Yes it is.


Disney added extra Producers
but was backing the BBC as they knew it as a success
when they first started

Him being a proud a Gay Actor

tbh this is more a BBC problem, than a Disney problem


considering most content with Hulu for example, for Disney have been more successes, such as Under the Bridge, Only Murders in the Building, Tracker



and also going deep for the 9-1-1 franchise, by also including its spin-off 9-1-1: Nashville to the streaming service more recently



wish they'd use the money they save from not spending on doctor who, on a deal with AMC for the partial rights of The Walking Dead spin-offs, considering they already got the main series in full on the streaming service

or to pick up Smallville (considering it has been on Hulu for a long while and via that on disney+ in the US) considering it was let go by HBO Max, would be a good move for those who enjoy the nostalgia shows (like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel are also on Disney+)

I'm talking about the current form at the BBC.

So yes my opinion still holds.

Without watching the episodes, that would be my guess.

Just to add, the Jodie Whittaker era was when I quit watching Doctor Who, easily my least favourite writing that I've seen from the Show came from that era.

Tbf, the Show went well past being an educational programme when enemies like the Daleks and the Cybermen became prominent in the franchise.

If anything Chibnall's era tried to bring the educational side back into the franchise, but it was just boring.

Minus the Witch Trials episode, I actually didn't mind that one.

So woke means to be racist and homophobic and misogynistic.

When LT posts that something is ‘woke’ he is being racist, homophobic and misogynistic.
