See I'm not disagreeing with anything you are saying.
However I am in a strange zen-like place of acknowledging all these things and yet not caring enough to write about it? Trying to explain it, it feels like we now have enough New Who for it to have distinct eras, the way Classic Who did? (Promethia and I did a whole spreadsheet.)
And I'm just sitting back going 'Disney Who isn't really quite my thing, but it's fun and colourful and it's certainly more engaging than Chibnall Who' and that's kinda it. It's weird.
Also my head is FULLY occupied by The Dead Boy Detectives, and Doctor Who is barely making a dent. (Which is nice. My brain couldn't cope otherwise.)
ETA: That said, I think the show is doing some interesting things. There is chewy stuff, and a vision, below the primary coloured surface.
