TVTropes gets made fun of a lot but it is a little astonishing how consistent that wiki’s voice is. It’s a great wiki to go to if you want to simulate having one specific autistic fifteen-year-old computer nerd infodump to you about any piece of media that exists. To be clear I am saying this as an overwhelmingly positive thing

A friendship between Donna and Nine probably would’ve been markedly less tender but still EXTREMELY goood because it would be a mutual case of “oh shit! Bastard spotted! :D”
Like I’m 99% sure they would’ve become friends because some fuckin fascist or whatever is giving their Evil Speech and Donna and Nine just say “bitch” at the exact same time in the exact same tone and then Look at each other like aaayyyyyyyyyy
Donna, not knowing he’s the doctor: well we’re not leaving these people to die, you crazy bastard, so you’re going to help me-
9, flabbergasted: excuse me, who’s in charge here?
Donna: hi my name’s donna, and i was TALKING

okay but if you ever see a male creative who had a string of great work and then everything else he did was dogshit, go to the “personal life” part of his wikipedia and look at his relationships. you’ll either find a major tragedy he didn’t recover from (completely understandable) or, more likely, there was a woman in his life doing uncredited shit editing his stuff or contributing generally and she’s not there anymore.
I told a friend about this phenomenon in literature and he called me weeks later like, I remembered what you said about women doing uncredited work when tim burton came up. he made a string of bangers then everything else just was nowhere near as good. the timeline matches perfectly to when he was with this german visual artist (lena gieseke). he’s done some good work in collaboration, but if things were dug into I suspect we would find she did a lot more than people realise.
so yeah whenever you look around like wow women didn’t work in history, or, women aren’t auteurs, or, there just aren’t as many great female writers - societal reasons for that aside, half the time they absolutely did.
