Not to defend ai, but can Doctor Who writers?

Only if the BBC hires good ones. They seem to always want to kill the show even though it's probably their global top hit.

RLM has a good idea for Star Trek. People are tired of short seasons and years between them. Force the writers to work with a limited budget and time frame.

I would go back to the quarries and focus on banging out longer stories and longer seasons. Let more guest writers in to experiment and see if the popular ones want to sign on long term. No more universe ending threats for the season finale.

Yeah I agree. Give us 20 episodes and churn them out. Give space for exploring it. Also, retcon the re-destruction of Gallifrey and have some old-school episodes of arrogant space aristocrats.
