RTD 1 and Moffat did keep that until The Doctor's Wife.

Is that when you figure it went off the rails? I didn't like that
episode -- it was much more "Look at me, I'm Neil Gaiman" than it was
Doctor Who. I thought the show stayed decent longer, though.

"The Robots of Sherwood" was when I stopped. I didn't really decide to
stop. I just didn't want to watch any more of that.

If I had to pick a single point where it got bad, it would probably be
turning the Master into a woman. MISI would have been a fine new
villain, but instead they did that, being progressive at the expense of
the story and the world.

He turned back into a dude, but it shouldn't have happened in the first
place. They gave us way too many episodes which we had to ignore in
order to keep watching. Eventually, there were too many to ignore.
