The Doctor is a mysterious person with a time machine who likes to explore with it, helping if he sees trouble, often with someone else.

That is the only thing you can really say Doctor Who always does, except in "Season" 7 and 8 when they didn't even have the TARDIS. Anything besides this is excess.

"Time Lords" - made up for the last Second Doctor story, it took them six years to put them in. And the word "Gallifrey" took another five!

Classic Who is trash

Go away, Davies.

Where do we stream nu-who? All my usual sites are annoying and choppy.

I can't believe I'm saying this but if I had the choice I would happily let the Timeless Children stay canon if it meant we could retcon everything RTD has done to the concept of regeneration since he came back. I'd gladly make that trade and I fucking hate the Timeless Child storyline.

Degenerating back into David Tennant, biregeneration, the "I went through therapy at some point in your future even though I literally just came into existence a minute ago" nonsense, and now regenerating into a former companion. RTD has taken what is supposed to be a major event of passing the torch and moving forward in the series, and reduced it to an act of creatively bankrupt attentionseeking primarily aimed at tabloids and clickbait headlines.

My head canon will always be Capaldi died for good.

Retcon all nuWho. Only way they can fix the mess.

Planet of the incels.

we pirate it

RTD's Doctor is more of an incel than that dude ever was. Imagine still being so obsessed with Rose that you start skinwalking as her half a dozen regenerations and thousands of years later. There's actually something uncomfortably autogynephilic about it.

perfectly worded
even worse when a 'regeneration event' human clone of yourself got to grow old with her AND you still can get over it

holy fucking tripe

That was S27

i have every episode up to Capaldi (minus recreations) on my plex server

My idea to save the show is to have Clara and Amy Pond make out. And in the next episode, Jodie Whittaker makes out with Clara, then Amy the next episode. Then they have a lesbian threesome. Lather, rinse and repeat with whoever this chick was (I haven't watched Dr. Who since sometime in Capaldi's run).
I would also include River Song but she's probably been brutally walled by now.

The Interstellar Song Contest

i can't wait to get back to series 8

This is probably my least favorite episode that I've seen since I started re-watching this show 5 years ago.

It had pretty much everything: predictable outcome, dull characters, mischaracterization of the Doctor, Graham Norton, the works.
Why would you present this race of traumatized aliens and make the Doctor torture one of them? Because he was triggered? Are you fucking serious?

The writer for this episode, Juno Dawson, has only ever professionally written for some Big Finish audios and audiobooks, all related to Doctor Who. Maybe that's for the best.

has potential, lipsync AI has to improve some, the movements get repetitive with longer audios
good idea except it should be a foursome with me

RTD has crashed and burned NuWho. Ncuti was a mistake. The jeeta companion was ridiculously unlikable. Bring back Chibnall.

RTD.jpg - 209x288, 42.37K

Belinda was sexy as fuck

his plan all along. he destroyed his own legacy to give his best pal a second chance. showed him how good we had it but took him for granted. RTD is... le good?

R2D > Chibnall

My problem with most fan stories is that they rely to heavily on callbacks to things that happened in the past.

Do we know who sang the voice of Dugga Doo
I feel that it might be a pretty girl :3

Same. I keep seeing things like bring back *character* and let them meet *character*.

It's the same reason I dislike Big Finish.

It was me and I have a hairy ass.

i'm gonna have a couple beers watching these last two eps

are you a girl though crucially
a hairy ass is not a dealbreaker if you're female

I am the man in that picture

You know, I was never bothered by the romance at the time but seeing what it's produced makes me think the classic guys has a point. Romance between a human girl and an ancient, face swapping alien does lead to some fucked up territory.

Also isn't trying to look exactly like your former lover what one of the Wachowkis did? The one with red hair.

Not a fan of the Jackie Tyler Extended Universe? I've never even listened to any with her in, how the fuck do they wedge Rose's mum into so many stories?

I've heard from others that her stuff is decent enough, with the most praise going towards her 13th Doctor book.

Dunno what happened here.

Not a clue lmao. Apparently Big Finish was good at one time? I'm not so sure. Any time I give it a chance I'm left disappointed.

her

The writer for this episode, Juno Dawson, has only ever professionally written for some Big Finish audios and audiobooks, all related to Doctor Who.

You know, I'm reminded of how Shigeru Miyamoto specifically tries to find artists who've never worked on video games before to contribute to Nintendo games.

in the rose tyler dimension cannon audios she had forgotten how to do the chav voice completely
has she done stuff between then and now

Why would you present this race of traumatized aliens and make the Doctor torture one of them?

One of the most 'what the fuck am I watching' moments of nuwho, including Timeless Child

What's wrong with Graham Norton?

Confess /who/

20934.jpg - 1920x1878, 374.29K

There is a crazy amount of shit that supposedly happens to her during Series 2. It's hard to reconcile her loneliness in Love & Monsters with Big Finish having the likes of Captain Jack and River Song popping round hers for tea everyday.

idk i always found the celebrity cameos weird. graham's alright

Has Chibnall ever spoken either at a "fan" convention or in an interview after his run?

I remember a year or so ago she did voiceovers for Boots adverts with a posh accent, not too dissimilar from Cassandra. The weird thing is after that the Boots ads got Freema voicing them.

I confess that I want her to do to me irl

He probably keeps a low profile and doesn't bring up Doctor Who at all.
Like JJ Abrams with Star Wars.

She's so fucking hot

I can't imagine how the average BigFinish listener dresses themselves in the morning. I really can't.

can't wait to hear about Susan, the Abzorbalof, and Jackie's adventure!

Belinda was the highlight of s2 until RTD sidelined her for reshoots.

Belinda (9).jpg - 1080x1103, 141.14K

It's the same reason I dislike Big Finish.

i don't mind character focused ones like the War Master series is usually self-contained stories that merely give an underutilized character time to shine. but most of it is just memberberries slop.

it's always been primarily memberberries but as of late it's been crumbling under woke+the general nepotism of the Doctor Who brand.

nick briggs comes over and dresses us every morning

Would impregnate

I intend to watch, read, and aurally consume every piece of Doctor Who multimedia storytelling in chronological order. It's been a long-standing goal of mine. Right now it's just Short Trips and 1st Doctor Adventures and a couple of Companion Chronicles slotted between Hartnell episodes. I expect it will become really messy around Tom Baker.

I'm convinced that RTD is the mastermind behind BigFinish because they're both just "hey member when".

Show's dead but I'm perversely satisfied by how the attempts to 'diversify' the Doctors has backfired. Back when Whittaker came there were people genuinely optimistic that we could finally get something different and move towards a future where anyone could be the Doctor. 7 years later this experiment has failed and has seemingly solidified the idea of the white male 1-12 Doctors being the only 'real' ones, because as soon as it diverged from the 'real ones' the show derailed itself completely.

i think Billie coming back is retarded but Jenna would kill it

What a stupid whore

to be fair a lot of that was born from the show's initial cancellation, and now the actors in their golden years can kind of go back and relive the good old days. i really don't mind it in that context. but they've really been scraping the bottom of the barrel just hounding anyone who's even been an extra before and begging them to appear in audio stories, it's utterly bizarre.

THE MASTER LOCKED THE SENPAI IN ME FOOKEN TARDIS!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifteenth_Doctor

The Fifteenth Doctor regenerated in the series 15 finale, "The Reality War", into a character played by Billie Piper.

This is genuinely moronic
Even TARDIS Wiki are accepting her as Sixteen
It is such cope to suggest otherwise

it's absolutely vile that russell managed to turn regeneration into a ritual of nostalgiawank and regression when it's supposed to be about breathing new life into the story

I get why the old actors wanna do it. I just don't get why people actually buy it.

I love how every time I check the Doctor wikipedia page the home planet and species section switches from "unknown" to "time lord/gallifrey", it's a constant back and forth edit war
They also don't have a consistent definition of "last appearance" for their character articles, for ages they classed Day of the Doctor as Rose's last appearance, some of the classic companions even have a separate "non-canonical appearances" section with Dimensions in Time which would give a wiki editor an aneurysm kek

Thank goodness the era of Zorro the Gay Blade is fucking over.

I thought the cope was that Billie/Rose/Bad Wolf/The Moment replaced the Doctor in some sort of teleport bodyswap. Wikipedia is really having their cake and eating it by saying that the Doctor regenerated into Not the Doctor.

No.

Wanna be part of that mahogany sandwich.

She actually makes sense as well because the Doctor literally spent billions of years thinking of her.

Russell has accounted for that by introducing bog-generation to the lore.

34.png - 1920x954, 1.76M

No.
She'd be a better choice than Billie but JLC/Clara's already left her mark on the show. Move on. Regeneration is not for nostalgia fanwank.

remember when they made the master an indian

would've been perfect

Learn to read.

If you think that's bad, try picking up a copy of this book.
It will give you an aneurysm.

Jodie's doing the Asda ones too.

a big part of what was going on with like G4 and the normification of gaming back in the mid 2000s was turning gaming into another capitalist brand identity that you're sold. buying and consuming are how you express identity under this system. so for some people it doesn't even matter if it's good or not, it's part of their identity as a fan. buying and consuming Big Finish is just another way for them to engage in this ritual.

BONUS: It fully explains the "UNIT dating controversy".

I'd pat Jodie's ass if you know what I mean

Salamander.png - 844x920, 296.62K

the doctor canonically spent billions of years thinking of clara

rose is somehow the overly important showrunner waifu

Briggs was part of the Fitzroy clique along with RTD, Moff, and Chinballs. They have been involved with Doctor Who for more than 30 years. They have run out of ideas long ago but refuse to let go.
Not many people do.

LOL, because "The Enemy of the World" was set in 2018.

Watching "Rose" it's so 00's. i love it

Why did Moffat let this happen? He clearly knew what was coming. Why not futureproof the show somehow?

When it was firing on all cylinders, the stories were actually pretty new and ground-breaking.
Actually doing something with the 6th Doctor that isn't his crappy era - great.
Actually doing something with the 8th Doctor that isn't his crappy movie - great.
Stories that are just weird and creative, and stuff you never would have seen on TV in the 80's - great

I don't really care to hear further River Song adventures, where she meets a succession of characters you recognise. Seems creatively bankrupt as a thing.

Before RTD turned to the dark side

How do you suggest he should have stopped RTD from being a gay retard?

Fun Fact: The Target novelization of that serial was penned by Ian Marter (aka Harry Sullivan).

+1

RTD2's sins are amplified by the retardation of the Chib Era.

The Fitzroy Faggots ran out of ideas in the 90s
They should be put down

I just learned about this. wtf Russell, you big fat Welshman? We're way past ridiculous now.
Also I guess all RTDtards will have to shut the fuck up about the so-called "Clara Who" era of the show now, huh?

this kid's adorable. did this face after the line: "we're a biological dead end"

BADABOOMBAA

hot jodie

That's Hunter Whatshisface.

It was good in the wilderness era because it wasn't memberberry shit, it was creative and carrying on the show
Same with some of the books

what the fuck is that?

that broom looks upset

You're not wrong.
According to RTD himself, he had just finished up producing "Queer As Folk" for ITV, and the BBC called him up and asked what would convince him to come and work for Auntie Beeb instead. Bless his heart, the little fucker had only two words for them. "Doctor Who".

he doesn't know

they fucked her shit up

HUNGRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

ITV

Correction: CBC

predicted Tennant, Piper and NPH

We're meant to believe that this nigger worked with the Doctor for 12 months and never clued in that he was gay.

Anita Benn.jpg - 1080x1350, 167.07K

Once Tennant came back everything was possible. Also no one could have predicted RTD going full retard. Except Judy.

STILL WRONG
Channel 4

It'd be nice if Big Finish just flat out made a full time original Doctor at this point, and targeted that as the future of their brand, considering all of the classic series guys are getting old as fuck, and you have to move on eventually.
Step one: find actor with good voice

Think it was that he was romantically involved with another person. She might have thought he was just bi.

If only she knew that Rogue is burning in hell now.

Did the Piper thing just dropped?
The show is getting canceled anyway, right? That was just Rusty's ave Maria?

Tennant and Piper were often at the top of bookies favourites whenever an actor left

I swear, every showrunner since Moffat has been justified by saying "there was no one else who would take the show!", but that feels like total bullshit to me - I refuse to believe that there was not a single soul in the TV industry with experience in Britain who wouldn't have taken the show if it were offered to them when either Chibnall or RTD2 took the reins. So what's really going on there?

ngl she looks too old to be pregnant

Anita doesn't do sloppy seconds. She has a strict Virgins Only policy.

old

She's just ugly, anon.

BBC is way too protective of the brand to allow any of this to happen. Big Finish are banned from having their own incarnations.
Obviously the edgiest stuff of the VNAs wouldn't be approved, but even stuff like the War Doctor being shown to be the evil war criminal he was suggested to be was banned whenever Hurt did his audios because the Doctor just can't be seen to be evil.

So what's really going on there?

Fitz. Roy. Tav. Ern.

No she doesn't, she doesn't even have grey hair.

I've been eating a lot of fat-free yoghurt

I don't even hate Billie but this shit is so wanky it hurts. It's like Indian burning your dick, y'know?

No she isn't.

Missy's arc ends with the Doctor trying to redeem her

Followed up by the Pajeet Master who, as it quickly becomes clear, did not redeem

Cannot make this shit up lmao

The time to crush all trannies is at hand.

The show that this pic is from (The Jetty) was kinda okay/mid until the ending.

Says a lot about the state of the show that I look at this post and wonder if it's inane babble or something RTD cooked up. The pic, I mean.

You're a lil niglet?

She's also still out there too. If they needed some time before finding the next Doctor they could have just followed her.

"no one else would take the show!" with the caveat that the BBC are an insular and protective organisation of gatekeepers, and the Doctor Who clique within the BBC are a further insular and protective organisation of gatekeepers.
I'm sure people have asked and the response has been "firstly, no. And secondly even if we said yes, you would have to follow every regulation we throw at you, and basically you wouldn't have creative control", at which point people turn around and walk the other way.
I'm sure Mark Gatiss would have done it by now, if they just let him do whatever he wanted. I believe the Being Human guy also expressed an interest, and got ignored.

PLEASE LET IT STAY DEAD
PLEASE

No, but I do spend a lot of time doubting jewish lies

Speak English.

I'm sure Mark Gatiss would have done it by now, if they just let him do whatever he wanted

If he stuck to producing rather than writing and brought the Inside No.9 guys as writers, I'd be game.

Faggot.

Good casting. Gives me 11 and Amy vibes on looks alone. Also like his hair, it's very classic who.

Fuck me, that was a based magazine.

I want her to step on me.

head of a shadowy organization is a jew

what did russel mean by this?

Is there anyone who doesn't think the show was peak when they started watching?

Me.
Took me over a year to watch the second episode after the drivel that was Rose.

I'm a 2005fag but also a supreme gentleman so I know that the show was peak in the 60s.

The 8th Doctor expanded media is where the brand pretty definitively peaked as a thing.

for me it's the game where they had to find the italian guy from turn left who had escaped from the labour camp to win a free UNO set

How do you know they're lies?

Wouldn't you like to know, mister Anonstein?

supreme gentleman

So you're an incel?

Hauer-King was raised in Canonbury, North London in architect Jan Kaplický's award-winning designed Hauer-King House, the son of Debra Hauer, an American psychotherapist and former theatre producer originally from Walnut Creek, California, and Jeremy King, a prominent London restaurateur originally from Burnham-on-Sea, Somerset. Hauer-King has dual British-American citizenship and was raised in his mother's Jewish faith. His mother's family were Polish Jewish immigrants, initially to Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I'm just saying, but I think Ncuti Gatwa has only dated white guys.
He just has that "look", you know?

Like he wants to be tamed yeah, I know.

Can someone please ban the Clarafag? I'm getting sick of this. Add "posted by Clarafag" to the list of report options.

Only episode where you see the Doctor angry

"cos you have put ice in my heart, darling."

Just sounds like a fag

Thank God for Disney dragging out the production so Ncuti goes and fucks off somewhere else

At least it isn't jennacuck.

Yes I'm familiar with the works of Tariq Nasheed.

Jenna Coleman would be a great Doctor. For some reason, this upsets the LGBTQ community.

Genderbent John Constantine

Picks fucking Clara

She was fucking awful in that show. At least pick someone sexy

Lmao

Or you know, someone who looks like he could glass you in a dive bar. Not a pretty doll.

Gay

Jewish

Yuck.

Polish

Double yuck.

Exactly, Constantine is supposed to be intimidating. Jenna Coleman has got no edge to her

idk man I edge to her

Antisemitism is bad.

Now it makes so much sense

Wish World/The Reality War

it's finally over

What a big, beautiful mess. Throughout this whole season, I've been wondering, "What happened to Russell T. Davies? Seriously, what the fuck happened?", and I think after watching this two-parter, I think I'm willing to chalk it up to him simply being older, and, perhaps, gentler. That's all. Lots of writers lose talent the older they get, and I don't think Disney having a significant financial interest helps either. I have some more thoughts on this that I will include in the final notes for this season in the tier list.

I think that bringing the Rani back is fine, and Archie Panjabi delivered that 80s arch-villain performance so well that it really did feel like the Rani was brought straight back from the old series. It was pretty cool to watch as a fan of the classics. Millie Gibson also delivered a great performance throughout, especially in The Reality War. I hope to see her in other, better things in the future.

I have nothing else positive to say about this. This finale, this season, this entire run, is uninspired, underwritten, and woefully overproduced. Doctor Who functions well within certain limitations, and this entire run of the show so far has proven to be nothing more than just self-indulgent nostalgia-bait with hardly any real substance.

YOU KNOW YOU WANNA TASTE OF THE MILKSHAKE MAN

Source?

You're not being a very good goy anon

What happened to Russell T. Davies? Seriously, what the fuck happened?

He was let off the leash.

Changes the Sonic because it looks like a gun

Saves the universe with a gun

RTD you absolute mad lad never change

It was pretty cool to watch as a fan of the classics.

Bull fucking shit.
They killed Omega.

Forgive me, Rabbi.

I think he just means that specific performance

what is a costa

It's Spanish for coast.

Good night, Who. I will be back to shitposting tomorrow :)

Remember when RTD said Hitler would have been a good Doctor

So that's why Fifteen has a moustache.

Are you my mummy?

When did he say that?

Doctor Who (2023) Season 2 Tier List

S - AS IF!

A - Lux

B - The Well, Lucky Day

C - The Story & The Engine, Wish World/The Reality War

BACK INTO HELL - The Interstellar Song Contest, The Robot Revolution

Final notes: With all the money that is (or, apparently now, was) going into the show, it's not at all surprising that there are too many cooks in this particular kitchen. Despite RTD being the showrunner again alongside his longtime partners Phil Collinson and Julie Gardner, this short, painful season is plagued with thin characters, nonsensical plots, yet earnest performances from talented actors that should be doing anything else but whatever the hell this is.

I seriously did not enjoy watching most of these, but it's been nice to find time to do this again. I'll try to finish up where I left off at Series 8 sometime soon. This time, I'll be watching the show with my kid who was just born. :) Till then.

There are people on GB defending the finale and are convinced the show is coming back with Billie as the Doctor

I would love to know what combo of drugs these people take to achieve such enthusiastic stupidity.

Gallifrey Base

How does one even find themselves in this situation?

River Song but she's probably been brutally walled by now

She apparently looks the same, judging by Karen Gillan's Instagram couple of years back.

Jenna would never say such vile racist, homophobic and transphobic things.

unfortunately that video seems to be lost media now

Probably because it didn't happen.

I just heard her do it though, and she sounded sexy as hell

Okay yeah multiple news outlets just collectively decided to make it up then

multiple news outlets just collectively decided to make it up then

Have you ever seen the 2009 documentary Starsuckers?

multiple news outlets just collectively decided to make it up then

have you ever heard of the holocaust?

how do i make these funny voices.

I just did a search and only found the Daily Star article you linked as well as an article on Doctor Who News.
The Daily Star is the lowest of all the UK tabloids. They literally made up an entire interview with Dwayne Johnson once, making up a random off-the-cuff statement is nothing to them.

corbyn bad

boris bad

so who the hell did murdoch want

The Mirror isn't owned by Murdoch, they've always been a Labour paper

they've always been a Labour paper

Unless the Labour Party is going through a left-wing phase

rtd makes rose a bog standard love interest for 2 years then gives her a quick send-off at the end of his tenure

huge mainstream audience loves her, then moves on

moffat spends 3 years straight making the doctor and entire universe obsess over clara

small cabal of waifufags, coomers and autists spend the next 10 years obsessing over her still

rtd brings billie piper back in unspecified role after 15 years

waifufags, coomers and autists become apoplectic with rage

So do it, you coward.

How to escape? It just struck me: the Doctor has a sonic screwdriver and Miss Foster’s sonic pen. What happens when you hold two sonic devices together? I’ll tell you what. You get wibbly-wobbly vibrations and guards clutch their ears for long enough to enable you to escape! That’s what happens, because I say so. I hate using the sonic screwdriver as a solution, but that’s what comes of making this an action-adventure series with a hero who doesn’t carry a gun. Small price to pay.

I hate how self-important the show has been since Moffat and it's only getting worse. I hate the fairytale/myth bullshit story lines.
Why is my sci-fi show about gay niggers, trannies, and magic?

They should bring back Jodie. Something for the dads.

I'm bad at writing so I just make private stuff, but I've shown you the way
there's a simple reason for that anon

I think Whittaker looks pretty hot, managed to get away from the wall unlike most other british women that hit it starting around 30 (shes 42)

Jodie Whittaker and Billie Piper are the same age? I would not have guessed that.
