Doctor Who was able to give us proper genderfluid rep AND a proper self love story meanwhile Loki gave us a piece of paper & selfcest…
Just goes to show you that hiring writers who actually give a shit about the character they are writing for MATTERS 💅🏻
#DoctorWho
Overall RTD, BBC & Disney ruined Ncuti’s era with the half ass writing, limited episode run, and overshadowing his entrance & departure with desperate nostalgia bait & I will never forgive them for it
I’ll never apologise for being excited that the writer who wrote the era of Doctor Who that made me fall in love with it was returning but damn was that stupid in retrospect.
Ignore it. Start afresh with a new ‘16th’ Doctor. Then later on, throw in a line like -
‘The regeneration process is a bit messy. Sometimes I get sick or lose my memory. Once I turned into an old friend of mine for a few minutes before settling on my final form.’
Done.
kinda crazy that Jo Martin, who debuted over six years ago, is The Doctor of this new Wilderness Era.
They might as well make some new content with the Fugitive Doctor like online minisodes or new Tales of the TARDIS or something if this is all we’re getting for a while.
What I’m most angry with rtd about is the regeneration. If this was always the plan, either Fifteen shouldn’t have regenerated or the ending should’ve been left open-ended. They shouldn’t have shown Billie Piper. Neither the fans, nor Ncuti, nor Billie deserved this #DoctorWho
I hope this time, if the show ever comes back, the BBC have learned the most important lesson:
Don't make yourselves dependent on profit-driven american bloody companies who can easily fuck off and leave you hanging
I don't like being negative, but that statement from RTD is infuriating. Effectively saying: "There never was a Christmas special, we made it up, and if you're disappointed by that it was your own fault for believing me."
Dr Who is Rose Tyler
The Master is a tooth
Susan doesn’t exist yet
Rogue is in hell
Belinda has been lobotomised
Ruby was abandoned again
The Rani was eaten by Absolute Omega
Where do you go from here tbf
The fact the future wasn't certain when they reshot the Reality War so we now don't have an active Doctor for the Wilderness Years 2.0 is potentially the worst thing the production team did...?
I fucking ADORED Ncuti's Doctor and the fact he's been done so badly is outragious
I think I speak on behalf of the Doctor Who fandom when I say you could swap the ending of The Reality War with this and we’d all forget that the other ending ever happened. Okay?
