I gave up 3 or 4 episodes into Jodie Witthakers run. The stories just had this holier than thou moral high ground and none of the mischievous fun energy of the other doctors it just got completely unwatchable. Haven't returned to the show after she was done. What a shame.

Same, I really wanted Whittaker to succeed, and was stoked to see them have a woman be the doctor for the first time.

But then they straight up made her story lines all about sharing, caring, and not being confident. Like they flat out stereotyped women with the first woman doctor, while trying to sell it as empowering.

The doctor is kind of a goofy smart-ass who rarely considers that their plans might not work out. And Whittaker's doctor had none of that.
