two episodes I will never watch again
Nah, it’s trash. So is Hell Bent though. Cant agree with the other guy about the Crimson Horror though either. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not going to set the world on fire - but it’s fine.
I liked Asylum. And Hell Bent. And Crimson Horror. None of those crack my top 10 worst episodes. Timeless Children is my #1 worst, followed by Orphan 55, Love and Monsters, Fugitive of the Judoon, Spyfall, Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, The Haunting of Villa Diodati, All of Flux, Death in Heaven, Power of the Doctor.... yeah I've passed 10. Point is Like and Dislike is largely subjective. If nobody liked an episode I think it maybe wouldn't get made/released.
But the Capaldi doctor bickered with everyone the only people I'll argue he fully respected are bill and river and even then I could still point out some moments where he teased both of them that's just kinda how he is also extra comment he respected all of his companions just some more then others also I think clara deserves a mention here because he did like clara just the deal with her is he was so early on in his character arc through like half the time when traveling with her he came off as a jerk sometimes

I listened to the first half of this on my other computer I user for work, which is logged in as "R.senal'sArsenal" and made 2 comments. I come back to watch the rest now that work is over on this, my main account, and I can only see one of them. The other did call out conservatives for saying the quiet part out loud and being "RACIng enthusiaSTS" with a word I'm Shocked is somehow being censored, especially when it's true, so there is that. Really disheartening to know that an algorithm has been trained to think that word is somehow something that shouldn't be said. Really disturbing. I hope I'm wrong, but fear I'm right.
While your video has been interesting, I do not think that objections are necessarily “They don’t want black people on screen.” Or “They just hate black people.” That is a small minority though very vocal. It’s really the woke attitude that isn’t liked. (I am aware Who is social commentary.) I do think it’s unfair to characterise Will of the Fans as saying “Too many blacks.” That being said, It was good to hear what Steven Moffat actually said and your comments on it. As you say, the observation isn’t the issue in and of itself, it’s what’s done with it. PS. My apologies for the constant edits if you happen to read in email.
I'll say it every series has plot armor because if they didn't every protagonist would be dead regeneration itself is literally plot armor like the first doctor was dying and the writers just last second introduced a secret magical power to make him not really die that is the definition of plot armor and other point plot armor isn't bad either the alternative is the main character just abruptly dying in a random episode which it would suck if that's what tv shows were like
Hi Mr Tardis! Been watching for a while, and I saw you on the organised chaos live stream. Seemed like good stuff. I got recommended more videos from organised chaos afterwards and I’m curious have you watched any of his channel?
Don't bother, they thrive off attention and it makes the video more visible thanks to the algorithm being fed by interactions like comments, likes, dislikes and such. The best thing you can do is to just not interact with it at all and delete the video from your watch history so it drowns in the sea of video being published every second
I honestly hope he makes a response to Will’s reaction. See if he’ll actually correct himself or realise what he was doing was wrong. Then again, knowing what prior hit pieces from Melon Ratler and Gobster were like, it’ll likely be what you would expect from a toxic CZcams reactionary.
45:30 Why do you think that people like RTD don't speak out against such things? Does it have something to do with them risking being hired or the like because that would be the only reason I could come up with? That they need to be "relatively moderate" about it? Or is it their own personal believes that speaking out wouldn't help? But if so then why does RTD even comment on the state of the BBC and that it could be turned into a subscriber service or saying that those conservatives are voting for murderers and liars?
I think you're taking his quote about 'telling a lie' out of context. He's not saying black people didn't exist in London back then. He's saying they didn't have rights, and it's historically inaccurate to depict them equal to white people at the time. If he were being historically accurate, they'd be depicted as mostly servants and underclass people, not extras in the same middle class dress as the white characters. If I recall correctly, as I haven't seen that episode since it first came out, the episode takes the liberal point of view that racism is the fault of a few bad actors and not a societal problem. It shows black people happily living their lives while the human villain is a racist dick to Bill. It is incorrect in the historical context, but it is more palatable for primetime television than a dark story about bad the lives of black Londoners were back then.
I think you misunderstand history and reality. The UK never had the same apartheid system the US had. You could be a member of any class and be black back then. Black society was less integrated and smaller in population, but it still existed and yes, there were rich black people, there were middle class black people, there were poor black people. However, I've yet to see any evidence that he meant what you were saying, and given his anger at Ncuti's casting, I think it's clear he just hates black people. Oh also, it is historically correct that there were racists in 1814, after all the slave trade had only been abolished in 1807, and slavery made illegal much later in 1833.
@@lloroshastar6347 I'm talking about Moffat's quote about telling a lie. He's a liberal who views racism as being about a few bad actors like that guy in Thin Ice.
He makes a good point Doctor Who needs to get back to its traditional, definitely-non-feminist female characters from the 60s, 70s and 80s. You know, characters built around traditional feminine gender roles like maths genius, scientist, courageous reporter, or baseball bat wielding pyromaniac.
It's really telling how the most traditionally feminine companions were the most disliked by fans and only stayed for a season or less. (Polly, Dodo, etc.)

Everytime someone asks how The Silence blew up the TARDIS it fuels Moffat's heat vision
They left the bath running obvs.
I like to think it was something to do with the TARDIS-like ships they had, such as the one from The Lodger.
It's not spelt out, but I always assumed the Silence having partial control over River Song during her conditioning may have led her to be sabotaging the TARDIS unknowingly as she was trying to avoid blowing it up. Or there was a silence in the control room that we couldn't see
@@TheDarkWhovian Definitely, personally it never bothered me not getting an explicit answer. I just distinctly remember people constantly bringing it up for all of Moff's tenure.
@@Faction.Paradox As do I, the forum rooms in those days were crazy right?! I still remember the Omega rumours for series 5. I still think it's a shame Moffat never got that fourth series with Matt to better tie everything in together, but still ToTD I felt gave us a satisfying conclusion to the mystery of who 'left the bath running'.
I love how these kinds of people (Bowelstreak, Will of the Fans, Reaper...) call everyone else 'snowflakes,' when they all contributed to the Samaritan's phone lines crashing on Christmas Day, seconds after Ncuti was seen, dancing in his kilt.

I really don't understand how people can call Chibnall era woke with straight face when it has the most right-wing moral in a decade on some stories (not dissing on actors but a woman lead doesn't do everything). And at the same time they morn the loss of the Moffat era with anticapitalist stories, antiwar stories, queer couples and characters. It's weird.
Do u have any exactly that her Era was right wing????
Also being antiwar isn't a political nor a right vs left or a conservative vs liberal.
Because new thing bad and the culture war is young I guess
I actually don't mind the Chibnall Era for the most part, but I'm genuinely intrigued here! Which parts struck you as right wing? To be clear, I'm not trying to argue with you at all, anything of that nature went straight over my head, and now you got me curious. 😂
@@bennettnez4711 Kerblam's "the systems aren't the problem, how people use the system is the problem" moral, where the villain of the piece is a disgruntled worker and the automated systems of the amazon stand-in are a victim stand out a ton in this respect, given the series right before it had Oxygen, a story where capitalist systems literally killed workers explicitly because it was cheaper than keeping them alive.
Notably, Kerblam takes place in a world where robots do the vast majority of the work and yet people still need money from jobs to pay for basic resources, and never does it come up that maybe people shouldn't need to work for a living if there's so little work that needs doing. It might not be extremely conservative, but Kerblam's take on capitalism and automation is very much the conservative "well the status quo isn't perfect but we can't fundamentally change this system, and the people who want to are dangerous radicals going too far" take.
@cfsfilms5091 Oh yeah, that totally makes sense. I just looked at the whole situation as obviously dystopian and strange and bad without needing it to be explained mid episode because it was self-evident. Then the choice to have the "villain" be a disgruntled worker was interesting to me because it wasn't black and white, so it added nuance to the story. I definitely was rooting for the workers, but then wanted the postal one to be stopped because it was costing lives. I agree that I wish the Doctor could have easily changed all of the current socio-economic trends of the universe at the time easily, but that would be hard to do without a Moffat power of love twist like the algorithm in Boom getting busted by dad love. I can only handle so much of that sort of thing anyways. I'm OK with The Doctor having limits, and stories ending on more of a grey note or with a high death count. It reminds me more of the classic series. I'll absolutely agree that on the surface it was weird though, they could have been blatantly preachy with a "good" message like most of the other episodes in the series.
I laughed out loud when he said Gayblack.
Its like Newspeak
I believe the kilt that Ncuti wore at Christmas has been identified as being made in Cameron hunting tartan.
As a person who is a proud half scotsman and who has proudly worn a kilt for numerous formal family events it annoys me no end to see so many of These reactionary grifters trying to claim that Kilts are somehow not manly.
Kilts have been worn by people of both sexes for centuries and served as the actual battle dress of Scottish warriors for a very long time.
It's bad enough that these idiots keep trying to fuel there bs culture war by pretending that Dr Who wasn't progressive until now but now they have to try and drag Kilts of all things into the argument.

11:16 I don’t know about corsets but men by today’s standards looked much more feminine back in the 18th century. They wore coats with little skirts, straps and high heels. Just look at King Louis XIV of France and he looks super feminine! The term drag queen actually comes from Shakespeare from the fact that the actors would drag their dresses over the stage.
The earliest reference to "drag", in that sense, is the mid/late 19th century, more than 300 years after Shakespeare's death. It may well derive from the fact that the performers' flamboyant dresses would "drag" across the stage.

Moffat may be a bit of an egotist as a writer, but you know he definitely loves and cares for the legacy of Doctor Who. So to see him stand up against a reactionary talking down on the show is such a chad move. Now we need RTD to verbally destroy Bowelstrek. I would love it if he would make an episode with ‘subtle’ commentary of online backlash and toxic fandoms, he would make a reactionary figure who looks and sounds exactly like Bowelstrek to really push audiences know how openly racist that Canadian Neo Nazi is.

No. No you weren't. No one forced you to make that video. You honestly could have done anything else.
On the idea that how in your face 2005's Who was for 'sexual deviancy' is because of RTD - IIRC things Moffat has said online at various points, the meeting Moffat had with RTD about Captain Jack, his sexuality was basically an afterthought. "Oh, by the way, he'll shag anything, but it probably won't come up." which... I think Moffat has stated he took as a personal challenge. The concept was RTD, sure. But the actualization was a lot... More in your face... than it sounds like RTD was expecting in that meeting.
And the character and show is all the better for it.

He literally complained that the doctor is race swapped and bad, as well.complained that the master and the doctor were played by females is woke yet ignored the general being a black woman. Yet this dude claimed Steven was a God and makes good Sci fi yet only names popular fan fav episode that takes a Google search to find them yet doesn't even know a single thing that happened in those stories
Also in the 60s there was an episode called "The Dominators" where almost every man in the episode was casually wearing a dress that to me is really important and people don't talk about it much
Great to hear about how you rescue people from that hate filled spaces.
Exactly. What's also great is how he doesn't even need to show us the private messages he received (I mean, it really isn't any of our business what people privately send to Mr TARDIS after all).

I’m glad I’m not the only one that doesn’t like “asylum of the daleks”, my personal worst episode is “curse of the black spot”, a boring episode that does little with the historical setting,but is made worse when you realise that the pirate who the doctor becomes “close friends” with is meant to be Henry Avery, one of the most notorious and evil criminals in history 😡 WTF were they thinking!!!
That will of the fans guy is mind boggling. “His” ideas are so two dimensional. Well done on showing us how peculiarly daft these cretinous bigots are. Love your channel and DW.

7:36 'the other soldier' is call Patroclus. Big Greek myth fan here!
this guy's amount of denial is honestly laughable, i bet moffat could literally say something explicitly progressive and he'd still go into denial and say "oh that's not what he REALLY meant"
Look at the many comments I made in his videos. It is ridiculous
Capaldi is the most woke doctor I won't even take any other suggestions it is Capaldi let's list of some proof punching a racist literally making fun of trump not even just implying it literally saying his name in an insult when Missy first shows up he immediately switches to she her pronouns not even just for her currently when he's talking about her as a child he still used she her pronouns and honestly the list goes on Capaldi really is how I think an alien would be if they ever come to earth it just makes sense to me he comes from an advanced civilization why would he care about our petty human grudges against people for being different
I would say RTD wrote some real crap in his original run. Having the Doctor resurrected from being Gollum in a birdcage by communal thought was pretty bad. I prefer Steven Moffat for all his faults he gave us a more serious darker tone and an actor over 45 in the role. I don’t know why these CZcamsrs keep saying the BBC is communist by having minorities in Who because the communists discriminated against people who were different. I can understand why people would be critical of a black Isaac Newton. I wouldn’t want Rosa Parks played by a white actress. RTD does seem to like gaslighting people but he’s giving ammunition to the bigots out there by doing this. Same with making an issue out of Transgendered people when they should just be there acting out a role without needing to signpost their differences. Show the struggles rather than make statements. I wouldn’t want people making a big deal out of my being bisexual as I just want to be treated like everyone else. Moffat gave us a transgender character in a Capaldi episode but no fuss was made at all. I wonder if this commentator was against that casting? Have a transgendered companion but let them show character and give us decent stories and it’ll be fine. Making a big deal about someone being different just misses the whole point of acceptance and equality. I do agree with a lot of what you say Mr Tardis but I do feel that RTD could do things better. Well said Steven Moffat! Best show runner of modern Who.
Name the transgender in Capaldi Era then?
Also how on earth that made rose noble only her identity when it wasn't really about her
@@kuggacouragegx6093 If you don’t know who the transgender actor was then Moffat did a great job. It shouldn’t be an issue. Only bigots make an issue out of someone’s differences. The Rose Noble character did make a point of saying the Doctor wouldn’t understand because he’s a man! Well what about transgendered men? Wasn’t the Doctor previously female? Of course he’d understand. It’s as if RTD had to take a swipe at men regardless of the male character in question. Same with Gatwa he had to have the Bi-Generation and have him in his first appearance in his underwear. The writing is disappointing.

Orphan 55 is worse than any Moffat episode.
In retrospect, I’m not sure who thought Chibnall would excel as a showrunner when his best story prior to his era was The Power of Three. Granted, it’s a good episode, but it’s nothing too special.
@@markpostgate2551 I forgot about the Silurian two-parter, that definitely takes the cake as Chibnall’s best. I think Jamie Mathieson or Neil Gaiman would’ve been great showrunners.
I don't like orophan 55 but not for the normal reasons like I honestly really like the climate change speech and believe it's probably the best written part of the episode and also the BENNY sure is cringey but so is like 90% of doctor who so I don't really care about that what I don't like is the plot twist for no reason the episode should have just openly taken place on earth from the start or been on another planet and if i were writing it I would have gone the second route imagine if the climate change speech instead of saying "change the timeline by taking care of earth" was "take care of earth so it doesn't end up like orphan 55" seeing another planet destroyd by climate change and knowing that our planet is still saveable just we need to work harder to take care of it would be so much better than what we got also the doctor telling humans to literally change the time line to stop an event they literally lived through is a paradox and I feel like it's way out of character for the doctor to promote paradoxes

The third option is that Moffat never left in the first place, and Russell T Davies and Chris Chibnall are just androids Moffat built, so he could keep writing without any suspicion. Moffat in fact is older than anyone thinks, and he's actually been puppeteering the show since 1963.

I really want to see this man's reaction to Boom given how obviously wrong and stupid trying to claim Moffat as "one of us" and that he'd never willingly return to the series turned out to be. Does he have to suddenly pretend he's always hated Moffat's work? Does he pretend the woke zombies got him and none of that commentary lines up perfectly with everything he ever wrote? He obviously can't *like* the episode without the house of cards collapsing, which is awkward because Boom is pretty great and completely in-line with Moffat's best work, and I feel like anyone approaching it in good faith would have to concede that at least a little.
Nerdrotic should also be sent back to prison 😂
On gender neutral accessories, I may be misremembering but I heard cigarettes were apparently created for women, hence the term “cigarETTE”, and men smoked cigars. Over time, smoking in general just became a more manly thing. Yes, James Bond is actually a weak girly man.
Did this guy seriously call the 13th Doctor "feminist"? like he's clearly not seen her era as 13 is very much not very feminine/feminist which is the point, her gender does NOT define her, that was a conscious decision and one I actually was happy with, ultimately she's the Doctor regardless of her gender, it normalizes that the Doctor can be ANYONE and that is fantastic. Good on Moffat for debunking this guy and calling him out, and this guy seriously has the audicity to call himself "Will of the Fans"? He does NOT represent or speak for most Doctor Who fans AT ALL.
I was starting to think to be the only one to like the 13th Doctor lack of any stereotyped feminine characteristics, in favour of her own persona..!
It's a very gatekeepy channel name, isn't it?
Y'know, I'd genuinely never realised that the 13th Doctor wasn't particularly feminine, which I guess was the desired effect hahahaha
that's wild now that you've pointed it out, cause it feels like every other modern Doctor (besides DT2 and Ncuti) has had some easily identifiable uber-masculine moment that is actually kinda weird when you think about it.
Nine has the "You need a Doctor" moment where he literally saves Rose by kissing her (I know I'm oversimplifying that, but when you boil that scene down you're left with the obvious question - Why couldn't a hug do it?),
Ten has that big action set piece where he rides a horse through a glass space portal to save Madame de Pompadour (not to mention the various innuendos and flirts with Rose hahaha),
Eleven gets to ride a scooter up the side of the Shard (though tbf to Matt Smith he does play it in his usual 'hip alien uncle' way so it negates it quite a bit),
and Twelve literally has that scene where he enters a Viking battle arena playing electric guitar, wearing Ray-Bans, on the top of AN ACTUAL TANK 😂😂😂 like something out of a Syfy Channel Iron Man knock-off 😂😂😂
That's obviously not to say that women can't/don't kiss other women, ride horses, save the day, ride scooters, play guitar, wear Ray-Bans, or drive tanks, because they obviously can and obviously do. My main point is that when a male character does it on TV and a female character does it on TV, the vibes tend to be veeeeeeeery different 😂
I don't think you know what the word feminist means
Anyway most of the doctors don't really give feminine or masculine they give Eldritch space moron

As far as I can see Ncutis kilt isn’t tied to any specific clan but there’s so few good pictures of it that it’s hard to tell
love the smile at 57:29 as you work out banger you're about to say next
“Because I refuse to call myself a BS term like Whovian.” Sounds like an edgy teenager.
Also, I’m been a bit out of this discourse for a while (done wonders for my health) and it’s honestly a little nostalgic now to hear about some good old fashioned crazy people in this… I hesitate to say “fandom” because I don’t want to align myself with people like this. I guess “Who enthusiasts”

In the nicest possible way, best bit was when you spat out your coffee
Shit, Moffat snuck "Boom" and "Joy to the World" into the quote at 26:07. He was fucking with us this whole time.
Counting the spin-off Doctors in "The Curse of Fatal Death" the 13th Doctor becomes FEMALE - in 1999 i.e. last millenium!
The old fashioned look on females in Doctor Who: skirts = straight / trousers = queer? The 2nd Doctor was only in black and white, else we would have had a better view on Jamie's kilt. Every Doctor re-uses old items like 11th with Amy's glasses or 15th the trousers of 13th😂
I spent my formative years in Scotland. Seeing a man in a kilt dancing in a nightclub was not uncommon 😂 the outrage is hilarious. Also, for centuries aristocratic boys and girls were clothed in “gender neutral” clothing while they were young. They all wore dresses

Rethrospective after 5 months: Moffat wrote Boom, which is anti-war and anti-capitalist. Not at all surprising for him.
29:30 This guy is missing the key word "IF". Moffat said "If I say there is something wrong." not "I say there is something wrong." This is because this guy is projecting his opinions onto Steven Moffat.

Nah, it’s trash. So is Hell Bent though. Cant agree with the other guy about the Crimson Horror though either. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not going to set the world on fire - but it’s fine.
I liked Asylum. And Hell Bent. And Crimson Horror. None of those crack my top 10 worst episodes. Timeless Children is my #1 worst, followed by Orphan 55, Love and Monsters, Fugitive of the Judoon, Spyfall, Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, The Haunting of Villa Diodati, All of Flux, Death in Heaven, Power of the Doctor.... yeah I've passed 10. Point is Like and Dislike is largely subjective. If nobody liked an episode I think it maybe wouldn't get made/released.
@@plantainsame2049 I dont agree abour Crimson Horror. Coming from West Yorkshire, I found it huge fun. 😁

I never noticed any queer coding with 12 and nardole, although they did bicker like an old married couple
But the Capaldi doctor bickered with everyone the only people I'll argue he fully respected are bill and river and even then I could still point out some moments where he teased both of them that's just kinda how he is also extra comment he respected all of his companions just some more then others also I think clara deserves a mention here because he did like clara just the deal with her is he was so early on in his character arc through like half the time when traveling with her he came off as a jerk sometimes
I never noticed it either. Could be projection on Mr. Tardis' part, and who could blame him? Have you seen Nardole? Yowzah.
45:46 "It's not because It's fun, and god knows It's not because It's easy. It's not because it works because it hardly ever does, I DO WHAT I DO BECAUSE IT'S RIGHT! BECAUSE IT'S DECENT... and above all It's kind.. It's just that, It's kind."
He was really giving redcoat energy with that kilt tirade. The bigotry is vintage mate.
Nardole and 12?? I'm always here for any gay subtext but that's so far out of left field
I cannot believe i have only just found you. Love your work!
the moff is probaly coming back, because i feel Mr tardis woul say if it were false
Boom!
@@bennettnez4711 yay i was right
His video aged well... He definitely wouldnt return.... Watches 73 yards 😂😂😂😂
its funny now looking back and hearing that quote. it features both titles of doctor who episodes he’s written for this season but guy in the video being reviewed is reading wayyyy too into it.
Dount he even wrote his own script... hence "trains" not trans
I will not stand for this Dan erasure
I agree, and suddenly want Japanese food.
13:22 This has aged like milk now, eh?
Why do some of my comments appear immediately while others disappear?
It's CZcams being CZcams. Sometimes CZcams automatically flags a comment for approval by the channel owner
@@joe23694 Well, in that case I don't think I have anything to worry about. I was simply explaining something but apparently, CZcams thought that that was "controversial" 🙄
@@Lia-zw1ls7tz7o I don't think anyone really knows how they're flagged or for what reason. Like everything on CZcams it's all done by an algorithm.
Same to me. I call ppl out and yt are hiding or trhing to silence me @@joe23694
I listened to the first half of this on my other computer I user for work, which is logged in as "R.senal'sArsenal" and made 2 comments. I come back to watch the rest now that work is over on this, my main account, and I can only see one of them. The other did call out conservatives for saying the quiet part out loud and being "RACIng enthusiaSTS" with a word I'm Shocked is somehow being censored, especially when it's true, so there is that. Really disheartening to know that an algorithm has been trained to think that word is somehow something that shouldn't be said. Really disturbing. I hope I'm wrong, but fear I'm right.
While your video has been interesting, I do not think that objections are necessarily “They don’t want black people on screen.” Or “They just hate black people.” That is a small minority though very vocal. It’s really the woke attitude that isn’t liked. (I am aware Who is social commentary.) I do think it’s unfair to characterise Will of the Fans as saying “Too many blacks.”
That being said, It was good to hear what Steven Moffat actually said and your comments on it.
As you say, the observation isn’t the issue in and of itself, it’s what’s done with it.
PS. My apologies for the constant edits if you happen to read in email.
Nah, I can safely, 100%say Screen Rant is anti-AI when it comes to writing for the site at least. Covering AI art is sadly another issue.
The head bang from MrTardis alone makes this a 5 out of 5 star video for me 😂
"But you exist in society, how curious!" type defense from this guy
22:10 you really despise gareth Roberts don't as in REALLY Despise him
It’s strange all I need to prove my hot take Moffat is the worse era nowadays is scream “Oh my gud, plot armor!” at a scene of Storm Trooper aiming.
The worst era was 1962 because there was no show even during the Wilderness year the show still existed through the extended universe
I'll say it every series has plot armor because if they didn't every protagonist would be dead regeneration itself is literally plot armor like the first doctor was dying and the writers just last second introduced a secret magical power to make him not really die that is the definition of plot armor and other point plot armor isn't bad either the alternative is the main character just abruptly dying in a random episode which it would suck if that's what tv shows were like
@yaboi9183 I'd say that plot armor is a poor Complaint made by people that Don't comprehend fiction
Like Everything is due to the plot it's a story
This guy using toilet humour in his Twitter profile is amusing to me, since my own anti-woke parody character is full of scatological humour.

Hi Mr Tardis! Been watching for a while, and I saw you on the organised chaos live stream. Seemed like good stuff. I got recommended more videos from organised chaos afterwards and I’m curious have you watched any of his channel?
53:00 Ah yes, my favorite chocolate bar
Damn I left a comment on that video too
Don't bother, they thrive off attention and it makes the video more visible thanks to the algorithm being fed by interactions like comments, likes, dislikes and such. The best thing you can do is to just not interact with it at all and delete the video from your watch history so it drowns in the sea of video being published every second
I honestly hope he makes a response to Will’s reaction. See if he’ll actually correct himself or realise what he was doing was wrong. Then again, knowing what prior hit pieces from Melon Ratler and Gobster were like, it’ll likely be what you would expect from a toxic CZcams reactionary.
45:30 Why do you think that people like RTD don't speak out against such things? Does it have something to do with them risking being hired or the like because that would be the only reason I could come up with? That they need to be "relatively moderate" about it? Or is it their own personal believes that speaking out wouldn't help? But if so then why does RTD even comment on the state of the BBC and that it could be turned into a subscriber service or saying that those conservatives are voting for murderers and liars?
I think you're taking his quote about 'telling a lie' out of context. He's not saying black people didn't exist in London back then. He's saying they didn't have rights, and it's historically inaccurate to depict them equal to white people at the time. If he were being historically accurate, they'd be depicted as mostly servants and underclass people, not extras in the same middle class dress as the white characters.
If I recall correctly, as I haven't seen that episode since it first came out, the episode takes the liberal point of view that racism is the fault of a few bad actors and not a societal problem. It shows black people happily living their lives while the human villain is a racist dick to Bill. It is incorrect in the historical context, but it is more palatable for primetime television than a dark story about bad the lives of black Londoners were back then.
I think you misunderstand history and reality. The UK never had the same apartheid system the US had. You could be a member of any class and be black back then. Black society was less integrated and smaller in population, but it still existed and yes, there were rich black people, there were middle class black people, there were poor black people. However, I've yet to see any evidence that he meant what you were saying, and given his anger at Ncuti's casting, I think it's clear he just hates black people.
Oh also, it is historically correct that there were racists in 1814, after all the slave trade had only been abolished in 1807, and slavery made illegal much later in 1833.
@@lloroshastar6347 I'm talking about Moffat's quote about telling a lie. He's a liberal who views racism as being about a few bad actors like that guy in Thin Ice.
34:00 oof he’s hitting that word a bit hard
