Doctor Who is pissing me off!

[ninja_butler]

For the love of fuck why must there be so many plot holes and cheap "deux ex machina" solutions to every story?! I like Doctor Who, in fact I've watching many of the classic eps (currently on the 6th Doctor - episode "TimeLash") but the modern series should be a lot better put together. It's like the script writers don't talk to each other and everyone's completely forgotten what happened in past stories.

Lets take the Daleks:

The first time the Daleks make an appearance in the modern series was with the 9th Doctor; one last lone Dalek that has survived the extinction of it's race. At the end of that story the Dalek commits suicide because being alone it no longer has a purpose or some such.

Fast forward and the Daleks are back. Four of them conveniently arrive from a parallel Universe and unlock the "Genesis Ark" which is a prison ship created by the TimeLords to hold squillions of Daleks. So the Daleks weren't extinct at all were they? Stupid lonely Dalek instead of blowing itself up should have been off searching for the Genesis Ark. That's two errors, 1. the Daleks were NOT extinct and 2. the "last Dalek" was somehow unaware that billions of it's fellow Daleks were in a prison. I guess he didn't get the memo.

All the Daleks end up back in the Genesis Ark safely locked up..

And then the Daleks are loose again, I can't remember where or how and by this point I've rather lost interest. Doctor destroys Daleks, Daleks pop up again.

Later the Doctor gets kidnapped by the Daleks to "save the Daleks" in an episode called "Asylum of the Daleks" in which a Dalek mental asylum is supposed to be sealed by a force-field but the force-field is failing so the Daleks send the the Doctor to the Planet to sort it out because they are terrified of the bonkers Daleks. Why? No idea. Why can't the Daleks just put up another force-field or lock up any Daleks attempting to escape the Planet? No idea. Apparently they are quite happy to pass up a golden opportunity to kill the Doctor though. It makes no sense.

And then we have the NEW Daleks. Bigger and more colorful and a bit more modernized. I'm liking the idea and their voices reverberate in a suitably menacing way. But where did they go? The old Daleks have made at least two appearances since the new generation of superior bigger-and-better Daleks DESTROYED the last of the inferior old-generation but while the smaller old-style Daleks have reappeared the new ones have disappeared without trace. Maybe the models and props were too expensive?


And don't even get me started on the morals and ethics (or lack thereof) of Doctor Who. The modern series in some ways is seriously fucked up in ways that most people are blissfully unaware of. It's mind-fuckery but most people don't think about it. Ignorance is bliss as they say.

It's TV who really GAF?

It's when the public are oblivious to the major plot holes and laughable inconsistencies in current events and past history that you should really be concerned.

star trek & star wars did a very good job of sticking to their own internal rules and logic. As a result stories generally made sense and big reveals were surprising as you knew you had missed clues.

Dr Who clearly just makes it all up as it goes along. not just series by series, but scene by scene. It seems like every time the Dr saves the day by figuring it all out at the last second in implausible brilliance and then does the noble thing by defying all the shows internal rules to wrap things up in the 30s remaining.

I love sci-fi, which is why i hate Dr Who.

His age really pisses me off. It never seems to quite add up!

It always annoys me that some hitherto unknown function of his sonic screwdriver will save the day.

It doesn't matter how fucked he is, that stupid green-glowing dildo has the answer.

Don't watch TV anymore, news readers being paid to tell us we're dying everyday (Themselves ensconced), people shown being shot for real, sexual swear words at tea time TV, sex and violence in the soaps, Jeremy Kyle - Murdoch's free view cops with camera's, Judge Judy and Jerry Springer. It's as if people don't act for others anymore, but feel inclined to shock and over dramatize for rating thus advertising revenue, which incidentally is just as insidiously crass.

In any case, The Muppets - Pigs In Space frightened me when I was a kid.
