Explain more about how your childhood is ruined by political messaging in checks notes

Modern Doctor Who and Star Trek. The best written and acted shows of all time, obviously.

it's done plainly in reference to real life now, as opposed to being integrated seamlessly into the show. a good example would be the episode where the doctor had to erase his mind and Martha (a black woman) had to try and protect him while posing as his servant because it was the 1800s when they were stranded. this was still in real history (aliens aside) but was integrated as part of the plotline and not randomly mentioned with no context. a good example of when they get this wrong is the special with the meep where Donna's daughter says something along the lines of "I'm nonbinary because the doctor-donna is binary" which doesn't make sense in the story because the doctor-donna is binary due to Donna literally merging with the doctor, not gender identity. these things can be integrated well and when you do they only enhance the story by making it feel more realistic, but you have to make them fit the story, not the other way round.

“I’m nonbinary because the doctor-donna is binary”

My eyes rolled all the way to the back of my head when i saw this bit

I get what they were trying to do but it was such a cop out instead of writing an actual explanation.

That, or:

Your brain wasn't fully developed because you were a child.

I rewatched the whole show just a couple months ago and I didn't watch TV much as a kid so I only saw a handful of episodes then. this is my current, up to date opinion.
