don’t you know a penis is required for time travel?

Not to nitpick, but there's a Japanese film that has a woman warrior go back in time, and didn't Gloria Reuben do the same in Time Cop?

Now that I think about it, I've come across examples in the 1950s radio shows (based on scifi pulp at the time). "The Old Die Rich" probably has a woman traveler, and there's another one that springs to mind with the plot of a couple escaping in time, and hunted down.

IF DW decides to shake things up this way, I wonder what the over/under is on the number of epis is to deem it a success, failure, or an avoidable suicide?

Nah, if it doesn't fly, they'll probably pull a "Dallas"...

For me, it seems wrong not to have a female doc. Their is an inherent randomness to the character's regeneration. I'd truly be appalled by a female Sherlock Holmes or babe James Bond - because those characters are the story, their maleness is inherent to the story, and they are set in stone. Changing them is telling a different story; and means the writer is just cashing in off of someone else's creativity - usually a good sign they lack their own. Probably will not turn out well.
