It's funny how the Skype notifications still have me sit up like a meerkat. That was fun to watch and I'd definitely stand by a lot of that.
Another thing I really disliked about Moffat's writing was how heseemed to be more interested in setting up big unsolvable mysteries and then showing how clever his prime character is by solving those big unsolvable mysteries, but those story lines were the equivalent of someone on TikTok with a very full balloon above their head pointing at how full the balloon was and how it could pop at any moment.
He did the same thing with Sherlock (no surprise he was drawn to that character) and while it was lots of fun at first, it was never satisfying as a conclusion and EVERYTHING else suffered as to serve those mysteries.
Well, apparently your rant triggered one of mine. Good fun to see one of your early videos.

Honestly, it takes a great deal of bravery to publish something from our teenage years. I would have burned it all, locked the ashes and forgotten the key.
