Dr Who Dying a Slow, Painful (Woke) Death

As a kid, I loved Doctor Who, the British science fiction TV series broadcast by the BBC. As a bit of a nerd myself, Doctor Who felt a bit like a haven for the nerdy created by science geeks with authentic quirks and creativity. It was both funny at times, as well as a little bit scary, but ultimately, it was entertaining. The original writers’ genuine weirdness, wit, and sci-fi creativity have in many people’s opinion, been replaced by hollow gloss, focus-group keywords, forced inclusiveness and political correctness, which come off as disingenuous, reducing once rich characters to meagre stereotypes distracting from what could be, and should be, compelling storytelling.
The Doctors I most remember were Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, and Sylvester McCoy, probably just because they were around when I was growing up. I also have some memory of the earlier Doctors, I guess because they probably showed a lot of reruns on TV.
Doctor Who took a bit of a hiatus in the early 1990s, but there was a Doctor Who television movie in 1996, which I never watched, I think I was too busy with high school.
But then in 2005, there was a revival of sorts with four more doctors taking on the role. I only ever watched a couple of episodes - I guess I had grown out of it a bit - but my friends and colleagues who were keen Whovians, generally liked this era of Doctor Who. I believe these four Doctors were typically highly regarded among fans of the show.
But of course, all good things must come to an end. In 2017, the BBC noticed something a little bit unusual about the casting of these Doctors over the last 36 seasons or so, and I think you can guess what… They were all men! This clear favouritism and inequity couldn’t be allowed to go on any longer! The BBC correctly pointed out, “Ladies can be Doctors too”, don’t you know?
So this brings us to our thirteenth Doctor, Jodie Whittaker, who starred in three seasons and a few specials between 2018 and 2022. From what I’ve heard, she’s a fine actor, but there was obviously some backlash casting a female Doctor Who.
According to the ratings database, IMDb, of the 13 series since the 2005 revival, the three lowest ranked seasons were the three Jodie Whittaker seasons.
It was towards the end of Jodie Whittaker’s stint as the Doctor that the BBC signed a deal with Disney meaning all new seasons of the show will stream exclusively on Disney+ outside the UK and Ireland ending the 50-year partnership between the BBC and the public broadcaster in Australia, the ABC. This means Whovians outside of the UK would have to fork out a subscription fee to watch the show from 2023 onwards.
The tenth Doctor, David Tennant, reprised the role and became the fourteenth Doctor in 2023 starring in three specials to celebrate the program’s 60th anniversary with disability, sexuality, and gender all covered.
The character of Davros, a major enemy of the Doctor, used to be wheelchair bound in the original series, albeit, a very futuristic looking wheelchair, but in the most recent incarnation, he is able-bodied. But why? Executive producer Russell T. Davies, who describes himself as “absolutely happily left wing”, said it was to avoid contributing to harmful tropes of disabled villains in media.
But this year being the year of super-diversity and uber-inclusion. the pièce de résistance, as I kind of hinted at the start, is the next incarnation of the Doctor who turns out to be a different ethnicity, and perhaps, a different sexuality, with Rwandan-Scottish queer actor (his words, not mine), Ncuti Gatwa, taking on the role of the fifteenth Doctor. Look, I’m sure he’s a good actor, but is this what Doctor Who fans want, or is this what Disney and the BBC want? I don’t know. The series contains a villain by the name of Maestro played by real-life American drag queen Jinkx Monsoon, who has been described by showrunner Russell T. Davies as “the Doctor’s most powerful enemy yet.” I know, it sounds like I’m making all this up, but I’m not.
Look, I think there’s only one of two ways this can go. Either I’m completely wrong, and actually hardcore fans, as well as new fans of the show, love the new super-diversity and uber-inclusion path that the Doctor is taking, or, this season sounds the death knell for Doctor Who as we know it. My feeling is that the once-loved Doctor has been ruined by the BBC’s self-righteous pandering and incessant moralising. Gone are the days where we could enjoy Doctor Who as an innocent adventure series. Now they desperately try to please everyone and avoid offence at all cost. Its preachy woke agenda is just resulting in losing viewers and credibility in the process. Unless something drastically changes, Doctor Who is destined for the same fate as other Disneyfied projects - forgotten and axed. Rest in peace Doctor Who. You were once great, but the BBC has utterly destroyed you.

    You are very likely no longer the target audience. The directive from BBC and Disney was to attract a younger audience. 30-under viewership is higher than it's ever been. You might also want to stop establishing opinions based on overnight BBC viewership since that doesn't take into account BBCiplayer or Disney+ viewership. It also doesn't take into account that the majority of viewers, including myself, do not watch the show on the day of its release, which is why people who post this kind of garbage tend ignore the numbers over a seven-day span because it doesn't fit their narrative.

    Do you have any comprehension of how often Who has "died" according to people like you? The show that just celebrated it's 60th anniversary has been pronounced dead more times than the Doctor has had incarnations. It died when Hartnell left. It died when Troughton left It died when Tom Baker left - there will never be another Dr as good as him It died when Michael Grade moved it out of the Saturday spot. It died when Michael Grade cancelled the show. It died when Eccleston left. It died when RTD brought in his "gay agenda". It died when David Tennant left - - there will never be another Dr as good as him It died when RTD left and Moffat took over It died when Moffat left and Chibnall took over It died when a WOMAN dared become the Doctor It died when a BLACK WOMAN dared become the Doctor It died when Timeless Child RUINED THE LORE FOREVER It died when a Trans person was cast It died when Tennant (father of a Transchild himself) and Tate appeared in a story defending Trans people It died when Disney got involved And now it's dying/dead because there's a Black Gay Doctor. The Doctor doesn't die; they regenerate, as does the show. See you back here again in 20 years for the 80th. Maybe you'll be wiser then.

    Another excellent commentary, albeit a bit of a shift from your usual fare. Your comments about the BBC are very relevant, unfortunately they probably also apply to our ABC to a slightly lesser degree. It's a little different but it's interesting to note that they were both very early adopters of the TNI. In fact the BBC is where it began as far as I'm aware.

    I'm not sure who thinks that Jodie Whittaker is a good actor. I first came across her in the brilliant British crime series Broadchurch, with the lead actors being David Tennant (coincidently) and Olivia Coleman. There were many other fine actors in the series. But, although Jodie Whittaker had major role in the series, she had all the appeal of a wet sock. As an actress she is just plain bland.

This is also evident by the actors who state " go and touch grass" or "this is not for you" if you don't go along with the dysphoric derangement in society.

    This new Series 1 may lay the groundwork for the show's cancelation... but by shooting Series 1 & 2 back-to-back, a 2nd Series is pretty much guaranteed at this point. It's already been pretty much in the can (if it's not already there). And that's kind of the problem. Series 2 was written and produced without any feedback on Series 1. That means any course correction likely won't happen until Series 3. IMHO, if the viewers keep tuning out through Series 2... the chances of Disney bailing on any addition series goes up... as does the chances that the series will be cancelled. And RTD claims he's already working on material for Series 3... so that might complicate any need for a course correction too.

Susan opens the Tardis heart when he dies, The Dr’s energy merges with the Tardis, Susan regenerates into Jodie and Susan continues on. The Dr can even pop up as a hologram inside the Tardis to help Susan.

I'll be willing to bet that nobody equated Wheelchair users to the evil of Davros, all except these idiots, it goes a long way to seeing how their minds work, they are actually actively looking for these things in the most innocent places. I do hope that this is the end, because I shudder at the thought of what they will do next when this new Dr leaves after his one and only series.

    I didn't have any issues with Jodi Whittaker as the Doctor, however, the writing for her 3 seasons was atrocious. Had she been given better scripts she could have become a fan favourite, but the writers made the stories too woke, preachy, and flat, which caused a lot of fans to leave. Now we have Ncuti Gatwa and RTD throwing their sexual lifestyle (LGBTQ???) in the viewers faces every week. Is it any wonder that even more viewers have tuned out? IMHO, Dr. Who started dying about half way through Capaldi's last season.

    I think one reason for going off into identity politics is that the showrunners have run out of ideas and are doing anything they can just to garner attention. I hardly even want to give them that attention by discussing it anymore. Historically, Doctor Who has gone through slumps. Not that many people fondly remember the Colin Baker period. IMO, the show needs to go back into mothballs. It can wait for another reboot in the future. At present, it's like a band that hasn't made a good album in a while doing stunts for publicity.

    Honestly, I always wonder why the people running the franchise can't leave a well running series concept untouched and, if they want to focus on diversity, inclusion, using new pronouns etc., then create a spin-off, e. g. calling it "Dr. Who Mysteries" or something like that, while the old series could still go on the way it always did. This way, the old fanbase could still enjoy the original show while other kind of viewers can watch the spin-off with all changes the producers can ever dream of. But no, they prefer to change a once popular franchise that many people like into a totally different show that nobody likes (beside themselfs). So it happened to Star Wars, Star Trek and even now to Dr. Who, and I bet they will blame the audience again for not accepting this new strategy. In other words: Even the Daleks would wonder how they "exterminated" the Dr. Who show. Pity.
