I bailed after an episode or so. I think that "these days" (90s thru now) the result of Hollywood money tends to be ponderous, self-conscious, expensive scenes without freshness spontaneity or life to them. Maybe once they have the money they start fixating on the money too much, and on the expensive aspects. the result is cookie-cutter "serious" moody "gothic" productions... look at the American Dr Who movie on Fox in 1996. A lot of "gothic" blue-and-gold visuals, mist, dry leaves.... it looked pretty similar considering it was an SF show about an alien in a time machine.
I remember the characters being, acting, and looking "harsh" and removed. I hardly expect warmth and niceness from all DS characters, but icy detachment doesn't draw you in.
I hated the fact that they were taking us through the old story from 1967 all over again. I saw it already.
