These are stories that you just can't stand on any level and think New Who would be infinitely better off without.
1. Dark Water/Death in Heaven - It's the peak of the Doctor, Clara and Danny being toxic idiots without an ounce of critical reasoning. It has the Cyber-Brig. It has Missy. It's honestly my least favourite story in the entire history of the programme.
2. Timeless Children - We all know.
3. Hell Bent - Basically the proto-Timeless Children. I hate that the Doctor abandons Gallifrey. There's so many things he could have done for them. It's not like all of them had something to do with him being tortured. That was just a few people. We literally see innocents when he visits the barn. But no. Just ditch them at the end of the universe. How is that in any way an acceptable end to what you set up in Day of the Doctor, Moff? Also, I don't understand what Ohila is doing in this. She's just there to be a dick.
4. The Pyramid at the End of the World/The Lie of the Land - I hate how these ruined the excellent setup in Extremis. I was really into series 10 until these two episodes. Nothing heinous canon or character wise, but just really crappy writing.
5. Kill the Moon - Clara's continual attempts to judge and lord over the Doctor as if she had any understanding or intelligence matching up to that of a 2000-year old alien who's been regularly saving the universe boggles the mind.
6. A Good Man Goes to War/Let's Kill Hitler - I cannot take Matt Smith's attempts at being intimidating seriously. Which completely hampers Good Man Goes to War. Let's Kill Hitler is just a bizarre comedy episode pretending to be profound.
7. The Wedding of River Song - Laziest season finale.
8. New Earth - I just find it annoying. Especially the bit where the Doctor mixes all the medicines together to make the Ultimate Medicine.
9. Fear Her - I don't like it very much
10. School Reunion - At the time I enjoyed it, but in retrospect, the treatment of Mickey and Sarah Jane rubs me the wrong way.
