Lauren Coates Chicago Reader Though the strength of Davies’s writing is inconsistent across the trilogy, the Doctor Who 60th specials are a charming (if indulgent) blast from the past that honors the show’s history while laying the groundwork for an exciting new chapter Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 15, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

katchin05 . We didn't really need this, but loved this Rose. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review Leah M The 60th specials were so fun and brilliant to watch. Definitely wacky, but Doctor Who has never showed away from wacky before. Seeing David Tennant back as the doctor was a treat! The regeneration twist was a fun new idea to play with. Ultimately, I loved it and this special single handedly got me back into watching Who. (I even got my spouse, who was never a doctor who can, to start watching!) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/26/25 Full Review Stephen C What the **** did I just watch?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Tyrone C R.I.P Dr Who (1963-2017) The true doctors spirit died in the year of our lord, 2017. Accept no substitutes. Especially the cry baby that can't go one episode without getting emotional type of ones.. You know who I'm talking about. An embarrassment to my people. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 05/02/25 Full Review Vincent R I thought that The Giggle was a great final episode with David Tennant as the doctor, Wild Blue Yonder was kind of okay, it had some ups and downs, and The Star Beast was the worst one of the 3. I would give The Star Beast two meeps out of 10, Wild Blue Yonder, a 6 sonic screwdriver out of 10, and The Giggle, a solid 10 Stooky Bill's out of 10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/25/25 Full Review Michael M R.I.P Doctor Who 1963 - 2017 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/25 Full Review Read all reviews
