Boot out RTD and his cronies and his irritating and annoying Huggy Bear Doctor and bring in J Michael Straczynski who wanted to become showrunner before RTD returned - he certainly couldn't do any worse than this awful season - and Babylon 5 is one of the few sci fi series which gave Who a runfor its money !!
As an american fan, I'm not too worried about Disney's involvelment. Mainly because if disney pulls the funding, and the agreement ends, then Bad Wolf and the BBC will just partner with another streamer like Max or Prime Video who were in a bidding war for the international rights to Doctor Who with disney for this new version of the show. The fact the show is with Bad Wolf Studios is the best assurance we whovians have that it will continue.
Me, neither. Though, I prefer the pre-2017 era, I have no issues with those who love all generations of "Doctor Who." Like what you like.
@@DonDonP1 past seasons look cheap. this looks expensive
@@endor8witch Because it's mostly CGI
That's good to know
Honestly, I'm sticking with the pre-2017 era of "Doctor Who," but I'm happy for those who love *all generations* of it. Keep up the good work, Roger!
Is anything getting huge ratings anymore? ‘The fall guy ‘ hit cinemas with great reviews , it failed & 2 weeks later it was on VOD, Same now with the new Max Max movie. Interest in TV & Movies seems to be flagging across the board with only a few exceptions.😢
I've heard that younger generations don't have the focus or attention span for films these days (because of media like that of tiktok). Personally for me, I'm never going to go to the cinema to watch a film that's too much over 2hrs. Since lord of the rings, most films have strived to match the runtime and "epic" feel to their own detriment. A long film's fine but sitting in a room with 200 random people for 3hrs isn't. It only takes 1 person to ruin the experience for everyone
I am enjoying the new Dr Who episodes very much. My favorite Doctor is Tom Baker so that kind of tells you how long I have been watching. 😂
He was my first, although I just remember being scared and liking Tom Baker. I remember the stories more from Davison.
Isn't amazing that this childhood show is still going strong?
YOOO ME TOO, 4 was my first Doctor lol. No matter what I love the show and will watch!
@@davewaring73I know and the amazing spin offs and all the media to come from it! It’s truly exciting:)
The (lack of) participation of the Doctor in 73 Yards makes perfect sense if you understand the behind-the-scenes of the episode (the BBC's Doctor Who Unleashed episode makes it apparent)
73 Yards was the first episode filmed and at the time Ncuti was off making Barbie (filmed in 2022)
Everyone keeps saying Sex Education. Was it actually Barbie?
Nah , he was only available for one day as he was finishing up his contract for ‘Sex Education’ - not filming Barbie
season 3 of sex educaiton
Ive been a doctor who fan since the 70s
I couldn't make it past three episodes... There is powerfful cringe in this show... Powerful cringe.
Episode numbering is a bit weird on Disney+. "The Church on Ruby Road" is both Special 4 and episode 1 of the new season, making the rest of the season one off from the BBC episode numbering.
It’s not really in Disney’s power to renew or cancel the show, it’s a matter of if they pull funding. It would be interesting if they then went to Prime or Netflix
Was looking for this comment.
Was going to say this myself but decided to look at the comments first.
The show is still 100% a BBC/Bad Wolf show. They get decide what happens with the show.
I would prefer Prime due to already for paying for it.
@@GregasaurausRex They did originally bid for it, so if Disney drops out they'd likely be in the running again.
I also have Prime but being in the UK it doesn't bother me as it's on BBC.
I was hoping it would go into partnership with Netflix as they tend not to interfere with a production but the same can be said for Prime. This video is great btw.
Disney don't produce it the BBC does so who cares
Agreed!
The most newest episode was so strange I thought. It really learned into horror but it was definitely a more Ruby focused storyline without the doctor at all. I still don’t know how to feel about it.
Parents are frightened to let kids watch it in the US. This includes LGBTQ-friendly people. Sorry. It’s just weird and too much. The found family thing was terrifying to parents because it seemed like horrible advice a bad person would give kids. It’s just awful writing, but it really scared people.
Me personally I like the new companion, however the new doctor not really, he just doesn’t really feel like the doctor to me. Maybe it’s the writing, I just know one thing is lacking. Millie is a great actor though.
I've only really started Dr Who since it is on Disney+ and I enjoyed the show so far! I had seen a few episodes before and tried to get into it but it always aired at inconvenient times, and though I have lots of Dr Who DVDs, I haven't really started to watch them. But the weekly release on D+ was exactly what I needed. I hope they go beyond Season 3.
The majority of the audience is overnight, +7 and +4Screen are far lower figures, just look at the figures.
My favorite is paul mcgann but in the new era it's david tenet
I don't think it will get a series 16/3, i don't have a favourite doctor, I do have a least favourite.
Absolutely LOVE Doctor Who and EVERY Dr. since #10 reboot. Sure, I prefer some over others and some stories more than others. But LOVE the show itself! Got hubby hooked with the #15 Dr. and now we watch together. But we're 2 episodes behind and that's 100% due to combo of work schedules, life needs, and the show's drop schedule! Friday at 4:00 p.m. PDT just ISN'T going to result in our watching the "newest" show anytime soon! While we try to see it the same weekend, often we just can't. I truly hope D+ takes a long view look though, as this is our ONLY access to the franchise (& the ONLY reason I'm STILL behind on the #13 storyline!) 🙏🙏🙏🙏 this stays for the long haul!

I have never ever been a fan of Dr Who is just so absolutely ridiculous, far-fetched it's past the point of being remotely
watchable.
I have cried to get in to
Dr who but I struggle to find it good in any shape or form if production was permently stopped I would not miss Dr Who in the slightest.
The weather really good the week ‘Boom’ was on which will have also hit the terrestrial viewing figures - i was in the garden sunning myself & didn’t watch it till next day on iPlayer
Black dude from the States and I'm enjoying it.
'73 Yards' was great. I really loved it.
I will say this, my mom stumbled on Who from scrolling through Disney+ and randomly watched Church on Ruby Road.
So Disney+ is working for some casuals.
It’ll probably just continue on bbc in uk, Disney plus or not!!! I’m actually really enjoying this series Ncuti is so charming to watch 💙💙
RTD has signed the show's death warrant.
So true. Such a waste.
Whether Disney support it or not, Doctor Who (now in its 40th season with 41 already in the can) will doubtless continue.
It can stop. It has in the past. Nothing is guaranteed.
Paul McKenna? Seriously?
Bugger….. your right …. it was Paul McGann . I had a Bald moment . Heck it was nearly 30 years ago I last watched it
Doctor who is the only good tv show on nowadays as a lot of tv shows are boring
Discuss the SHOW, not the ratings.
Actually BBC owns the Production rights to Doctor Who. Disney owns the streaming rights to Doctor Who. So its actually BBC not Disney that decides to renew Doctor Who.
RTD already said that if the Disney money dried up they’d just go back to doing lower budget stories the way they did before Disney
As I said in the video
I hope DW stops bothering with the international distribution rubbish and becomes a normal BBC prime time show again
Unfortunately, nowadays the BBC can't afford to make a show like this without international partners , but i do think it should premiere on BBC one first
Dr Who is That Show that Must go on.
I've been watching Dr Who for 50 years and the latest is just awful and that's being nice because it really sh@t. Bring back Tom Baker and defibrillator because it's got to be better, won't be watching this rubbish....😢
Tom Baker’s 4th Doctor was my first Doctor. Some Doctors have taken a while to get into but I’ve ended up enjoying them all (although Jodie’s outfit grated).
Enjoying the new series, not all episodes are ever equal.
Far too many Who fans that watch it and miss the core messages in the show. They wouldn’t be so negative if they really got what Doctor Who is about.
Been a fan of it si xe i was 12 in 2005 i got obsessed with the show in matt smith era abd adore peter capaldi and jodie whittaker so much , however wasbt a fan of lsst years specials ...and spsce babies was an sbysmal first episode of a series compared to previous series openers New Earth is now not the worst opener! Space babies takes the title sadly ....devils chord was held together by its villain, boom was decent but i LOVED 73 YARDS. Gatwa i havent connected with like i did with Smith, Eccleston, Capaldi, Whittaker even Jo Martin i adored in her episodes as fugitive Doctor ... But millie gibson is FANTASTIC as Ruby 73 Yards was brill i hope that sustains for the last four weeks ... Abd hopefully announce spin offs soon ....
I'm a lifelong fan of DW and I can't see a great future with Disney so I hope Prime or Netflix take it up as they interfere less than Disney plus. I won't give up on it.
The problem is it’s repeating stories an assistant with a mystery to solve 73 yards rehash of turn lefti like him as a doctor but fed up of throwing in things like “ I did that at a lesbian wedding “ would lesbians say lesbian wedding or just wedding etc and the original was cancelled due to the head of the bbc didn’t like doctor who he has admitted it in interviews. Have you noticed the same actress is appearing throughout the series as a newtons maid, a crowd member, a crew member, a canteen lady, an ambulance and a hiker.
I Think they should but depends on Disney numbers
I highly doubt Disney had the power to cancel doctor who, it’s just licensing and adding the funding that goes purely towards marketing.
I prefer to pay to see it on Disneyplus with no commercials than BBC America with a commercials seeming to be every minute or so.
Space babies was definitely a weird one. It’s the sort of thing that would work so much better in animation I feel life. The whole concept of space cadet babies too on the same line of Star Trek.
A doctor light episode is weird? Turn left and blink must blow your mind 🤣
I really hope they continue to make Doctor Who. Series 11 and 12 under Chris Chibnall were admittedly abysmal. But ever sense Flux and beyond I’ve found that Doctor Who has been regaining it’s footing on what made it so great in the first place. #15 is just a wonderful Doctor and Ruby as a companion is fantastic.
If they don’t il cry
Me to
I've never watched Dr. Who, so this show is a bit different and I enjoy it.
I'd like to see previous seasons, hope Disney can get them
The reboot is on Max and the older ones are on Britbox
hope god not as doctor who was doing better when they had limited budget
We have no actual data on how it’s doing on Disney.
There is some country specific data based on Disney+ top 10 most watched - ie in Brazil it is Number 4 in the top 10 most watched tv shows on Disney+ (After X-men 97 & a couple of shows i haven’t heard of!)
Exactly! When something is doing well, they make sure everyone knows it is!
Do they?
Disney doesn't have the power to renew doctor who for a third season, only broadcasting it.
Only the bbc have that power.
Disney has the power about if it invests in any more
I wish that those of us watching the doctor on disney could see the after shows for doctor who
I think the Chapek theory is a good one. Because it doesn't seem like current Disney cares about the show. Three things strike me...
1. Space babies was a terrible opener. If Disney really wanted this to succeed for audiences in other countries, I believe they would have asked RTD to switch up the order of episodes.
2. RTD and Moffat both said Disney has given minimal notes on the show. They presented this as a good thing, but to me it sounds like the Disney management is completely unengaged. If you look at the news around other Disney+ shows, Disney tends to give a ton of notes
3. After the first episode, the marketing seems to have stopped. I'm not even getting the referral for new episodes on Disney+ anymore
It's also strange that they've already wrapped season 2. Seems like the smart idea would be to not start filming until season 1 had completed. Because it gives you a chance to course correct if the show is not finding its audience.
If it is already in your "continue watching" category they aren't going to recommend it to you because you are already watching it.
They did switch up the order of episodes but internally there is only so much switching you can do without affecting season story arcs etc. Of course they would say that Disney gave minimal notes - because if they said that Disney gave tons of notes that would only increase the anti-Disney feeling mentioned , where everything wrong with the show is blamed on Disney interference. Scheduling the shoots is down to logistics too - Ncuti Gatwa was already booked to do a play at the National Theatre at the end of the year & has several other projects booked in, so they had to squeeze in the second season before his availability dried up.
Dr Who is a mirror. A mirror of the times and of you. If you like this or Ms Whitakers seasons you must fit in well today. But perhaps, just perhaps....you should see a Doctor.
Too early to tell, isn’t it?
The BBC mayjust take it back
Make Kelsey Grammer the Doctor and Jim Parsons the Master......
NO! Whatever you do, do not put Republican Trumper Kelsey fucking Grammer anywhere near Doctor Who.
I'd accept a Doctor of any gender or ethnicity, but never an American.
new fan and im loveing this show im also enjoying unleashed the behind the seens show i dont know if thats on disney plus Ncuti is amazing as the doctor and im glad this show is getting made and hopefully we get a season 3 anouncement before season 2 starts i think as well that this show is global and proubly costs less than makeing a orginal sci fi show for hulu/star
I like doctor who
wait there's only 4 eps in one season?
Nope,..there's another four to come in season 1
@@WhatsOnDisneyPlus oh good cause 73 may have its many unexplined plotlines but it's so good! it picked up pace with that ep tbh
Consistently hitting over 2 million viewers in the UK despite the DR Who episodes hitting earlier on iPlayer is pretty solid. Not many TV shows these days does over 2 million viewers on TV. DR Who although ain't something that I'm into, will be fine on D+ and the BBC.
Your cope is staggering
If Disney doesn’t renew it, BBC should by default get it back. This is way beyond Disney+. They are supporting role.
BBC doesn’t have to get it back. They still absolutely own the rights to the show. Disney+ just owns streaming rights to the new episodes until the contract expires.
Where's the money gone?
This show is ugly, bad writing not worth watching.
Are you 5 years old or do you just have the mental age of a 5 year old ?
Badly written tosh -Disney have helped to destroy it I think.
I think as long as DISNEY, keeps doing the Woke setup crap, the (DOCTOR WHO) show franchise is destined to end, and there for no more seasons will get made.
You really need to spend more time practicing your English & less time commenting on RUclips videos 😅
If you push DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) onto an existing franchise or IP with an established fanbase, said franchise/IP is going to suffer.
Disney’s Star Wars and Marvel shows, Amazon’s Rings of Power, Apple’s Foundation, to name but a few, are examples of the harm that can be done to beloved books, movies and TV shows when infused with this liberal nonsense.
I acknowledge that there are those who enjoy this stuff, and that’s all well and good, but do not disparage those who express dislike for this content, as Ncuti Gatwa has done. If you alienate the core fans, which keep these franchises alive, you’re shooting yourself in the foot.
Reap as sown!
Suffice it to say, I won’t be watching this incarnation of the Doctor and the woke nonsense being pushed.
I shall go out and ‘touch grass’, 🙄, assuming the weather's nice.
People who talk about DEI unironically really have no good arguments. Ncuti was hired because he's a good actor that RTD chose during an audition. Unless you can prove some other way he got the job, you're just talking nonsense.
You need to get a life as you’ve left the same comment on multiple Doctor Who videos - it’s almost like you have an agenda of your own ! If you think Dr Who only just got ‘woke’ then you haven’t seen any over it over the previous 60 years😅
@@nathanthomas5133I’ve left similar comments on other posts because I have a consistent point of view and opinion. My opinion is consistent with my values and beliefs and doesn’t change and isn’t dependent on the whims of society.
As for Doctor Who always being woke, that’s your subjective opinion.
The character of the Doctor has always been fair in his treatment of others, will challenge and oppose those who he disagrees with, when necessary. That’s the character of the Doctor.
That you speak of me as having an agenda is ironic as to be bewildering!
RTD and those that support him are the ones with a not so subtle agenda!
The fact remains that DEI is required of companies today if they’re to secure the investment that they need and require from those self-appointed arbiters of what is truthful, right and acceptable.
Who appointed those who impose DEI on companies?
I’ve watched Doctor Who since my childhood, when Tom Baker was the Doctor of the day.
If you enjoy this iteration of the Doctor, so be it, but don’t try and chastise me for expressing an opinion.
As I have stated before, provided a person isn’t being hateful of others, all opinions are welcome.
