The new series of Doctor Who hasn't exactly gone down well. In fact, its caused a storm of controversy as the actors and showrunner lash out at their own dwindling fanbase.

    1989: "Please don't cancel Doctor Who!" 2024: "For the love of God, please cancel Doctor Who!"

    It's an interesting strategy to keep the show fresh. Previously they've replaced companions, they've replaced the Doctor. Now they're trying to replace the audience.

    The problem is RTD thinking this is "his" Doctor Who. No it's not, Russel. You have a responsibility to more than your personal agenda. It's not "your" show. Your its custodian. Too many filmmakers today are like this, and their shows and movies suck because of it.

    I am a gay man, and I REALLY can't stress enough how much the vast majority of gays can't stand this cringe agenda pushing being done in our name by a minority of loud activist bullies.

    A general rule is: if someone says they are “gay” they are busy being a regular person in society; anyone who screams they are “Queer” is an activist who thinks you and society needs to change to the way they want.

    You know it's bad when the title says "Doctor Who" but the thumbnail shows "Bette Midler from Hocus Pocus"

    This is Davies from 20 years ago. He's now allowed to do whatever he wants. Eccleston hinted at the real reason why he only did one season, and Davies was a big part of that.

    "You don't like our woke garbage show? Haha joke's on you we made it more woke and more garbage!" It's a bold strategy for sure.

    Less than 2% of the population isn’t going to carry your show…they just totally alienated 98% of their potential viewers.

    As someone related to one of the original Dr Who writers, (60-s till 86) I am stunned but not surprised by this BBC reach around nonsense. Dr Who should be scary, brave, mind blowing. It's doing all of this, but in the wrong ways. Dr Who was never about pandering

    I read in a different comment section that the actor playing the maestro has been banned from almost every gay club in London for going in, getting completely fall down drunk and compelling the patrons to sexually assault the people working there. If true, that doesn’t just make him a terrible actor, but a terrible person irl
  • This is what happens when you put your television show in the hands of a bitter old queen.
  • @JohnSmith-ls3um
    When I first saw the Maestro I thought, “Bette Midler’s character from Hocus Pocus is in Doctor Who?”
  • @Big_Green
    I remember correctly I seen an interview with Davies about the newest season and he said something to the effect of 'no one would dare to tell him no'. Honestly, you can tell that nobody told him no.
