They say it isn't for you. It fails. They say you're to blame for the failure because you didn't see it. These are not sane people.
They are Iėftists. They’re not sane by default, and there’s no feasible way to actually peacefully coexist with people who thrive in destroying absolutely everything.
I'm firmly convinced some in Hollyweird are sociopaths, or at least they hardly know how to deal with normal humans beyond southern Cali.
Not only that, but the opposite argument would then have to be most media content is consumed by straight white males. And they are deliberately making content that will fail in the marketplace.
@@charlesws7825 Absolutely.
This is not a rational worldview, they are solely guided by their contempt. What reasons they use to justify said contempt isn’t the point.
"...Doctor Who was never made just for you"
You're right, it was made for everyone to enjoy, which doesn't mean alienating your primary audience.
When the initially show aired, SWM were 100% it's target audience though, lol. It was made for everyone, like u said, but the target audience was SWM.
@@30.06onaGrassyKnoll more for families to enjoy tbh
It wasn't made to make sense or to entertain anybody, too.
@@jeepercreep12 mostly straight white men have families who watch other white people tv shows based on super nerdy premise.
If you're alienated by the presence of minorities, that's on you. 😄
It's OK straight white men we still got Snarky Jay. We'll be fine.
FACTS🤣
They can keep Tyler Perry and RuPaul
We good🤣
The fact any man period would have a problem with Jay is stupid. They should be kicked out of our sex.
She's so based 🫶🏻
A fine retort, sir!
*It’s okay Men of Culture, we still got Snarky Jay.
Fixed it for ya 😊
The original article didn’t even include the ‘just’. It was just ‘Dr Who was never made for straight white men’. This has been screenshot a few times in the last 2-3 days. They went and revised it!
They're self aware ENOUGH, then.
@@charlesws7825 Brilliant! Love it 😆
"Dr Who was never made for straight white men"
Actually Doctor Who was originally made for straight white children.
Can confirm
IF that is true then that means it was stupid. Tho I was confused why she was saying the title was saying it's not for you while showing it says "just for you" not what she is arguing.
This time in human history of big companies, Hollywood, game companies, the media, etc hating their own customers is fascinating.
It's downright surreal is what it is. The level of disconnect is bizarre.
Isn't it obvious? ACTIVISTS have taken jobs of power at all these Hollywood companies. Since they don't care about profits or fans they Greenlight propaganda films and content created by their "allies" even if it's pure garbage.
@@pittland44 It is. I wonder if they realize they'll run out of money without customers?
The actual showrunner said this is "a show that everyone can watch." It's almost like you assumed this article was written by someone making the show because you went in with a pre-set narrative and you're working backwards from your conclusion. 😄
@@adamdavis1648sorry I can’t. I don’t “see myself” in a black man so therefore not everyone can watch. Nor do I see myself as a gay female either or a man hating female so I won’t watch those either. So no. It’s not for everyone. Even though I had no issues watching it before all these “interesting” and “artful” decisions to spice it up a bit with cultural wokeness. I mean it’s not like they were handed a DEI DEMAND list or anything prior to making the new shows…oh wait you mean they did?
Tell me Adam how much guilt do you feel over the past that you have to try so hard to advocate for this bullshit? I mean unless you’re black which explains everything. But being a middle aged white man living in a liberal world when you’re just a liberal girl must be tough.
You know something these franchises didn’t become beloved and so huge because they were mitigating it down to one sort. Do you mean to tell me no female, no black person, no gay person ever watched or was/is a fan of Dr Who Marvel Star Wars prior when they were mainly white straight men dominated? I’ll tell you something. The OT Star Wars will ALWAYS be cherished and held in the hearts and minds of people probably for eternity. The Acolyte will not. There’s a reason why cable tv will replay movies from the 80s and 90s over and over and over till the end of time and not the bullshit that is spewed out and wretched all over your lap for social diversity hire cred. Do you know why? I bet you do. Now be a good girl, out on your apron fix your hair and get back in the fucking kitchen where you belong so we don’t have to see your crying face again. And by the way no gay person or black person or female for that matter will ever give a FUCK how hard you fought for them. They also probably think you’re an idiot.
"It's not for you!"
But if I don't watch it, I'm suddenly labeled a bigot! Make up your mind!
Shhh! You'll be called intolerant for pointing that out! 😉
A birthday cake isn’t for you, it’s for everyone. It’s a shared thing. Not your personal thing. Do you get the difference? If you don’t watch a show about a British alien who travels in a phone box because they are a women or black, yes, you are a bigot. If you comment about it or make videos when you haven’t seen an episode or know the history of queerness in doctor who, then that is sus. Makes it seem like you’re annoyed about something else and are projecting negativity onto the world because you haven’t dealt with your personal issues.
You’re being called a bigot by a man who defends PDfiles, so don’t take it seriously!
It’s blowing my mind how many people keep reading and reacting to the headline like it says “it was never for you” when you all can see clear as day that it says “It was never JUST for you”
@@JermaineEvent Lmao silly black liberal
I am a straight white man and I think you are adorable Snarky,Also I am tired of Hollywood and especially Disney going out of their way to insult me and people like me when they don't even know me!
I happen to be a straight man and you know what? I welcomed the fact in Buffy The Vampire Slayer Whedon decided to make Willow a lesbian because it made the show even better.
@@gloriathomas3245 If it fits the story its fine. To insert your propaganda/narrative into a story where it doesn't belong is insertion of ideologies over reality. Even fiction needs to be believable. Dr Who was never gay and he has never been anything but a white brit...until they inserted ideologies into the story line. If Black panther was white it would not fit the story line. Custodes are not female. follow the lore, honor the source material and the fans or make your own IP and they have...and then it fails and they blame the fans. Thus they needed to hijack popular IPS and insert ideologies and then it fails...again.
You had to add the ‘white’ in there.
Nobody cares
I'm a straight white man and think that you're awesome, Snarky Jay! Thanks for sticking up for us as a gender/race!
Lmao no need to suck up bro
Sticking up for any gender is attacking the other one. There is only one human race.
@@goodburger1114 She's got her market segment pegged. I mean Identified...
Awesome, I was going to say the same thing 😂
@@goodburger1114 Thank you for proving the point of this video. Going after a SWM for making a comment.
They do that over and over again. Hijack a beloved movie/tv franchise, turn it into woke propaganda, say it wasn't for you, then cry foul when nobody wants to watch it. It's literally the definition of insanity.
Not a definition, not literal, not insanity. Just stupidity.
Stop saying "woke" when it is "pandering" used as a marketing tool.
I agree It’s pure stupidity
If you feel a movie/TV franchise has been "hijacked" or "turn[ed] into woke propaganda" because they added a character who isn't a cishet white man, that says more about you than it does about the movie or show or the people making it.
@@adamdavis1648 It's not about what I feel, it's simple fact that happens over and over again, whether you want to see it or not. The fact that every beloved franchise is being hijacked by woke activists, the fact that they gender swap, race swap, force diversity here, force LGBT representation there, gender shame men, revise history, etc etc. Movies/TVs are no longer an escapism or telling good stories, instead they're about identity politics and preaching bad ideology: communism good capitalism bad, white bad poc good, men bad women good, etc. And most people are sick of it.
The old Tom Baker episodes of Doctor Who from the 70s are really worth watching, Snarky Jay; they're brilliantly written, acted, and produced, and Tom Baker is fantastically entertaining and charismatic in the lead role.
Baker was my favorite Doctor.
Yes I'm sure she would like the old episodes they had great writing and characters.
I would say the peak was season 7 to season 14. (3rd and 4th doctors).
@@brett7773 i like the Patrick Troughton era, too.
He’s my Doctor, too. I LOVED the Tom Baker era.
When I'm blamed for the failure of a shit company's propagandistic garbage, I will excitedly wear that as a badge of honor. You're telling me I had an impact on squashing the reach of your cult without even doing anything?? Awesome!
Hear-hear! 😁
They can never take away the classic content. We have enough to watch and never even need to think about the modern stuff
"To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize"
Yes one example is Kim Yong Un
@@kirdot2011Others include Brandon, Kamel-toe, Dylan, The View, and all the celebs and powers that be who lean in a certain political direction.
Ahhhh smole hatz eh
Sure, "not allowed to," which is why this video has been taken down and people complaining about Dr. Who are being dragged away in handcuffs. Oh wait, that's not happening at all. 😅
Jews…
Oh dear. Apparently I've been watching a programme not made for me since 1970.
As a straight Black Man I just wanna say "Damn Snarky is fine!"....
As a straight white guy who's thrown under the bus by the *elite* whites in charge of politics and media, I say HELL yes!
I agree 👍
Certified SIIIIIIIIMMMPP!!!
They want us all Zesty or gone. Black men have been erased as well from MSM unless there a YASSSSSSSS loyalist.
@@joebidenconfused Thinking attractive women are attractive is simping now?
It’s funny because anytime a media company argues that something wasn’t “for you” it’s almost like they’re admitting that they produced a piece of content as a way to pander to specific group.
You mean the "Kennedy method"?
And then it fails and they call us racists cuz we didn't buy in on their dribble😀
Is the word "just" in the article's title invisible to everyone besides me? 😄
@@benrent6625 No, they call you racists because you throw a tantrum about "wokeness" every time a franchise adds a character who isn't white.
I totally admire you for the courage in calling this behaviour out. It just has to stop.
Straight, white, Gen X man here. Love your videos. You have just the right amount of snark to be offered an honorary f'n Gen X membership card. F the critics. Keep up the good work!
I'll probably never watch "Doctor Who" again. It used to be awesome, but was ruined by the addition of Jodie Whitaker. I'll never go back.
Whitaker was fine. I think with competent writing, she could have been great.
Unfortunately, she didn't get competent writing. She got Chibnall'd.
I will, but just old ones.
It got damaged before that. When his companions started to ridicule the doctor. Or when that time lord general died and regenerated as a woman and went on an anti-male diatribe.
They were comfortable with saying, "this is not for you" because they were convinced that diverse audiences would buy something en masse, but that didn't happen, so they attack you for not watching something, contradicting their own narrative and admitting that you were the intended audience anyway
You make a good point. You’d think their viewing numbers would be up because they fully support the alphabet gang, so the alphabet gang would totally get behind watching the show. That hasn’t happened because the majority of alphabet gang simply don’t care about Doctor Who. They’re desperately trying to pull those viewers in, but it’s not working.
As a creative, all I can say is that if I want to make money, I need to make work that will sell. If my work doesn't sell, I don't go round blaming other people for my bad choices. I work out what I doing wrong and fix it, if I want to make some money and pay my bills.
You are implying that people at Disney are "creatives"! I don't see that. I see IP exploitation with few exceptions.
I totally agree. People cry because they get targeted by others who don't share their ideologies, only to end up targeting others who don't share their ideologies. It's an insane and ridiculous vicious cycle.

Happy Wednesday Jay!! Glad to hear your honest opinion.
I only just discovered this channel, but this was truly brilliant. Such an intelligent, informed, well-articulated breakdown of this nonsense that’s going on in the media.
😄😄😄😄😄😄
I never cared about Doctor Who before; I don't seee myself caring about it now.
One thing is certain: I haven't seen this much attention to Doctor Who since... ever. I can tell you that much.
As a long-time fan of the show and despite my love for it, I felt this article was unacceptable whether it was just for clickbait or activism. Nobody should talk about inclusivity and deny one of its primary audiences the right to feel included. That's gatekeeping of the worst kind.
I'm not part of the anti-woke brigade btw, mostly because not everything the show has offered can be described as a sign of a secret agenda and I feel everything is an excuse nowadays to perpetuate that narrative as I've seen that firsthand with Doctor Who a few times... like when the female Doctor became a thing and the internet exploded 5 seconds after the reveal. HOWEVER, I have seen little glimpses of this activism inside and outside the show which made me question the direction the show has taken as of late. It's not all bad, the reboot and the classics always had this avant-garde attitude towards social topics and the show does address some legitimate trans issues recently but some things have been quite nebulous, to say the least: From misrepresentation of disabled people to exaggerated remarks regarding the trans stuff that seem a bit patronizing, things have taken an unusual turn at times. This article, albeit not from the show itself, only helped to propagate the argument further.
And this might be one of the few new channels to Doctor Who that hasn't mentioned any of the previous series as being woke everywhere just to add further gas to the fire, so I have mad respect for that. A lot of new channels have talked about the previous series like some woke boogeyman without watching any of the material, and even if they did, they would probably say the same things about it because it requires being somewhat open-minded to this stuff (and that goes for anything related to the show).
Sorry about the long text, I thought I would give my own 2 cents.
I agree with you. I’ve been a Doctor Who fan for a while now, and I’ve watching the new episodes and while they are certainly a step up in quality from the Chibnall era, it does feel like they’ve yet to find their footing.
But the issue isn’t the themes or social commentary, it’s just BAD WRITING. The Chibnall era wasn’t bad because the Doctor was a woman, or because it tried to tackle social issues (many genre entertainment, science fiction in particular, has a long history of tackling social issues), it was bad because it was just BAD. The stories were bad, the writing was bad, the dialogue was bad, and the characterizations were bad. It was so utterly baffling to me how the same showrunner who did Broadchurch (which was fantastic AND started Jodie Whittaker) could fumble the ball so hard with Dr. Who.
That being said, now we have Russell T. Davies back at the helm, aka the guy who single handedly brought the show back from the dead in 2005, and so far… the show’s been decent. Seems like it’s still finding its footing like I said earlier, but still decent and a major step up from the Chibnall era.
That being said, this kind of “it’s not for you rhetoric” displayed in that article certainly ain’t gonna help them AT ALL. So if the creative team and actors have any good sense they’ll try to avoid drama as much as possible.
@@willy_b_coyote Yes, I think the storytelling beats have improved since the Chibnall era, there's more momentum and meat behind the pacing and presentation, but the stories have more holes in their logic than ever. In the special, RTD had managed to rewrite the Kaleds for a quick joke, made Davros even more eccentric than he was in Genesis to the point of looking like a satire of the character, and misrepresented disabled people by saying Davros was a bad disabled stereotype and changing that stereotype with another one that is suddenly okay. I don't mind a pre-Genesis Davros (there's actually a couple of storylines that I think could be interesting), but the only way I see old Davros returning under RTD is through flashbacks. However, what he said and made with the character was something that not even "Destiny of the Daleks" dared to do imo, and that was a story where Davros was literally a wobbly old man gathering dust and cobwebs waiting for the Daleks to rescue him.
And in only 6 episodes, he completely obliterated the logic behind Donna's meta-crisis which I felt was perfectly fine in S4, he's doing a remake of all his S1 tropes beat by beat with slight changes (and I can somewhat guess some of the beats of the season by tune), the 60th had almost no legacy stuff despite being entertaining and there's stuff about the logic of the first few episodes in the new season which made very little sense like the Doctor surviving a vacuum pull into outer space and saving a rabid menace without a proper solution for it or knowing how to defeat the villain of the second episode by knowing a random melody by heart (I actually liked the twist though). The latter episode also had a weird time paradox which can be more or less explained by Maestro's influence (but its implications are still weird though). The episodes are pretty entertaining and have plenty of interesting ideas behind them, but there's basic stuff like that that doesn't add up.
With Chibnall, I felt the show was being more experimental and trying new things to see if something would stick. He was picked by Moffat at the last hour, but he was very reluctant to join in. In some ways, he's quite the opposite of RTD: What one does in excess the other doesn't, and vice versa. I think the problem with Chibnall is not bad writing altogether (though he had plenty of bumpy situations, like moments of stiff dialog, character motivations that didn't amount much to anything, and many stories that ultimately feel very self-contained), and I agree with you, it's not social issues or the fact the Doctor was a woman (even though that was a criticism for many).
I think it's more like the curse of over-experimentation - Some fans wanted Chibnall to go back to the classics by removing the seasonal arc. But to appease the BBC execs, he changed too much in his first season and when that didn't resonate with the audience because it stripped away everything that felt familiar and functional, he tried to do more familiar stuff which sort of worked until he decided to dive deep into the lore stuff... that is a basic Doctor Who trap if you're trying to reboot the show and make it more mainstream. And when that exploded the wrong way, he felt pressured to make a bold final season just to answer a few things. In doing so he made people even more confused about the lore, but he did leave a few interesting hints for the future. Thankfully, RTD already cleaned up the Timeless Child incident with a fun twist.
In a way, it reminds me of how people hated 80's Doctor Who, but I actually learned to enjoy it. It was also very experimental, melodramatic, and crazy, which was quite different from your typical Doctor Who stuff back then. It was doing more mature and darker stuff and didn't shy away from going all in on the crazy factor. I don't think it was as bad as people made it out to be. I actually love the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Doctor eras, even with their shortcomings (I actually had a harder time with the fifth Doctor era than the rest, but it had a very wholesome and psychedelic vibe).
Greetings from Croatia !"!!!
Thanks Jay for the kind words. Take care.
SNARKYJAY - you are a very bright person help me out here.
I used to shop at a local store - not every week but more than 10 times year.
3 months ago when I entered the store the owner said this store & its products are not intended for you - please don’t come back here to shop.
I complied with his request and never returned.
Last month that shop went out of business.
This morning the store owner is on my front lawn screaming that its MY fault he went out of business?
HOW IS IT MY FAULT???
It's probably closed down now.
I think we’re missing a good deal of information here. That being said, based on your description of the scenario, the only reason you could have had much of anything to do with the store going out of business is if you happened to be their only customer.
@@jasonmoquin LOL. LOL >
Wow what an awesome made up story 😂😂😂
@@goodburger1114 👌
I've been a Doctor Who for 40 years. Right here in New Orleans Louisiana. I was a fan when you had to watch episodes wherever and however you could see them. My favorite Doctor was Jon Pertwee. I got to see most of Those later as a Fan, because we mostly started getting airings of the series with Baker and Davidson. When I did get to watch the Pertwee episodes on video tape. It was the magical color Rotating Science Fiction show. It was B/W no wait it was Color, nope definitely B/W. In just a single episode. I never saw Troughton before the 3 Doctors, after I had already seen the 5 Doctors.
But, as a kid with a very bad child hood of massive peer Abuse and Bullying. I had Doctor Who. It was always welcoming and friendly to everyone. It felt like a show meant for everyone.
I followed through the Dark Ages, even enjoyed the Mcgann movie. And then came in again 2005. Etc.
The Doctor NEVER failed me. Until 2 days ago.
That show has never made me feel so unwanted and so hated as this show did.
The Doctor Failed me.
I'm done with all of it now. Every with the Exception of Tom Baker (who is simply magical) and Matt Smith and the Ponds. They all get a pass.
The rest of it I gave it all up. Because, it all lead to THIS Atrocity!
So, no, it does not appeal to all Americans, far from it. It's certainly not shy in Rejecting Straight, White, Men.
Oh and one other thing. On behalf of Actual Straight, White, GENTLEMEN.
It bothers me that you have encountered so many abusive pigs.
You are funny, beautiful, and you seem like a very sweet person.
You should ALWAYS be spoken to correctly.
Incredible thought-piece and comment. What are your Thoughts on David Tennant and also William Hartnell?
@@Fresh4life Hartnell will always be Be Special, because he had the hardest job of any of them. He originated the role, despite a Whole lot of people lately trying to tell us his Doctor wasn't the first because you know, Straight, White, Male of the 60s. And of course, painting his Doctor as an, old, Misogynistic pig. As opposed to any version of the first Doctor... EVER.
Yes, the 1st Doctor had dark, alien, moments. But, he never treated Barbara like she should automatically make everyone Tea when it came time. And Barbara would never And Never would have put up with that crap from he or Ian.
As for Tennant. I liked him as 10, but I much preferred Smith. I never had the idea that he was the end all he all of Doctors like other people felt he was. I like Eccelston and even John Barrowman (The Doctor Role in Torchwood ie Captain Jack) more than him.
I never liked Catherine Tate. I did Really Really Like Martha. But, they mostly wasted Fremma in the role. But, Tennant gets Accolades for Family of Blood and everything he has done outside of Doctor Who.
As 14. No.
And Jodie. Ah Jodie. Very attractive (basically to me what Tennant and Smith were to so many women), a good actress, and so much potentially. Told to never ever research the part or character prior to her. And that weird nose thing she did. But, the true ENEMY of her time on the show wasn't her it was CHIBNAL.
As for Ncuti. I was rooting for him, I really was. I thought he was the best part of all 3 of those awful 60th Specials. I even liked him in his true introductory story in that Christmas special. As an actress Gibson might not be... You know... Good, but she is easy on the eyes.
Then after watching, The Mass Insanity that was the last 2 episodes. I took Ncuti up on his advice, along with Gorilla Monsoon and stopped watching. Good luck to them replacing my loyalty as a fan.
Oh and what is UP with that TV remote they are calling a Sonic Screw Driver???
@@pocketmego-Ray Cannot thank you enough for your in depth analysis and response. I very much appreciate you and your time. I couldn’t agree more with almost everything you’ve shared and stated/relayed along here.

Thank you so much again for your timely response and thorough and thought provoking analysis as well too.

Nothing is made for me, it's made for the widest audience in general. Now however, they want nothing to be made for me, and that is the problem.

Plenty of diversity in programming. I have no interest in the drag race programming, though there are certainly many that do.
You give me hope for the future!
Another amazing video Snarkyjay ❤❤😁😁.
You are the gift that keeps on giving
It's unfortunate but it's just where we are at as a society, these corporations feel that to admit failure shows weakness and that they don't know what they are doing, but its actually the opposite, to come out and say hey we completely screwed this project up and we promise we are going to do better moving forward would actually be more widely respected and accepted rather than blaming a certain demographic for its failure.
If it's not for me, why do I feel like I'm being blamed for not watching it.
Snarky great rant, you are a brilliant and charismatic. Thank you for speaking out against all that is wrong, these media manipulations are ridiculous.

Thank you little sister. I appreciate how well you articulated the misandry that permeates modern discourse. P.S. I am sorry crappy dudes have disrespected you. You are smart and amazing. You just got a new sub.
Well for the past 20 years Doctor who's been very diverse and has had characters of homosexuality. But for me the retconning of the Doctor Who history and Canon In his life has been the big problem with me.

You're a good kid, Snarks! I hope no one sees this video because you've crossed a line and have now become cancelable! 🤣😂
People who can't actually defend an idea always whine that supporters of the idea are being "canceled" when someone criticizes those people or that idea. It's like a pavlovian response and a substitute for a real argument. 😄
Well said. Oh, and as a SWM, i loved She Hulk the series, laughed so much during The Marvels (with joy), and am fine with the new Dr Who. I didn't enjoy the episodes of the doctor who when the doctor was a woman, but that has nothing to do with the actress (she is great)... the production just seemed to be lower quality than previously. Just found your channel recently, and I am enjoying your work as well.
I enjoyed The Marvels as well. Not sure what the hub-bub was. She-Hulk seem pretty on brand when comparing the show to the older comics.
Always good to hear a logical relevant commentary about those social views from a intelligent person
Weird how people are pointing to this article as an example of Hollywood being mad at its customers when as far as I can tell, it wasn’t written by anyone working on the show.
“You don’t know me!”

I believe our biggest problem in society is that we have been conditioned to look for differences instead of similarities.
Great video! Bravo 👏
Dr Show Canceled after the 1st Season
If the ratings are bad enough, he will regenerate again.
The thing I dont understand is that the very people in my age range, Gen X, that got to experience the awesome of 80s-90s cinema, TV, comics are the very same people that are destroying it. Where are the creative people at?
That's so far from the truth. There is someone telling them what to do, and these people do what tgey are told or don't do anything. If you pay attention, it's tge same writers, director's and producers doing everything, with one of five sets of owners. This isn't generation x doing it. In truth it's not any generation, it's the people with money and agendas, hiring who will do what they are told, even the president of the United States is owned and controlled.
If you want to know who js doing what, go down the rabbit hole kf who actually owns what. That will show you all you need to know.
What are the two nost dangerous and strong nations when it comes to war in the west? That's right America and the UK, who is the nation's being shown all of this? Bow follow the company's and see who they all owned by and what political figures and nations show up, and then finally, who has the money.
You will find the same names over and over.
All always see the same actors, the same companies, same thing over and over, we are being weakened, through media and what our children are being force fed.
As Gen X man I suggest, if you are a Doctor Who fan watch some of the classic Doctor Who stories from Tom Baker, Jon Pertwee, Peter Davidson, Colin Baker and Syvester McCoy! Or Patrick Troughton if you want the really old stuff!! You find this more interesting then what we have today!
It's not gen x, it's millennials doing the damage. The 25ish to 40yr olds.
Its people who know very little about the real world. Making movies games and tv for themselves and their wacko friends. Meanwhile you've got ceo's tanking billion dollar companies going along with the insanity.
The first 5 or 6 seasons of Doctor Who after it was brought back were very good. I'd recommend it
You nailed it. Your comments are insightful and accurate. I am a straight white male, and when I view a TV show or movie, I'm looking for quality content and an interesting story. When studios don't respect their core audience or the cannon of established IPs offensive.
I wonder why the focus is taking things predominantly consumed by straight white men and trying to change it to fit demographics that still don't pay to watch said content. It's like blaming men for the failure of the WNBA, when it's women who don't show up and support it. It's like they're saying we want you guys to spend your money on our content, but we're not going to include you in the content, and if we do, we're going to villainize you. But don't complain just keep paying us. Like imagine swapping race or gender or any of that and them getting away with it
Makes you wish we still had the female Doctor played by Jodie Whitker
Wow!!! … this was an excellent video. I could see you in the million followers pretty soon 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽.
Disparu talks about the doc from a British point of view....very interesting ,, worth checking out.great work by the way..keep being you , you are awesome!! Cheers!
Jay, let me start by saying that if you ever want to get into Doctor Who, start with the 2005 Christopher Eccelston season, but just watch the 1 and last 2 episodes of that season (it was new so their special effects were a bit cheap) and then watch the magic of the David Tennant, and Matt Smith seasons that followed. You won't regret it! One of the most memorable shows I've ever seen.
As for the topic at hand....As a straight black man, who is a big Doctor Who fan of the 2005 to Peter Capaldi era, who despises the Jody Whitaker and now Ncuiti Gatwa Doctor Who woke era's, I take offense that they only single out straight white men, when I'm a straight black man, and hates these new productions. And that is there problem. They think that anyone who complains on the internet about "wokeness" are all conservative white people, rather than their VERY diverse fanbase who just hates the terrible woke-ass changes they make as a whole.
Dr Who sucks forthe most part. Even the older series were eye rolling cringe. It would not surprise me the gayz want to steal the IP and twist it into a big mess.
Good to see your channel growing and you that are ignoring the hateful comments. That's the smart thing to do.
Great video, funny how things come to light when you treat every iteration of the human race as equal to each other than one being better than another.
Thank you Jay, you are right about "the hive mind" mentality of woke Hollywood and how they are trying to silence people who don't like / agree with the shows content and how they are ignoring the criticisms by saying... "They're just being sexist".
Really?
That's strange, people (many of whom were men) were totally supportive of The She Hulk comic book series. In fact, fans loved that she was a strong capable woman (wven when she wasn't She Hulk and was her alter-ego Lawyer Jessica Walters). All they had to do was fully the recipe that made the character a sucess and they would have a winner that they could have profitted from. I remember when bussiness was about giving the customers what they wanted aka "The customer is always right"...which leads to happy customers who become loyal patrons, which in turn equals more... $$$
(Just think of all the merch they could have sold).
Instead, they go against the formula and push woke politics on people and then blame them when they say... "We don't like it" ....Stop pushing your message and give us better stories and CGI.
Simple.
"The definition of Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
Anyway (assuming you're still reading), it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who sees the truth.
More people need to speak out against the woke agenda.
I really enjoy watching your videos (and have Subscribed to your channel).
Keep being Snarky. :)
I thank you for making this channel I appreciate it I'm a fan of your VIDEOS
Great video and you're awesome 👍🏾
Jay you have the power of on point analysis.
Snarky you gotta watch it from Eccelson's to Capaldi's Run. Matt Smith and David Tennant were brilliant.
Thank you for the even handed commentary on this divisive subject. There is a subset that are bent on making up/down and vice versa. I'm sure you get beat up on here quit a bit, so goes it when your opinionated on the web. Yet, when there are more and more people who say NO and come together, instead of apart, we can and will get past this. Snark on!
I think the problem is opinion pieces being allowed to be distributed under large names. Frankly, I don't want to read a newspaper for someone's opinion. Nowadays of social media and CZcams. I think those are better avenues for that. But along with that, we have people taking all these opinion pieces extremely seriously and forgetting to be objective and think critically.
Happy Wednesday Jay!! Crying shame... everyday we stray further from the Emperor
Just found your channel and totally agree with your take on this 👍
I love your honesty and how you can look at something that's fashionable and criticize it in a reasonable way that's not biased, prejudiced or hate fueled, but logic fuelled and thoughtful of humanity's direction. Wow.
Straight up you could be a Founding Member of what could become Starfleet. 👏
They skipped over a whole demographic when they came up with this Doctor. I'm a straight black man and honestly, I hope she has this kind of energy for us in the future.
It's a little confusing when you quote the original article headline (without the word "just") but show an image of their revised one.
Thank you. Well said. Nothing to add. You covered it well.
Thank you for saying this! Really!
So I actually know why the media companies do this, and why they think it's okay. I'll have to type it up later when I get home from work.
Snarky you should be the next doctor who!! Then I would definitely watch it
Your are 100% Correct. When I saw the thumbnail that was exactly my reaction.
Probably cause they already know the show isn't going to be anything special. So "Let's get people talking" whether it's good or bad publicity. Too many properties are following this and ultimately keep failing. When it fails, they will point fingers at the fans who they alienated. This will not only hurt the current project but also future projects as well. Self-sabotage
I'm still waiting for the article explaining that an IP isn't for a minority or gay community.
The entertainment and content companies are pressuring content creators to make the most flamboyant and controversial titles and thumbnails possible to get their click rate up or the companies will stop promoting their content or terminate them if they are employees. I subscribe to one tech content creator who has resorted to putting ladies in bikinis on his thumbnails after notifying all of subscribers that he had to do it just to meet his quota or some such thing.
It's kinda like the Titanic, we have much bigger problems in our society to try to come together and fix but we're too obsessed with superficial differences we have instead of the "hole(s)" in the ship...🤔
At this rate will this happen one day?
"Dr. WHO is on." "Who?"
I'm a straight white man and I think Ncuti Gatwa is a wonderful Doctor Who I just want good stories and not to be blamed if they're not
Agreed. The new stuff is wild and crazy, but it keeps me watching.
You are absolutely marvelous! From an SWG
I watched the first season on TV. At least 40 years ago by mistake. I still remember one scene in the forest. Terrifying. Still better than any DR after that. Also it was so desaturated. That we did not even know what colour was.
I find it interesting that there are a plethora of shows that have done very well, with a lot of diversity. The Fall of the House of Usher, House of the Dragon and Fallout, just to name a few of the top of my head. These are all well written shows with interesting characters, and are wildly successful. But the second a poorly written show bombs, company’s always blame straight, white men for its failure. I think it proves you can have media with all the diversity you want, just make sure it’s good!
Thank you for your video Snarly Jay.
Jay, I’m old enough that I watched the original series first episodes when they originally ran in Australia. I loved the modern Doctors so I was very interested to see what they would do with a female one. Sadly, the goal apparently wasn’t what they could do with her, but what they could do TO us. Throughout her first season I kept hoping that the writing would improve. It just got worse. Not sure who came up with the business plan at Disney to tell a large percentage of their potential subscribers that “this show isn’t for you”, but it wasn’t a great plan…
I wasn't even aware there was another Dr Who
As a character who famously regenerates, it can't be that often when the description on the casting call sheet says literally, "Anyone." It aint that deep. We should be more worried about the overacting.
Hey Jay! In Psychology, there's this concept of "Negativity Bias". Basically, we're all hard wired for "Good is nice and all but bad can kill you SO FREAKING PAY ATTENTION TO THE BAD STUFF!" Psychologists say it takes 7 compliments to offset the harm/damage/pain of one insult. Soooo...
"As A" straight, white male, I just wanted to say thanks for the content. I like your opinion, your wit, your humor, your presentation skills, and share a relatable perspective with you that doesn't feel like just bland pandering to an audience. Also, I should add that neither the greatest nor least of your admirable traits, in the interest of full disclosure: I also think you're pretty. I see the effort you put into your make-up and wardrobe and cosplay and the aesthetic isn't unappreciated.
Just wanted to take a minute to tell you that. It won't amount to much. It's not super simpy. Just a "Attaboy. High 5. Keep doin' you. I like it."
Disney doesn't have its hands full with Dr Who, they only have rights to feature it on Disney +, the BBC would never ever give full rights to Disney
also well said Jay, luckily that article from the METRO UK was deleted
No one on the Internet has swagger like Jay
Thank you, I have always loved the way you can get a subject and distil it to the facts. As a straight white male you are super gorgeous.
