Review of The Star Beast

Doctor Who: The Star Beast (2023)
Season Unknown, Episode Unknown
7/10
A little on the nose
2 December 2023
I never finished the last few seasons of Doctor Who, but I know this is better. It's definitely not perfect, but it's the start of something better. The beginning was a little rushed and weirdly done. There were a couple scenes that were VERY on the nose with the gender aspects, but I think that'll get toned down as the episodes go on as it was an introduction (hopefully..). I did love the new theme song, it feels very fitting for the new era. For me the standouts of the episode were Donna and her mom. There was a nice buildup of Donna getting her memories back. Obviously there are definitely some tweaks that should be made, to make the viewing experience nicer (and a little less cringy), but I'm happy with the shows return.
