It was inevitable that when Disney took over the venerable British sci-fi show, it would use it to advance the LGBTQ+ agenda.
In 1963, the BBC debuted Dr. Who, a show about an earth-friendly alien who zooms around time and space in his “Tardis,” a spaceship disguised as a 1960s-era police callbox. In every episode, he has exciting adventures with his female sidekick and often saves mankind from bad aliens. The original show was retired in 1983, only to be rebooted in 2005. Along the way, the Doctor periodically “regenerated,” allowing new actors to replace the old ones. The latest regeneration is a woke, black, gay guy. When audiences felt he failed in Dr. Who-ness, he told them not to watch...and it appears that 50% of them promptly turned off their sets.
Dr. Who has always been a leftist show because it’s a BBC production. It routinely castigates Christianity, capitalism, and guns (although it’s perfectly willing to have the good guys take up arms and kill in defense of saving England). However, of late, the show decided to take a dive into the sexual aspect of cultural Marxism. When one of the most popular Dr. Who actors returned to the show for a 60th anniversary special, the BBC inserted transgenderism into the plot:
Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary special clarifies the pronouns of the Doctor after Jodie Whittaker’s regeneration. After being called out for assuming the creature’s pronouns, the Doctor asks Beep the Meep what pronouns to use. The Meep says that, rather than using pronouns, the Meep uses the definite article in conjunction with the creature’s name. The Doctor says, “I do that too,” providing a definitive answer to how the Doctor uses labels after regenerating as both a masculine-presenting and feminine-presenting Time Lord.

Was there any audience left after Jodie Whittaker?
Scariest thing in the article is the lunacy of this guy saying the “world is darkening” and we’re moving into dark times for gays!
The brainwashing these leftists engage in is incredible.
Yeah, she was a horrible Doctor.
Ha
My wife liked David Tennant. To me it looked like all he ever did was run around shouting a lot, but I’ve never been all that interested in Doctor Who anyway. I usually read something while it’s on.
No kidding. I tried to watch the first few episodes with her, but I couldn't do it. The new, woke writers made her incredibly annoying. Episode 3 was about Rosa Parks. Racism is bad, get it? That was it. I was done.
I can take a little dose of the message if the episodes are fun or interesting. Seasons 10 to 13 were drudgery. Just boring to watch.
They did that to 24. It was too pro-America.
Season 8 they brought in Janeane Garofalo.
They broke it. Disney broke it. Right up their own a$$.
Capaldi, on second and third watch, was excellent. His storylines were not always strong, but the shows were some of the best of the entire series.
Well, that sucks.
Clara eas great, Bill was unwatchable.
Yes it does, because blow is a euphemism.
Next will be James Bond. Apparently Idris Elba was up for the part but there was so much backlash that a White actor was found. This is temporary. A black Bond is coming.
The McCoy episodes were some of the weirdest ever.
Like you, I couldn’t watch past the halfway mark. I don’t get the appeal but I’m 73.
Disney got lots of money from parents who feel so ially obliged to take their kids to the Disney money raking, woke, boring parks, hotels, and restaurants. Stick a fork in Disney.
Take the kids hiking, camping, seeing REAL animals, and experience Real Danger out in the wild. Go to JPL, Cape Canaveral, everglades, Grand Canyon...etc..
I’ve tried watching this a few times, years ago. It is so stupid.
One of the promos showed “Shooty’s” Doctor dancing in a tutu.
