Doctor Who Season 11

Surprisingly good. Without the usual pros and cons.

I liked the Doctor herself. She's a Doctor, maybe not quite the usual one, but still a Doctor. I see the Doctor as a character as a whole and don't divide him into regenerations. Some incarnations are more successful, some less, but it's still our beloved Doctor, and the fact that she's now a woman doesn't make her any less of a Doctor. I would even say that it opens up new facets of the character. Still, it's far from the best regenerations (2, 4, 6), but also far from the worst (5, 11). A solid middle ground, I would say. Maybe even a little better than the previous version, somehow more lively.
The companions are surprisingly decent. But the problem is the same as in all of New Who - too much attention is paid to them, too much drama is made about their relationships with each other and with those around them. Thankfully, it didn't reach the level of the Ponds, but it's still not great. However, the characters seemed to fit in their roles, although I would still prefer 1-2 companions, especially since the Doctor always has helpers for a day. The First and Fifth Doctors traveled with three companions, and those were far from my favorite seasons. I generally don't like having too many people.
A little about the overabundance of tolerance - either I'm used to it, or I've mentally prepared myself, or something else, but overall, I didn't feel like throwing something heavy at the monitor. Perhaps this was due to the fact that the couple getting grief because of their gender/nationality (which, by the way, is a good thing - Martha and Bill didn't care at all what era they were in), the alien man giving birth, and the one and a half redshirts of non-traditional orientation were all insignificant compared to the companion who practically wrote "Pay attention, I'm a black lesbian, yes, I am!" on her forehead. To be fair, I'm a fairly tolerant person (I've improved recently), but I don't digest imposition and propaganda in any form, so yes.
Overall - it's a bit weak, a bit drawn out, and not quite polished. The episodes felt dull and seemed too long. There were a few cool moments, and overall the impression is pleasant, but pale. I would like something brighter, more vibrant.
= 8/10, not the best season, but the Doctor is still great. I'm fine with it.
А, вот почему.
