I honestly feel that Doctor Who is a happy show in an unhappy time. It is a show that tries to remain light and optimistic in an era where shows dare one another to go as dark as possible. Taking a quote from The Dark Tower, the world has "moved on" from Doctor Who. We only want anti-heroes now and it is really, really difficult to write a happy but believable character. Although, I think the major flaws of the past two seasons were in writing's structure not the characters... so I guess I don't know what I'm talking about.

I don't know shows that remind us in dark times that humanity is still capable of compassion and redemption can be a great salve in times of despair. (See The Good Place).

Very good example. I just meant it was hard, not impossible.

Think of it this way - it's not that the timeless child's Gallifreyan, it's that the Gallifreyans are timeless children, especially after multiple generations of Time Lords are given the child's genetics

I was complaining about the ep to my wife and she literally said the exact thing and it made me like it more.

There should be a "Curse of Oak Island" type show about people searching for the lost episodes.
