As a Star Wars fan, I would like to offer my condolences to the Doctor Who fans.
Thank you. It's been a frustrating six years.
Dude, i'm sorry for your people too :(
As a lifelong Trekkie, I'll second that.
Amen!
Any tips to start and best part to end when going in the Star Wars and Dr. Who ??
Dr. Who fans are some of the nicest and most passionate people I’ve met, and like many other fanbases, they didn’t deserve to have their franchise ruined by idiots.
well Amazon did call the Lord of the Rings's fans evil so there's that
💯 agree! Dr. Who… one flush down the toilet is all it took🤢
*commies
@@Tallacus Well, let them be the only ones who watches that show then
Nobody on this comment section are Doctor Who fans lmfao. Only little haters lol.
As I recall from studying *real* history, governments that sought to rewrite history to suit their needs weren't exactly the most peaceful idealistic societies.
Got it in one
"History is written by the victims"...
Soviet Russia and the "democratic" West comes to mind. Isn't it a coincidence that Germany saw them as the enemy?
The soviets were notorious for this and their culture suffered greatly as a result
And we are watching this very symptom of humanity take place in real time
The Daleks tried for ages to kill off The Doctor and yet somehow the BBC managed it ridiculously easily.
Correction Disney. The BBC TRIED for a couple Years with Jodi..but Disney said hold my beer in less than 3 specials.
You two never watched the show because it’s always been progressive i mean there is a literall video titled doctor who being political for 1 hour and it has been woke since it was created but you never wachted the show so please watch the video I mentioned and then you think maybe I was wrong I guess it has been woke since it started to get a life and be quiet ok thank you
@@Batmanvideos84789It was political but not to this degree like it values politics more than the story at this point
Indocrinate, Indocrinate, indoctrinate.
@@Batmanvideos84789 hey, i also think that DW has always been progressive. But also agree with what the guy in the video said... i feel sad watching doctor who because i miss the 'Big Brain' moments where i had to pause the episode to try and understand all the wibly wobly stuff. Since Capaldi left i never felt that way again. since i've started watching i noticed it's weird only having a white male protagonist, i was so happy hearing about jodie coming in and thought "finally not a male doctor"... but i was expecting the show to continue beeing all crazy and stories conected and i having to really use my brain to undestand an episode. i wish the writers and directors could have continued the amazing story... but now it feels like i DONT have to use my brain to understand an episode... i love the fact that we finally had a female doctor and a black doctor now, i wish we keep having all kinds of people as the Doctor, because that is what the Doctor is. but i want good stories. they don't have to have a story beeing about gender equality to let people know about gender equality. i've learn so much watching doctor who, now it feels just like a repeat of what is happening in the world, episodes have no connection and story have huge holes in it... im sad for Jodie and Ncuti, both great people and great actors, but they got to be the Doctor when the writers are lazy...
That whole BS about the MALE Doctor not being able to let go of power drives me nuts!! Have they already forgotten how Doctor Donna begged, pleaded and cried for the Doctor NOT to take her power away from her...even though she knew it would kill her!
Exactly! Like what is with them and bashing on men?! The Doctor has made many sacrifices before. Did they think that he wouldn't do that because he was MALE?! God, way to ruin Donna.
Agreed! Also with the stupid timeless children if the doctor has unlimited regeneration then donna is safe from death anyway. Cuz the doctor can just heal her with regeneration energy.
it's just so stupid!
A man is defined by the sacrifices he makes
It was a gratingly stupid line for sure, for so many reasons. That said I don't think your example is the best; I'm pretty sure Donna was begging to keep her memories of her time with the doctor, and her friendship with him. He was taking away so much more than just her newfound power
You're being stupid. Doctor Donna didn't beg him to let her keep her powers, she begged him to let her keep her MEMORIES.
As 47 year old Englishman who grew up with Dr Who, this hurts my soul.
As a 42 year old near-lifelong fan, I concur. After watching the episode on Saturday night I spent most of the following day feeling intermittently angry and numb... Kind of like when a beloved pet gets run over.
As a 45yo Englishman also lifelong fan bringing my kids up with Dr Who except my youngest and I did try with her on the first episode but she was bored after the first 20mins and tbh so was I so we never watched the last 2 episodes same with my eldest he watched first episode being 22 and brought up with David tennant he happens to be gay aswell so you think this is the target audience what Russel is after and he hates it aswell so sadly I a, done my sone is done and my youngest just didnt care the future sadly is dead for Dr Who and I am so sad about it they just destroying our beloved franchises 1 by 1.
as a 49 year old german, who in the 80s secretly stayed up late to see dr. who when he should have slept, yes it hurts.... (dr.who was not so popular over here, so it was shown only late night)
Is Jack Harcness character who is bisexual hurt you too?
As a 50 year old English woman, Who’s first Dr was John Pertwee, I feel so deflated after patiently waiting a year for these episodes. My 29 year old daughter is going to give the next episode a shot, because she is hopeful that watching with her son will be their family thing as it was ours. My 23 year old son watched the first one and is now not interested. I’m very sad.
One of my all time favourite moments in all of Doctor Who was Jo Grant's departure. She announces she's getting married and although the Doctor acts happy for her you can tell he is devasted that the woman that kept him company through his years of being trapped on earth is leaving him. As everyone pours drinks to celebrate the Doctor silently drinks his and leaves the party while no one is looking (He didn't notice that Jo saw him). Then the Doctor, an ageless alien, drives away on his own.
Calling scenes like that baggage is fucking insulting
It's pretentious and unfounded.
What abour the Eleventh Doctor meet Jo again.
The silhouette of Bessie against the twilight sky was a lovely bittersweet ending to that series.
Fantastic comment. A scene like that says more than any agenda laden diatribe can ever convey. It's one of those true timeless moments.
YES YES THIS.
Bro, why do they always fucking spoil shows and turn them into propaganda with bad writing. Like, if you want to spread your speech, MAKE ANOTHER SHOW instead of spoiling another
The point is they are too incompetent to do a show. So instead they put their propaganda in already loved stuff since they know a lot of people will check it. Not for long, since they ruin it, but that part does not matter.
@@ZenT_T Propaganda about what?
The Doctor being a slightly insufferable know-it-all is precisely why we loved him, among a myriad of other traits. I will personally never forget how David Tennant brought us the most compelling expression of "righteous anger" I think I'll ever see in my life. To be a lonely, wounded, god, filled with the rage of centuries pouring it out on the darkest of foes...it was just all so brilliant. RIP Dr. Who.
I personally loved how Matt Smith could almost flip into a completely different character when things get serious. Most of the time, he’s the cheeriest, silliest and most playful Doctor around and then, in a moment, something else takes control. Something cold, ancient, and furious.
Doctor Who is a show where the youngest ever actor to play a character can somehow look and feel the oldest out of all of them.
its still going!
@@RadiuI No, it's not. Like a walker from The Walking Dead, its putrid, rotting corpse is still staggering around as if it were alive, but there's no life left inside, only a mindless, ravenous rage seeking to destroy everyone who once loved it.
@@zxyatiywariii8How come I've been seeing a lot of people enjoy it then?
Yah... The Doctor being kind of a dick is one of his most persistent traits across all regenerations. He's very smart, very old, very knowledgeable, and he knows it. And his ego doesn't get deflated often, but when it does, it feels EARNED. It's one of the things that made Romana fun, because while The Doctor may have a lot of practical experience, he's still the Time Lord equivalent of a college drop-out, allowing Romana to outsmart him from time to time in a way that feels natural.
I was having a conversation with a normie friend of mine over the weekend and, without giving it any thought, told him “All my old fandoms have been compromised - there’s pretty much nothing left from my old favorites to enjoy.” I said it matter-of-factly, but after it came out of my mouth, it saddened me to confirm out loud that so many things I used to love - comics, Star Wars, Star Trek and Doctor Who - have all been destroyed by people that couldn’t care less about them.
I still have Star Gate and Babylon 5, simply because nothing new for them came out in the last 10 years. I used to be saf about no new content, but now I see it as a blessing.
@@Me__Myself__and__I other than that one stargate game
@@Me__Myself__and__I farscape has become an untarnished favorite of mine, but like anything now I'd nearly riot over reboot attempts; 9/10 it's always a downgrade.
@@shanemczane6725they’re threatening to revive Farscape. It’s a Disney property now. Fortunately I still have DVDs of 1st and 2 nd season. Tragic!
Yes I feel the same. I have run out of things to watch. And enjoy. Because I have seen all these things a million times. I love them, they are great. Doctor Who, Trek, Star Wars etc. But they are not making anything new from them, that is worth seeing and nothing new that is anywhere near as good as what they were years ago. And its sad as the potential is there, they just want to use them to lecture the audience now, and not entertain. So I no longer watch any of them . I watched the first two Tennant specials and they were that bad, that preachy and that much of an F. U. to older fans like me I could not bring myself to watch the last one The Giggle. I am actually glad I missed it. And what I saw for the Christmas Trailer looks like one of the worst episodes of Doctor Who I have ever seen. A mash up of Pirates of the Caribbean and the Hobbit. With the campest Doctor ever. He is even more camp than John Inman or Kenneth Williams. I cant possibly take it seriously, its like a parody, a mockery a comic pantomime. The fact its gone from 12 million plus viewers down to 4 million in ten years....two thirds of the audience are gone and its going to get worse. I would be embarrassed if someone called to visit me on Christmas Day and I was caught watching a Doctor Who as bad as this one looks....and everyone thought Whitaker and Chibnall were bad...how is it possible to make something worse than that???? But they look to have managed it....
You don't have to be a doctor of psychiatry or psychology to know that " emotional baggage " literally makes us who we are. How we handle our challenges and let downs define who we are.
I think you’ll find it’s what we identify as is what defines us.
Unless you’re against my ideology and therefore I will define you as an -ist and a -phobe.
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
It's how we take action in the real world...
Everybody hates Star Trek V but Kirk's speech about needing his pain was a good scene.
it's one thing that makes us who we are of like 5 things. emotional baggage can happen in 5 different ways, itself.
I'd say you don't need to be a doctor to know that but it seems you do.
The grief I feel for a show I’ve been loyal to for almost 20 years is awful. I’ve never been so angry at writers.
As a Whovian, I take solace in these 3 facts. There's fifty good years of Who that they can't ruin. Hartnell was the first Doctor and Capaldi was the last. Lastly their version of Dr Who will be forgotten in a decade ours is forever.
The problem is they have and are removing older “problematic” episodes. Bit by bit they will find fault with each era and replace them all.
Keep crying
@@Metallifux1888 So you enjoy others' pain? You're a sociopath.

"By believing it, we will summon it forth"
I've never seen a Progressive put it so honestly.
And he was dead wrong too. Like most progressives about most topics. A lot of minorities see through this cheap virtue attempt and it turns everyone off. Just cheap
Belief doesn't affect reality, but sure. As the saying goes, you can ignore reality, but you can't avoid the consequences of avoiding reality. The chickens will come home to roost.
It's a line from Seinfeld, too: "It's not a lie if you believe it!" (Pretty sure it was meant as a joke back then.)
Manifestation, explained in a sentence
@@JohnJohnson-wy6fk Minorities want to return to mud huts.
I love when they say "who cares if they are race swapped, gender swapped, gay, trans, etc?" They are the ones that care so much, they are so completely obsessed with identity politics they will crash entire brands and companies to push their obsession. They can't look at a person without seeing nothing but race, gender, sexual identity, etc.
I don't know, I might enjoy Hitler as a vlack man, or "gasp" Trans man. That certainly would seem to fit how they act. Trans, not black. The black man thing would be for the irony of it all.
It’s all for the removal of the past hero’s and role models. To normalise the narcissists, the hedonists, the perverse. When everything is removed and replaced then everything will be “normal” .
@@Docktavion Or maybe when people get exposed to this kind of stuff, they might eventually think not to call something narcissistic, hedonistic or perverse just because they don't understand it.
Also, the current race-swapping is only pale-skinned to diverse, never the other way around. So much for 'blind casting', we know it's for diversity and inclusion.
@@fantalone666 that’s true, look at the insistence of calling everyone “far right, nazis, sexist, phobic, misogynist, anti-vax, anti-science etc.etc”. They are all buzz words with no substance, you ask them to explain what they mean and you get mental/cognitive dissidence as they have no clue.
Listen, I'm a gay black man and I Loved Dr who but yeah I'm over it now. I'm glad they're more concerned about pandering rather than their loyal fans. Sad

Never let culture fall into the hands of Communist. Yeah I know it inhales hard. RIP Dr. Who.
As if we have a say.
My biggest issue with the 60th is it didn't feel like a celebration of 60 years.
More like insistence of current year.
Matt smith, david tenant and early peter capaldi were the best of the show (not including 9th because he had a short run) sadly russell decided showing everyone as equal wasnt enough and decided to ruin good storywriting to annoy us showing a narrative every single frame and somehow ruining the sonic screwdriver which i thought was impossible as its just a screwdriver every time but different so they turned it into a magic ipod which solves every problem instantly
You´re a male, you can´t comprehend. LOL
I felt like I was being sandblasted in the back while watching the new Dr who show
Thank you, an actual reasonable complaint and not one made by right-wing grifters like Nerdrotic
I love how RTD had a problem with Davros being a wheelchair user who is evil, but not with The Toymaker being a man with a thick german accent who is evil
The Toymaker's German accent is phony, he literally gets caught faking it before the Doctor first appears in the episode.
@@the_dpad tbh that doesn't really change the fact
@@itsNabezit does because it’s shown as a farce
@@deeznuts23yearsago it's poking fun at Germans ;P
It’s literally pointed out in NPH’s first scene his accent is phoney and slips. The Toymaker has adopted an accent that will be unnerving.
Capaldi was the last Doctor. RIP Doctor Who. The priceless and irreplaceable icon is truly dead.
Whitaker's era was great. The writing was original. Problem is that people whine about original, but when they get it, then its an agenda. LOL The whole Woke argument is really just bigots looking for someone else to be responsible for their bigotry. LOL I mean, Who's creator had wanted the Doctor to transform into a woman as well as many other possibilities. There were always gay characters in the show, its just that the bigot wants them to be played and shown as being straight gays. LOL
@@mikelachey824 Whitakers era was mediocre at best. Chibnall took great pleasure in ripping apart the Canon of Doctor Who and while I'll admit Jodie got a raw deal with the rubbish writing, her Doctor is very forgettable. Over 50 years of writing was flushed down the toilet in the Timeless Children. Destroyed the legacy of William Hartnell. Killed the Doctor Donna. Retconned Davros because he was in a wheelchair.
Woke took over Doctor Who and the fans just didn't deserve it.
@@mikelachey824Whitaker was an awful actor.
Peter Capaldi is a wonderful, talented actor. Dr Who is dead as a franchise.
@@mikelachey824 if you're the same person. And you reincarnate as said same person. Just looking different. You're not gonna magically turn into a gay person. It's not Bigotry. It's common sense. I'm ready for your weak arguments. Come at me.
The UK viewership for the 3 David Tennant specials are LESS THAN HALF of the very first Jodie Whittaker episode (and Jodie ONLY went downhill after that).
The average viewing numbers for the three Tennant specials are almost EXACTLY where Sylvester McCoy's average ratings were before the show was cancelled in 1989.
None of the Tennant specials surpassed viewing figures for even the least-viewed Matt Smith episode, much less any of the prior David Tennant episodes.
Disney dumped a TON of cash into this production and this was NOT what they wanted to see happen. Yes, this is a huge failure. This is a big-budget special effects show, not some seedy medical drama, and it is the 60th anniversary to boot. They were expecting in excess of 10 million viewers and couldn't maintain half that.
What else does this mean? Well, it means that merchandising isn't coming back. During the Jodie Whittaker era, almost all merchandising came to an abrupt halt. NO ONE WAS BUYING THE PRODUCT. During Eccleston through Matt Smith, merchandising was HUGE. You could get EVERYTHING, from toys, posters, mugs, t-shirts, comics, etc. At one point, Character Options was reporting sales of 30,000 sonic screwdrivers a day! Then came Capaldi, and merchandising sales slowed. During Jodie, they almost died completely. Toys that did come out sold in paltry numbers. Action figures wound up in deep discount bins and suppliers still cannot get rid of "Friends of the Thirteenth Doctor" action figure sets. Almost every US licensor of Doctor Who products stopped making new items (no more T-Shirts, mugs, standees, posters, etc). UK toy releases became very sporadic as well, most being exclusives through B&M. With numbers like these, the merchandise is NOT coming back, and if it does, it won't sell enough to merit full price for very long.
Are you sure Disney didn’t want this because I’m pretty sure this is exactly what they wanted
👍👍 to the failure of this sad piece of junk.
@@DoodleThis They wanted in excess of 10 million UK viewers and a ton of subscribers to join for this... didn't happen.
This is a bridging mini series. It's not a 60th special and to be honest here in the UK they are putting more promotion into the next era of who. As for ratings, they are up on the mess chibnall made. You also can't compare 1980s ratings with 2023 ratings. Today there is more channel choice (and I had BSB here in the UK in the 80s/90s, what we now call sky TV).
And as someone who owns a copy of every who story in existence (tv, film, book, comic, audio and trust me friends took the piss out of me at school for the wall of who in my family living room, where all other walls were taken up in books) nothing is new in terms of woke.
“Doctor, I let you go.” Thank you, Peter. Profound words from the final Doctor.
the shows still going!
No it isn't. @@RadiuI It died with Peter Capaldi. That's my canon and I'm sticking to it.
Didn't that Doctor punch a racist and fight capitalism?
o7 Capaldi. The series should have ended after the doctor was you.
"I don't want to go" all the way back in 2010 seems profetic now, like they knew it was going downhill from there :P
Personally, I consider everything up to the introduction of Clara as canon. Things got pretty bad around that time. But even then, I wasn't too big a fan of Smith's first season, so I'd be happy to consider Tennant's final words as the end of the show.
You cant have Davros in a wheelchair but you can give the Toy maker a German accent????!!!!!
If you notice, the accent was only affected in some scenes.
No RTD gave the toymaker a German accent to tell us that putting on a accent is racist to show us that he's evil he said this in the BTS
@@Jjosh9424 I find that really hard to believe. The accent shows that the character is partially motivated by his own enjoyment, he never needed to put on a funny accent but it was fun for him so did it anyway. It's nothing to do with racism as much as it just shows how little he thinks of humanity in general and this situation he's putting them in.
@@fukyoutubestupidfuckinghandles you can find it hard to believe but it's quite literally what RTD said in the behind the scenes
@@fukyoutubestupidfuckinghandles also the toymaker assumes where that bloke is from at the start of the episode to show that he's a racist
When ideology is more important than art/entertainment, you know that its doomed to flop terribly. To Doctor Who fans, you deserve much MUCH better & I hope something good happens in the future.
Please, just watch the Malcolm Hulke stories in the 70s for left message.
What's funny about the "ideology" vs art/entertainment...they cast a diverse black Doctor Who who represents only 3% of the British population compared to the Asian 7% and 82% white. They had already abandon the long time fan base for a female Doctor, now they usher in the era of a non-Binary Black Doctor for a production that will appeal to an even smaller demographic...all in the name of representation. Good luck with that.
How come most people have been enjoying this then?
I been watching the 60th anniversary special slowly and been enjoying it. At most there was one part that fell off but it all felt so nice.
@@Abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0000 Quentin Tarantino was talking to Bill Maher & he said that ideology now is more important than art, individual effort, good vs evil & entertainment.
There were decades with no who. The show was dead to me when the female took over and Peters last season sucked too, which is why I respect him for leaving.
Doctor Who gave me 10 great seasons during my childhood and teens. Those memories will never be taken away. RIP Doctor Who.

"And in the years to come you might find yourself revisiting a few, but just the old favourites, ay?" - A prophecy that has come to pass and taken on an entirely new meaning. With 50 years worth of stories to enjoy, we can revisit them all. The Day of the Doctor serves as a wonderful series finale for classic Who. May it rest in peace.
that was the finale for me as well. never watched anything past it nor i intend to do
50 years of repeat viewings is fine by me.
Day of The Doctor would be an awful series finale for classic Who. Now, Death Comes To Time on the other hand was a great send off for The Doctor.
@@Zontar82The last Doctor was Capaldi. He’s an older Doctor but he’s superb in the role. His performance in Mummy On the Orient Express was sensational and it’s an all time classic. This show will never reach those standards again.
@@UnlimitedRicePudding_ I'm not familiar with it but thanks for the recommendation. TV episodes, books, comics, Big Finish and other audio dramas: there's plenty in the archive to entertain fans for decades to come (same goes for Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel and DC). All this woke content is going to age very poorly but what came before is timeless.
I am a real woman!! Please hire me as a writer of Doctor Who so I can make the timeless children a fever dream of Jodie Whitaker’s doctor while held captive and let’s do it all over again
i'd rather make capaldi wake up from a bad dream lol.
As a Star Wars, MCU, DCU, LotR, Witcher fan... I offer my condolences to the Doctor Who fans! 😪
Thank you. It's so painful to watch the latest episodes.
I don't accept them , I enjoyed the specials 😃👍
@@herimen3153 Honestly I feel like Tennant came back as a nostalgia bait, and the last episode should have been longer. Anyways, I take Capaldi as my last Doctor for now.
I was a fan of all these properties and this just proves Tolkien's words true "Evil doesn't create it only CORRUPTS and DESTROYS"
Wow.. that wasn't a parody. That whole thing about "binary" and "pronouns" was seriously part of the script. May God help us all.

@@mistafay If that was all parody then I'm impressed. They did a hell of a CGI job with that whole "are you he, she or they?" Looked SO REAL!!
@@IllisiaAdams I was speaking to the degenerate level of entertainment which reflects the culture of our civilization, which history has shown leads to well.. look it up! In any event. God help us all from THAT, which sadly I fear it's too late.
Nerdrotic does not have CGI elves to do parodies, this is from the actual show. Welcome to the future old man
Russell T Davies ushered in a successful reboot of Doctor Who in 2005, partly by perfectly harnessing the nostalgia and respect of older fans, while subtlely updating the series to appeal to new viewers. His instincts in this regard have abandoned him in 2023, or maybe it's that he's had nearly 20 years of people telling him how well he handled it last time and it's blown his ego into the stratosphere to the point where he now thinks he can do no wrong.
Watching Nucti Gutwa's Doctor dancing in a nightclub at the start of a new BBC trailer, wearing a singlet and kilt and nothing much else, it's clear that RTD has lost touch with who the lead character even is, and is instead writing some generic gay rom drama that happens to have a time travelling phone box in it. His disrespect of both Doctor Who's legacy in it's 60th anniversary year, and even his own legacy within that by bringing back David Tennant's Doctor only to shit all over it, has 'belled the cat' about how he will be proceeding with Doctor Who going forward.
The only blessing is that its going to be so bad, that Doctor Who's days are now almost certainly numbered. And at this point, it deserves to be canceled again. It needs a rest, so someone new with an actual love of the I.P. can come along in a decade or two and revive it peoperly.
Sorry but i never feel that RTD had respect to the older fans. He make Sarah Jane a love interest.
RTD has right and properly fucked the Dr. Who franchise, which may never recover. I've an idea: Feed all the Classic & NuWho (minus the latest rubbish; let fans be the judge) episodes into an A.I. programme. Let it write new episodes. Hell, it can't get any worse than Chinball's and Russel Tits Davies shitfest, could it?
Its just a crossover of all his shows, and most of his stuff was about gay blokes and nightclub culture. he just merged Doctor who into it.
Brilliant post! I wholeheartedly agree! I hope someone who really loved the show rescues it years from now after it is inevitably canceled.
@glenncoody They should do exactly this with many franchises like Dr who, Star Trek, Star Wars. Maybe they will be better than anything we got since a few years.
Disney's fault, I would say. MUSICAL IN DOCTOR WHO!??!?!💀😭 I was cringing more and more
I disagree with basically everything in this vid and in the comments, but I want to understand those who currently hate it. But THIS? This I’m with you on. The one number with Neil doing the Spice Girls was random and weird and surreal, just like it should be! But the others in ‘Season’ 1? Wtf is that. The number in the Christmas special? No.
As a Star Wars, Lord of the Rings enjoyer, I give my condolences to the Doctor Who community.
As a fan of all three. Doctor who was hit the hardest.
@@timeflys3248I don't watch Dr Who, but I guess so. The franchises are like three useless woke ideologues trying out-do each other.
Woke Star Wars: "This show has too many men. If you don't like my Mary Sue, then you're a sexist!"
Woke LoTR: "This show has too many white people. If you don't like my Mary Sue, and the fact that I hate white people in fantasy, then you're a racist!"
Woke Doctor Who: "Bruh, my Doctor is now an ex-woman bi-regenerated gay black man born from a penis, and we told his past white self that he knows nothing. Britain was black, and if it wasn't, then it *should* have been. The future is black and gay. Omg fans, why do you care?"
Lord of the rings is essentially untouched. Rings of power didn’t do that much damage. Star Wars and DR Who however, sheesh.
@@Red_Devil_2011 the Dr was pretty funny
Thanks, but condolences aren’t needed. I still love the show as I always have.
I remember how incredibly powerful Capaldi's "I WILL NOT CHANGE" was, as he fought his regeneration by pounding into the snow. Looking back on that, you could kind of use that moment as foreshadowing....
Indeed! he was right all along XD

Don't hate. When all things fail, and they always do with activists, they still take comfort in having ruined it for you and making you hate. Drinking fanboy tears, remember? Laugh at their failure. Ridicule their insanity. And above all don't watch their garbage. Just watch the Disparu reviews and others instead. Constantly remind them of their failure and how they are what they claim to fight and hate. THE BAD PEOPLE FROM GERMANY! As for the show, I think I can still stomach it up to season 9 of the new series. Never saw seasons 10 and beyond and I think I will keep it that way. AFAIC Capaldi is still the Doctor, a madman in his blue box, and this just corporate hate fiction made by bitter tumblristas.

Over a decade of some of the best memories, now overshadowed by the death of the show. It's like losing someone so very dear to you. 50 years of progress to bring the very best of entertainment now has had a radioactive 💩 upon it.
When I go to watch Matt smith again, the old david Tennant episodes, the Baker and pertwee era or just any doctor who before 2017 I feel at peace, I feel comfort, I feel entertained and time well spent. Once the end credits roll, the world comes crashing down again, the knowledge that all that I have watched has been completely annihilated.
What tears me up the most is the show won't be remember that much for the 50yrs of progress. No, it will be remembered for its agonising, torturous death.
I'll say it one more time.
RIP Doctor Who
It’s not dead, a new episode came out a few days ago, a new episode is coming out in a couple of weeks! Try it, you might be pleasantly surprised

I completely agree with you. I know that there are things far worse in the world to be sad about. But this show brought so much joy to my family. We would have endless conversations about it. My kids would cosplay as characters to DragonCon in Atlanta. We were able to escape the craziness of the world, and just enjoy an imaginary story with madman in a box. And they just recklessly, killed it! Damn right, I shed a few tears! But worse, they destroyed it using one of the very best Doctors there ever was. It really is a knife in the back.😢
To your commenters replying… they must be part of the activist crowd, the 5% of the population who Might actually watch this current crap masquerading as Dr Who garbage. No!

I stood in front of a statue depicting a great hero. He was a legendary hero, greater than life, and I remember being awestruck by the greatness the statue managed to exert. But when I looked at it, I saw that the statue had been vandalized. Some cruel hands had chiseled, painted, and bent the statue until it was unrecognizable. I began to weep, and a child asked me why I was crying. I told the child it was because of the statue. Such a great and noble thing had been destroyed, and it saddened me. The child asked me why would such a thing upset me. It is but a statue after all. And I told the child that it represented such great and beautiful things, greater and more beautiful than anyone could imagine, and now no one will experience it ever again. And the child will never get the chance to glimpse it either.
What you have written there is so beautiful.
The child will never understand the importance of this metaphorical statue, nor the statues of real people getting torn down in the name of progress all over the west.

"Emotional baggage" Really?!! That's why I love the doctor. A person that has lived for the longest time, with vastly more experience and knowledge than his adversaries and supporters, all the loss, grief and mistakes he made, he has to live with all that and keep moving forward because he understands that if he stops, evil wins. "Emotional baggage"
And that is true Message lost on these fools now days. You cannot just drop your past, the pain, the trauma.
You learn to live with and keep moving forward, you find a way to use it to motivate you, to empower you, to make you better.
But these current fools think you can only wallow in it or forget it.
That is not how people work, and those who do function that way are broken people who need to fix themselves instead of "fixing" the world around them.
That's their way of saying "Let the past die. Kill it, if you have to." :/
Yeah- what these current "identity first!" writers fail to understand is that most people don't relate to characters based on color shades or sexuality, but rather based on the characters' actions and experiences.
Matt Smiths final words have been lost by RTD. Change is okay, you gotta keep moving as long as you never forget who you were. RTD has completely forgotten who the Doctor is.
I honestly loved that they brought back David Tennant. It was fun to see him. The Bigeneration was really weird, but the 10th Doctor finally got the ending he wanted. There were a lot of things in the specials i didnt like though. The attitude they gave the doctor and telling him how he wouldnt understand because he is a "male presenting timelord". I also don't know how being non binary was important for the story. The characters gender shouldnt be important.
I agree, the gender shouldn't be important. The show was making it the whole personality of the character, instead of just one aspect of the person. So weird
@@arthurhaack618 I still remember Bi Billie, only because the showrunners wouldn't stop writing it into her lines. "Hi I'm Billie and I'm bi!" Oh! Well it's a good thing you are trapped in a cave full of Roman legionnaires who are also all gay and bi for some reason that has zero affect on the plot of the episode. Who cares? The doctor is an immortal time traveler who has evolved over the years to become the fearless and feared entity that killed the Daleks and even his own species. Part of his journey is learning how to deal with that. And yet...after Capaldi the doctor became a coward that was afraid of her own shadow while still trying to play up the girl power angle. And it just keeps getting more and more about pandering rather than good storytelling. No wonder Disney picked it up.
@@docferringer exactly. I am a part of the LGBT, but I don't tell people that when I introduce my self. Because it doesn't matter! I'm embarrassed by the shows pandering to queer people.
I suspect they kept Tennant Doctor in a form of existence, in the show, for a reason, and he will be used to reel the fans back in when 'something happens' to Gatwa Doctor, at the end of that actor's term. Their bi-generation may result in a bond that involves Tennant when it is time for Gatwa to regenerate. That's my prediction.
@@arthurhaack618Stop calling them "queer".
Think about it... only 5.08 million people watched this show. We're talking about the return of the most popular modern Doctor, David Tennant, and 2/3 of his original audience didn't even show up. More than 100,000 hated it so much, they wrote angry letters to the BBC. By the third special, 400,000 couldn't be bothered to watch the regeneration episode to see the new Doctor. And Davies mentioned that MILLIONS were being poured into this new Doctor Who, "more money than he has ever had to work with." You're going to pour millions more into something, you're going to expect a BIGGER return than before... but nope, it fizzled. And it is ONLY downhill from here. There is ZERO hype right now.
In the same way Disney doesn’t fork out $250-300M on a movie just to break even, the BBC didn’t bring Catherine Tate, David Tennant and RTD back just to get 5M overnight viewers.
you seem to be forgetting that most viewers now watch via streaming services. that 5.08 million ONLY includes live tv from bb1, not including iplayer, disney plus or any other services that stream doctor who to their country.
Every time someone mentions David Tennant I will mention that he sucked as the Doctor. *R.I.P. Doctor Who (1963 - 1989).*
@@KoizumiASMR The streaming doesn't matter because it's being compared to the British audience numbers that other Doctors had. For example, when Jodie was Doctor and had similar numbers, the media reported it as being low viewership. And let's note that after Jodie, because of the low viewership, the show was actually going to be canceled until RTD stepped in. Plus, Doctor Who is a beloved British institution, and I for one would have expected a bigger surge there for the return of the most popular NuWho Doctor.

10 is also a big favorite and i loved his dinamic with donna in the 4th season. He also had G O O D stories, like midnight, waters of mars, the girl in the fireplace, human nature/family of blood, etc.
But MAN, it would have been sublime that the series ended with the 12th doctor. A beautifully tragic ending, but fitting for a character like the doctor

Oh well, I have a lot of the original Doctor Who on DVD or Blu-Ray, and all of the modern Who through Capaldi (not all the 12th Doctor was woke or bad) on Blu-Ray. That's how I will choose to remember the show.
For me the prophetic/4th wall breaking line was "I don't want to do this anymore" uttered by old guy companion in the Rosa Parks episode. Me either buddy...me either...
Capaldi is where the collapse began, but you're right, not all of it was bad. I liked the Clara arc, and the episode after her death is probably one of the best episodes of Dr. Who ever produced period.
Capaldi's doctor had some really bad moments but I also think it may have had the best moments as well. It was such an up and down. The Zygone war speech from Capaldi may arguably be the best moment in the whole show. Him trapped in the confession dial I personally think was one of the most simple sequences in the show but also one of the most well written and emotional when the reveal happens.
@@shadoukingu3730 Agreed on all points.
"Heaven Sent" was an awesome episode with a simple premise that really paid off. Hell Bent was a good follow-up to it.
The problem with calling yourself "Progressive" is every time you achieve a goal, you then have to find a new goal and proceed to once again beat the rest of us to death with it. They will insist on taking us down no end of weird backwaters, and if they have their way this "progress" will be unending.

Doctor Who died after Capaldi, his last words perfectly said it, "Doctor, I let you go". We can let him go and wonder into the night on the Tardis going off on all those endless adventures.
Oh, the stunned silence in that theater when Tom Baker's voice boomed from off screen. A pin drop would have sounded deafening. Truly a moment in time now lost like tears in the rain. RIP Doctor Who.
Great reference 👌
Capaldi was the last doctor, and all this time we had been in denial, if they want to do something different I would be happy to watch "Clara and me in the restaurant at the end of the universe"
Notice how every doctor after Capaldi, had good memory after regenereating.... I say they are a figment of his imagination and he's really in a coma or something.
I liked the 60th Anniversary Specials… but I’d still watch the hell out of this. I miss Clara and 12.
How I HONOR You! Jodie Whittaker was a poor Doctor not because she was a woman, but because she couldn't portray Doctor's character. Unfortunately, with her came the degeneration of the brand. And the rotten cherry on top of this cake made of expired cream, Surströmming and Hakarl is that they made yeast out of the Doctor. And why? Well, because yeast reproduces by partitioning. So, as the classic said: "Silence over that coffin."
I don't discredit you but Capaldi was hated on his debut too.

Safe to shave a couple years off that number...
Doctor Who re-invented itself after 16 years of hiatus (1989-2005) I believe this is the time to cancel it again and bring it back maybe 10-15 years later. My father grew up with the original, I grew up with 2005 Doctor Who (till 2016), and I hope my kids will have the same opportunity in 2035+

Yeah, many say the same about that in 2006.
The timeless child causes so many plot wholes and writing issues it amazes me they don’t just act like it never happened and move on. It completely removes all tension from any scene where the doctor could die. Undoes the 11th doctors final episode(that being that he only has one life left and will spend it defending trenzalore) and so much more. It is the “jump the shark” moment of Dr. Who and as long as it’s canon it will forever harm the brand of Dr who
Well it WAS the Jumping the shark moment, unti bi-generation happened. Now according to RTD every past doctors regeneration became bi-generation and the old doctors didnt die as the new ones appeared, and all past canon is now set loose and undefined.
Chibnall changed canon back to the first minute of the show in 1963 and damaged it beyond repair. RTD has erased canon, completely, now only head canon matters and each viewer can make up whatever they want.
I dont think theres any way to come back from that.
Yep, it removes tension, and it removes the reward of the Doctor cheating his way out with bonus regenerations from the Timelords or something. The Bi-generation also removes the bittersweet goodbye of a Doctor and the surprise and time to shine for the new one.
Can't the doctor still die? Like The doctor could still be killed mid-generation and killed off. It was the over arching plot point of a whole season(6?). unless I missed something from the new series in which case I'm sorry.

We know history isn't to our liking, so by lying we can summon forth a new better society. The arrogance with a dollop of self righteousness that these people possess is extremely annoying.
I remember a time when looking at the history, even or especially the ugly stuff was held in high regards. Looking at facts, learning from mistakes. I kind of like this idea to be frank.
Showing history not how it was but how you would like it is a dangerous path, because everyone has a different idea of what it "should" be. That is also an insult to the actual humans who did great things if you miss represent them. Imagine showing the "I have a dream" speech and having a white actor do it. Doesn't feel right. Similarly showing a historical figure that was white as a person of color just doesn't feel right. Facts should not be changed.
Especially since I think showing it and talking in a respectful way how you could improve things has way more meaning then showing something wrong and claiming that's how it should be.
If you censor history, then you ignore its lessons and will inevitably repeat past mistakes

In the episode "Heaven Sent", the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) used his own body''s energy to power a machine that created a copy of himself. So technically, any Who after that episode is not Doctor Who, because The Doctor died to power that machine, using up all of his regeneration energy. To sum up, Classic Who died with that episode, and therefore the blonde chick, the Tennant woke clone, and Shooty Gutwrench are NOT THE DOCTOR.

I keep wishing we ended with Capaldi's run. He have the best version of the ancient time lord following on from Matt Smith holding that same vibe hidden under a childish mask.
In Capaldi's last episode I could feel how tired the time lord was, just wanting to finally stop after over a millennia of running, but "one more lifetime couldn't hurt".
After that they needed to bring their A game, that episode could have been a perfect send of for the show in my eyes so they needed to make the future season perfect to earn the right to keep going on. Instead they dragged it all through the mud, burning the fans, destroying the characters and tainting my favourite send off with their filth.

Yea it is sad indeed. Canonically for me, I have The Husband of River Song as my ending. Or if I’m feeling a sad ending, The Doctor Falls where the Doctor says “Pity, No stars. I thought there would be stars…” and stop it there as his final act of heroism.
For me DW ended after capaldis speach, we cut to his regeneration and it intensifies, obscuring his face as the show ends
As a former star wars fan all I can say to the Whovians is...I am so sorry for your loss
Star Wars, Star Trek and Doctor Who. We have nothing left. 😭
Great time to pick up a hobby while Hollywood drowns.
Thank you from our hearts to yours
@@carolinetaylor5594And Lord of the Rings too 😭
@@romanticrose6822 yes very true.
If they thought Dr. Karen’s ratings were bad, they are going to absolutely crater moving forward.
*Prediction:* Doctor Who has 2-3 years left before cancellation.
Sorry Whovians. It was terrible seeing it happen
Obviously you are not a Whovian.
@@22espec Never said I was. I just feel empathy for families who followed a show for 6 decades watching it actively being destroyed.
Eh. It's a good thing I lost track after Capaldi (12th Doctor).
@@M-S_4321 destroyed? When did that happen? I just saw the return of a villain that fans have begged to retutn gor decades and his return didn't dissapoint and just a wek ago the No Things a new villain was created for the show that really creep me out, so what's the problem? Two Doctor is too much for you? They probably recombine in a few years, hope to be alive to see it, but ubtil then i just enjoy the new adventures.
Well... I was very sceptic about the matt smith doctor, once david tennats run was over - but he smashed it. He became "my doctor" for the foregoing future. So as Peter Capaldi took over, I was a bit sad, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt. And although he never rose to David Tennt or Matt Smith Levels, he was a decent doctor, with his own set of flaws. And then came Jodie Whittaker. I've never seen such a bland, unrecognisable, unsettling and unsympathic Doctor in all of the episodes before. I wanted her to fail and die in every single episode - just to make her run end. There wasn't a single remarkable episode. She managed to take alll the fun and excitement out of this show and made it like a chore to watch. Do you remember the wheeeping angels? The Silence? Even the "the first Dalec" Episode? Those episodes were frightening, and heartbreaking, because of the consequences of the individuals. But this all was gone once Jodie Whittaker was the doctor. Now it was all fun and games. At least for her. Of Course! We shouldn't bond with the companions, they are replaceable and flat. Unless it was a Rose or an Amy / Rory - who really elevated the doctors quirks. Even Donna Noble was remarkable and showed, how odd and far off this ultra powerful, invincible Lifeform really is.. Graham? Who is Ryan? Who is Yaz? Dan? Vinder? Ruby?
Your video was the exact words in my mind... English in my 3ed language and I learned it 2006 because of doctor who... And after i watch last 3 episodes I was messed up for a month... They ruined the best movie and series franchise and that's very sad...😓
This is the way doctor who ends

Not with a bang but a whimper.
I’ve stepped into a new mindset: all of my favorite shows and movies haven’t been “ruined.” They’re all still there (I’m watching Babylon 5 for the 10th time right now). We just have to get used to the idea that anything with the same name is really just slash fiction written by activist losers begging us to care. We don’t.
A blu-ray version of Babylon 5 was released a few days ago.
B5….one of the very best sci-fi stories ever told. Not just because of the special effects, but its character development was incredible.
That's a great way of looking at it. I have pretty much drawn a line; anything made after about 2016(ish) is bordering on woke garbage, and so I tend to stick with shows made earlier than that.
I love B5!
A buddy of mine was obsessed with Who for the longest time, he's not a culture war kind of guy, he doesn't care. But he dipped halfway through Capaldis run and never looked back. It's kind of pathetic how it lost such a huge fan like him.
I gave up at Matt Smith, honestly.
I was such a big fan that I got a Doctor Who tattoo to celebrate the 50th anniversary but pretty much dipped out during the Capaldi era as well when I got tired of watching the doctor be belittled and constantly being told that his companion was a lesbian. I haven't been able to keep myself from paying attention to what happens with the show though and I couldnt help but watch the David Tennant episodes but I have no desire to watch it anymore.
There is only 12 Doctors. Capaldi is the last. They can enjoy their fan fiction.
If The Doctor Was real, he'd see that we are stuck in some sort of confusing story line and try to fix it.
Hearing RTD's asinine comments at multiple awards ceremonies along with the recent embarrassing ad-hominem when confronted with his own hypocrisy on social media, I'm at a loss to understand how this is the same man previously capable of writing entertaining and intelligent drama. It's not even a case of disagreeing with his opinions; the way in which he expresses them comes across as though he's mentally challenged.
I wonder if its got anything to do with his work after Doctor Who...not all of it was a great success and his gay dramas or whatever they were got very low viewing figures and no acclaim from the general public. I am starting to think he went back to Doctor Who not to save it, but to turn it into the same thing those dramas were, but on a show on main stream prime time with a larger audience potential. The BBC thought he was going to improve things and bring the numbers and popularity back, but his agenda is going to continue to drive people away.
You mean "Assine" surely 😂. He cannot separate his work from his personal life.
@@Simon-xc5oy He's certainly chosen to bring his preoccupations with him to Who this time. It's A Sin didn't do too badly commercially and very well critically so he might be riding a wave of progressive hubris rather than making up for perceived failings. Thing is, he's been writing gay comedic dramas for 30 years, which makes it all the more baffling why his recent comments and the way his DW scripts deal with the issues come across like he's a confused old man desperately trying to pander and getting it all embarrassingly wrong.
@@Simon-xc5oy Very interesting take. Almost the way female writers often writen themselves into the story.
The show I was talking about was that one that was on late at night..yes it was Its a Sin and that other drek about cucumbers and toffee or whatever it was called. I just think that he has decided the time is now right and the political will is there to accept his strong gay message etc being put in what is a childrens / family show. To go out to a far larger mainstream audience. Who will turn it off as they dont agree with or like to see that in their entertainment. And all that nonsense with him changing Davros etc when he was the one who brought him back to the show when he first was writing it. He just seems to have lost all touch with what is acceptable to most people because he has been writing the gay dramas for so long, what is normal for him is not normal for most other people. And why he is so bitter and wants to upset long term fans is truly upsetting. They are the reason he brought the show back in 2005! Without those fans it would not have been around for 60 years! And he was one of them. He is not that old either. He is hardly 70 something and walking with a cane...Its like he has been brainwashed or is a totally different person to what he was...he just comes across as an extremist now, where before he seemed to be more moderate and was on the side of those older fans, bringing the show back, getting the Daleks in and the right actors and trying to make the best modern version of the classic show he could. Thats all out the window now, its just agenda galore ....
It´s so infuriating to see the DELIGHT these hacks take in destroying something people love just out of spite
Yes they love it, they enjoy our pain and suffering. They are cultural trolls.
@@pinball8701What an absolute drama queen. It's a show get over yourself 😂😂😂😂😂
@@keiranoshea6748 It is important. RTD has said that it's important to him. Don't pretend it's trivial. If it were so trivial why would they bother doing it? And RTD does enjoy fan baiting i.e. trolling- it's pretty clear from the interviews, old chap.
Go woke, go broke. There are some things you should just not change. The Doctor should not be a woman. The Doctor should not be black. Just leave things alone.
many Native Britons and Irish have been raised to be "open-minded", "tolerant", and passive. The result is our own imminent extinction
Don't forget altruism, it's being used against you
Bingo. Happened when the EEC became the EU and kids were told they were European not Irish.
well...they did convince you that you saved the world twice...at least we're not speaking German
In Doctor Who you can tell a character is brilliant or beautiful because the script will mention it no less than 30 times a minute
Not a Dr. Who fan, but I can empathize. I can so empathize.
As a US fan that spent time and money to go to the doctor who experience I am so sad to see how far this show has fallen
Or you change.
This literally gave me emotional memories of the final episode with David Tennant's 10th Doctor with the phrase "I don't want to go..." Now i say goodbye to Doctor Who in tears. Thanks Disney!!!
Instead of wasting your breath crying about something you don't like, go create something of your own
@@BubbsGold
Instead of taking over intellectual properties that you never had a hand in making in the first place and forcing narratives into them that dont belong... go create something of your own.
Progressive ideologues have spent the better part of a decade acquiring IPs and then injecting it with whatever narratives, breaking canon, and rewriting characters to suit their own ideals, and you have the audacity to tell people "create something of your own."
That is a stunning lack of self-awareness and being disingenuous.
It's seems like the reason why they even do this is because when they do create something original, it fails miserably, so you have to ride on the established stories and fanbase just to get the attention you think you deserve.
You sound like one of those insufferable twats on Reddit and Twitter that say stupid shit like "Why do you care so much?"
I can smell your smugness through my phone.
@Mooshkajoe yeah, go make your own doctor who. Nothing is stopping you or anyone else from making it. As long as you aren't trying to generate revenue, you're not infringing on the IP so go to it! But none of you will. The show hasn't been good in years so I wish someone would. But what I'm not going to sit here and do is cry and cry about how my favorite franchises are dying, I'll just go watch something else. The new star wars trilogy was ass, but I don't see anyone making their own magical space samurai IP, it's not like it's the most complicated shit to write. So you can pretend like I give a fuck about reddit or Twitter and I'm smug, but truly I'm just an adult who doesn't give a fuck if an IP I have great affection for has a new release that I'm not the target demographic for. The problem is that people form their identities around television shows and movies, dedicate too much of their energy and life being fans of said product and suddenly their identity is shattered when the people who own that product sell the latest version to a different target demographic
Thanks Disney? They just bought the broadcast rights -- they don't own Doctor Who. Now Doctor Who is shown in more territories than ever
@@BubbsGold
So if someone enjoys something and it gets taken over and forever changed, they should just go make their own.
Then the cycle repeats.
I get that it's cringe to wrap your identity around a fictional story, but that's reaching. Not everyone who enjoys something is a rabid cosplaying fantard that goes apeshit over small details and cries while watching trailers.
You're intentionally dodging the point with your "I don't really care" attitude and expecting other people to not care, and they are somehow wrong for not seeing it your way or adopting your view on it and they are somehow wrong. Yeah, you're being pretty smug.
People would have the same reaction if they always like going to a park and then show up one day, and it's been torn up with trash everywhere. If they complain about it, the people who trash the place mock them and tell them if they don't like it, they can leave.
Just because you don't see it through the lens others do doesn't magically make it not a problem.
If you truly didn't care, then why are you even here?
I'll answer that for you. To be a condescending asshole. That's it.
The fact that you even responded means you care about this. A lot. Maybe too much yourself. So much so you feel it necessary to shit on the people here.
So... who's really mad here?
Either you're a seething and coping fan, or you're intentionally burning strawmen and actually like this shit because I've seen enough people who unironically enjoy this forced progressive washing say the exact same shit you did.
"And another one bites the dust." Thanks, Disney, for destroying everything you touch.
You do realise Disney isn't the one writing!?!
Honestly, the real problem for the show is that it seems to be playing more to an American audience, and the general dumbing down of certain things in the series. Disney? There is a great chance that it will ruin the show... I said what I said... I love the show, but weep for the Americanisation of it.
The worst part is, most of the American Audience doesn't want this either. We already watched this happen to starwars and startrek and Marvel studios. I mostly watch youtube now when I was an avid movie and tv watcher in the past. My 1st reaction to the end of the female doctor was hope it might get better. Then I started hearing quotes from interviews about the new doctor and that hope died.
I'm done with it, and I'm proud of you and AZ for walking away too. I gave up on the show in 2016 but have always kept an eye on the news, clips, reviews, etc. But no more. There is only so much you can take of your favourite show being violated and torn asunder.
Cry some more.
Lol they will be back to watch the next one. They either watch it multiple times to make these videos which is sad already, or they don’t and talk shit which is even sadder.
@@chazo1367 How's your copium doing with that 4.6 million audience number there Chaz?
You get a blip for Christmas day, and next year Ncuti is going to try and take Jodies' crown for the lowest audience ever. Can he/they/them do it? Don't tune in and find out!
Invasion of the Body Snatchers turned out to be a good allegory for Doctor Who, Star Trek, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, etc.
They’re all just aliens wearing skin-suits, pretending to be someone they’re not - staring at you with soulless eyes, wearing the faces of the people they killed.
I'm not a Dr. Who fan personally, but as a fan of other similarly murdered franchises, you in the Dr.Who fandom have my sympathy and condolences.
I've heard it argued that Dr.Who died the worst death of all the violated franchises, to which I was initially skeptical, but after what I've heard about these Specials and the look at the new season, I think agree.
I don't know if Dr. Who is the worst murdered/plundered franchise...
Amazon's Wheel of Prime (Time) is a complete perversion of the original books... and "oddly" enough... it's another show run by a... person like Chibnal and Davies.
Really? Is the same RTD as the 2005 show. Never change.
@@Nyet-Zdyes Wheel of Time is one I know almost nothing about, the book or the show, other than the show is terrible. But I thought Shad or Disperu said the author had no control over the show, he made suggestions and Amazon just ignored him. That's what I imagine must really sting the Who fans, having a celebrated former head of the show (2nd best thing to the creator) return, not to save it, but to put the final nail in the coffin, and personally join in on attacking the fans online. Brutal.
Doctor who was once a show that even a few years ago gave us magnificent commentary, or at least solid commentary, that most folks could support. I think specifically of a moment during Peter Capaldi's reign where he gives a magnificent monolog on the idea that, "War sucks, don't go to war if it can be avoided. If you use your brain, it can always be avoided." We went from that to, in the span of about two years, a badly written alternative history magic schoolbus.
The villain in that episode I mentioned was the greater concept of War itself. One of Jodie Whittaker's earliest episodes, the villain was a time traveling Neo-Nazi who's entire goal was to prevent Rosa Parks from ever even getting on the bus. That same episode featured Doctor King, and he had barely 6 lines and was irrelevant to any of the actual plot. Jodie could have been awesome. She was a decent actress. She was given absolute crap to work with though.
@SaraLanc3 Please, the Third Doctor era feel woke now.
this mistake will be bigger than you think.... I hear Star Wars fans saying "welcome to our world"
The 50th anniversary special can be seen as a nice book ending to the entire franchise.
The 11th Doctor saving Gallifrey with the help of his past selves and he will now go back home through the longest path. No need for more episodes after that one.
This makes me sad, I'm 61 and grew up with the Doctor; who is completely unrecognizable to me now.
Fun fact, The Doctor changes actors every few years. I know, one would think you'd know that being a long-time fan, but that's the entire point of the show. It changes.
@@arkainin4638fun fact , no one like this woke bs they force down everyone's throat nowadays. It's just getting worse , and worse hasn't been any decent writing or plot points since capaldi.
