Hmm. That's true. I haven't seen much of Old Who, and Simm's Master at least seemed to very much play it in the "I like to be in charge" sense, so that's what I assumed it was. LIke, the Doctor picked Doctor because he's a healer and the Master picked the Master because he has power issues.

[(Anonymous)]

He's not a healer, at all! He picked it because he's a science professor, like a doctorate. It was originally a educational show and the name stuck. And him not being at all a medical doctor is a running joke.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but it has still very much developed into a thematic/symbolic thing. Not an actual Doctor but a metaphorical one. No one gives a shit what the ideas were at the beginning of the show in 1963 -- that's what makes this show so great.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not much of a Who fan--just watched Old Who on PBS when I was in my teens and early 20s--so I always figured the Master was called the Master because he'd finished his master's thesis, but never completed his doctoral dissertation. And he hated the Doctor because the Doctor had.

That... is amazing.

I knew a lot of bitter grad students.

That's bloody brilliant.
