Re: Least favorite season of your favorite shows

I'm probably going against the popular fandom opinion with this but season 5 of Doctor Who (and yes, I liked many parts of season 6).

YANA. I didn't hate anything about it, but that's ironically part of the reason why it was my least favorite: it didn't try. It didn't attempt anything grand or powerful or meaningful enough to be worth hating, or loving, or feeling strongly about. I did love the s5 finale, because unlike the rest of the season, it had some serious audacity, but the season that led up to it felt so...small compared to seasons 1-4 and season 6 (in spite of all the things I disliked about season 6). So diminished. So thin. So lacking in depth and breadth and character development and thematic development and ideas and just so...empty. It was simply nice. Unoffensive, unproblematic, unambitious. It didn't ever reach for greatness and screw up hugely (*cough* The Last of the Time Lords), but that's because it barely ever reached for greatness at all.

Maybe people did see big ideas and rich material where I didn't, and maybe you disliked it for different reasons than me, but that's my two cents.

I listed series 6 as my least favorite (because it is) but I'd probably put 5 after that. I don't tell many people because it does seem to be well loved by fans (it just hit that spot where people were tired of RTD and they had not really yet realized Moffat is full of it too.)

I kind of realized when I bought the series 5 dvds that I just had no interest in rewatching it unlike series 1-4 of the new era (which I've rewatched multiple times.) Once you know what happens with the plot there's really not much in the episodes to look for, but I blame that largely on the fact that Moffat prioritizes plot over character. It's fine if you have that storytelling preference, but I prefer character over plot because that's what tends to keep me coming back to a series.
