It Wasn't Jodie Whittaker's Fault. "[She] was a brilliant Doctor. It was everything around her that failed. The stories were weak, convoluted, and overstuffed; there were too many companions, and the scheduling was erratic, thanks in part to the pandemic." https://www.pajiba.com/tv_reviews/the-weak-chibnallera-of-doctor-who-wasnt-jodie-whittakers-fault.php
It Wasn't Jodie Whittaker's Fault; It Was Never Jodie Whittaker's Fault

@JenLucPiquant Or Colin Baker's or Sylvester McCoy's.

I don't think there's ever been a bad Doctor. Just good Doctors who've sometimes been let down by the material.

(For all that I enjoyed RTD's run and I'm delighted to have him back, there was some real dreck on his watch, too. "Aliens of London", "Fear Her", "Idiot's Lantern", and "Gridlock" all come to mind, and his finales tended to start out strong but fall apart by the end.)

@Thad @JenLucPiquant I love Gridlock! The other ones you mentioned, not so much.
