Nablopomo 2023 - Day 16
Nov. 20th, 2023 06:44 pmDay 16 - What's a TV show you don't particularly like anymore, but still watch for some reason? Why? (If you're smarter than most of us, which show did you want to love, but gave up on?)
I loved the reboot of Doctor Who, absolutely loved it. Then toward the second half of the Matt Sith/Amy Pond years I started to lose the thread of the story, it unravelled even more during the Peter Capaldi years and then during the Jodie Whittaker years I felt like I was watching a sociology lesson, not a sci-fi show.
I'm so encouraged that David Tennant is back and Russell T Davies is back as showrunner, I really hope the show gets it's magic back, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Ncuti Gatwa does with the character!
In terms of a show I so wanted to love, I have to nominate Walker. I really want to support Jared and I really wanted to love it, but I just couldn't. I watched the first half of season 1 and just felt ... nothing. Admittedly cop shows and family drama are just not really my thing, but one day I will try to revisit it. I'm told that the show improves through the seasons, so one day I'll try again!
