'Doctor Who' viewership plummets after woke star tells viewers, 'Don't watch. Turn off the TV.'

Doctor Who has been completely destroyed by Russell T. Davies and Ncuti Gatwa. Davies is buckling down on making the show as queer as it possibly can get and his boy toy Gatwa is all too happy to ruin one of science fiction television's greatest heroes. Gatwa told the "haters" to not watch the show. Its first two proper episodes of the Gatwa era got less than a quarter of Matt Smith's first episode in 2010. So apparently "the homophobes" took Gatwa and Davies at their word.

#RIPDoctorWho now trends regularly on X/Twitter. All the original fans have packed up and left. They don't want to see hard left wokery not only kill the show but rape its corpse.

There might not be so vicious an example of liberalism destroying everything it touches at this moment in time than what "progressives" are doing to Doctor Who.

And the viewership of the two new Doctor Who episodes on Disney+ is said to be abysmal. Maybe only around 30,000 who tuned in.

I think the show should have ended after Tom Baker left.

[Organic Panic]

Happy to abide. Though I haven’t watched Dr. Who since it was on PBS decades ago with Tom Baker as the Dr. Use to watch it with my parents.

[Ge0ffrey]

It’s a show made by and for pederasts. One would assume that’s a narrow audience.

I heard it that it should be called “Nurse What” now.

[Agatsu77]

Been done with it for a while. Too bad, I used to love that show.

[The Louiswu]

After David Tennent and Matt Smith the show turned to crud.

[Reddy]

I don’t think there is enough room in a phone booth for “queer rights” to physically happen. Even though they do seem to be able pull it off in bathroom stalls?

Yuck.

So, Doctor “them/them/whatever” is doomed, eh?
Perhaps they should resurrect the next Doctor as a talking turd. And it can identify as a socialist.

The new series since 2005 had been pretty good, in large part. Ironically it was Davies who was the first showrunner of the modern era. Apart from one character being openly bisexual (Captain Jack Harkness) the first Davies era emphasized solid story and characters.

But that was almost 20 years ago. Davies left and the amazing Steven Moffat became showrunner, and with him came Matt Smith and then Peter Capaldi as the Doctor.

Then came the Chris Chibnall era which only lasted for the female Doctor (that wasn't even half of what went wrong on Chibnall's watch).

Now it's Davies again, and the man has changed. Has become a raging progressive waging war against the true Doctor Who fans who have watched the show since its original run 1963-1989. Ncuti Gatwa ticks off all the right D.E.I. boxes: homosexual, liberal, minority (I have no problem with a black man playing the Doctor so long as he properly respects the character and the show's history). It's also been strongly hinted that he was on Davies' casting couch if you know what I mean.

“ I think the show should have ended after Tom Baker left.”

It did, as far as I am concerned.

[BigFreakinToad]

I gave up on Dr Who after Matt Smith left. I did watch a few episodes with the female Dr.

[Ciaphas Cain]

The final words of the Twelftn Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi, before regenerating were "Doctor, I let you go."

Then he regenerated.

A lot of fans have said that the blinding white flash was the Doctor's real final moment and that the Jodie Whittacker/Ncuti Gatwa era is just a dream like Bobby Ewing in the shower.

Suicide by DEI.

The character is NOT gay. I like the show so far. It is fun again. On the watch for wokness, none yet. The Specials were VERY woke, not a fan of Tennant anyway, overated emo Doctor.

+1

[cowboyusa]

The show suck from the time Clara left. Pesbian Bill was unwatchable. The new Companion is one for the Dads

"F*** off, and let people be!"

You have to love the hypocrisy of Leftists - why can't they let people be and stop forcing upon them things they don't want?

They don't mind destroying things to make a point. Leave things and people alone!

[cowboyusa]

Did you even watch it?
