#firstly: RTD did something similar at the end of the fourth season—splitting the Doctor to “give” one version to Rose

RTD is so in love with David Tennant that it makes him look stupid, huh.
#listen friends i dont know what to feel
#i love everyone involved
#I'm so happy that Donna has her memories back and will spend the rest of her life with her best friend by her side
#but that ending felt like it was straight out of a christmas Hallmark movie; my teeth ache from all that saccharine sweetness
#I'll be able to justify it if RTD is setting the stage for bringing Tennant and Tate into his UNIT spin-off which seems to be in the works
#if that's not the reason it's hard for me to swallow this plot twist with the biregeneration
#firstly: RTD did something similar at the end of the fourth season—splitting the Doctor to “give” one version to Rose
#it's a bit annoying to see him essentially do the same now by letting another version of the Doctor to stay with Donna
#secondly: I missed the emotion in this
#I spent a week bracing myself for heartbreak but we went a bit too far in the other direction
#we got a cutesy ending where everything resolves through a deus ex machina
#yet it’s those bitter and grief-soaked moments are what RTD has always excelled at
#when it comes to the Doctor's regeneration and farewells to companions
#it's hard to feel much about this plot development
#some things should remain final and some goodbyes and endings are unavoidable
#the conclusion of Rose’s arc (both from s2 and s4) or Donna's ending in s4
#were among the most emotionally intense moments in the history of television
#I missed a bit of that here
#perhaps if there were more bitterness in the 14th Doctor's ending if he had to pay some PRICE for this biregeneration
#(like not getting his TARDIS
#being told that the Fifteenth takes over the regeneration ability
#and the Tennant Doctor will die of old age)
#emotionally it would have provided viewers with a cool punch
#without that it seems like RTD wanted to have his cake and eat it too
#have a new Doctor and give his old characters a last-minute happy ending that doesn't make much logical sense
#I was hoping to feel more considering how much I love these characters
#but my main reaction is an eyeroll
#on the positive side I really hope to see Neil Patrick Harris in the show again he was a great villain
#and Ncuti Gatwa’s Doctor is already so freaking great!!! <3
