Disney has officially ended their co-production deal, but the BBC will continue to produce the show with a one off Christmas special next year starring Billy Piper, written by the legendary Russell T Davies and introducing a new companion ahead of a full season 3 to premiere in 2027.

Nah, he regenerated into Rose Tyler.
But there might have been a secret bi-generation that we didn’t see with the Jodie Doctor.
>>
>>215562009
>bi-generation
How did they fuck up one of the most defining concepts of their own show? Every Doctor should have an ending, otherwise whats the point of the regeneration?
>>
>>215562282
I always thought RTD doesn't really know how to write science fiction and he gets worse every day.

it's Doctor Who, not Doctor Gay Black People
>>
>>215561859
What for? Who even watches this anymore? The final Capaldi season was shit, I managed to force myself through a few episodes of Dr. Whoman and that's it. Couldn't even be fucked to watch Gaynigger from outer space. Apparently others didn't either since Disney didn't care about co-producing more shit.
>>
It's over, give it up. The desperation is obvious bringing back a beloved character from the glory days. They were going to make her the Doctor and everyone hated it. Even the old fans aren't buying the shit they serve up now.
>>
>RTD still there
Shant be watching.
>>
>>215561859
I want Doctor Nigger to stay gone
>>
>>215562580
The BBC seem to be desperate to make this version of DW work somehow. It's ideological to them to not have to admit that people just liked the Doctor when he was a white heterosexual man, and that's all they're interested in seeing.
>>
>>215562009
wat? he regenerated into Rose blowjob Tyler. Was she still alive in the timeline?
>>
>>215562009
I'd like to see Rose be Bi with the 13th Doctor, if you get my meaning.

You had me worried for a bit then. The article doesn't mention this at all, so i can assume the special will be just to wrap up all of RTD's retarded era and provide a clean slate for a future return of the show

i don't get it. why do they keep russel t davies up?
he already proved to only be capable of producing shit. season 1 was shit, season 2 was shit. but i thought that would be it. no one would willingly burn money, right?
so why are they actually burning money on this? are they actually this stupid?
>>
>>215562580
The last Capaldi season was one of the best seasons, what are you on about lmao

Legendary. This huge faggot ran it into he ground. On his first run his blatant shoehorning of homosex put me off, but I still watched as it hadn't reached the fuckery it got over the last couple of years. He's a fucking awful writer.should bhe get proprs for bringing it back? Why? Anyone could have done it and anyone else probably should have. The blatant left learning homos of the BBC waited to bring him back to subvert kids and all he did succeed in was turning viewship down.
It was a tradition for a good couple of years to watch an Xmas dr who special but no longer.
It's dead. Bringing up piper was his hail Mary. No one wants this shit. Llet to die for 10 years and bring it back with a showrunner with sci fi cred and budget. And writers who shift this into a proper dark sci fi show. But right now it's still fucking homos all around. Disney killing this should have gotten him fired. Instead he'll try and tone down his momo urges to indoctrinate little kids and wait until times past so he can subtly do it again. No more faggot! Die of aids!

Is Georgia Moffett really that shit of an actor that they won't take the obvious route of having her as a Time Lord?
>>
>>215561859
the next doctor should be a shota boy doctor played by owen cooper
>>
>>215563133
well, hardcore Doctor Who fans (the ones still watching, I mean), seem to have walled themselves into this narrative that somehow Disney and too much budget was the problem, when clearly it's Davies and all of his friends who can't write for shit, that are the problem.
>>
Just have this lil nigga show up, and everyone has a laugh about a woman and a black doctor.
>>
>>215563767
I'm into the "Doctor wakes up with a new body and missing memories, and we just move on" concept. Let the audience decide how much of anything is canon. How much does it even matter?
>>
>>215563678
Doctor Who fans are the most uncritical people on the entire planet. You could serve them a bucket of shit and they'd slurp it up if it had "DW" written on the side.
>>

>How much does it even matter?

chibnall had 0 respect for the established lore, davies did the same.

if a new shorunner came up and said "everything after peter capaldi was a bad nightmare induced by the master", it would be on the same level of quality and retconning that both chibnall and davies did
actually it might be more entertaining to watch
>>
>>215563133
>no one would willingly burn money, right?
When you effectively have infinite money due to being taxpayer funded. Yes, they would willingly burn money as long as The Message gets across.
>>
>>215564039
but it doesn't, really. the shit they produce pushes people to the other side.
>>
>>215563678
I think that they had a too large budget after tennatnts first run. I really liked the rubber monsters and such. You had to rely on your imagonation to make the show work.

RTD has written television i like, including 100% straight-up faggotry. Queer as Folk is good.

but at this point i'm convinced he has skeletons in his closet. every male actor (besides Eccleston) from the reboot was a bit dodgy and/or an outright sex criminal.

but he's just a cheeky chappy, our Russell. a bit like John Nathan-Turne--WAIT NO
>>
>>215564210
He seems like someone who enables bullying on set if he thinks it's funny and doesn't let anyone tell him otherwise. Barrowman was doing straight up harassment and Tennant and Tate thought it was hilarious thing to talk about, Tennant farted on set to gross out Freema.

I imagine that a zoomer girl like Gibson wouldn't put up with this and that's why she quit and turned the plot into a shitshow. Serves him right.
>>
>>215564035
if I were the showrunner, I'd have the Master dive into the Doctor's time stream to rip open the time vortex to sell as an energy source, to trick people into burning up time itself to fuel their greed
I'd bring back Eccleston as the Master and a new actor for the Doctor, with Capaldi as a secondary Doctor that only stays around while the time vortex is open
the only way to save the universe is to blow up the time vortex, which undoes all of the bullshit that Chibnall and Davies caused, gives an ending to the Doctor's original timeline, and setting the show back to a clean slate
is it lazy? yes
is it a way to save the show? yes
>>
>>215564253
I'd just do a time skip and most of it would be too irrelevant to mention again.

We just have another episode structured like Rose and that would be it.
>>
>>215564210
>Queer as Folk is good.
please put a plastic bag over your head and scotch tape around your neck
>>
>>215564268
that's more realistic but also doesn't solve the problems
I don't think the fans want a continuation of the bullshit, they want a fresh start
>>
we can all agree that Toby Whithouse should be the new showrunner, right?
>>
>>215564253
that's a reboot and it might work, but i personally would prefer a complete undo of chibnall and davies 2. same way they undid the doctor's personal story and regeneration mechanics.
literally go back to the timeless child and make it the master, literally go back to the toymaker and uno all the episodes from that point on.
>>
>>215564210
>every male actor (besides Eccleston) from the reboot was a bit dodgy and/or an outright sex criminal.
apart from probably shagging Jenna Coleman, what did Capaldi ever do wrong?
>>
>>215564290
Fans don't care as much as they think they do. They like to theorycraft on their own, but on screen it'll be a waste of time.

That's the mistake of Chib and RTD2, they theorycraft on screen. This is a tempting but toxic activity.
>>
>>215564313
>from the reboot
You quoted the answer yourself

>>215564252
>Barrowman was doing straight up harassment and Tennant and Tate thought it was hilarious thing to talk about, Tennant farted on set to gross out Freema.

the latter is fine, really. not my sense of humour but actors do stupid shit (been watching those Lord of the Rings behind-the-scenes clips lately, good stuff).

but yeah getting your cock out, Errol Flynn style, that takes a specific group of mates. the sort of thing you really shouldn't assume is funny to everyone by default.

wouldn't bother me or tar someone by association BUT our RTD is over-correcting about the strangest shit when it comes to the content of the actual show. Queer as Folk was once 'progressive', now it's about an ephebophile groomer who doesn't get arrested and that is NOT okay!!!1
>>
>>215564325
oh you mean from 2005
yeah that makes a lot more sense

Pete McTighe - has show run before, has written episodes for the show recently and is in charge of the new spinoff is the most likely candidate.

Personally, I'd prefer someone completely new who has never touched the show before. Get us out of this spiral of classic era fan showrunners

wouldn't mind an anthology series that just so happens to pop up on telly at random. different writers, different (or same) Dr Who.

they're basically already there with the hiatuses and "this year it'll be a few specials" so why not?

>>215564439
Stranger Things ends soon, so they could get the team who did that, except they're probably too expensive for the BBC and even worse, American.

It can't be good because there's a black woman in it who is a lesbian

It's illegal for it to be anything but shit

>>215564593
I don't even remember the lesbian part but she was just really boring and kinda ugly. And ignoring her more than half the season just felt really half assed. Obviously it's still better than what came afterwards but that is really not that high of a bar.
>>
>>215564593
>a black woman in it who is a lesbian
and they forgot about it.

>"mum, i have something to tell you..."
>mum disappears
>fucks off with a space puddle witch

??? reminds me of how the Danny Pink stuff felt unresolved. his great-great-great...-grandson is a time traveller from the end of time. and then he just dies. or at least "dies" by NuWho standards: every "dead" character reappears as, essentially, a ghost.
>>
>>215564649
I liked when they remembered "oh shit Bill is a lesbian, let's have her on a date with another lesbian black girl" and then the Doctor parked the TARDIS in her bedroom and out comes the Pope and several cardinals
>>
>>215564633
Personally my favorite were those ancient aliens who ran a gorillion simulations in order to take over the world eventually but never came up with the concept of giving NPCs their own seeds and shit so they wouldn't find out they're in a simulation by being forced to say the same number at exactly the same time. That's some really riveting scifi shit.
>>
>>215564674
as far as simulation stories go, it wasn't half bad
>>
>>215564649
>and they forgot about it.
ah yes, she definitely wasn't saved from a beautiful tragic death by a female magic puddle that wanted to fuck her.
>>
>>215564674
that CERN scene was pretty kino. VNA-level dark.
>>
>>215564674
it's literally "done to death SF stories 101, #1".
Moffat doing that was the definitive proof that even him had completely ran out of EU ideas to rip-off and the series was really done for.
>>
>>215564733
so then her mum loses her daughter?

one of the best things NuWho did was give the companions a home life. little bit of soap opera to break up the time travel. i care way more about some everyday human drama than i do sappy space magic while Murray Gold yells "THIS IS EMOTIONAL!" in my ear.
>>
>>215564796
I'm not talking about the first episode but about the puddle girl returning at the end of the last episode to magically save Bill from dying as a Mondasian Cyber(wo)man.
>>
>>215561859
It's time to accept that this show is dead and just enjoy what came before it went completely off the rails, there are plenty of episodes. Download everything, there are good torrents and it's all available, even old Who. My stopping point is just after series 7 of nuWho with the episode The Day of the Doctor. It actually works really well as a final episode, every previous doctor makes an appearance and the ending wraps everything up pretty nice. Capaldi's brief appearance just looks like old Tom Baker who is heavily implied to be another future Doctor. You'll miss out on a couple of decent Capadi episodes, but they are nowhere near enough to ignore they collapse in quality during his run. Its better to dismiss everything after Smith and pretend it didn't happen. As for oldWho, I skipped a lot of filler episodes, but that still leaves dozens and dozens still worth watching. I'm not wasting my time in hope that this show will be good again. It's already been ruined and raped beyond all recognition, and there isn't the talent or the desire at the BBC to fix it.

In a just world, the next Doctor Who would be a sneaky manlet like Troughton. But as we live in hell world it'll be non-gender conforming LGBTQ POC or some such nonsense. I really wish they had just ended this embarrassment long ago
