The Woman Who Fell to Earth

Her acting seemed a bit forced and didn't seem like her own character, a lot of the lines were just forced comedy "what's this? A tongue clever boy biology" well done you smashed comedic writing there. Definitely seems like doctor who has decreased in quality, doesn't help that I keep thinking I'm watching The Chase..

The Doctor felt all right at some times and off at others, but that's normal for a first episode. Most of the companions weren't engaging to me. Would have felt better if it was just the Doctor + Ryan or Yaz, it would've made it more personal and left more time for both the Doctor and the companion to be well established (the way 11th and Amy Pond did it). It seems like they are just doing away with the whole Doctor/Companion dynamic, which is disappointing. As it is right now it just felt like a standard mid-season chaotic filler episode. Hope it gets better from here...

A change is as good as a rest, let's hope Jodie is one of the best, with a new innovator, just where will he take her, new companions alongside and abreast.

Don't start as you mean to go on, this opener felt ever so slightly wrong, a new incarnation should go off like a bomb, with an episode twice as strong as King Kong. But it's still early days for the new Doctor, super fresh is the series concocter, he's conjured a curious group of companions, who I hope have the depth of Colorado's Grand Canyons. So we'll take this one square on the chin, put away our premature violin, develop some depth and thick skin, knowing Jodie will be the our linchpin (fingers crossed).

How does one know something's past its time; when one can do Mad Libs; The sidekick is a (adj) (noun), who is (verb) which makes everything (adj). This makes everything so 'new', because having a(bother) (white male) is ((adverb).

Nothing against Ms Whitaker, not yet another else. This is just... tired.

Maybe - as sometime else (did correctly) say - this would be better had it been not the first, but a later episode. As it is, we don't have time machines, so we excited stuck with what we got.

I think Peter Capaldi got shafted. His iteration of the Doctor was dark, and perhaps that's not good for the kiddy-winkies, but, as an adult, I wanted to see more

Good camera work, good lighting, good sound design. Technically well made. However the characters felt a bit generic for me, hopefully they get a bit more fleshed out. Script was a bit meh, felt a little flat at times. Some good comedy bits but mostly dark stuff. Very obvious plot points and concequences.

Main question though, does it feel like doctor who? Honestly, not currently, but it is only the first episode.

How's Jodie? She's alrite. The other characters didn't stand out for me. I would've preferred one companion.

Overall just ok. While technically well made, the story didnt really do much for me.
