I like Tennant and dislike Ncuti. So there.

Tennant's Doctor need to be retired and never come back because all RTD is doing is using him to wank himself into dust

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that the character shows up at the end of the most recent special after 13 regenerates, and then 14 and 15 are going to be around for the next special, and then 15 is going to be the main primary doctor once it gets into an actual season?

So - apart from anything else - how do you know that RTD is "using him to wank himself into dust" if you haven't seen any of the actual appearances of the character yet?

Because why even bring back Ten if not for wankery

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-23 10:30 pm (UTC)(link)
Why bring back doctors ever? It's not like multi-doctor stories are a new concept in Who

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-23 10:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay but those are crossover episodes, not. "Ten is also the new regeneration."

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-23 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
OK but does that really make that much of a difference?

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-23 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes???

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
Why is it different?

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Uh...yeah??? !

Why is bringing Ten back nothing but wankery, whereas other multi-doctor episodes are acceptable?

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
Because he's not actually supposed to be 10. He's supposed to be 14. It's not bringing back 10, like the crossover episodes. It's trying to sneak in an ostrich by claiming it's a smoothy.

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
This. It's Ten But Also Fourteen. That's what's so egregious.

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
I honestly don't understand what the problem with this is. To me it feels like it's basically just a slight re-arrangement of previous versions of multi-doctor stories. I don't know whether they'll use it to tell a good story or a bad story but I really don't see what the fuss is - OK, so he's 14 with the face of 10, it's a different concept, so what? And I'm really curious why it's so intrinsically bad.

Re: Doctor Who

(Anonymous) 2022-10-24 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Meh. At this point I don't even care as long as it has better writing.

Re: Doctor Who

You sound like you don't understand the difference between Watsonian and Doylist perspectives (or in-universe and behind-the-scenes perspectives, if you prefer). From a Doylist perspective, them bringing back Tennant and calling him 14 was done for audience popularity. If he's not really going to be back on the show for very long, in-universe it doesn't really matter what number he is. Fans care about the number. The characters don't.

From a Watsonian perspective, the characters don't know the difference and it doesn't matter, sure. From a Doylist perspective, it's annoying and fanservicey as FUCK.

This

Is bringing 10 back a wank? Yes

Is bringing RTD back a wank? Yes

Do I care? No

It's no surprise that Tennant was coming back. New images of the Doctor-Donna have been out for months. It'll be a few specials for the 60th before a new season proper. 10 is not my favourite Doctor, and I'd be just as happy if he never returned, but I think the specials could be a lot of fun. Something very lacking for me the past few years of the show.

And?
