Since Capaldi left i never felt that way again. since i've started watching i noticed it's weird only having a white male protagonist, i was so happy hearing about jodie coming in and thought "finally not a male doctor"... but i was expecting the show to continue beeing all crazy and stories conected and i having to really use my brain to undestand an episode. i wish the writers and directors could have continued the amazing story... but now it feels like i DONT have to use my brain to understand an episode... i love the fact that we finally had a female doctor and a black doctor now, i wish we keep having all kinds of people as the Doctor, because that is what the Doctor is. but i want good stories. they don't have to have a story beeing about gender equality to let people know about gender equality. i've learn so much watching doctor who, now it feels just like a repeat of what is happening in the world, episodes have no connection and story have huge holes in it... im sad for Jodie and Ncuti, both great people and great actors, but they got to be the Doctor when the writers are lazy...

The grief I feel for a show I’ve been loyal to for almost 20 years is awful. I’ve never been so angry at writers.

As everyone pours drinks to celebrate the Doctor silently drinks his and leaves the party while no one is looking (He didn't notice that Jo saw him).

None of the Tennant specials surpassed viewing figures for even the least-viewed Matt Smith episode, much less any of the prior David Tennant episodes. Disney dumped a TON of cash into this production and this was NOT what they wanted to see happen. Yes, this is a huge failure.

What else does this mean? Well, it means that merchandising isn't coming back. During the Jodie Whittaker era, almost all merchandising came to an abrupt halt. NO ONE WAS BUYING THE PRODUCT. During Eccleston through Matt Smith, merchandising was HUGE. You could get EVERYTHING, from toys, posters, mugs, t-shirts, comics, etc. At one point, Character Options was reporting sales of 30,000 sonic screwdrivers a day! Then came Capaldi, and merchandising sales slowed. During Jodie, they almost died completely. Toys that did come out sold in paltry numbers. Action figures wound up in deep discount bins and suppliers still cannot get rid of "Friends of the Thirteenth Doctor" action figure sets. Almost every US licensor of Doctor Who products stopped making new items (no more T-Shirts, mugs, standees, posters, etc). UK toy releases became very sporadic as well, most being exclusives through B&M. With numbers like these, the merchandise is NOT coming back, and if it does, it won't sell enough to merit full price for very long.

As an Indian, as a brown person, I want every "activist" and person who condone what doctor who has become to know ,I never needed the doctor to look like me or another POC or a woman to feel represented. The doctor was amazing because of his character, his stories ,he felt relatable because he was just another time lord who strived to be a good man, it was never about him being special but about being a good man and the lore change screwed it all up. The stories all took a downward trend after the female doctor but I guess the groundwork for that was laid when the master was made a woman. Instead of a brotherly bond and betrayal they messed up the relationship. Doctor who ended for me with capaldi's ww1 Christmas special which had brought me to tears. RIP doctor who, never did a doctor had to literally revert back to an older doctor to save the show and it still failed because of the atrocious dialogue and story.

When NewWho came on the screens in 2005 with Eccleston, I thought it was brilliant. Tennant too is brilliant & the stories were fresh, the CGI was fresh & I thought what could go wrong. When Smith took over it was starting to go over the top & then after Smith it got worse & worse. The 60th anniversary specials were rehashing old material as well as Tennant & Tate as fan service but what got me pissed off is that they had an actor of a different race playing Isaac Newton! Yes it's sci-fi/fantasy etc but if you're going to add a historical character, at least have him look the part! It's like getting Billie Piper to play Celie Harris Johnson in The Color Purple or Graham Norton to play Rubin 'Hurricane' Carter in The Hurricane. RTD has this panderverse where he has to pander to every minority, gender, race, object etc where they all have to be inclusive. With history, you cannot change the past, you cannot change what happened to slavery in the southern USA, convicts being sent to Australia, or the Indian sub-continent being under the British jackboot of colonialism. RTD needs to remember that he's writing & directing for an audience that differs in ages & they just want to see a decent Doctor Who episode. RTD is just pandering his own tastes into Doctor Who & it doesn't work. Chibnall was the same. RTD is now relying on old episodes he wrote & rehashing it into new ones. It's just pure lazy & pandering. Don't get me started on Disney either! Disney will send suggestive notes to RTD who will have to pander to Disney execs. What's next? Mickey Mouse playing Doctor Who!

When I go to watch Matt smith again, the old david Tennant episodes, the Baker and pertwee era or just any doctor who before 2017 I feel at peace, I feel comfort, I feel entertained and time well spent. Once the end credits roll, the world comes crashing down again, the knowledge that all that I have watched has been completely annihilated.

Yes I feel the same. I have run out of things to watch. And enjoy. Because I have seen all these things a million times. I love them, they are great. Doctor Who, Trek, Star Wars etc. But they are not making anything new from them, that is worth seeing and nothing new that is anywhere near as good as what they were years ago. And its sad as the potential is there, they just want to use them to lecture the audience now, and not entertain. So I no longer watch any of them . I watched the first two Tennant specials and they were that bad, that preachy and that much of an F. U. to older fans like me I could not bring myself to watch the last one The Giggle. I am actually glad I missed it. And what I saw for the Christmas Trailer looks like one of the worst episodes of Doctor Who I have ever seen. A mash up of Pirates of the Caribbean and the Hobbit. With the campest Doctor ever. He is even more camp than John Inman or Kenneth Williams. I cant possibly take it seriously, its like a parody, a mockery a comic pantomime. The fact its gone from 12 million plus viewers down to 4 million in ten years....two thirds of the audience are gone and its going to get worse. I would be embarrassed if someone called to visit me on Christmas Day and I was caught watching a Doctor Who as bad as this one looks....and everyone thought Whitaker and Chibnall were bad...how is it possible to make something worse than that???? But they look to have managed it....

This is the way doctor who ends This is the way doctor who ends This is the way doctor who ends Not with a bang but a whimper.

I started watching Doctor Who when the local PBS station aired the Tom Baker era in the 1980s. I was instantly hooked. I began collecting and reading the novelizations as well as catching every episode PBS showed. I even managed to get a hold of a bit of Doctor Who merch, even though it was rare here in the US back in the 1980s. I was excited when PBS started showing the Peter Davison episodes, but I lost interest during Colin Baker's troubled run. I regained interest with Sylvester McCoy's three seasons. PBS eventually aired all the Doctors up to that time, and I tried to watch them when I could. During that time, Jon Pertwee became (and, thanks to DVD, remains) a favorite of mine. I saw the movie with Paul McGann when it initially aired in 1996. I liked McGann's Doctor well enough (he was quite likeable), but not the story with which he got stuck. I was excited about the revival in 2005, and when I finally got Christopher Eccleston's season on DVD, I stayed up all night watched it in its entirety. I was blown away by both the well-written stories and Eccleston's fantastically deep performance (with loads of "emotional baggage" that gave his performance an edge). I was worried when Eccleston left so soon, but I needn't have. David Tennant and Matt Smith proved themselves to be fine Doctors in their own right (although the writing of their stories was uneven). In particular, I thought Matt Smith did an incredible job portraying a young-faced Doctor with an old soul. At times, his "mad man in a box" truly seemed like a centuries-old alien. I honestly believe "The Day of the Doctor" to be a high-water mark of the series as a whole. Sadly, I lost intertest after Matt Smith regenerated into Peter Capaldi. I just couldn't connect to Capaldi's Doctor. I found him unlikeable. One could say I let go back then, since I've yet to see all of Capaldi's episodes. I haven't watched a single episode featuring Jodie Whitaker (I've heard the writing is awful) or any of these recent specials with David Tennant. I had high hopes for the latter, but what I've seen here has dashed those hopes. When I was younger, and my best friend and I would play, I liked to play the Doctor. As a smart, geeky, bibliophilic boy (I might not be everyone's image of a manly "man's man", but I do identify as a male) with a penchant for science, the Doctor was MY hero. It was actually important to me to have a male role model who used his brains instead of his brawns, who solved problems by being incredibly clever. Sadly, it seems the current show-runners (especially Russell T. Davies) have done all in their power to destroy all that. With what they've done to the series, I've no longer any reason to watch it. Truthfully, they can have it! At least they can't take away my classic Doctor Who - I've an extensive collection of Doctor Who on DVD!

Peter Capaldi was the Valeyard on a redemption arc. The only problem is that neither he nor Steven Moffat realised it. The lack of self-awareness in Peter Capaldi's performance was infuriating and every time he got snippy with Clara Oswald, he was gaslighting and projecting onto her. For example "You can't see me" was infuriatingly hypocritical because the Doctor spent thousands of years ignoring the fact that Clara kept saving his ungrateful ass and now has the audacity to claim that SHE'S the problem. Both Capaldi and Moffat were completely oblivious to how bad that line made the Doctor look, like they had completely forgotten about Clara being all over his Time Stream in Name of the Doctor. If she doesn't see the Doctor in this pretentious, narcissistic sociopath, that's completely his own fault. Even with John Hurt, who refused to even call himself the Doctor, Clara had no doubt that he was a legitimate incarnation. Even during the one time where the Doctor's shitty behaviour towards Clara was justified, which was when she betrayed him in Dark Water, Peter Capaldi STILL had a smug and superior attitude about it. He came across as a man who WANTED Clara to betray him just to give him an excuse to pretend he was better than her. Snarling "cut out the whining" in her face was blatant gaslighting because Clara hadn't said anything that could be even vaguely interpreted as whining since they left the volcano. In fact, she let the Doctor have his tantrum without a single protest or complaint.

It’s not me standing in crap pants, it’s all of you wearing the wrong clean pants! (c) showrunner doktor who

Doctor Who died after Capaldi, his last words perfectly said it, "Doctor, I let you go". We can let him go and wonder into the night on the Tardis going off on all those endless adventures.

There is only 12 Doctors. Capaldi is the last. They can enjoy their fan fiction.

I got on the Dr Who hype with the 9th Doc and it was great. Till they announced the next doc was gonna be female. I feel like by the end of the of this fiasco I’m gonna start hating my own gender and turn into a misogynistic woman.

Russell T Davies ushered in a successful reboot of Doctor Who in 2005, partly by perfectly harnessing the nostalgia and respect of older fans, while subtlely updating the series to appeal to new viewers. His instincts in this regard have abandoned him in 2023, or maybe it's that he's had nearly 20 years of people telling him how well he handled it last time and it's blown his ego into the stratosphere to the point where he now thinks he can do no wrong. Watching Nucti Gutwa's Doctor dancing in a nightclub at the start of a new BBC trailer, wearing a singlet and kilt and nothing much else, it's clear that RTD has lost touch with who the lead character even is, and is instead writing some generic gay rom drama that happens to have a time travelling phone box in it. His disrespect of both Doctor Who's legacy in it's 60th anniversary year, and even his own legacy within that by bringing back David Tennant's Doctor only to shit all over it, has 'belled the cat' about how he will be proceeding with Doctor Who going forward. The only blessing is that its going to be so bad, that Doctor Who's days are now almost certainly numbered. And at this point, it deserves to be canceled again. It needs a rest, so someone new with an actual love of the I.P. can come along in a decade or two and revive it peoperly.

After 40 years I am officially done with the show.

If they thought Dr. Karen’s ratings were bad, they are going to absolutely crater moving forward. *Prediction:* Doctor Who has 2-3 years left before cancellation.

I honestly can't believe these clips are real, they are so off the scale ridiculous it's hard to believe someone actually wrote those lines and scenes and they got made without anyone with common sense saying "this story arch is crap and the dialogue is even worse"

I never liked Donna anyway.

They took the emotional bagage and replaced it with shit bagage.

I've lost star wars, I've lost Marvel, I've lost the Indiana Jones franchise and now I've lost Dr who. They'll feel it in their pockets, nobody is going to watch that nonsense.

Jodie Wittaker ruined the Dr. for me. I stayed up late to watch Dr Who every Sunday on channel 11 from Chicago back In the mid 80's. A true who fan could accept almost any story permutations. But no true Who fan gives a #2 about "preferred pronouns" It's beyond insane.

If The Doctor Was real, he'd see that we are stuck in some sort of confusing story line and try to fix it.

It's amazing that the original authors were right and we only got 12 generations of the doctor. That's quite a feat to see that far in the future and know exactly the era after which the doctor and show would ultimately die.

agree 100%, and I dont know why they hate the fans....I ve watched since 1984, and I am done

As a 53 year old brit who grew up on DW, I stopped watching when that fuckin women arrived. Watched the new specials , then went back in time and watched Daemons , then pandorica opens. Conclusion: new dr is like a temu rip off. RIP DW

How prophetic was it that the 12th Doctor's last words were, "Doctor, I let you go." 😢 Oh well, I have a lot of the original Doctor Who on DVD or Blu-Ray, and all of the modern Who through Capaldi (not all the 12th Doctor was woke or bad) on Blu-Ray. That's how I will choose to remember the show.

Capaldi's doctor had some really bad moments but I also think it may have had the best moments as well. It was such an up and down. The Zygone war speech from Capaldi may arguably be the best moment in the whole show. Him trapped in the confession dial I personally think was one of the most simple sequences in the show but also one of the most well written and emotional when the reveal happens.

I remember a time when looking at the history, even or especially the ugly stuff was held in high regards. Looking at facts, learning from mistakes. I kind of like this idea to be frank. Showing history not how it was but how you would like it is a dangerous path, because everyone has a different idea of what it "should" be. That is also an insult to the actual humans who did great things if you miss represent them. Imagine showing the "I have a dream" speech and having a white actor do it. Doesn't feel right. Similarly showing a historical figure that was white as a person of color just doesn't feel right. Facts should not be changed. Especially since I think showing it and talking in a respectful way how you could improve things has way more meaning then showing something wrong and claiming that's how it should be.

Loved Dr Who as a kid but it’s for no one now, certainly not kids!

As a Primeval fan, I would like to pay respects.

Doctor What, as in “What the hell are we supposed to like about seeing everything be destroyed before our eyes?” Doctor Why, as in “Why would they do this?” Doctor How, as in “How could they do this to us?” Doctor Where, as in “Where will the wokies go next?”

Maybe they should put a mustache on Daisy Ridley and have her play the part as a trans- investigator. Maybe they could convince former Star Wars fans to buy a ticket for that farce.

Also the 12th. Say what you want about the stories, but D A M N, that doctor was FANTASTIC. I leaned a lot from him and he will always be my doctor. 10 is also a big favorite and i loved his dinamic with donna in the 4th season. He also had G O O D stories, like midnight, waters of mars, the girl in the fireplace, human nature/family of blood, etc. But MAN, it would have been sublime that the series ended with the 12th doctor. A beautifully tragic ending, but fitting for a character like the doctor

Doctor Who re-invented itself after 16 years of hiatus (1989-2005) I believe this is the time to cancel it again and bring it back maybe 10-15 years later. My father grew up with the original, I grew up with 2005 Doctor Who (till 2016), and I hope my kids will have the same opportunity in 2035+

The biggest bug bear l have with the Doctor is that he's been sexualised, the doctor has always been non sexual, sure many of his companions have had crushes on him but it was only ever reciprocated with friendship, except River but that wasn't a sexual relationship either. Plus the Binary doctor splitting thing just made my skin crawl, so bleeding obvious and predictable, l was yelling at the tv saying "don't do it please" Anyway cancelled Disney now.
