@guy_underscore3 @gothoperas I know, but a lot of fandom doesn't include it with the rest of 2020s Who and acts like it's a cut above, which it really isn't

@emmmilysm @hostproductions Yeah, it's very transparent. Any admittance that Disney Who was the same show as NuWho is admitting Disney had no legal right to air it and the BBC had no legal right to sell it to them
English
@LEGORenjamin @hostproductions -streaming rights up until 2025. So the “reboot” was never because they *wanted* to reboot it. It was just so they could say “well it’s technically not Doctor Who (2005), so.. sorry HBO! you have no rights to this content!”
English
Given the current Dr Who situation I wonder if over time "S1 & 2" will be renamed / colloquially referred to as Series 14 & 15 absorbed into the 05-22 era?
Another inevitable revival is coming so calling it S3 feels counterproductive? Not that it matters, just a thought.

The fact that someone from the UK cannot answer 'yes' to this question without risking arrest is utterly dystopian.

@SpencerTracyFan @_PicklesParker Capaldi says it to Simm when breaking down what happened to him post EoT. Like this is undeniably the most seamless link between Masters
English
@LEGORenjamin @_PicklesParker Didn't SimmMaster even say they got rid of the drums? Or Missy said it?
Or did I imagine that?
English
The biggest issue is that it was a) so soon afterwards, and b) isn't really explained, but anybody who seriously thought the Master was going to either stay good, or never show up again, doesn't understand this show, you can't write off a character who's been returning since '71
Aaron Bailey@AaronBaileyArt
I'll never not be irritated with Doctor Who bringing back the Master and making him evil again. Missy had a beautiful arc and died siding with The Doctor and then in series 12 The Master just shows up evil again with no explanation.

In the UK if you honestly express favourable views about activist groups the government dislikes loyalty squads take you to the gulag for cognitive recalibration. Inquisitors often ask people if they support dissidents to test their mindless loyalty to the regime

@DLCDonut Mmm, yeah. I think It's also nice as Matt's not doing generic Doctor post regen stuff like usual. That's 11, fully formed, from right out of the gate.
English
@LEGORenjamin It is very odd and fun that once he's matt smith theres no "damn i guess im not david tennant anymore" he just jumps right in it's great
English
I know this is a very “everyone i like must agree with me” point but david tennant said in behind the scenes that hes worried ten’ll come across as whiney and pathetic, which he did so

this regeneration makes me laugh every time, it's trying so hard to be the saddest thing ever like idc, regenerate already!!

It genuinely amazes me that people actually thought this when the era started off with an idea as creatively bankrupt as David Tennant is the Doctor again

it does not take much for regular everyday people to start talking like 20th century Nazi eugenicists. it's why so many countries with medically assisted suicide start chokeholding disability benefits while broadening euthanasia requirements with full support of their citizens

Russel T. Davies destroyed his legacy so badly that we’re switching up on Tennant-era Never thought I’d see the day
English
@DLCDonut I think this is the most interesting regeneration as it's the one time both sides of it are pulling in such opposite directions. One side is doing everything to tell you the show can't continue without David and the other is not considering his incarnation for a second
English
I think murray’s score hurts it a lot too. The score shouldnt be telling the audience what to feel and this scores absolutely going “this is big and sad and important” which like, its not tho. It was sad at the time to see david leave but the doctors not dying, so
English
@_PicklesParker I don't really know what else you wanted with Simm connectivity. Her first episode she explains she survived because of DotD then her last one they explain exactly what happened to Simm after Galifrey was saved then show you what causes him to regen. What's left to want?
English
Missy's introduction also doesn't explain what happened to Simm's Master or follow up on the end of time in any way, so Im unsure why people expected much of one with Dhawan, in the same way that when Doctor's regenerate, they don't continue a character arc from their predecessor

@_PicklesParker the show did end in 2005, 2010, 2011, 2017, and 2022.
the reality war, really, is less an ending than any of them.

@JayExci @R3belDiamond The NuMaster has the issue of The Joker in that despite how much fans and the show want you to believe they're "Crazy" and chaotic they're very boringly predictable. The Master doesn't need to be good but it's as simple as them working for their own, warped idea of good
English
@R3belDiamond Wouldn't it have been compelling to meet a "reformed" master who, after a life of murder, atrocities, and other evil, is still guided by century old habits that drag him back down. Could have made for an interesting, unique villain, rather than the "I'm the joka baybe" we got
English
Every "you didn't understand it" in response then gives an explanation that's just a cope. You really think the story is better off for ignoring beyond even the slightest acknowledgement one of the most impactful arcs this character went through only twelve episodes ago? Really?

People *need* to understand this: the under-16 bans hit adults too.
Whether you’re 15 or 55, your ability to speak freely and anonymously online is at risk.

Labour handing the NHS over to Palantir, outlawing teen transitions and banning social media seems to put to bed any 'lesser of two evils' position forever. This is all as evil as it gets.
