They should change the name of the show from Dr Who to Dr What!?

The beloved British series “Doctor Who” did not live up to ratings expectations after its star told viewers not to watch if they had a problem with the progressive messaging of the show. Its cast, former lead, and director have been promoting progressive ideologies recently, while the show’s viewership has been cut nearly in half.

Lead actor and Doctor Who character Ncuti Gatwa already had the second-worst premiere for a season of “Doctor Who” in December 2023’s Christmas special titled, “The Church on Ruby Road.” According to the BBC, the episode had 4.7 million viewers.

This, coupled with writer and executive producer Russell T. Davies insisting that he attempts to curtail “homophobia and transphobia” by presenting these themes to youth, did not yield positive results.

Gatwa’s episode, “Space Babies,” along with episode two, “The Devil’s Chord” significantly dropped off, losing almost half its viewership with just 2.6 million and 2.4 million viewers, respectively

Most successful TV shows eventually die due to either exhaustion or oddball departures from the show's defining characters, settings, and plot lines. Dr. Who seems to now be suffering from a soon to be lethal combination of both pathologies.

They lost me with the female doctor. I saw one episode with this guy and it was a train wreck.

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.

Thus spells the end of Doctor Who. (Get woke, go broke)

A previous doctor was a woman. (Jodie Whittaker) I guess this was done to please the trans community.

Never mind that in Doctor Who canon, there are female Time Lords, even in the reboot. (for example, Alex Kingston as River Song)

This could ruin his chances for playing woke, black, gay James Bond.

The way things are going, the real-life James Bonds are all woke, black, and gay.
