Season 55
The second season of the Sixteenth Doctor's tenure. Similar to Bhatti's first season, this was intended to run for 13 episodes but was once again cut down to 8 episodes. But unlike the last two seasons, it would have a more traditional run of episodes of 8 straight weeks right after one another instead of throughout the year. This was the first season under Mal Young, who wanted a lighter direction for the show after the past 5 or so years being extremely dark. With this, this would be Adrian Hodges final season as showrunner as Young was not a fan of his direction of Doctor Who. Hodges was unaware until after he wrote the final story. Young pushed Espenson and Hodges' story arcs of The Second Generation and Faith to The New Renegade so that Doctor Who can have a clean slate. It also got a new title sequence, and plenty of new and fresh ideas and marketing. The episodes this season are: Rebirth Parts I and II, The Highland Beast, The Diaries of Time, Terror of the Daleks, To Win Them All, and Journey into the Unknown Parts I and II.
