For ANYONE complaining about the writing of the newest specials, please I am begging you, go back and rewatch the s3 finale. Rewatch The Sound of Drums and rewatch Last of the Time Lords. Bi-generation may be ham-fisted but it's not "Martha Jones wanders the whole globe for a goddamn year and gets humanity to create a psychic link with the Doctor and all shout his name in unison at the specific right second, allowing him to go super saiyan for a minute." It's not "The Doctor was unironically planning on keeping the Master as a pet for as long as they live."
Having watched the finale of both the 60th anniversay specials and season 3 today, I can say The Star Beast and Wild Blue Yonder and The Giggle are no where near as batshit insane as the s3 finale. If you're saying "RTD used to be good, these specials are so campy, that ending was so forced," I'll tell you: RTD has always been like this. RTD erased an entire year of history just so he wouldn't have to deal with the consequences of the monsters he created. RTD made the Doctor float off the ground T-posing like jesus because he couldn't write up another way to get the gang out of it.
If you think bi-generation is bad, just look at what we've already got.
