The fact that this show was once so popular that they needed to simulcast the 50th anniversary special across the world at the same time in order to avoid any spoilers getting to fans in different time zones, and now most people don’t even know that there was a female Doctor, should absolutely have gotten a dozen higher-ups fired, yet they haven’t even punished the show runners who lead the shows during this unprecedented free fall of popularity.
When you can legally tax your viewers under punishment of imprisonment if you don't, its obvious, you can do what you want. Scrap the TV licence and Dr who would return to what the fans want faster than me driving my wife to the woods to meet a bear.
1:44 Saddest thing of all is about this scene, is thanks to the Timeless Childern, everything about the Doctor and his connection to Gallifrey has far less meaning now.
@@friendlyotaku9525No that a completely different unanswered question, the better point is who cares about the Doctor’s name anymore. He had loads and everything connected to that particular life he ran away from is meaningless as he had more than countable. Adding more crap doesn’t always mean better, heck I’d say it always equal worse.
Oh wow, actually if stamping on a butterfly is enough to change the future events to the extent where you could become a lizard person, the time that the butterfly was held up for would also have a drastic impact on future events rendering its resurrection completely redundant.
The dumbest part is that the butterfly effect has already been debunked in certain fields of quantum science. It's just a completely pointless inclusion that's only there because the butterfly effect is a popular thing to depict in stories involving time travel in the prehistoric world. Simpsons literally did it.
@@TheCrimsonElite666 And The Simpsons were in turn referencing a story by Ray Bradbury. The difference is that they did something really funny with it, and these people have done... Well, whatever this is.
The Doctor has done regeneration energy shenanigans before to heal stuff. Like when Matt Smith's 11th Doctor healed River Songs wrist. But simply breathing on something to bring it back to life is a bit of a strech in my opinion.

You wonder why they didn't just throw in the effect, can't be that hard to do, they have done it before. Bit of yellow gold cloudy stuff comes out of his cupped hands, bang, problem solved.
Whenever he did that, he always did it to living human (or human adjacent) beings. Not some stupid butterfly. 😂 I love butterflies but come on, wasting about 5 years of regeneration on a freaking insect?? When he fixed Rivers broken wrist she slapped him and was pissed because he just gave her years of his life for a wrist. And, there was glowing stuff. It wasn't just breathing.
@@friendlyotaku9525 It's a butterfly. It's going to die in like three days. That was pointless and the Doctor would never actually waste it on that. Maybe if it was a deer or bigger animal but not a damn butterfly.
As an AMERICAN Doctor Who Fan for 40 years, until now. It actually really pains me that I know this. Matt Smith, David Tennant, and John Hurt changed History by some kind of All The Doctors doing Math for ever. Since THE FIRST DOCTOR William Hartnell. They killed the Daleks (But, of fourse, they didnt) and saved Galifrey. And it was like that since the 50th Anniversary. Then Chibnall just had the Master go there, Off Caera, and just kill every body Anyway. So, Galifrey was no longer destroued by the Time War. It was, in fact, destroyed by REALLY, SHITTY, WRITING. Thank You For Your Time.
Though Stevie boy wonder, retconned it first by making it that the Doctor didn't destroy Gallifrey when he actually did. Moffat is to blame just as much as Chrisy & Russell.
I'm gonna be honest, I always thought the Day of the Dr. explanation that they didn't actually die, he just thought they did and couldn't remember otherwise was too easy an out, but I didn't mind since it was a fun episode and the "last of the timelords" schtick had run its course. I was happy to see Gallifrey back. Unfortunately, it looks like after doing not all that much with Gallifrey or the Timelords, they've weirdly gone back to the last of the timelords thing again? I haven't watched the Jodie Whittaker episodes, so I'm assuming it has something to do with Chibnall.
Why do all the shows designed for "modern audiences" constantly fail on the most basic stuff: acting, directing, dialogues, story telling, morals, emotions, character arcs, world building.... How do these people suck at EVERYTHING???

Especially from the guy who calculated how many children were on Gallifrey before it fell.
He smiles because subconsciously he’s loving that the foundations of who the doctor was is gone. It’s like, he’s relishing in the destruction of it as if it were the British culture being left behind, you know the culture which made Doctor who to begin with.
I think this would be quite offensive to gays. It is more like some sort of pantomime of what a gay person should be. The kind of stereotype where all Brits have top hats and slurp tea at 5 o clock, or all Frenchmen having stripped shirts and a baguette stuck on the armpit, but making gay people really unlikeable. It also seems to glorify being ignorant and a dumbass. "That is english" seriously? I get that is a joke... That only shows the character is really stupid. btw, even if all the words are correct Spanish, that name doesn't make any sense, it is just gibberish "peaceful of the river"
The butterfly thing is so stupid, the doctor interacts with people all the time across time and space how has that not impacted things?! Such a stupid writing for a quick joke that breaks established law within the show.
One thing that bothers me is where the hell are the Reapers in response to this time paradox? Father's Day demonstrates why you should never mess with fixed points in time because doing so summons Reapers who start devouring everyone in an attempt to destroy what's causing the time disruption. If stepping on a butterfly is enough to cause humanity to change, then the series should've ended with The Doctor and his companion getting eaten by Reapers because even the Doctor was killed by one in Father's Day and was brought back when Rose Tyler's father sacrificed himself to fix the time disruption.
@@TheCrimsonElite666 True they should not have established that in the show... tbh I hated those creatures.. the idea is stupid. Maybe they are trying to forget it exists, its all about fixed points... surely a paradox that it would cause, basically forcing an alternative universe.
The one unbelievable thing about that scene in “The Devil’s Chord” is that a schoolboy at a school at which he is required to wear a school cap is wearing it INDOORS. He would never do that. He would have had to remove it before entering or have his hand smacked with a ruler.
The master killed the time lords on Gallifrey in the series 12 finale ua-cam.com/video/CLT2wnMEeWY/v-deo.html. That's also the episode where they retcon the doctor's and the time lord's backstory so a lot of key plot points from the Moffat era just don't make sense.

I need a full investigation on if TV license funds this crap . Does my friendly elderly neighbor lady who brings me tea time cupcakes and watches only cooking channels , is paying for this to exist ? . That makes me bit angry
No, apparently that's why Disney is footing the bill for the next two seasons, also it's my belief why they kept both doctors, so that russel t Davies couple play around with his fake gay doctor, but BBC can still have their "traditional" real doctor. That had to have been the agreement, I'm sure there's no way, as progressive as the bbc is, I'm sure they recognize that this nonzense wouldn't fly were it being funded by tax payer money.
It's BBC funded so yeah... almost as bad as the CBC. They should consider themselves lucky, if I were across the pond and they tried to pull this crap: tea would be hitting the waters of the bay within' the half hour "no taxation without representation" etc.
A minor issue, but the old Doctor use to follow science. Free floating music notation without the lines of the graph convey nothing. No chord, no tones, no rhythm. What a stupid show.
I was in middle school when I first watched Doctor Who. I am now 23 years old and graduated from university. I started watching from the first season when Christopher was The Doctor. I loved this series. I have memorized the episodes by now. I still watch them over and over. My favorite Doctor is Capaldi. We saw the most realistic side of the Doctor with Capaldi. The series should have ended there but it continued. The Doctor Who with Jodie wasn't bad, I could really see the effort, some of the episodes weren't bad either, but they suddenly changed the past we know about the Doctor in a ridiculous way. Also, Jodie's assistants were the coldest assistants I've ever seen. In Gatwa, the influences of Disney are very obvious. Everyone is too loud, too expressive, too musical and too many " pronouns problems "... The first person to land on the moon was in 1969 and this series started airing even before that. And the final state it has reached is really sad. For me, the series and The Doctor ended with Capaldi and that's it. I will not watch the new episodes, i really can't take this nonsense anymore.
His run as a black doctor just started and he's already ranting about how great it is that he's unemployed. Writers, what exactly are you trying to say? What message could you possibly be trying to convey here? Hmmm, thinking emoji.
I was a Dr Who watcher similar to you. I jumped in during the Christopher Eccleston era and had a lot of fun being invested in the show. However, I had kind of burned out by the end of Matt Smith’s run when the writers decided that the Doctor was the most important person in the universe for some reason. Now, for me, the show is kind of like a train wreck I’m seeing reports of on the news: a distant tragedy I’m not directly connected to. Still sad to watch it burn though.
I've had a similar experience. Stopped watching during Matt Smith's run but I still respect both his and Capaldi's Doctors and at least kept track of the story. But no moooore :-D
Oh no the most ancient and intelligent alien in the whole galaxy is important? Damn, what an absurd thing! I wish he would simply run away from every monster of the week and just trip on the solution while exclaiming "blimey!"
pascalsimioli6777 if you watch the original show, the Doctor was just a guy, a really smart guy in difficult situations. The first doctor was so old he had ian chesterton do most of the physical work while he offered the more cerebral aspects to solving their problems. Some of the best stories in Doctor Who have the doctor as just part of the story.
To fully nitpick the scene about the butterflies ahem. It makes no sense that killing the butterflies would make humans lizard people because mammals are already modified lizards with a few traded features and back then they mostly scavenged on insects, eggs, and other smaller food items. Consider also that it is a monarch butterfly which on top of existing way later, also tastes extremely bad and is toxic to eat. So the butterfly’s existence would literally make little to no difference in any direct manner since even if it was eaten by proto mammals it would be spat out immediately. This has been overthinking by a lad who has spent too much on a bio degree he doesn’t get enough use out of.
To over think your overthink, and admittedly doing no research whatsoever, there could be a sliver of logic to their insanity. Most mammalian species that took over and were successful rely on the pollenisation of plants. Ther herbivores and omnivores directly, and the predators rely on those two subsets to be able to succeed so they can then predate on them. Now its utterly ridiculous how its portrayed there, as this theory only works under the assumption that that singular butterfly was the genus for a whole species and killing it prevented that entire species from coming into be. But our agriculture is under threat due to the decline in bee populations for that very reason, so i can see where some blue haired fruitcake saw the bee thing and thought combining that with the whole 'butterfly effect' thing was utter genius. Of course they would they have the IQ of a lemon drizzle cake. So i can see where they got the idea, they just executed it like they were executing a POW. Rather than a good story.
The thing that ultimately drives evolution is usually mutations in the genes. (There are other methods too, but the biggest one is mutations). Stepping on a butterfly should have no effect. The whole line about stepping on a butterfly is meant to be taken figuratively that any little change could have ripple effects. It makes no sense literally and is not supposed to be taken as such.
Doctor Who needs to go away for a while. Another two or three decade break. Get some new people involved. It was getting bad even before Disney came in. They just have a budget now.
Why is the BBC and Hollywood soooo invested in this ideology?? I truly do not understand it. It destroyed Star Wars, Marvel, Disney and Dr. Who (along with countless other projects). Can someone just develop talent and good stories based on...well... talent and good writing?
I know Gatwa came to the UK from Rwanda, but he was six years old at the time. What the Hell is that accent of his, and why does it sound like it's being played at too many RPM's?
I contemplate at least three possibilities: 1. Affectation. 2. Identity affirmation (very fashionable these days, you know). 3. He's having a laugh making it deliberately hard for the audience to understand him. In any case, I'm pretty sure that any acting training includes teaching you to do different accents. He may use any accent he prefers in real life, of course, but the characters he plays should... Oh, never mind. I forgot self-insertion...
Huh, so the queer guy can call the white girl 'babes' and thats fine, but the music teacher calls a bloke named henry 'him' and all of a sudden we need a pro noun show down? funny that aint it, almost like its a one way street or something. Weird!
Russell T Davies went from one of best people to run a TV show way back in the 2000s to just "I'm bigger than every other talented writer and I can just write about whatever I feel like because Doctor Who is mine now and I want to shove preachiness down your throat because society is evil" If that's not arrogance I don't know what is.
Wait… im no doctor who expert, but doesnt the butterfly thing break how the time travel works in doctor who? I think there was never an episode where doctor changed something and it had an Impact on the future. Because otherwise Doctor would only have to pasively watch and dont touch anything… thats not how previous episodes looked like… there were few things he couldnt and shouldnt change but other than that id say doctor and their companion did much more changes that just stepping on one butterfly
Fixed points were a key part of the best RTD episodes in RTD's last era. Father's day, the Fires of Pompeii, the Waters of Mars. He's being inconsistent with his last era too.
Not excusing lazy writing but the Doctor alters the future many times. In "Pyramid of Mars" (1977) he shows Sarah-Jane the dead world of 1980 if he doesn't stop Sutekh. Episode available free on Tubi.
@@robertbrown3413 I didn't see all of doctor who and what I saw I don't remember very well, so there are definitely things in that world I have no idea about, but (and I have no idea why) the butterfly thing felt somehow odd for a doctor who show... maybe it was just that it was kind of "basic time travel cliché" that I didn't notice in the episodes I saw... maybe It was actually the lazy writing the caught be off guard not the time travel rules themselves
@@EL-ql2fc Pyramid of Mars does the cliché to great effect. The story possibly inspired Stargate. At the end a (model) stately home burns down and someone complained to the BBC that they set a real fire!
I'm pretty sure time travel in the doctor who universe works on more predestine (it was and so it will always be) rules so squishing a butterfly shouldn't really change anything since you would have always squashed that thing. You know fix points and the like.
It used to. Up to Capaldi any effect to change the past or influence the future was usually stopped or it was supposed to happen that way in the first place. I know they got rid of majority of the old writers so I think they changed it with Whitaker but I'm not sure.

Well RTD isn't saving Doctor Who. Our only hope now is that after this fails spectacularly, the executives wise up and find someone who's talented, creative, apolitical, and likes and respects the original series. So Doctor Who's probably just dead then.

The word 'trans' itself means by definition to 'go from one thing to another' ie Transport, Transfer, Transition, Translate, etc and so on its a middle ground not an end point. This is why i dont play the pro noun game, language MATTERS! If i point at a dude with a beard in a dress im going to go 'him' if im pointing them out to someone, why? because who ever i am pointing it out to is likely to think i assume one of the actual women if i said 'her' and it confuses the matter and makes the act of getting your point across so much more difficult. Language exists to communicate our thoughts effectively and efficiently from our brains into someone elses via our mouths, ears and the medium of the language itself. Its like Driving from work to home, and declaring yourself to be the road in between, rather than being at home or at work, and they wonder why they struggle with identity, they dont understand what identity is to begin with it would seem.

The "Genocide" he refers to is actually the *second death of Galifrey.* Steven Moffat made a big deal about saving Galifrey from the Time War, only to do absolutely nothing with it, then Chibnal had the Master destroy Galifrey offscreen. This show has been a mess since 2011.
I'm a casual but man this space babies episode feels like it's designed to be as confusing tonally as a bad comedy skit involving say AIDs or something.
In one of the Christmas specials when david tenat has recently regenerated he used the extra regeneration energy to regrow his hand and in another episode river song used her extra regeneration energy to heal the doctor from the poison she had given him. So there is precedence but it's still a bit out there to be pulling a Paul with the butterfly.
The Boogeyman ending was like the hard opposite of Wild Blue Yonder. In WBY I was bothered by the fact the Doctor never tried to find out what they were, or why they wanted to leave.

They did the butterfly joke again but worse? In season 3 when Martha asked 10 the same question he just said, "don't step on any butterflies then". It was a much better response and a lot funnier the way Tennant delivered it
The whole starting season one again is to make it harder to find on rotten tomatoes so people cant review it. I tried to find it, admittedly not very hard but for at least 45 seconds and I could not find it.
The 'slangy' language started back before the JW version of the person playing the Doctor. Remember 'Ma Fam'? I remember when the Doctor belied his 'man out of time' aspect by using a broad range of vocabulary that didn't include 2020s colloquialisms. RTD is, was and will always be an over-hyped hack who's been riding the wave of his own self importance. I doubt that, had the BBC not had a thing for hiring 'regional talent' (notice how the RTD era was produced by BBC Wales, and Moffat shows were by BBC Scotland?) to show that they weren't just London-centric lefty 'dahlings', that he would've got the job in the first place.

The problem with New Doctor Who they changed it completely. Never mess with classic British fiction. That is why King Arthur/Merlin, Robin Hood, Sherlock Holmes and James Bond last for so long, keep the same formula which works. New Doctor Who is not imaginative writing, it is just silliness. Anyone can re-write classics like making King Arthur a Chinese pansexual , Camelot built in Tahlinquh Oklahoma, lives with his ballerina Knights of the enneagram table. Make Sherlock Holmes a human lizard addicted to musicals solving crimes in London Kiribati. Or Robin Hood an Irishman of the 1845 wearing a red riding hood stealing from the poor and giving his loot to John Jacob Astor. This is what New Doctor Who is like to long time Whovians.

Like my first comment there is innovative and imaginative wringing but also silly writing which is this what this new who is. It could be way better
Also if the butterfly did come out of the tardis then letting it live would’ve changed it as because it wasn’t part of that timeline but from the original timeline.
This Doctor reminds of Dave Chappelle's "Same Hero, New Boots" character. He saves people, but they never remember him. "Because, dummy, he's gay. He keeps changing his outfit."
The butterfly…is the dumbest thing. What about all the other times they walked outside the tardis and took part in history? This was a pathetic gag written by an incompetent writer who remembered the butterfly effect story in their college class and was like, “let’s use that!”
Ofc no one watched the episode. It's trash. A stupid unfunny gag "butterfly compensation switch" doesn't make it less trash. You're being unfriendly, and keep your filthy "otaku" hands off my anime so you don't ruin it also. You aren't helping anyone or anything by trying to defend this awful series.
I'm not disagreeing with your POV, but if I must be a pedantic Whovian: 2:10 The genocide the Doctor is referring to is when the Master destroyed all the Gallifreyans during 13's run (not the Time War). 5:18 And it's been shown that the Doctor (and other time lords) can use regeneration energy at will to heal things (like when River Song saved 11, and 11 healed River's hand).
There's nothing enigmatic or disputed about the Hard Day's Night chord. F triad add 9 over D. It's basically a sus dominant leading to the home G (in the context of G Miixolydian, where the chords seesaw between G and F).
My family owns every season up until the Capaldi years. We STILL rewatch them. They were THAT good! It's sad that this series has gone so far off the rails that many of its fans consider it over. 😢
I'm fairly sure that previously in DW, it is established that the TARDIS emits an anti-paradox field (or something) so stepping on a butterfly would be similarly negated.
and the Doctor literally says he forgot to turn that on with the new console. It's almost as if basing your opinion off some rando online and not making your own causes you to miss out on the full picture?
Why would a character be speaking so happily about their past trauma? Why would they focus on such superficial benefits from an entire civilization being wiped out? And why is this front loaded in the first 5 minutes of meeting a new person? No one tells this much about themselves to a person they just met. And its painfully obvious they are doing this because they feel like they can't hold the audience's attention for the next five minutes. If the audience didn't want to watch they wouldn't watch it. Don't sacrifice story telling and character for a demographic that wasn't going to watch your story to begin with
The fact that this show was once so popular that they needed to simulcast the 50th anniversary special across the world at the same time in order to avoid any spoilers getting to fans in different time zones, and now most people don’t even know that there was a female Doctor, should absolutely have gotten a dozen higher-ups fired, yet they haven’t even punished the show runners who lead the shows during this unprecedented free fall of popularity.

@@Naptosis that's literally part of the mystery.
@@friendlyotaku9525No that a completely different unanswered question, the better point is who cares about the Doctor’s name anymore.

Oh wow, actually if stamping on a butterfly is enough to change the future events to the extent where you could become a lizard person, the time that the butterfly was held up for would also have a drastic impact on future events rendering its resurrection completely redundant.
The dumbest part is that the butterfly effect has already been debunked in certain fields of quantum science. It's just a completely pointless inclusion that's only there because the butterfly effect is a popular thing to depict in stories involving time travel in the prehistoric world. Simpsons literally did it.
@TheCrimsonElite666 that's how alot of crap gets pushed into being believed as tru like the one phone call thing or how suppressors work
@@michaelortiz1561 and now you see media for what it really is, a machine to push narratives, not tell real stories.
@@TheCrimsonElite666 And The Simpsons were in turn referencing a story by Ray Bradbury. The difference is that they did something really funny with it, and these people have done... Well, whatever this is.
What about all the microbes and worms they trod upon in all their adventures? No ramifications? Just if it's a butterfly?
The Doctor has done regeneration energy shenanigans before to heal stuff. Like when Matt Smith's 11th Doctor healed River Songs wrist. But simply breathing on something to bring it back to life is a bit of a strech in my opinion.
You wonder why they didn't just throw in the effect, can't be that hard to do, they have done it before.
Bit of yellow gold cloudy stuff comes out of his cupped hands, bang, problem solved.
The Doctor did this back in Serirs 2.
Whenever he did that, he always did it to living human (or human adjacent) beings. Not some stupid butterfly. 😂 I love butterflies but come on, wasting about 5 years of regeneration on a freaking insect??
When he fixed Rivers broken wrist she slapped him and was pissed because he just gave her years of his life for a wrist. And, there was glowing stuff. It wasn't just breathing.
@@emma_luce_1123 It's a small living thing. And 5 years is nothing to a Time Lord.
@@friendlyotaku9525 It's a butterfly. It's going to die in like three days. That was pointless and the Doctor would never actually waste it on that. Maybe if it was a deer or bigger animal but not a damn butterfly.
As an AMERICAN Doctor Who Fan for 40 years, until now. It actually really pains me that I know this. Matt Smith, David Tennant, and John Hurt changed History by some kind of All The Doctors doing Math for ever. Since THE FIRST DOCTOR William Hartnell. They killed the Daleks (But, of fourse, they didnt) and saved Galifrey.
And it was like that since the 50th Anniversary.
Then Chibnall just had the Master go there, Off Caera, and just kill every body Anyway.
So, Galifrey was no longer destroued by the Time War.
It was, in fact, destroyed by REALLY, SHITTY, WRITING.
Thank You For Your Time.
Though Stevie boy wonder, retconned it first by making it that the Doctor didn't destroy Gallifrey when he actually did. Moffat is to blame just as much as Chrisy & Russell.
I'm gonna be honest, I always thought the Day of the Dr. explanation that they didn't actually die, he just thought they did and couldn't remember otherwise was too easy an out, but I didn't mind since it was a fun episode and the "last of the timelords" schtick had run its course. I was happy to see Gallifrey back. Unfortunately, it looks like after doing not all that much with Gallifrey or the Timelords, they've weirdly gone back to the last of the timelords thing again? I haven't watched the Jodie Whittaker episodes, so I'm assuming it has something to do with Chibnall.
"My home is called Gallifrey"
"And where's that?"

Don’t, I turned it off the moment he brought a butterfly back to life by blowing on it. What are they doing?
He smiles because subconsciously he’s loving that the foundations of who the doctor was is gone. It’s like, he’s relishing in the destruction of it as if it were the British culture being left behind, you know the culture which made Doctor who to begin with.

I think this would be quite offensive to gays. It is more like some sort of pantomime of what a gay person should be. The kind of stereotype where all Brits have top hats and slurp tea at 5 o clock, or all Frenchmen having stripped shirts and a baguette stuck on the armpit, but making gay people really unlikeable.
It also seems to glorify being ignorant and a dumbass. "That is english" seriously? I get that is a joke... That only shows the character is really stupid. btw, even if all the words are correct Spanish, that name doesn't make any sense, it is just gibberish "peaceful of the river"

The butterfly thing is so stupid, the doctor interacts with people all the time across time and space how has that not impacted things?! Such a stupid writing for a quick joke that breaks established law within the show.
One thing that bothers me is where the hell are the Reapers in response to this time paradox? Father's Day demonstrates why you should never mess with fixed points in time because doing so summons Reapers who start devouring everyone in an attempt to destroy what's causing the time disruption. If stepping on a butterfly is enough to cause humanity to change, then the series should've ended with The Doctor and his companion getting eaten by Reapers because even the Doctor was killed by one in Father's Day and was brought back when Rose Tyler's father sacrificed himself to fix the time disruption.
@@TheCrimsonElite666 True they should not have established that in the show... tbh I hated those creatures.. the idea is stupid. Maybe they are trying to forget it exists, its all about fixed points... surely a paradox that it would cause, basically forcing an alternative universe.

No, apparently that's why Disney is footing the bill for the next two seasons, also it's my belief why they kept both doctors, so that russel t Davies couple play around with his fake gay doctor, but BBC can still have their "traditional" real doctor. That had to have been the agreement, I'm sure there's no way, as progressive as the bbc is, I'm sure they recognize that this nonzense wouldn't fly were it being funded by tax payer money.
It's BBC funded so yeah... almost as bad as the CBC. They should consider themselves lucky, if I were across the pond and they tried to pull this crap: tea would be hitting the waters of the bay within' the half hour "no taxation without representation" etc.

I was in middle school when I first watched Doctor Who. I am now 23 years old and graduated from university. I started watching from the first season when Christopher was The Doctor. I loved this series. I have memorized the episodes by now. I still watch them over and over. My favorite Doctor is Capaldi. We saw the most realistic side of the Doctor with Capaldi. The series should have ended there but it continued. The Doctor Who with Jodie wasn't bad, I could really see the effort, some of the episodes weren't bad either, but they suddenly changed the past we know about the Doctor in a ridiculous way. Also, Jodie's assistants were the coldest assistants I've ever seen. In Gatwa, the influences of Disney are very obvious. Everyone is too loud, too expressive, too musical and too many " pronouns problems "... The first person to land on the moon was in 1969 and this series started airing even before that. And the final state it has reached is really sad. For me, the series and The Doctor ended with Capaldi and that's it. I will not watch the new episodes, i really can't take this nonsense anymore.
my rule of thumb is, if it was realeased after 2016 then probably a hot dumbster fire
i only watch stuff released before 2016
post-2008 is spotty in places both otherwise *mostly* salvageable
I regard 'Heaven Sent' (November 2015) as the last episode.
His run as a black doctor just started and he's already ranting about how great it is that he's unemployed.
Writers, what exactly are you trying to say? What message could you possibly be trying to convey here?
Hmmm, thinking emoji.
I was a Dr Who watcher similar to you. I jumped in during the Christopher Eccleston era and had a lot of fun being invested in the show. However, I had kind of burned out by the end of Matt Smith’s run when the writers decided that the Doctor was the most important person in the universe for some reason. Now, for me, the show is kind of like a train wreck I’m seeing reports of on the news: a distant tragedy I’m not directly connected to. Still sad to watch it burn though.
I've had a similar experience. Stopped watching during Matt Smith's run but I still respect both his and Capaldi's Doctors and at least kept track of the story. But no moooore :-D
Oh no the most ancient and intelligent alien in the whole galaxy is important? Damn, what an absurd thing! I wish he would simply run away from every monster of the week and just trip on the solution while exclaiming "blimey!"
pascalsimioli6777 if you watch the original show, the Doctor was just a guy, a really smart guy in difficult situations. The first doctor was so old he had ian chesterton do most of the physical work while he offered the more cerebral aspects to solving their problems. Some of the best stories in Doctor Who have the doctor as just part of the story.
Dang that breathing trick could have saved a lot of companions and people.
Like a LOT a lot
To fully nitpick the scene about the butterflies ahem.
It makes no sense that killing the butterflies would make humans lizard people because mammals are already modified lizards with a few traded features and back then they mostly scavenged on insects, eggs, and other smaller food items. Consider also that it is a monarch butterfly which on top of existing way later, also tastes extremely bad and is toxic to eat. So the butterfly’s existence would literally make little to no difference in any direct manner since even if it was eaten by proto mammals it would be spat out immediately.
This has been overthinking by a lad who has spent too much on a bio degree he doesn’t get enough use out of.
Quite interesting, but I don't expect much accuracy form the showrunners since black Romans and of Indian heritage Isaac Newton.
To over think your overthink, and admittedly doing no research whatsoever, there could be a sliver of logic to their insanity. Most mammalian species that took over and were successful rely on the pollenisation of plants. Ther herbivores and omnivores directly, and the predators rely on those two subsets to be able to succeed so they can then predate on them. Now its utterly ridiculous how its portrayed there, as this theory only works under the assumption that that singular butterfly was the genus for a whole species and killing it prevented that entire species from coming into be. But our agriculture is under threat due to the decline in bee populations for that very reason, so i can see where some blue haired fruitcake saw the bee thing and thought combining that with the whole 'butterfly effect' thing was utter genius. Of course they would they have the IQ of a lemon drizzle cake. So i can see where they got the idea, they just executed it like they were executing a POW. Rather than a good story.
BUT, what does it say about me when I found the girl more sexually attractive as a reptile than she was as a human.
It's a corny, blowing on something to life. Aggressively unoriginal writing. They want a magical realism Who. Alienating the fans.
The thing that ultimately drives evolution is usually mutations in the genes. (There are other methods too, but the biggest one is mutations). Stepping on a butterfly should have no effect. The whole line about stepping on a butterfly is meant to be taken figuratively that any little change could have ripple effects. It makes no sense literally and is not supposed to be taken as such.
Doctor Who needs to go away for a while. Another two or three decade break. Get some new people involved. It was getting bad even before Disney came in. They just have a budget now.
Jodie wasn't cool, but this guy, this guy is anti-cool. Which I think translates into pure, unadulterated cringe.
Ikr. He's so bad Jodie is actually no longer the worst Doctor. Never thought that would happen.

Why is the BBC and Hollywood soooo invested in this ideology?? I truly do not understand it. It destroyed Star Wars, Marvel, Disney and Dr. Who (along with countless other projects). Can someone just develop talent and good stories based on...well... talent and good writing?
I know Gatwa came to the UK from Rwanda, but he was six years old at the time. What the Hell is that accent of his, and why does it sound like it's being played at too many RPM's?
I contemplate at least three possibilities:
1. Affectation.
2. Identity affirmation (very fashionable these days, you know).
3. He's having a laugh making it deliberately hard for the audience to understand him.
In any case, I'm pretty sure that any acting training includes teaching you to do different accents. He may use any accent he prefers in real life, of course, but the characters he plays should...
Oh, never mind. I forgot self-insertion...

Russell T Davies went from one of best people to run a TV show way back in the 2000s to just "I'm bigger than every other talented writer and I can just write about whatever I feel like because Doctor Who is mine now and I want to shove preachiness down your throat because society is evil"
If that's not arrogance I don't know what is.
Wait… im no doctor who expert, but doesnt the butterfly thing break how the time travel works in doctor who?
I think there was never an episode where doctor changed something and it had an Impact on the future. Because otherwise Doctor would only have to pasively watch and dont touch anything… thats not how previous episodes looked like… there were few things he couldnt and shouldnt change but other than that id say doctor and their companion did much more changes that just stepping on one butterfly
Fixed points were a key part of the best RTD episodes in RTD's last era. Father's day, the Fires of Pompeii, the Waters of Mars. He's being inconsistent with his last era too.
Not excusing lazy writing but the Doctor alters the future many times. In "Pyramid of Mars" (1977) he shows Sarah-Jane the dead world of 1980 if he doesn't stop Sutekh. Episode available free on Tubi.
@@robertbrown3413 I didn't see all of doctor who and what I saw I don't remember very well, so there are definitely things in that world I have no idea about, but (and I have no idea why) the butterfly thing felt somehow odd for a doctor who show... maybe it was just that it was kind of "basic time travel cliché" that I didn't notice in the episodes I saw... maybe It was actually the lazy writing the caught be off guard not the time travel rules themselves
@@EL-ql2fc Pyramid of Mars does the cliché to great effect. The story possibly inspired Stargate. At the end a (model) stately home burns down and someone complained to the BBC that they set a real fire!

I'm pretty sure time travel in the doctor who universe works on more predestine (it was and so it will always be) rules so squishing a butterfly shouldn't really change anything since you would have always squashed that thing. You know fix points and the like.
It used to. Up to Capaldi any effect to change the past or influence the future was usually stopped or it was supposed to happen that way in the first place. I know they got rid of majority of the old writers so I think they changed it with Whitaker but I'm not sure.
@@kirbyfan4 And we had an example of what happens when you try and change a fixed point, Waters of Mars.

Am I the only one who thinks that a non-binary father is like colorful transparent object? It is one way or another. There is no in-between.
The word 'trans' itself means by definition to 'go from one thing to another' ie Transport, Transfer, Transition, Translate, etc and so on its a middle ground not an end point. This is why i dont play the pro noun game, language MATTERS! If i point at a dude with a beard in a dress im going to go 'him' if im pointing them out to someone, why? because who ever i am pointing it out to is likely to think i assume one of the actual women if i said 'her' and it confuses the matter and makes the act of getting your point across so much more difficult. Language exists to communicate our thoughts effectively and efficiently from our brains into someone elses via our mouths, ears and the medium of the language itself. Its like Driving from work to home, and declaring yourself to be the road in between, rather than being at home or at work, and they wonder why they struggle with identity, they dont understand what identity is to begin with it would seem.

In one of the Christmas specials when david tenat has recently regenerated he used the extra regeneration energy to regrow his hand and in another episode river song used her extra regeneration energy to heal the doctor from the poison she had given him. So there is precedence but it's still a bit out there to be pulling a Paul with the butterfly.
Butterfly Representation 2024 🎉
'Most of the Universe is not convinced'.......at least one line in this truly woeful show is scientifically correct.
The Boogeyman ending was like the hard opposite of Wild Blue Yonder.
In WBY I was bothered by the fact the Doctor never tried to find out what they were, or why they wanted to leave. He could have just offered them a lift or something.
Meanwhile in the Boogeyman, he refused to kill it despite knowing exactly what it is and why it does what it does.
They should've blown up the Space Baby ship as well.
I never watched Dr. Who. And now I'll never start. It's now Dr. What the fuck? to me.
So you're quite clueless as to what anyone is saying about the show. How about watching any episode and forming an opinion.
@@stevkyt2374 No, thanks. It's on Disney and I refuse giving them money.
@@Heathenpride83very sheep-like behaviour to go with the crowd and not form your own opinion. Right? Sheep?
@@whereami2477 And who might you be? Someone I happen to know? No. Besides, I'd rather turn off the tv and touch grass. I'm not the target audience and that's fine. I'll leave this series and the Doctor to someone who's into this crap. Cheers!
@@Heathenpride83 I'm fucking glad I don't know you lmao. And yeah, please do go touch grass. The show isn't for hateful, bigoted, raging morons who can't accept people for who they are. Cheers!
Yup. Feel like being able to magically bring dead things back to life would have had some useful implications in the last 60 years worth of shows.
Still apparently within the literal first 5 minutes of this new series they establish that death has no consequences. So there is no danger for anyone ever.
No it doesn't.
That butterfly was suicidal - and rightfully so!
If that butterfly was a white moth, he would have stomped it himself!
Maestro looks like an over the top villain from Lazy Town.
That’s a kid’s show, if anyone hasn’t heard of it.
Doctor Who died the day they went woke and changed the Doctor into a woman.
Doctor who has always been woke, like since the first doctors era. Also lazy town is beloved and maestro is one of the best Doctor Who villains in a hot minute. Not my fault Y'all are alergic to fun.
@@141414 no- doctor who has been a show with good writing, good stories and some fun along the way.
Being “woke” is when you over correct something to insert things that the people are tired of seeing.
Example: strong independent women who “need no man” and gives off girl boss vibes. Even women don’t like seeing that.
Lazy Town is an incredible show. One I will definitely let my kids watch.
I don’t need to see a mediocre drag queen play a villain in Doctor Who because the directors feel they think they know what’s best for the gay community.
I’m lgbt and I hate being pandered to. Doctor Who is dead. Just like everything the Woke crowd touch.
They did the butterfly joke again but worse? In season 3 when Martha asked 10 the same question he just said, "don't step on any butterflies then". It was a much better response and a lot funnier the way Tennant delivered it
I’m sorry, did Doctor Who pull a Doctor Strange with the musical notes?
The whole starting season one again is to make it harder to find on rotten tomatoes so people cant review it. I tried to find it, admittedly not very hard but for at least 45 seconds and I could not find it.
Last of The Time Lords? So the bi-generation stopped the David Tennant half being a Time Lord?
I don’t get this at all
The 'slangy' language started back before the JW version of the person playing the Doctor. Remember 'Ma Fam'? I remember when the Doctor belied his 'man out of time' aspect by using a broad range of vocabulary that didn't include 2020s colloquialisms. RTD is, was and will always be an over-hyped hack who's been riding the wave of his own self importance. I doubt that, had the BBC not had a thing for hiring 'regional talent' (notice how the RTD era was produced by BBC Wales, and Moffat shows were by BBC Scotland?) to show that they weren't just London-centric lefty 'dahlings', that he would've got the job in the first place. His gay agenda has been injected into the stories from the first season, albeit subtly at first, as was his 'Welshness agenda'.
Not hiding the homophobia there? Also... welshphobia? Huh?!
@@friendlyotaku9525 A phobia is a fear of something - nothing to fear here.
@@beachcomberbob3496 phobia is irrational hatred.
@@friendlyotaku9525 Straight from the NHS website (and multiple dictionaries) 'A phobia is an overwhelming and debilitating fear of an object, place, situation, feeling or animal.'
Your review of this show felt like a bad acid trip. Who is writing this? Who is 'okaying' the scripts!? Why am I paying towards it!? 😭🔫
I’ve been literally waiting for the Rings of Power Season 2 Trailer for one reason - to get a Johnny Law rant. Do we have one? Not that I’ve seen. Let’s go, bro. :)
Aw, sh*t, I had to revise my comment - you got sponsors. Congrats man (and sorry if you’ve had them awhile), your content deserves it.
I tried to watch it, but it was too painful...
Happy to see you get sponsors my boy. Great vid as always
This is past the time war they brought the time lords back only for the Master to nuke them behind the scenes and turn them into easy to defeat cyberlords
The title alone is gold 🤣
Dr No one watching us why.
The problem with New Doctor Who they changed it completely. Never mess with classic British fiction. That is why King Arthur/Merlin, Robin Hood, Sherlock Holmes and James Bond last for so long, keep the same formula which works. New Doctor Who is not imaginative writing, it is just silliness. Anyone can re-write classics like making King Arthur a Chinese pansexual , Camelot built in Tahlinquh Oklahoma, lives with his ballerina Knights of the enneagram table. Make Sherlock Holmes a human lizard addicted to musicals solving crimes in London Kiribati. Or Robin Hood an Irishman of the 1845 wearing a red riding hood stealing from the poor and giving his loot to John Jacob Astor. This is what New Doctor Who is like to long time Whovians.
Have you ever watched Doctor Who? Clesrly not.
@@friendlyotaku9525
I have watched Doctor Who since 1975 attended the Longlet England 20th anniversary which I won the 3 rd segment to the key to time. Attended many DOCTOR Who conventions around the world. You have never really watched Doctor Who,if you have you would see it is not a same show just bad writers using the TARDIS and Doctor Who for their own agenda. Musicals do not belong in SiFi Doctor Who never did in sixty years. The Devil’s Chord is NOT Doctor who
It is some other universe like E-space if you understand that.
@davidbrown9866 so you've never watched Doctor Who or you missed the entire point. And Doctor Who can do *anything*, there is no limits to it's storytelling. And Doctor Who has had an "agenda" since it began.

You’re missing the point. What really Doctor Who fans are trying to make sure the show they truly love does not get cancelled. We remember the 1980’s low ratings show gets cancelled. Some may like the new who but it is not Doctor Who the ratings are tanking. Like my first comment there is innovative and imaginative wringing but also silly writing which is this what this new who is. It could be way better
Also if the butterfly did come out of the tardis then letting it live would’ve changed it as because it wasn’t part of that timeline but from the original timeline.
I hear lots of people say "he's a gay actor" - but not many ever mention "he's a good actor" 🤔
He must've gone to Kamala Harris' School of Job Hunting
@@jeremyallen5974just admit you're a racist lowlife, it's quicker and easier
He's a fantastic actor!
This Doctor reminds of Dave Chappelle's "Same Hero, New Boots" character.
He saves people, but they never remember him.
"Because, dummy, he's gay.
He keeps changing his outfit."
The butterfly…is the dumbest thing. What about all the other times they walked outside the tardis and took part in history? This was a pathetic gag written by an incompetent writer who remembered the butterfly effect story in their college class and was like, “let’s use that!”
You didn't watch it did you? Its literally mentioned the Doctor forgot to turn on the butterfly compensation switch.
Ofc no one watched the episode. It's trash. A stupid unfunny gag "butterfly compensation switch" doesn't make it less trash. You're being unfriendly, and keep your filthy "otaku" hands off my anime so you don't ruin it also. You aren't helping anyone or anything by trying to defend this awful series.
I'm not disagreeing with your POV, but if I must be a pedantic Whovian: 2:10 The genocide the Doctor is referring to is when the Master destroyed all the Gallifreyans during 13's run (not the Time War). 5:18 And it's been shown that the Doctor (and other time lords) can use regeneration energy at will to heal things (like when River Song saved 11, and 11 healed River's hand).
This guy clearly doesn't watch the show.
There's nothing enigmatic or disputed about the Hard Day's Night chord. F triad add 9 over D.
It's basically a sus dominant leading to the home G (in the context of G Miixolydian, where the chords seesaw between G and F).
You trimmed and shaped the moustache! It looks good.
My family owns every season up until the Capaldi years. We STILL rewatch them. They were THAT good! It's sad that this series has gone so far off the rails that many of its fans consider it over. 😢
RTD's Doctor Who always sucked, the Beeb used to rein him in, that's the difference between then and now.
I'm fairly sure that previously in DW, it is established that the TARDIS emits an anti-paradox field (or something) so stepping on a butterfly would be similarly negated.
and the Doctor literally says he forgot to turn that on with the new console. It's almost as if basing your opinion off some rando online and not making your own causes you to miss out on the full picture?
Why would a character be speaking so happily about their past trauma? Why would they focus on such superficial benefits from an entire civilization being wiped out? And why is this front loaded in the first 5 minutes of meeting a new person? No one tells this much about themselves to a person they just met. And its painfully obvious they are doing this because they feel like they can't hold the audience's attention for the next five minutes. If the audience didn't want to watch they wouldn't watch it. Don't sacrifice story telling and character for a demographic that wasn't going to watch your story to begin with
Maybe if you watched the show you would know!
