OMG, I'd forgotten about that particular travesty.
Why did the white bear dissolve in water?
Because he was polar!

Yeah, Star Wars holds the record and by such a wide margin it will likely never be beat in our lifetime.

Be the worst christmas special ever? That's really hard.

25 minute episodes shot in the studio on videotape broadcast twice weekly?
No
Just more serious-minded stories presented at somewhat less than a ridiculously breakneck pace, with the actors not speaking their lines so fast it seems like they're minding a stop-clock, all set to overbearingly loud music.

I really want them to return to the series 1-6 style of episodes
What they NEED to do is return to the style of the

years (just with modern-day special effects).

Please don't presume to tell me what I enjoy and what I don't.
I enjoyed most of the Christmas specials.

You watch it every year knowing it'll be crap, so do i.

So again, EVERY year people decide to watch the Christmas special knowing it's going to be crap??? Reallly?????

Yes, this is why the xmas episode has higher ratings than it's usual series.
Many people who don't watch the series was just tune in, and the crappy ep just reinforces their choice not to watch a proper series.

So according to you people switch on Doctor Who at Christmas, decide it's dumb and switch off again and don't watch the series.and they do this EVERY YEAR?

All Christmas episodes have been pretty naff, so why break with tradition?
Problem is the Xmas special get way more viewers and most of them switch off thinking the whole show is as dumb and stupid like it. DW is starting if it hasn't already become a joke.

Don't know don't care if its good cool if not I'll live. It's a TV show people act like its something important but it really is just a TV show and how people get so angry and upset over it is honestly sad.

There's a difference between feeling critical towards it and labelling it "the worst ever".
What you said in this comment is a lot more reasonable and less trying super hard to evoke some kind of response.

You didn't refer to anything in the trailer though, you talked about the YouTube comments. And once you start saying things like 'unquestionably' (when it certainly is questionable) then it certainly does seem like you've made up your mind already.

is it unreasonable to make some early judgements based on the trailer and scenes?
I already said "prove me wrong Moffat", so my mind is still open to ideas, but from what I've seen, and usually trailers are pretty accurate with this sort of stuff, it doesn't look good.

Here's a radical thought.
It's only five days away. Why not just relax, chill out, watch it on the day and make your mind up then?
Because right now it seems like you're already prejudging it.

The point is that the show lost some of the casual viewership since it's lest soapy and has more of a classic DW feel now what may not be everyone's cup of tea. Plus the online platforms have transformed the need for live watching.

Well you can have whatever opinion of the quality of the show you like, but statistically viewers have been lost and the appreciation index has declined since series 5.

DW online fandom is always petty about something and youtube comments are hardly a quality measure for the show. You can say New Who is not as casual viewer friendly as it once was but for me and my girlfriend it went from liking the show to love it since the 12th Doctor so you can't have them all I guess.
I recently rewatch some of Tennant's era stuff and really struggle to think in what way it is declining story wise. There is some mediocre stuff in series 8 but nothing more than your average DW series since the restart.
