partially because I didn't love the Coal Hill episodes of Twelve's era (AHAHAHAHAHA BLACK MEN CAN'T TEACH MATHS, THEY MUST BE THE PE TEACHER AHAHAHAHAHAHA)
thankfully, since graham "better check those refugee children's teeth to make sure they're not adults TRICKING US INTO CARING ABOUT THEM" roberts is nowhere near this series it has so far completely lacked any of those little writing quirks of his! the backstory behind ms. quill and peter has the potential to be gross but so far it's treading the line without falling over and i'm willing to give it time to see if there's something interesting that can be done with the premise. i mean, i'm not hopeful. but it at let did not have the doctor co-signing onto her deserving punishment for being a freedom fighter, so we'll see.
DW fandom peaked in 2007, y/y?
2007-2008 had some FANTASTIC fic writers, that's probably the best we've had so far. i think other aspects of fandom have done well (podcasting, vidding, fan art), but fic and meta and general discussion have stagnated for sure. now that tumblr is waning and we'll have a POC in a main role again, maybe there's room for some new, exciting blood.
