Since P.S. Surfaced after Amy and Rory's departure, I've always thought Chibnall would be the next lead to take over and that he would add abit more human heart back in the show. Have loved Moffat, and am excited to see what 2018 brings (and you know Moffats last series, well, he isn't going to go quietly!)

I for one am so glad moffat is going, I never liked him as a storyteller and the last series was so forgetful I recently had to watch chitty chitty bang bang just to fill the memory slot in my brain.
in my honest opinion Matt Smith could have been fantastic under a new writer, drop the silly 1980's cartoon bugs bunny effects and music, be a little more serious and yes I think he could have been getting awards every year. peter capaldi is growing on me slowly although I still am not convinced and think his portrayal of the doctor has been cold and unforgiving where as David Tennant was entirely the opposite. I enjoyed the stories written from other writers especially marc gatiss who I think should do the show as exec and main writer |

Because a small group of deluded fans with a bee in their bonnet have made an awful lot of noise - either that or we are being trolled by 4chan members.
Dr. Who is ridiculously successful here and abroad. That is in no small part due to the efforts of Mr. Moffat. The program is at an all-time peak of popularity and critical acclaim. It's got one of the best actors ever to take the roll in one of the most critically acclaimed seasons since it's return - but according to them it's being 'ruined'. They have to be trolls or 'special' - I'm not sure which. Wishing him to leave is kind of like moaning about having to put up with Alfred Hitchcock directing your favourite horror film. I just shake my head at them. Wishing Chibnall the best. I'm hoping that he does well. Really annoyed about there being no Who this year. |

How exactly would Gatiss be better than Moffat?

Strange that it was a pro-Moffat poster that introduced him to this thread and any anti Moffat postings have merely been in response to that, but of course that doesn't prevent the usual suspects from twisting the facts. Truth has never been their strong point. They just thrive on spitting their poison at anyone who disagrees with them.
Anyway I've got better things to do on a Saturday than argue with rabid Moffat fanboys. I learnt long ago that there is no use in trying to reason with them. |

The more relevant question is how would he compare to Chibnall.
I think Chibnall is a good option and i am pleased about it. |

Just ignore them.
It's the reason you are so often called a Moffat fanboy on here, you jump to his defence at the first sign of any dissent amongst the ranks. So yes, just ignore them is great advice, the forum would be a happier place IMO. |

With all due respect this is the problem, you don't ignore them, you continually reply to anyone who dares criticise Moffat (often defending him by criticising aspects of RTD's era, which I always find rather amusing) and it just perpetuates argument and bad feeling on the forum.

Thing is I haven't. Lots of people have criticised Moffat. I dont comment. I often agree with them. Its just when the same people start trying to create wars on the threads that it seems necessary to comment. Its all there to read. Its obvious who is starting the arguments and why.
If it's obvious who these posters are and why they post then why don't you follow your own advice and just ignore them? |
