Vengeance on Varos: ok. It would be a lot better without an episode's worth (old money) of the Doctor and Peri faffing around on the TARDIS. There's absolutely no reason for any of it. There's also very little vengeance happening.

So far the randomizer (to protect us from the Black Guardian) has given us:

The Mark of the Rani
The Ice Warriors
Underworld
The Monster of Peladon
Vengeance on Varos

and, most recently... The Dominators, a story so bad it killed Patrick Troughton. The universe, Ice Warriors aside, hates us.

Except in Series 9, when Moffat crushes the box

You can deal with Interesting Themes without misdirecting a plot arc that no-one gave a poo poo about at the time anyway.

The current showrunner has rewritten the backstory of a 57 6 year old show in a way which clashes with the plots of a number of previous episodes, to suit his own tastes.

Is there something inherently toxic about doing new Doctor Who?

The revival has been on the air for fifteen years.
