Watching the first episode of Doctor Who Series 5 because I haven’t revisited it since I first watched it as a teenager and wow none of this feels the same as an adult this is sooooo uncomfortable. The first thing the eleventh doctor immediately upon existing is being entitled and bossy to a little girl and making her cook food for him that he yells at her for being terrible. Ooof

I always took it as extreme post-regenerative jitters. But yes not the best characterization to introduce the guy with.
I'm currently trying to watch Day of the Doctor and Heaven Sent on recommendation by friends and... I cannot. there's so many little moffat-isms that just get in the way for me. and large moffat-isms too.
