  • The new season of Doctor Who is shaping up to be a ratings disaster, and Ncuti Gatwa is sad about it. Elsewhere, showrunner RTD sings the praises of Disney. Is Mickey's magic enough to conjure up some better ratings going forward... and a third series? Or has the TARDIS finally run out of gas after 60 years?

      Theyre all massive Narcissists, hence the obsession with looks/skin colour etc. narcs will never admit they’re wrong and also can’t relate to regular human experiences/emotions which is why so much of modern media has unrepeatable characters. Because they don’t have the capacity to write about things they’ve never experienced.
      Gaslighting (as seen here in blaming the fans) is a narcissist’s favourite trick.

      Oddly Matt Lucas was a companion. Odd they didn't have him do it as Daffyd Thomas

      Don't mind the gay doctor but , just as original star wars ,miss the real diversity on this show: the practical and CGI sentient alien species

    It's not a 'win' when those in control of the show are shoving 'inclusion' into everyone's faces and making them absolutely sick of it. That's how you end up LOSING.

    It’s their own fault. Imagine watching the 2005th Doctor Who and discovering the character, watching him evolve; only to see them undo everything about him.

    They can crocodile tears all they want. They told everyone; fans, supporters, haters, consumers and 'current year audience' they are wrong, bigots, -ists and -phobes They reap what they have sown as their identity.

    Jake Harkness was a good character who was gay, but that wasn't all he was. He was a good character first, played by an extremely charismatic actor, who was interesting before we found his sexuality. That's how this should be done. This new doctor isn't interesting, and his whole personality is that he's gay.

    • @Senkoau

      That's not entirely fair. Some of his personality is that he's black I'm sure

      Isnt Harkness Pansexual? I mean, he basically would get laid with whatever he deemed attractive to his eyes, provided it is an adult of its species.

      Captain Jack wasn't gay he was bisexual (or even omni-sexual, he'd screw anything). But you're right that he was an interesting character who had a very open & progressive opinion about acceptable sexual partners. His sexual adventures were just a side story that you glimpsed every now and then, they weren't the only thing he had to talk about.

    You know, the more i see all these issues, the more i realise how small this demographic truly is. In fact, it isn't just small, but likely is that part of it doesn't even want anything to do with the attempts at ideas that these people in the media are trying to push for, it just doesn't benefit them in the way the media believe it does.
    In the end a lot of this has just made the rejection way worst, i doubt it has benefited at all any of the people they are supposedly supporting and representing.

    My question is how can Disney+ "hide" the view numbers if they are going to sell ads. Advertisers are going to demand numbers.

    It’s one thing to have a diverse cast. It’s another thing to be preachy about new era ways of thinking as if they’re fact, another thing to be condescending about it, and another thing to chase after a new audience by changing everything at the expense of the one audience you’ve had the whole time.
    These people don’t think and they also can’t see patterns for some reason

    I never watched Dr. Who, but it's always sad to see a franchise hijacked by activists.
    It's like they are confessing nobody would watch their "message" otherwise.
    They have to insert it were it does not belong. And it shows.

    I have been watching since the 80's. I had a toy store and officially sold the Character Options toys of Tennant and Matt Smith which I couldn't keep in stock. Then it tanked and the stuff can't be given away. I don't see or hear anyone care about new Who. They attacked their fans, and went obnoxiously woke. Then cry no one is left.
