Praxeus Takes Over! | Praxeus | Doctor Who

[@Skanarchy31]

Praxeus was pretty scary I’m gonna be honest. Some of the new villains like Tim Shaw and the Pting aren't exactly inspiring fear, but the praxeus disease was kinda scary in the way it effects people. It really takes advantage of the upped budget and was one of the better episodes of season 12.

[@charlirenner193]

Honestly, Tim Shaw freaks me. It's the face.

Pretty solid episode, minus the pacing issues. Mainly how 13, Graham, Ryan, and Yaz are utilised.

[@ftumschk]

Agreed - I felt that the balance between the Doctor and Companions was far better in this story than most, and the "Fam" were given more useful things to do. The lack of this in other stories has been one of the biggest problems of S11/S12, I feel.

Overall, yeah. I still have issues with the Doctor, but other than that, I just thought the theme for the episode was a bit too... simple? I don't mind it when shows bring up topics related to politics or saving the planet, but this just felt a little too simple. Or maybe it's just me.

Just an opinion but I feel the actors in series 11 and 12 just weren’t amazing at acting, Jodie Whittaker is an amazing actress like superb but it isn’t shown to it’s potential in these series and it’s not her fault! I feel like it was overacting?? The writing wasn’t great I don’t think...

An actor can only do so much with the scripts they are given. If the scripts are subpar, the actors' performances will suffer. Whittaker was not the first Doctor this happened to.

So much expositional dialogue in this short clip. That's the main issue with this era. Awful writing.

[@ftumschk]

Agreed - lots of expositional writing. Having said that, I thought that - if anything - the exposition emerged more naturally in Praxeus than it has elsewhere... which shows what a big problem it is, I guess.

[@James-gc5if]

The Doctor has become the fucking obvious narrator, explaining things that the audience has just seen on screen, because apparently we can't be trusted to understand the 'complex' scripts. But even worse, the Doctor is supposed to be the cleverest person on any given planet; she should be several steps ahead of everyone, including the audience (most of the time), but this Doctor feels like she's always lagging two steps behind: Dr: "Oh I get it now, you see... [explains the really easy 'mystery' she's finally solved]" / Us: "Uh huh, we all worked that out 10 minutes ago."

[@ftumschk]

@@James-gc5if "...explaining things that the audience has just seen on screen, because apparently we can't be trusted to understand the 'complex' scripts" More likely, it saves the writers from writing any extra dialogue or action. "A" happens, so the Doctor and/or Companions take time describing and discussing "A", which means the writers don't have to come up with "B", "C" and "D", saving themselves effort. In short, all this expositional stuff is mostly "padding" and lazy writing.

[@DoctorWhoHugh]

And yet how else do you get it explained? The show has exposition, they even referenced it in World enough and Time

[@ftumschk]

@@DoctorWhoHugh RTD and Moffat were able to weave their exposition into the script, either through brief snatches of dialogue or actually showing things happening on screen. Chibnall rarely does the latter, but tends to have the cast (usually the Doctor) telling us what happens in long, expository monologues.
