doctor who more like doctor who????
I stopped watching Dr Who after they made him female.
You misses little to nothing. I don't think that I've seen anyone, regardless of their taste, say that they liked more than three episodes of the last season. Hell, the best ones were either unintentional comedies (The Witchfinders and arguably It Takes You Away), barely Doctor Who (Demonds of the Punjab, or if you liked it, Rosa), or good only because they would've been average episodes in any older season (Resolution or Kerblam!). As for the others, they're just Chibnall's episodes, which are only good if you can learn to deliberately ignore the specific flaws that are usually in his writing (e.g. exposition dumps).
no one would watch this show if there were no high-profile guest stars. Female doctor is not able to have an episode on her on
Say. The. Words.
I miss Moffat. I honestly do.
Can you imagine her attempting Heaven Sent?
Capaldi. Is. Better.
the last episode of DW i watched was the one where 12 goes to the underwater town and finds a weird ship with something written on it
can i watch heaven sent without feeling lost?
I don't think tennant or smith could have carried it either tbqh, eccleston and capaldi are much better actors.
yeah, you could watch the episode before as it leads into it, or you could read this spoiler and not bother clara gets herself killed and he's mad as fuck about it
So the show is still a gayfest. Glad I bailed out.
how did she die?
I smell desperation if they're getting him on. The numbers for this "new" series must really be tanking.
by trying to be too clever and getting reckless, like the doctor. you might as well just watch the episode, it's not terrible, except it has maisie williams in it.
>The Doctah appul bobban for 4 billion years
Something about a crow but i don't entirely remember the episode.
Still, you can watch heaven sent, it's honestly one of the best nu who eps and it's pretty much standalone.
most likely he threatened to come clean about his secrets and others and they hushed him up with a nice guest spot to buy some time
Watch Face The Raven first, just because you can.
What secrets?
Don't we already have the numbers?
ok thanks, i will watch them
i know heaven sent has something to do with gallifrey, and the time lords are my favourite part of the series
i just hope they don't act like retards like they ususally do
Say good evening to your next Doctor and companion.
Why do I know that boy?
yeah so i mean i guess we could just pretend capaldi ended up dying from holding off his regen in the tardis. show cuts off after we see his dead corpse on the floor
Because you're a boy buggerer.
anyone got the pasta of this kid coming out to his parents?
the one where Fry turns up and says 'GOOD EVENING GOOD EVENING GOOD EVENING'.
it's Harry Potter
you see
I don't get it.
>3 hours in
>no one has posted the sweaty cock copypasta
your losing it Yea Forums
>Don't we already have the numbers?
yeah, but some autists still like to pretend nobody watched it and it's getting cancelled any day now.
Dad, I'm Gay
>We know son, we've always known
I have a boyfriend and... we're going to get married
>Ok... Can we meet him?
Yes, here he is...
>Oh my... it's Stephen Fry!
Good evening, good evening, good evening! I fuck your son's face with my fat sweaty cock. Quite interesting, yes.
>just a few more decades of being sodomised by this bloated, wheezing pink lump and I get his fortune
If Who is know a female shouldn't it be Nurse Who?
Something something I'd rather watch a Flash animated horse called Dr. Whooves than a fucking woman.
>Attempted suicide numerous times
>obese
>Doesnt do anal, only frots and thats probably rare
I would probably marry him too desu, said so in public to normies as well for these reasons and they looked at me like I was the monster.
I just want to go off on a tangent in this thread in regards to Stephen Fry. I just wanted to exclaim how shit QI has become since he left.
I've not watched a single episode since he left. Actually, I've not watched an episode from the season where he left either. Did it really get that bad?
honestly a long time ago i read something about discorded dr whooves and it looked way more interesting than 13
So now they have a grand total of two competent actors to subject their awful script and direction to?
Mum, dad, I'm Gay
>We know son, we've always known
I have a boyfriend and... we're going to get married
>Ok, Can we meet him?
Yes, here he is, it's giant, bloated, sweaty, fat and heaving 57 year old Stephen Fry
>Oh... god... Stephen Fry... ugh
Good evening, good evening, good evening, I fuck your sons face with my sweaty cock
>Actually, I've not watched an episode from the season where he left either. Did it really get that bad?
it really felt like he was phoning it in the last few years, I stopped watching it regularly while he was still there too, watched a few of the newer ones recently and sandi is fine as the host, but same as ever the episodes really rise and fall depending on the lineup of guests.
Before Jdoie's first episode, I used to post jokes about how I'd rather ask /mlp/ for their Doctor Whooves fan fic than watch a fucking woman. Sadly, by the end of her season it stopped being a joke. I really would rather be reading fan fic than watch her.
Yeah I can't quite explain what it is exactly but a few issues are obvious; namely, Toksvig's wit and sharpness is very poor compared to Fry's and reactions to panelist comments are incredibly repetative and unfunny. Also the relationship between Alan and Sandy is mediocre, part of what made the show successful was the back and forth between Alan and Stephen, and Stephens jabs and jokes at Alans expense were funny and witty. With Alan and Sandy you don't see the same connection.
Also there is a political agenda apparent, Sandy is the leader of political party called the Women's Equality Party which is the typical bleeding heart liberal female supremacy type of movement. Even though Stephen Fry was liberal he wasn't this bad headed feminist SJW type of liberal he was more of an intellectual freedom of thought and speech type liberal and is against the cult of Political Correctness inhibiting honest expression. Anyway I'm digressing, the main thing that bothers me is the amount of 'empowered women' stories they drag up in the show instead of just apolitical quite interesting facts before. Another thing excacerbating this feeling of political leaning to the show is that BBC regulations demand that there must be atleast 1 female on the panel of guests in every episode and often there are more than 1 female. And its not the classic female comedians that actually have some substance from the show in the past. It is often a majority panel of the typical cookiee-cutter tier female comedians who can only joke about their vaginas or spew sjw propaganda in the guise of a joke.
In conclusion the show has lost the feeling of purely intending to be quite interesting, and has become generic and mediocre due to the mediocre minds performing and presenting the show with a dash of cretinous and superificial girl power propaganda.
can't tell if mysterious neck acne or if the boytoy can't shave properly
They have to go to Z though
>women ruin everything reeeee
based tbqh. but seriously yeah, a lot of the token female guests are shit, but there's nothing wrong with sandi.
Sandi’s main crime is not being quite interesting enough.
Definitely shave. Look near his lips.
>sandi is a bad QI host because muh politics
fuck off faggot
She's also unfunny, and can't match the wit of Fry.
why do people pretend to like this Dr who shit?
is it just to virtue signal that you are such a le nerdy geek
who would have though, anyone replacing fry after all these years would look like a cheap imitation.
If the show was here in america it would still shamble on for another 20 seasons
i shudder whenever reminded of him
Reminds me of Top Gear. You watched it more for the chemistry than the content.
>Female doctor is not able to have an episode on her on
A female Doctor COULD, Jodie can´t. At least not with those scripts. Chib really should just leave and take his team with him (they are mostly political writters and non has experience in sci fi). I really have no problem with some of the political ideas per se but rather with the terrible writting that presents those ideas with a total lack of subtlety and in the most patronising and condescending way possible... i could let pass that kind of shit if the show was fun since i would just focus on the plot and the characters or whatever. I think a lot of people would watch it despite of that but come on i won´t watch the show BECASUE of political standing. That´s just retarded.
>Dr who
Do children even buy the toys? This is a children's show, no?
Right yeah, Top Gear is very similar. Two shows very reliant on the dynamic of the regular presentors.
>losing 40% of your audience over the course of a season
OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NON NO N
Sandi's alright as a host but she doesn't have the schoolteacher vibe that Fry did.
Also all of the female guest comedians they bring in are dogshit, especially that faggot with the puppet.
The issue with the latest season, even more than the boring scripts, is that whoever if behind the chair is either directing Jodie to be some chimera or Tennant and Smith, or isn’t stopping her from becoming one.
The whole advantage of the regeneration is that each actor can be their own interpretation of the character, rather than trying and failing to be someone else.
which ones aren't? i like aisling and roisin
Oh god if that one with the puppet is on the whole episode is a write-off.
roisin is only really good on 8 out of 10 cats because she's a fucking retard
>massive spike for the new doctor's first episode
>drops back off to the core audience after the hype fades
happens every time, stop being a spastic.
If Doctor Who was Stephen Fry I still wouldn't watch that trash
I reckon Hugh Laurie would have made a brilliant Doctor.
Any of the blackadder cast could have nailed it
Are they still alive?
Who cares about a white fucking male?
FUCK FUCK FUCK QI WAS THE PERFECT SHOW IT WAS COMFY AND FUNNY AND INFORMATIVE AND LIGHT ENTERTAINMENT BUT WOMEN RUINED IT NOT JUST THAT DUTCH LESBIAN BUT ALL OF THEM IT'S NOT FAIR FUCK YOU STEVEN YOU BIG FAGGOT BOY FUCKER WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME IN THE COLD COME BACK PLEASE GOD
Arrr, you ain't wrong there, m'laddie!!
Seeing as this has become a QI thread
>Dream panel (pick 3 because Alan's always a given)
>Hard mode: pick at least 1 woman
>Worst panel (again, 3 people)
>Hard mode: pick no women.
I thought he was dead
worst picks itself with or without women, john sessions, rory mcgrath and gyles brandreth.
I can't decide so I'm just gonna list the absolute best guests that I wish just made up the show
>Sean Lock
>Bill Bailey
>Phill Jupitus
>Rob Brydon
>David Mitchell
>Johnny Vegas
>Jimmy Carr
>Lee Mack
>Jeremy Clarkson
>the priest guy
>Rich Hall
>Sandi Toksvig (as a guest)
>Dara O'Briain
>Andy Hamilton
funny that the only female that immediately comes to mind is a lesbian
Dream Panel: Sean Locke, David Mitchell, Clive Anderson
Hard Mode: Sean Locke, David Mitchell and Sally Phillips (because at least she's a hot milf)
Worst Panel: Sarah Millicen, Holly Walsh, Susan Calman, Katherine Ryan, Sara Pascoe (all these are pretty interchangeable)
Hard mode (no women): Ross Noble, Josh Widdicombe, The Rev. Richard Coles
seriously how can one guest be so based?
Didn't Stephen call Doctor Who the equivalent of chicken nuggets?
>this faggot asked for all of the questions beforehand so that he'd look smart
dont forget to blame the jews that push all this propaganda and also make it happen
>QI
what the fuck is QI?
Panurus biarmicus
Does anyone have the link to that website with rips of a shit ton of panel shows? I lost the link and can't remember what it was.
I always thought it was Jimmy Carr that did that. McGrath (along with Sessions and Clive Anderson) just seem like smug know-it-all twats anyway but it felt like Carr sometimes had ridiculously specific knowledge about some of the shows he was on.
I havent watched since Smith Doc but I feel they should've gotten Rupert Grint
Because Doc always wanted to be a Ginger
Hahaha yes now Dr WHO? AS IN WHO IS HE IVE NEVER HEARD OF HIM HAHAHAHAH
I think I only really realised how bad it was when I heard the Unicorn and the Wasp reference in Kerblam and had the sudden urge to download and watch that instead. It's not even one of Tennant's stronger episodes and yet I was more excited by the prospect of reliving that episode than I was in seeing the resolution to the brand new episode I was currently watching. Even during the absolute worst of Capaldi's era I never felt that.
I can't see him pulling off a Doctor's personality. I'd rather the memes be real and we get Kris Marshal.
Hugh Laurie as the Doctor when?
>meme kris marshall into the job
no

>You're going bald.
Every time. This guy is a comedic timing genius.
Christ, Rory McGrath is fucking insufferable.
>Can I just give you the Latin name of this animal?
What an utter tool. Him and John Sessions always treat it like fucking University Challenge.
Moffat was a fuck up but the stuff he botched usually had some interesting backing to it.
Chibnall just makes me fall asleep.
Are you an Australian aged 19 - 25?
He hosted a show where he'd make a few jokes or tell a fact before the next afternoon cartoon started. Can't remember what the segmants were called but anyway he's Fry's gay twink now.
Nope, Brit.
Huh. well not sure if he was on air over there but let me tell you, knowing that funny little jokester from my childhood have been teabagged by Stephen fucking Fry ruined all of those memories.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Don't you think she looks tired?
While i agree she should not play it as Tennant that i think is consecuence of many people not liking Capaldi´s rendition. Heck Capaldi himself had to switch from grumpy old man to cool uncle because of this. That was not the only related issue to that subject either since once The Doctor reaches Gallifrey he essentially closes his arc. He goes full circle and that character arc is basically replaced with nothing.
Still while that stuff is certainly an issue i think most fans could have gave that a pass for one season while the new Doctor tries to figure stuff out. Every Doctor feels weird at first while the actor tries to find a spin to the character and because the viewer is acostumed to the previous actor.
The problem is that with the episodes we got that did not happen either. You need a decent season arc or at least interesting episodes that push the new Doctor to action because action reveals character. That´s scripting 101.
What we got however where episodes to adress social issues where some times the Doctor did not take action at all (thus not giving Jodie the oportunity to find some interesting spin to the character. Lots of interesting stuff they could do with a female Doctor if they wanted to) or where instead of the Doctor looking intelligent she would just express political opinions (so a leftie self insert for political writters that think they understand some hidden truth about life).
>Can write pretty well
>Will never get the chance to do my story arcs for two seperate Doctors
I know it might be cringey, but there's so much I'd do if given the chance.
Jodie wasnt the problem it was fucking talentless hack know as Chibnall
We know.
stewart lee
DIDN'T WATCH LOL
"Bring back Eccleston"?
