420Although with the advent of Disney, new opportunities may open up 🙂
However, I do not know how to react to bi-regeneration. Unfortunately, I haven't seen a Doctor in the new Doctor yet, he's too original, but let's see. This division turned out to be a strange move, as if they just decided to bring Tennant back for ratings, did not know how to bring him out later, and came up with something like that. Of course, I am glad for his "retirement" with a real family, and the Chalk was returned here, but...it turns out that he really wanted to leave everything behind, but he couldn't. And then one part of him decided to completely let go of his past, and the second, so carefree and hyper-joyful, went on to save the universes. Something fabulous and incomprehensible, but thank you for bringing Donna and their duo back to us for at least a couple of pleasant episodes.
Two TARDIS and two Doctors is generally like something contrary to the laws, however, after last seasons we all know that the canons of Doctor Who seem to be still being written and will be written the way the screenwriters want) Maybe Tennant's Doctor will still save the new Doctor's ass, who knows, it will be a good move for the future.
I remember how I used to literally cry at regenerations...I saw more comical things here. It's not bad, it's simple...otherwise.
The funny thing is that they literally shared: one doctor left his pants, the second took his sneakers:D
But I'm glad that they beat me quite unexpectedly with this budding, otherwise death from such a shot would have looked like just "for show", because a new actor needs to be introduced.
I quote RTD below:
"Bigeneration, we discover, is an ancient myth of the Time Lords where instead of a new body taking over from the old body, the new body separates from the old body and both are left alive."
"a whole timeline bigenerated"
"I think all of the Doctors came back to life with their individual TARDISes, the gift of the Toymaker, and they're all out there travelling round in what I'm calling a Doctor verse."
"Sylvester McCoy woke up in a drawer, in a morgue, in San Francisco… and Jon Pertwee woke up on the floor of the laboratory,"
And this is a quote from the Seventh of the new spin-off Tales of the TARDIS, which is also produced by the RTD team "Time streams are funny things. In some, I regenerate. In others, I don't. It's all a matter of perspective."
BUT, as with Chibnell's "Temporary Child", which opened the door for endless regenerations of the Doctor without having to beg for a new cycle of regenerations from Timelords every 50 years and for new unknown faces of the Doctor before the First, Davis's "bi-generation" in this slightly drug-addicted explanation with different timelines also opened the door for somewhat is important is that now in the future the aged versions of the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Tenth, Eleventh, Thirteenth, of course the Fourteenth and all subsequent Doctors will be able to appear in the series as "fragmented" aged versions of themselves from parallel timelines, and not as holograms /projections of consciousness and so on.
Although it would be better if Russell still did not talk about this view of bi-generation in an interview and would just suddenly return in one of the following seasons such a "fragmented" aged Doctor. It would be a cool surprise, the basis of which would have been laid in advance in the anniversary specials in honor of the 60th anniversary of the series. And after meeting with some of the older "fragmented" Doctors from parallel timelines, viewers would speculate about whether the same thing is possible with other Doctor's faces or there is only one parallel timeline.
And now this "the whole timeline of the Doctor has been generated" feels a little like an unnecessary retcon at this particular moment, revealed purely for the purpose of strigger those who scream and cry at every sneeze that the Doctor Who series is being destroyed.
I still tend to treat bigeneration the same way, but with a little less negativity and RTD is still not an asshole. But regeneration has been completely turned into a circus and they no longer cause any emotions except nervous laughter. They lived to see it
gt;it's only in new school that they made a superdramatic event out of it
To be fair, the vast majority (about 84%) only watched new school. On MyShows, classics has 23340 viewers, and newschool has 149502
(Newnewschool has 4175 so far, but I think when the finals are over and the episodes begin, people will catch up)
And secondly, what does angst and drama have to do with it? Did I say a word about that? The emotional spectrum is much wider. And by the way, the "superdramatic event" in new school was only the regeneration of the same 10th, and I can't stand it. Well, the 12th has caught up with a little more theatrics. The 9th generally left with a smile (my favorite regenerations are just his and the 11th).
First of all, I am not satisfied with the violation of the internal logic and physics of the series. Why the fuck did the clothes regenerate with the Doctor from the 13th to the 14th? Although this has never happened, and even in exactly the same series during forced regeneration, this was not observed? And twice!
Why the fuck did the clothes go through the clothes and split during the current budding? The meta-crisis 10th quite logically grew out of the hand naked, so here the clothes should have torn and the two of them would have stood naked, even if they had brought unit clothes.
With a show-off, we had never seen him in it before =3
Also, the First regenerated into the Second in new clothes.
RTD has already explained why Jody regenerated along with her clothes, there is nothing to discuss here, everything has already been forgotten and forgotten.
gt; What the hell happened during the current budding, the clothes went through the clothes and separated
What the hell are sand monsters out of your eyes for? What the fuck is the moon doing with this egg? Why the fuck is the Statue of Liberty a crying angel?
You can go on like this all day, Doctor Who has always been and will sometimes be illogical in places. You either have to put up with this, or not look at it at all, but you just don't have to say that this didn't happen before, it would have happened more than once.
Well, you should at least quote or tell me where to find it, otherwise I obviously missed it, since I'm asking this question. And, of course, you are strong, you can speak for everyone at once = 3
(P.S. if you have to explain something not in the series, but outside of it, this already says a lot)
"What the hell are sand monsters out of your eyes for? What the fuck is the moon doing with this egg? Why the fuck is the Statue of Liberty a crying angel? You can go on like this all day."
You can't. My question concerns the violation of basic physics, which the series did not so brazenly bolt on without explanation before. It's as if people on Earth in the series suddenly started jumping 10 meters up out of the blue and no one would pay attention to it or explain it in any way. And you're just exaggerating and trying to give an example of the plot-forming elements of the series that have their nominal explanations (it doesn't matter if they're good or bad, but they are). It's not the same thing.
"I immediately confidently decided that I did not want David to wear a Jody suit during regeneration. It seems to me that the theme of men dressing up in "women's clothes" — the theme of drag — is very delicate. I am a big fan of this culture and I really appreciate the dignity inherent in it. But it should be done with great intelligence and respect. And, with all due respect to Jody and her Doctor, it seems to me that if a heterosexual man wears her clothes, it might look like a mockery. If you dress up a tall Scotsman in her costume, it may seem like a mockery. And I guarantee you that some newspapers would print only this frame indefinitely. If they could play the topic of gender sarcastically or critically, they would do it. We could have dressed the Doctor up as a knight, or a god, or William Hartnell, but only a photograph of David in what is considered women's clothing would have reached print. And then it would turn into a weapon — as a mockery of feminine features, of drag, of this culture. And I decided that this was not going to happen. Knowing that David would appear after regeneration, I firmly decided that clothes should regenerate. And nothing would have changed my mind."
I am not exaggerating anything, I have given examples that have not been sufficiently explained. The series periodically put a bolt on different things, now, as they say, they put a bolt on regeneration, although I do not agree with this.
And as for bigeneration, it seems to me that it is too early to draw any conclusions, maybe some answers will be given during the season, besides, there are already some rumors on this topic.
Thank you! There will be something to see for the New Year holidays :)
Immensely grateful!
- David Tennant as the Fourteenth (1 month)
- Peter Capaldi (3 years 2 months)
- John Hurt (1 day)
- Matt Smith (3 years 8 months)
- David Tennant as the Tenth (4 years and 1 week)
- Christopher Eccleston (4 months old)
- Paul McGann (1 day)
- Sylvester McCoy (2 years 3 months)
- Colin Baker (2 years 8 months)
- Peter Davison (2 years 2 months)
- Patrick Troughton (2 years 7 months)
- William Hartnell (2 years 11 months)
Only Tom Baker and, with a stretch, John Pertwee were in the role of the Doctor for so long that "a generation grew up"
I understand what you mean - the Thirteenth had short seasons (10, 10 and 6 episodes due to the removal of Capaldi, who has 3 seasons of 12, or with Tennant and Smith, who have 3 seasons of 13) and there are also fewer special editions, and the breaks are long because of the coronovirus. I would also like more Jody, and unfortunately Jokey's seasons will also be small (in the first and second seasons there will be only 8 episodes each)
But you are still wrong about the "couple of years"
Hype)
, but on the stage of a family dinner I cried, of course
just here, as we see, no one is offended by the fact that a black man walks in his underpants in front of everyone, but a tennat in uni sex clothes would offend. okay.
in general, the plot with the toyboy is very cool, a pleasant series, except for the end, which came out very contradictory.
But as for the scenario move, to be honest, it's a mess in my head, I don't know what I feel at all. I knew about double regeneration, and in principle I liked how it all looked (the moments between David and Jokey just hit the heart, ESPECIALLY when the 15th calmed and hugged the 14th). I like that David was given the opportunity to return to the series, technically anytime, that Donna wasn't killed, that he now has a family. And from the point of view of rebooting the universe, it is also clear why they did what they did (even the second TARDIS!). But in general it looked somehow... Is it too short, or what? I don't know how to explain it myself, I need to think about it.
Another of the advantages of the series is Neil Patrick Harris, who fits in perfectly, and a huge number of mentions of previous satellites and companions, events, places that happened to previous versions of the Doctor (special thanks for mentioning River, she screamed!!!)
In short, I have no doubt about Joking at all, and in anticipation of all the episodes with him, and let's see where the plot leads us in the end
P.S. Manicured nails that took a Toyboy's tooth - a hint of a new Master?
I want to tie it somehow to the fact that it was necessary to return Donna's memory, but uh, it seems to me that I'm already looking for loopholes
So by the "Chuckle" there were almost no people left who could react unpleasantly to the fact that the actress stood for a while in this episode and looked like
In general, Wild Blue Yonder is the best of the 3 specials, but this is not at all the level of the anniversary episodes of kmk.
I want a spinnoff in short, where the 14 Doctor meets 10 and they hang out together in the Tardis.
Okay, from the good news: I'm delighted with the picture. They're using this Disney budget to the fullest! It's massive, but it looks very authentic!!!
Neil Patrick Harris was a wonderful solution. This mix of German and English, emotions, movements, he's amazing!! the dance was just KILLER, the vibe of the Master, but better)
the dolls are creepy, all the time I was thinking about Billy from the Saw and about Chucky. in general, they decided to focus on horror movies in recent episodes, and I like it!!!
Jokey is amazing, I didn't expect to see him so early, but I enjoyed every second (thanks for not giving him pants). They are such a contrast, it's a hug and a kiss on the forehead, I died of sweetness, by the
way, I got sneakers when I separated. I wonder if this is a metaphor that Tennant won't need them anymore, or just an accident?...
All in all, the series is amazing again. at the beginning it seems to be delayed, but then everything makes sense very quickly. I hope that soon we will find out the answers to all questions. 8/10 for the misunderstandings with bi-regeneration, but I hope RTD is hatching some kind of plan and we'll get back to it
The first option is that the 14th Doctor is now needed for some kind of spin-off, because RTD promised to expand the universe, and then during the regeneration of the Fifteenth, he can merge back into one with him, as the Observer merged with the Fourth to regenerate into the Fifth.
The second option was thrown up in the comments above and I like it more - the Fourteenth one will someday regenerate into the Curator we saw in "The Day of the Doctor". This can also be summed up by the Curator's words to the Eleventh after [I never forget faces] - "and soon you will meet/visit some old acquaintances", and after that the Twelfth has the face of Cecilia, and the Fourteenth has the face of the Tenth, and the Curator himself has the face of the Fourth (and later the voice of the Sixth). It is possible that even Valeyard is one of the regenerations of THIS branch of the Doctor, somewhere between the Fourteenth and the Curator.
And also from the fun, if one day one of the future writers of the series wants to rewrite the events of "The Judoon Fugitive", "Temporary Children" and "Stream" a little, then now Dr. Ruth may be one of the subsequent regenerations of the Fourteenth, this would explain the presence of her TARDIS in the form of a policeman booths despite the fact that she was supposed to be before Hartnell according to Chibnell's idea, and the problems with the fact that she does not remember how she was Thirteenth and was in the Division can be explained by some kind of timey-vimey.
P.S. Anyway, I think it was done for Tennant. Now he has formally remained a Doctor forever. And if he has another argument with Mayel Shin like "I'm a Doctor!"-"Not anymore!", David will be able to say "Suck it."
Here I tried to depict the canons of the new timeline. It turns out that we have a main timeline where there is an actual Doctor + all the past ones before their regenerations and the Doctors' answers after regeneration. That is, each Doctor now has a version from the main timeline and a fragmented version, but Tennant has as many as 5 versions: the main Tenth, metacrisis, fragmented Tenth, Main Fourteenth and fragmented Fourteenth. Let them shoot a new version of the Five Doctors where all the Doctors are Tennant.
"a whole timeline bigenerated".
"I think all of the Doctors came back to life with their individual TARDISes, the gift of the Toymaker, and they're all out there travelling round in what I'm calling a Doctor verse."
"Sylvester McCoy woke up in a drawer, in a morgue, in San Francisco… and Jon Pertwee woke up on the floor of the laboratory"
about Michael to the point, I think about that video from the first series of special releases ahaha
I like fan theories linking bigeneration to the Curator more.
So for myself personally (headcannon) I prefer to consider Tennant's bigeneration/Gatva was something unique, inconsistencies with the Second and Jamie are "season 6B", and "Stories from the TARDIS" is not a canon, but just a pleasant gift for fans of classics. At least until the "splinter" Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh seasons begin to appear in the Fifteenth.
Bi-regeneration is normal, but I didn't like that two Docks ended up remaining in the universe (also with two Tardis). Tennant deserved a great ending and a decent regeneration after the shameful "I don't want to leave", but he didn't leave here either. After that, Dr. Jokey will seem like some kind of by-product, because the main Doc was retired on Earth. I hope that RTD has plans for the "original" Doctor and this line will not just hang open for the rest of the years.
In addition, if spin-offs like "Torchwood" and "The Adventures of Sarah Jane" start to come out again under the leadership of RTD, then Chibnell can do one of them if he wants. Chibnell wrote the scripts for OBJECTIVELY THE BEST episodes of Torchwood.
I was more surprised that in the story about Amy, the Toymaker used one doll and did not tell about Rory, that was strange.
And look at it - Martha will get a separate doctor one day
The second half is a joke, pliz, put on your pants) It's not that I don't like it, but I probably should)))
Sorry XD
I would also call Smith, but in fairness, he just shone with everything - in the "Eleventh Hour" without a shirt, in the "Guest" in one towel in the "Doctor's Time" generally naked XD
Donna is the luckiest one, she has a Doctor with a Tardis, so he won't have any problems with living space.
I liked RTD, who correctly dressed the young actor in sneakers and a shirt, thereby drawing attention not only to the character of the character ;-)
I am very glad that Donna has her own Doctor, I support the comments above from the series "YOU GIVE EVERYONE A DOCTOR!") although, at the moment, it feels like the "real" one stayed on Earth for some reason, and the "copied one" flew to save the universe, I hope this feeling will go away with the new series.
I started watching Docta when I was 12, and now my age is playing it : With
To be honest, I don't know how to feel about this bi-generation yet. it seems that the only thing that raises questions for me is that, apparently, all the injuries remained with the old version of the doctor, and the fresh doctor left to have fun and fill new bumps. xs, probably the guilt for the fluxes and the existential crisis after meeting my mother were in the pockets of my pants.
I wonder, since they're hinting at the return of the master, what will he say about it? Will he try to get the doctor back together? or is he already fucked up with life after the timeless child and will no longer bother the doctor with questions about regeneration?
In fact, I would like to see doctors cross paths with each other again in the future, even if they both have new faces. The doctor's entire new school essentially defined his loneliness as a time lord, and now he has a sibling. Even with his uniqueness as child's timeless, now he finally has someone close and dear who WON't try to kill him.
It's like starting from scratch, you have to love yourself, we live once, we go for everything!) It suits the image of a joke.
In the TeamTARDIS Vkontakte group, sometimes comics in Russian are posted: https://vk.com/wall-29166271_726865 (by the way, there is a list of books translated into Russian there https://vk.com/page-29166271_50177614 )
But I have not seen audio plays in translation, perhaps because translating audio plays seems to negate the whole purpose and original idea of audio plays - to invite talented beloved actors to play their roles again. No offense to any of the voice actors, I love them and respect their work, but it's one thing to re-sound Tennant when I see Tennant on the screen and it's quite another thing to re-sound Tennant when he only has a voice.
Well, the plot of the audio plays, if desired, can be read somewhere on the TARDIS Wiki
Not so long ago, the Master danced to Rasputin, in "Mummy on the Orient Express" the singer Foxes created an atmosphere with her cover of "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen, once upon a time another Master lit up to "I Can't Decide" by Scissor Sisters and "Voodoo Child" by Rogue Traders, before that there was a gorgeous Talula and her "Put the Devil in Me", and at the very beginning of the revived series, the henchmen of the living trampoline killed visitors to the station hanging over the burning Ground under "Toxic" by Britney Spears
The other musical inserts are cool, I don't argue. But spice up your life is now at the top of the top.
But "Spice Up Your Life" is now really at the top of the top. Of course, she has a slight unfair advantage in that she plays completely in the episode (2 verses + 2 choruses), while all the other songs listed by me were cut to 1 chorus or to 1 verse + 1 chorus.
But Neil Patrick Harris is such a talented and charismatic devil that he would probably bring the cropped version to the top of the top. He has a couple of solo musical numbers in "33 misfortunes", but even when the song is performed by an ensemble of actors, Harris definitely steals all the attention and hearts of the audience.
And it's very strange. I actually usually like characters like that. Unfortunately, something clearly went wrong here.
I don't know about anyone, but somehow everything worked out in my head, plus such endings from RTD don't seem surprising to me, :) In terms of psychology, especially after Flux, all this could not go without consequences, our time lord really needs rest, kmk, that's why they left Tennant's regeneration :) By the way, all the magic can be attributed to the toymaker and it's okay!
The last scene with Tennant was very touching!
Personally, I don't think Tennant will return, there have been similar finals before, after which the Persians did not return, but who knows, who knows)
Joking well, very charismatic, immediately pleased! I'm really looking forward to his episodes!
Thanks to RTD for the crazy rush, we are waiting for the Christmas rush and the new season!
And about the series, it's funny, of course, to know some spoilers before the release of the series. For example, the scene with the hammer was leaked in general in the summer of 2022, but then it sounded strange, like, a Doctor without Pants with a hammer, what?
About bi-regeneration was also leaked this summer and then it sounded very fast and in the series it was shown strangely, or rather explained. When I read the late leaks, I realized that the 15th of the future 14th Doctor just appeared ahead of time.
That is, logically, 14 will have to rest with Donna and her family, work out his injuries and only then regenerate on the 15th and end up during the battle with the Toymaker. But although there are already rumors that Tennant may appear in the season with Jokey, so we are waiting.
Well, the series is glorious, yes, NPH stole absolutely all the scenes, the scene under Old Spice is absolute greatness, Kate and Mel are very cool in the series, I'm glad they're still coming back.
It's a good joke, but until the Doctor gets him hooked, we'll see what happens next.
My beloved Donna, and their duet with the Doctor, and they stayed together as best friends and family, ahhh, this is the fan service we deserve! I am glad that there is a potential opportunity to see them again in the future. It would be very sad to part with them forever, and for now we can breathe a sigh of relief that Donna did not get the tragic ending of 2.0.
Therapy for the Doctor? It's been asking for a lot for many seasons in a row. Screenwriters like to twist plots, break characters and play on emotions, and of course you can easily regenerate and pretend that none of this happened, that the Doctor FORGOT, but damn. But damn... the injury has been accumulating there for a long time, and the Doctor is still not ironclad.
And how we drove through the satellites that died, but not quite, and therefore everything is supposedly OK... Oh) That's why I love RTD for such a careful attitude towards character development. He sometimes gets carried away with plots, yes, but God, I wanted to believe that this warmth of his past seasons would return, and RTD did not disappoint.

It's not entirely clear, the Doctor is still alone, and then he will somehow combine with 15m or another regeneration when he works out his problems. Or, after all, we now have two Doctors, each of whom will go his own way, and the 15th has no problems, because he stupidly left this part of himself with the 14th.
In general, I hope in the future they will somehow combine it back and the Doctor after therapy will still become one, and not remain with a split personality. Just in time for the next anniversary, it will be possible to make such a scene, at the same time invite Tennant back to the series, and before that he will probably appear a couple of times just in the series, because it's not for nothing that they left on the 14th:) I don't want them to forget about it, leaving it unexplained.
In general, despite all the trash happening on the screen, I liked the series. I don't know if I'm biased, if that's really the case, but even the broken "canon" again (Is there one at all?) RTD looks somehow more organic and holistic, and is not annoying, as it was with Chibnell. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the very atmosphere of the series is similar to the first seasons of new school, for which I fell in love with the series, only now with big budgets. Perhaps because none of the characters look like cardboard. And the plot itself is more interesting and fascinating, it looks in one go.
The toymaker is amazing, NPH played great. And the dance scene in the Unit fell in love immediately.
I liked the 15th doctor right away, just like I immediately went to the 10th and 12th, and then they became my favorite regenerations, so I hope it will be the same here. In his behavior and movements, it is felt that he is still the same Doctor, although he has changed.
For the first time in a long time, I feel like I'm looking forward to both the Christmas episode and the new season, which hasn't happened for a very long time, probably since the middle of the first season of the 13th.
I also noticed a reserve for the future, the Toymaker said that he played with everyone, but he hid from one because he was afraid to play with him. This line was inserted for a reason. I wonder who the Toymaker was afraid of, and how this something would collide with the Doctor.
Well, which hordes of Toymakers should be feared, which he mentioned before his disappearance, is also not clear yet.
And of course, I'm waiting for the new appearance of the Master. Actually, I would like to see the Master, not only more adequate (it probably won't be the Master anymore), but rather more friendly to the Doc, like Missy at the end.
On the other hand, maybe this time, instead of bringing back the iconic villain from the classics, Russell T Davies came up with someone new, and now he will tease him throughout the season in small hints and mentions of how it was with "Bad Wolf", "Vote Harold Saxon", "Torchwood" and the disappeared planets and bees.
But the fact that another doctor, and even with a TARDIS, now just sits and does not interfere with threats to earth (and they will certainly be) is a strange decision for me
When they started talking about the house and all that, I decided that he would go to galifrey, or look for answers to a more distant past for himself, and then he just settled with Donna. It's cute, of course, but it's kind of shallow or something
Jokingly, there's really nothing to say yet, but I didn't cause any negativity, and that's the main thing.
Let's see what happens next
This eternal theme of DC about the creation and destruction that humanity carries always resonates.
Thanks for the last two episodes, I'm sitting and crying! I'm going to miss them again. 😭
"If you take away all the toys, who am I?" 🥺
In fact, it is very logical that the face of the 10th returned and that in the end he stayed again, because of all the doctors, he is the only one who never wanted to leave! There are, of course, questions about how all this will work with two doctors and two tardis in the same universe.
Make jokes too, fire, great casting!
I am so glad that Donna is alive and the good end is, everyone is alive, 14 has received his therapy.
I'm not sure I like the biregeneration move.
But I liked Neil Patrick Harris!
and Joke too :)
In general, this episode was just such a special episode, when there were several doctors, and several satellites, and the Avengers tower and a star in the role of the antagonist, and regeneration, and several tardis!
But as I like the previous episode a lot more so far, it seems that I personally missed the usual episode with the tenth /fourteenth and Donna much more. It's good that in the end there is such a regular episode, and a special edition like today!
We are waiting for Christmas now :)
The toy maker is gorgeous. I love these tricksters.
In general, I did not watch the series with him in old school (and there are some difficulties with it, there is no normal option, only static pictures with sound). But I liked the character, as they say, in absentia, according to the description and comments of those who watched. I remember when rumors were just beginning to spread about who Harris would play, I was hoping with all my heart for a Toyboy. And yes, that's how it turned out. Hurray!
But, in my opinion, they didn't put the squeeze on it a little bit. I would like to throw the whole unit out of the series (and come up with another cameo for Mel). Make more games. Surrealism. Maybe a pinch of horror. That's just a pinch. And more humor. So that everything is bright and fun.
And so it seems cool, but it feels like the whole huge potential of the character just didn't put the squeeze on.
As with many other series of the First and Second Doctors. But as with some of them, a full-fledged animation will be made for "Celestial Toymaker", the trailer was recently posted. The visual style of the human characters is a bit strange, it seems to me that for some reason the authors were inspired by the games from TellTale Games and the pilot of the animated series "The Amazing Digital Circus"
https://youtu.be/Ncdtvn8H_Bk?si=b6Ehr5n5WCDv6r-t
In any case, the more lost episodes are restored in the form of animation, the better in my opinion. I would like to see the entire Hartnell and Troughton era re-released in animation, preferably with color (ideally with a 16:9 wide screen, and rewiring all short twenty-minute episodes into large forty-minute and one-and-a-half-hour ones). Then maybe I would finally decide to watch the classics...
I liked the toy maker back in the Classics, and it didn't disappoint here. His games were creepy. Especially the "live" doll and the talking dolls that attacked Donna.
About the unusual appearance of a new Dock. Well, I'm fine on the whole. And Joking, I liked the Doctor on first impression. In terms of energy, it somehow reminded me of the 11th mixed with the 6th. It will be interesting to see his seasons.
Tennant remained the eternal Doctor!☺️☺️☺️ I am very happy for him and for his personal happy ending.
What an intrigue. Who picked up the Toymaker's tooth. From the sound of it, it seemed to me that Kate.
In short, RTD explained the new realities of DC and he says that this bigeneration occurred immediately throughout the timeline of the Doetor and with each regeneration a fragmented timeline was formed where the regenerated Doctor survived and continued to travel and that is why the Doctor sometimes met older past Doctors, everything is simple - these are fragmented versions of the same Doctors who survived in their timeline. For example, in this way you can explain the series "Two Doctors" where the Second along with Jamie, both aged and at the same time mention Wargame, although they can't because in this series Jamie's memory was erased, and the Doctors were forcibly regenerated into a Third, and now this is explained by the fact that the Sixth crossed paths with the fragmented Second, who in his timeline saved his companions and went on to travel and then crossed paths with the main Sixth.
Here I tried to depict the canons of the new timeline. It turns out that we have a main timeline where there is an actual Doctor + all the past ones before their regenerations and the Doctors' answers after regeneration. That is, each Doctor now has a version from the main timeline and a fragmented version. What is shown at the end of the series is the timeline of the Fourteenth survivor, and Jokey flew on in the main timeline.
Here are RTD's direct quotes to make it clear:
"a whole timeline bigenerated".
"I think all of the Doctors came back to life with their individual TARDISes, the gift of the Toymaker, and they're all out there travelling round in what I'm calling a Doctor verse."
"Sylvester McCoy woke up in a drawer, in a morgue, in San Francisco… and Jon Pertwee woke up on the floor of the laboratory"
And he also said that Tales of the TARDIS canon and Shard Seventh says the following: "Time streams are funny things. In some, I regenerate. In others, I don't. It's all a matter of perspective."
They've been clever with bi-regeneration, of course, and I hope that means we'll see Tennant and Tate on the show again. I love them very much.
And even though no one died or regenerated, I still feel kind of sad, I don't understand why.
The new Doctor is very funny, compared to 14 heaven and earth. In principle, I like the actor, let's see.
The fifteenth is still normal, much better than the doctor. But who knows how it will be. Maybe they'll strangle you even more with a subpoena. The invalid, it turns out, can walk. They made a special ramp into the tardis for her, but she didn't even go inside and won't become a companion. As usual, a subpoena for the sake of a subpoena. The same applies to Ibrahim at the Unit.
In general, it's stupid to make a secret organization public, and to single out the headquarters of the quarry like that. It puts all employees in danger. And, I think, the episode with the shooting down of the South Korean satellite will not receive any development.
Regarding bigeneration. It's very funny, two episodes to drive out that everything around is non-binary and roll out binary. It would seem that there is fertile ground to launch several TV series at once, like Sidaba's. But no, they'll forget about the Fourteenth again and concentrate on the Fifteenth. Aeschylus is not a fact that she will ever appear.
I just watched a YouTube video about a Toymaker the other day, and as I understood it, two factors played here - first, the creator of the character originally intended that he would be called just Toymaker, and celestial was just an epithet put into the episode title, which the First Doctor called him, and in the script the word celestial was written with a small letter. But there was a misunderstanding, and the audience decided that his correct name was completely "Celestial Toymaker". Thus, getting rid of the prefix "celestial" was a return to the original idea of the author who invented this character
The second reason was that in the ~ 60 years since the episode was released, the word celestial has acquired a slight racist connotation when it is applied to Asians, and since the first Toyboy performed by Michael Gough (by the way, Alfred from the four Batman films of the 90s) wore traditional Asian clothes, then remove the association of the word celestial with this character should help smooth out a little negative context.
Disney is also possible/Marvel and their Celestials Didn't want competition, or Ed Sheeran filed for copyright
(the last paragraph is a joke if anything)
A series that already smacks of an anniversary! Finally!
Why there were the first two — I don't understand, apparently, to sprinkle salt on the edge of the universe)
Toymaker - fire!) The thing with the appearance of a chuckle is something...It is not very clear, it strongly smacks of a story about an Archangel, which was immediately remembered.
Neil is gorgeous! But I'm very used to him in the role of Barney))
What a pity he didn't tell the new Doctor to "Get dressed up!" when he appeared in his underpants :D .
The second red-haired companion is too old-school, I didn't look, I didn't appreciate it, but I put a plus sign.
The unit in Stark Tower with a super duper laser is awesome))
The way the Doctor once again (as when he confused Donna and the clone in the pre-series) messed up, just quickly running into the door and forgot to enter Donna (again)... RukaLizo, of course.
The fact that the Doctor as a whole fell for the Toyboy's trick and ran after him is also a dubious act.
Matser lost to the toymaker!!! How is it at all?)) How could the Master lose? And where it is, I want to see what kind of games were there)
Well, the ending with the tooth is mmmmmmm)
Bigreeneration - gygy! :D Came up with the same)) But it was warm to my heart that now we have another one (after Handy) Doctor Tennant, and even on Earth and in our reality, there is hope for another return (RTD, do not let me down!).
The new Docta. Well... So far, it's strange. He didn't even have any confusion, he just got out and was ready for everything. No shock for you. Apparently, bioregeneration works like that, yes. Hobbaaa...and that's it)
How the Toymaker could not catch the ball is strange. But apparently the two Docts are too cool.
The thing with the second TARDIS looks too cheesy and strained, but it's still good that the Tennant Doctor can now travel.
I wonder if he can regenerate now? Or is that all?)
The hugs of the two Doctors were a little too much. But okay, Lando, I don't see anything like that here. They're just very...relatives)
I hope the new Doctor will be the wrong one...)
"Rose" in the end, personally, caused me rather negative emotions. I hope that he will definitely not come back anymore.
I want a spin-off with Tennant :) But it will most likely eclipse the ratings of the main series and it will be bad.
(the UNIT is just like a SHIELD now.)
but it seemed to me that somehow there was not enough of such a cool villain. NPH is very good
, we can only hope that he will return in future episodes
It seems they are definitely trying to forget the era of Chibnell, the Toyboy showed only the companions of 11 and 12 Doctors))
well, for me personally, so much the better. I haven't watched the seasons with the 13th Doctor.
with this split, of course, I am confused. like, so far they've had the same memory and all that. Now they're separated and everyone's living their own lives?
and what will happen next with regeneration? Will Dr. Tennant live to a ripe old age and, like, refuse to regenerate? (I just assumed)
in short, there are plenty of questions
I looked at the teaser for the next episode...
it's really something new. and as they wrote above, it's more youthful, or something. It's like he left all the drama in Dr. Tennant. I hope not. I love the Doctor precisely because, despite all his optimism and heroism, he always remains a wise old man who has seen life.
A doctor in a skirt dancing in a club?
It's like I saw footage from "sex education"
okay. Let's wait and see
I agree with the comments above that this may be an opportunity to explain what happened to the wound.
For example, a Curator and Another doctor.
The relaunch of the series turned out well. Now it will be even more interesting to watch the new doctor.
And of course the Master!!! Or a Mistress, judging by the red nails... Really looking forward.
PS: in the scene where the Toyman danced in the UNIT, did you also remember that very scene from the KVVM with the song about costumes?
And Donna's balls are really made of iron 😁
To see the dolls of Emmy Pond and Clara Oswald in the toymaker's show was very surprising and pleasant, there had been no mention of them for a long time.
I'm generally shocked by bigeneration, I want each companion to have a Tennant, Rosa and Donna already have their own personal Doctors
A beautiful man, a beautiful man. Perhaps without underpants
and of course spice appeared in the performance of the toymaker top
I'm glad they mentioned almost everyone. But Martha Zyza wasn't on that list
. Who wants Torchwood back?
I liked almost everything except the pace - again, everything was too hasty and with a lot of jumps. The series would fit perfectly into the Flux - about the same pace. Well, I also have a claim that Kate is like furniture again, except for the scene where she demonstrates the effect of waves on herself.
And I put the series 4 out of 5.
And then I was confused and came up with the idea that 10-14 is a Doctor for millennials, and 15 is for zoomers. And that 14 has worn out is about millennials too, and the way for zoomers. And this is ageism. What the hell difference does it make? I am also surprised that RTD did not shit on the 12th incarnation and did not declare that it was the terminal stage and the Doctor's gut screamed about wear and tear.
And then I went to watch a documentary about the shooting of the series. I wish I hadn't done that. What kind of RTD is a dark person.
Wearing someone else's national costume is a cultural appropriation, because the Heavenly Toymaker was a racist in 1966
But we're in 2023 and that's why we added a racist aspect to him anyway @ apparently a joke about warmer climes for a guy who came to buy a doll AND a GERMAN ACCENT
I thought that the German accent was just a joke, a joke, because there are associations with inviting people - you need an outlandish accent, and in films / TV series about the 19th century, for example, this is how they show, all sorts of entertainers-enticers sometimes speak with an accent.
But now, because of his crappy comment, I perceive it differently - in his old head, the first thought for a racist is to choose a German accent, and to think that well, HE's in 2023 and the Germans have already suffered everything - no, whatever. I just don't have any censorious words and this is a fierce cringe. I wish RTD to travel around Europe more (fortunately, it is nearby) and look at any other country. Germany is the most selfish and liberal, and racism will be the first thing to fly here.
Spain: they shout something at you and stare at you all the time
Switzerland: migrants, go home
Netherlands: choose the right and want to make life harder for migrants
French: French is superior and in general you are dirt from under your fingernail
Trash. Grandfather, get more rest!
by the way, I will write about this separately - it also seems to me to be utter nonsense, because this is the personification of the chaos of the Universe and nothing more, if it took on such an appearance - it says something about the Doctor or the people of that time, rather than about a Toy
Besides, if a creature from non-existence turns into Donna so much that it ceases to be aware of itself, then what is the danger of such a creature? it will not be able to "multiply", because it does not understand that it, a creature from non-existence, needs to capture other minds, so all the horror from the previous series is lost, then why kill them - you just need to wait until they are so integrated into their prototypes and forget that they are "villains")
You see, you can find fault with any plot move. I'm not defending now how they wrapped up here with this bioregeneration, but any move that seems "better" can also stumble upon its counterarguments)
You can shoot a new version of the Five Doctors purely with Tennant
But in fact - do not take these words of Russell T. Davis to heart yet, this is a dubious statement about the fact that the entire timeline of the Doctor has been bigenerated - at the moment it is nonsense and absurd, said in order to fit into the updated canon the older versions of the former Doctors who appeared in the spin-off "Tales of the TARDIS" (https://old.myshows.me/view/86963 / - in fact, these are just selected episodes of the classic "Doctor Who" of 1963-1989 for which 5 minutes were filmed at the beginning and at the end of the episode with older Doctors and companions)
Until some of the aged "fragmented" Doctors appear in the new "Doctor Who" (unless, of course, the Curator is considered such), the words about the bigeneration of past Doctors are just a hype for the sake of a haight for the sake of a hype.
In addition, they left a loophole to pull David back into the series if necessary.
The toyboy turned out to be very bright, Neil Patrick Harris never fails in this regard.
A good episode with a very sweet ending.
The only significant advantage of this division move is that we got a real restart, and the new Doctor can be considered not even the Fifteenth, but the First, everything started from scratch. And the old Doctor has finally retired, if I may say so. Jokey Gava, by the way, shines with charisma, so I think he will make an excellent Doctor. And yes, Neil Patrick Harris as a Toyboy was also very good, he would have made a good Doctor, if you think about it.
And yes, the golden tooth fell out. The Toymaker mentioned that there seemed to be a Master sitting there. So we are waiting for the return of the old villain. I wonder whose hand picked up that tooth. Is it really some kind of cult of worship of the Master again, as it was in the two-part series "The End of Time", which will bring him back to life?
As for admiring Gupta, oh, I'm sorry - Joke about Gatwa - I don't share the general hysteria about him. He's kind of incomprehensible so far and is not sure that he will pull out the role of a Doctor at all.
Well, let's see)
The toyboy was somehow simply leaked, I do not remember winning a sports competition in the Doctor yet, usually they ran with some tricks or difficult emotional decisions. But the box is still there, so there is a chance for his return)
The dancing scene was perky, reminiscent of 'everything everywhere and at once' and 'legion' in spirit.
It's funny how Tennant's mobile eyebrows were beaten at the end, I love the gif where he raises one eyebrow)
Tennant's eyebrows - a separate acting award for best performance!)
But it bothered me for a very long time - why did the Fifteenth appear in a shirt and underpants?))) But the actor fit into the role perfectly.
2) Damn, I understand all these "every tired traveler needs his Valinor", but when all this conversation about "stay here, and this one will fly further to surf the universe" took place, Doc had such a sad face. It's as if he realizes that he is being drained of a consolation prize and offered to sit on the bench while the young and the early prove themselves.
It smelled like a Doctor
I haven't watched the last few seasons, but it was nice to be back.
Jokey looks great, maybe it's a reason to come back)
Well, now I want a spin-off about Tennant. Let the young people look at the carefree Jester and Learn New York, and I'd rather stay with my true Doctor.
Bye Doctor, I'll miss you
here you have constant retcons, and some kind of clowning, and an absolute lack of drama, and cardboard characters...
The toymaker is good. An unscientific spontaneous theme from the classics looks unusual in new school.
But there is a general sense of fatigue from all three episodes. This carnival of fanservice, seasoned with an agenda, is only needed to sweeten the pill of inevitable innovations. Sadly.
that's the opinion after watching the series and reading all the comments...
it feels like there are no true DC fans left. charge the minusomets, drown them.
Over the past couple of days, while I was doing origami folding, I turned on YouTube and watched about thirty reactions from different people to "Star Beast", "Wild Blue Yonder" and "The Giggle". Real fans are crying with happiness to see David Tennant and Catherine Tate again, as well as Wilfred, Melanie Bush and Kate Stewart. The real fans are happy that Russell T. Davis is writing exciting scripts again, and Murray Gold is once again creating music that gives goosebumps. Real fans are inspired and intrigued by what a bright future Doctor Who will bring The Fifteenth Doctor performed by Jokey Gatva and his companion Ruby Rose performed by Millie Gibson (by the way, an excerpt from the Christmas special with a goblin song is simply awesome, and there is wild chemistry between the Fifteenth and Ruby: https://youtu.be/XXgnqGTOXTE?si=DxSHoz43WwA-NDh6 )
But fortunately all these racists, sexists, homophobes (in a word, fuckers) have tens and hundreds of times fewer views, and any adequate people understand which side in this "dispute" it is better and more correct to stand on
And the very first episode of the Jodie Whittaker era, "The Woman Who Fell to Earth," actually broke the BBC's long-standing record for the number of viewers on premiere day.
And I just want to note once again that the further into the forest, the more firewood there is... Oh, I didn't want to write that - the closer to our time, the less important the number of live views plays, more and more people switch to streaming every year. The number of viewers on the BBC in Britain for the three anniversary specials with David Tennant, in fact, no longer plays a role at all, because the main viewings come from all over the world on Disney+
For example, I know that the average rating of season 12 is 5.4 million, the average rating of season 13 is 4.95, of course there was a decrease in ratings, this is a fact, but it is unfounded to say that there were no views, well, that.
But let's look at where we can look, namely myshows. And what do we see?
The last season with Capaldi, not the most popular, by the way, the doctor - 640 thousand users of the side noted how they watched it. The first season with Jody - 300 thousand, the second season - 203 thousand, and the third, he is the last - 90 thousand. These are the most unsightly facts. The user himself notes what he has looked at. NINETY thousand. against 640 or more than one and a half million with Smith in the conditional 6th season.
Well, please ignore it! and considering what kind of feces you're looking at, you should have done it a long time ago.
> TV ratings are a very ephemeral substance and don't always take into account watching a series from start to finish.
You confuse broadcast channels with streaming, this may happen in streaming, but Doctor Who is shown on TV on BBC One, and not in streaming, so they count all the viewing time from start to finish and then count the average, you can even find 5-minute breakdowns in the right places and see which one the length of time how many people watched the series. In Britain, there is a BARB system that has been registering ratings for more than 50 years.
If you want to deny objective facts, it's your right.
But what do you need to know about BARB? Participating viewers have a box on their TVs that tracks the programs they watch. In other words, this is some kind of focus group, and not all British TV viewers. Currently, about 5,100 houses are involved in the BARB group (which corresponds to about 12,000 people). This means that with a total UK population of 65,648,100, according to the 2016 census, each viewer with the BARB reporting window represents over 5,000 people! And that's exactly what I'm talking about - and in Vilaribo they claim that they have a 20 cm pipit.
So what about objectivity? First of all, you should at least study the matcha before getting into arguments and discussions!
ps. understand! BARB is needed not for accounting, but to roughly represent the order of the numbers and try to convince the advertiser that this product is being used for so much and so much. This is done exclusively for advertising purposes, and there is no real accounting, because the margin of error is enormous.
According to your logic, no one watched the series then, and now it turns out, although BARB has long established itself as the best and most accurate rating tracking system.
I'm well versed in the match, I've been following the ratings of Doctor Who for more than 10 years, and you don't even know that the BBC doesn't give a damn about advertisers, there are no ads on their channels because they make income tax deductible, but you continue to judge by the numbers of maishous, your the right)
As for "advertisers don't give a damn", you're telling someone else here, and ratings are not only for the BBC, but they also count on other channels. But this is your "don't give a fuck", it clearly demonstrates how much you really swim in all these TV nuances and the product you produce must be competitive.
According to your logic, 1.5 million for Smith is 1.5 million unique viewers (or rather 1.3 million) who have marked episodes and specials, the mayshous admins are probably flattered by such indicators, but I have to disappoint you, this is just the sum of views of all episodes and specials, Smith has 19 different episodes and specials in season 5, 7 the season is even more than 2 million, this is not an average, that is, if you marked all the episodes of season 5, then you will have 19 votes there, but not everyone marks the finals.
If you watch, you need to watch for unique views, for each episode, they decrease with each episode from year to year, this is normal, especially for long-running series.
Chris's first episode has 107,000 views. https://myshows.me/view/episode/25987 /, Chris' latest episode has 97 thousand views https://myshows.me/view/episode/25999/
Tennant's first episode has 94,000 views. https://myshows.me/view/episode/26000 /, Tennant's latest episode has 84 thousand views https://myshows.me/view/episode/26038/
Smith's first episode has 84,000 views. https://myshows.me/view/episode/26039 / , Smith's latest episode has 72 thousand views https://myshows.me/view/episode/1657672/
Capaldi's first episode has 62 thousand views. https://myshows.me/view/episode/2192314 /, the latest Capaldi episode has 37 thousand views https://myshows.me/view/episode/16033202/
The first episode of Jody has 30 thousand views. https://myshows.me/view/episode/16606455 /, Jody's latest episode has 12 thousand views https://myshows.me/view/episode/16606455 /
there is a drop, no one even argues here, but it is also visible in the ratings, which are considered the barb system)
The new titles generally have only 8 thousand views. https://myshows.me/view/87180/doctor-who-season-1 /, it turns out that according to your logic, they were watched even less than the episodes with Jody, well, a complete failure)
the season. But there's nothing to beat the NINETY thousand figures, and many, and the vast majority, don't mark the scores as viewed. The system also does not mark if you automatically select the viewed season. So at one and a half million and at 90 thousand, this is more than true data. If you divide it by the number of users who watched the seasons with Jody at all, then the situation there is even more deplorable.
So why are you so defending a real low-quality product, trying to pass it off as something good? The question, as they say, is rhetorical... Oh, you don't have to do that!
That's it, I'm tired... psh0l is ignored! If I see your writing, I don't even know what it says, but I'll give you a minus, because you just can't write anything meaningful, which means you deserve it. Free!
It's time for the BBC to stop manipulating ratings. We all know that Doctor Who is dead.
Only Smith has 19 episodes in season 5, Jody has only 9 in the last one, it's clear to a fool that there will be fewer views, if you also take into account that the haste is much less often noted, and Jody even more so)
>> That's it, tired... psh0l is ignored!
But you called me yourself...
Oh, I don't like such an aggressive push to switch to a new design, even though it's not directly terrible-terrible, but just 20 percent less convenient...
They are already working on regenerations as they want. It used to be an EVENT, now it's some kind of circus.;
But the bigeneration solution is clearly something that RTD tried not to kill Tennant with for the second time in 13 years
Although knowing RTD, he can do it during the season with Jokes to make it even more painful for the fans
I liked the groundwork for something large-scale, which will still have time to prove itself in the coming seasons:
1. The Master (not again, but again) will return, which is generally expected, and this hand taking the tooth is an obvious reference to the return of Master John Simm
2. "The One Who Waits" sounds almost like "The One Who Stays" from Loki (it would be an epic crossover, but don't, please😅), so I hope for something cool
Well, will someone give the 15th pants already? Or does he not know where the wardrobe is in the Tardis?
Yes, yes, I am ready for hundreds of failures.
Well, in fact.
I have nothing against the new doctor, we will look, it was this turn that upset the story.
The last 15 minutes of the episode literally consists of it just happened.what?what?what?- I kept repeating it endlessly!!!
But how beautiful David and Catherine are!I adore their duet just to infinity!Incredible!The emotions of their game more than cover all the flaws of the plot.
They left the Tardis itself! Aaaaaaa! And we have to believe that there won't be any more Tennant episodes😁 Ha! I'm definitely looking forward to a spin-off with them. 😍😍😍
I'm thrilled with this idea of leaving Tennant with Donna, I wouldn't survive his death again...
I'm thrilled with the simply amazing Toyboy and his dancing with rose petals.
From the fact that everything is fine in the end.
And oh, how I missed Wilf at the common table.😭😭 A bright memory of this wonderful actor, I loved Grandpa Wilfred so much....
The Fourteenth perceived the return as a second chance and began to work on himself...I really noticed the changes, he was so sad all three episodes, I noticed it back in the starry beast))
This. Simply. Fucking. I cried and sobbed, but I'm so happy!!!! He stayed!!!!!Yeah!!!!
I am very impressed with everything, Tennant's game is just on the break and Katherine is just like, everything is at the highest level, this is the best birthday gift from RTD.
Remembering 4- He didn't want to leave so much that He didn't leave...This is his reward....And I'm happy...
it wasn't enough for me to have three episodes, seriously, but can I please have 20 more episodes with David and Catherine, they're so awesome!!!
He was destined to meet Donna again and return home...❤❤❤❤❤
It's incredibly touching to watch how Donna tried to get the Doctor to have a heart-to-heart conversation, but he doesn't have time, it feels like he's been missing this conversation for a VERY long time...That's why I had to go back and meet Donna...and the answer to the question why this face...
There is a suspicion that the scriptwriters came up with it remembering Donna's words in 4 - "Yes, you are like worms"!
But I am very glad that everything ended well for Donna after so many years .
It was as if RTD had taken and turned the most coveted fanfiction from my fantasies into reality.... I love this dude so much, I just don't know where to go from emotions...
God, God, where to run on the ceiling with delight!
When the Toyman shot Tennant, I almost screamed, because it was as unexpected as possible, it seemed that everything happened too fast. And Here We Go Again, Allons-y and... wait. what? what? What about bi-generation?AND ARE YOU KIDDING? once again, we divided the Doctor into two, although of course not quite, but still VERY similar to the "End of the Journey", only now Tennant was left to Donna.... There are too many questions, too many. each of them is a Doctor, but how many regenerations does each have? or Tennant will just grow old and die one day.. And if not? Do they have common memories? And the character? It all seems strange.... But the idea that the Doctor has a part that should have gone on vacation a long time ago, reflected and stayed with Donna (that's fine!) anyway, in the end I cried!!!
And what's going to happen next....
Confused, no other series has ever broken my brain so much...But the joke is cool, I liked it, maybe I will watch it, but not the fact that right away...
I also hoped until the last moment that they would show one of the old Doctors, at least for a couple of minutes.. But THEY MENTIONED THE OLD COMPANIONS, THANKS AAH, it just cut to the heart ...
and the character development of the Doctor and Donna is amazing!!! At some point, you have to stop, live, feel ...
the finale really feels like the end of a chapter, finding peace, only surrounded by loved ones. A real family, The Doctor allows himself not just the duty of care but also to be cared for and loved by you know.....
In short, the releases are incredible, so much nostalgia... There are things to think about, there are pleasant moments, Tennant is gorgeous, Donna is the best, thank you all if you read this.
Tennant, Tate, Jokey, and Neal. Everything is great in this series.
I can see the development of Donna- she has learned to stand up for herself (to defend personal boundaries with her mother, to get a PO increase from Kate, not to doubt her abilities- she was wow before, but now she's just an awesome woman!!!I love her madly!!!
She built a healthy relationship with her mom, which would have been unthinkable even for Donna, who knew the doctor, in the fourth season they were only toxic, and now they can talk heart to heart (the scenes in the kitchen at the beginning of the finale are just wonderful!!!). she raised a gorgeous daughter, she lived with her husband for 15 years in a happy marriage. It's all worth a lot and says a lot about her as a person. This is not the rude donna from the beginning of the runaway bride, who screamed at the doctor and taxi drivers at the top of her voice..She seems to be wiser, and when she already remembered the doctor, all their exciting journeys and how vast and beautiful the universe is, she refused to enter the tardis, saying that she now "has her own adventures" with Rose.. This Donna is genuinely happy with everything she has, she just couldn't feel happy every second because of the gaps in her memory.
But in general, it would be interesting to learn more about this period! For example, what jobs has she been working at all this time?
And by the way, Donna's face after getting a high-paying job is a masterpiece!!!!And yes, Catherine is an amazing actress, I've loved her since that episode of the runaway bride and I keep falling in love even more, I want to repeat a hundred times how amazing she is!!!Thank you RTD for bringing back this beautiful woman, and for making her happy, and truly the most important woman in the entire forever universe!!!!!
Ps. And once again, it's amazing!!! Tennant played and gave himself all three episodes, all three of them were just the best performances, love for the hero and the world, he, just HIM. I love this dude for infinity!!!!!!
the best 3 episodes of recent times, I will definitely review in the future. yes , there was even a desire to review the seasons again with the Tenth 🫂
– No.
"to get back home."
screaming, crying, throwing up 💔😭
Although after that, there were also a couple of Osgood appearances in comics that I hadn't read, and just a metric TON of appearances in audio plays from Big Finish that I hadn't listened to. Plus, Osgood was one of the three main characters (along with the Thirteenth Doctor and Larry Nightingale) in one of the most recent Doctor Who video games, The Lonely Assassins 2021 on Android and Steam, which continues the plot of the iconic episode "Don't Blink".
I haven't played this game, so I don't know what happens to Osgood in the story besides the fact that she helps Larry investigate the Crying Angels, but I'm inclined to believe that it's very UNLIKELY that anything bad happened to Osgood in the game, it would be a strange development of the story of an important character behind the scenes. I really wanted to read the plot of the audio plays and games on the TardisWiki at least "diagonally" to make 100% sure for you that everything is fine with Osgood, but there are too many letters, I couldn't handle it.
As for her absence from Unit during "Starry Beast" and "Chuckle" - perhaps she is somewhere on a business trip to another country, or just on another field operation. From the point of view of our real world, and not the in-series one, perhaps the actress Ingrid Oliver was unavailable during the filming of the anniversary specials, or maybe Russell T. Davis just really wanted to involve the new researcher of the UNIT, Shirley Ann Bingham (a girl in a wheelchair) in the plot. If you remember the episode "Planet of the Dead" (with the Tenth Doctor and Lady Cristina de Sousa), Malcolm Taylor was UNIT's research associate, which means UNIT has other people in this position besides Osgood.
but listening to his clumsy German was painful)))
Dancing to Spice Up Your Life is a real treat. they brought me back to the distant I Can't Decide :)
"You're gonna be someone else. It doesn't matter who. Cause every single one of you is fantastic." - I don't quite agree, yes, everyone is wonderful, but still Dr. Tennant remains out of reach. and these comeback spashings on the 14th just showed us that.
After looking at the new Doctor, I don't think I'm going to watch the next season. This actor is too handsome and hot. He's just very cute, like any actor in American TV series. He's undeniably charismatic, but I prefer Brits with a weird cast.
Dr. Tennant, of course, is so haggard at the end. he directly REFLECTS everything that has accumulated inside him over the past regenerations. As I understand it, a new young face will start a fresh page in the history of the Doctor.
I was very pleased with the golden tooth that remained from the Toy.
I was suddenly drawn to review my favorite seasons from 9th, 10th and 11th. such nostalgia took over.
However, if you remember the scene of the Doctor talking to the Toymaker before playing cards, the Toymaker told the Doctor "I made a puzzle out of your history" ("I made a mosaic/puzzle out of your story") and it was this phrase that, according to Western fans of the series, Russell T. Davis wrote into this dialogue in order for fans to they could gently and unobtrusively explain any inconsistencies in the canon by referring to the Toyman's manipulations. Did the eighth say that he's half human on his mother's side? This is a Toyboy playing with the Doctor's story. Do the second and Jamie remember the events that they didn't find? This is a Toyboy playing with the Doctor's story. Does the episode "Morbius Brain" show the Doctor's faces before the First One? Thirteen found out that she wasn't from Gallifrey and met the Doctor's regeneration before the First One? This is a Toyman playing with the Doctor's story, rewriting the old reality into a new one.
I repeat, there are no plans for an open retcon, Timeless Child and Flux are canon. But if it's easier for you, you can explain the inconsistencies in the canon by manipulating the Toyman.
And which master am I talking about, I'd like to know?
This is most likely about the Master Sasha Dhawan, who died on the cybermoon after sending a ray of living energy to pulse on the Thirteenth. Well, or if the writers of the series want to rewrite the events of the audio plays, then perhaps it's about Missy after a double suicide (although then the Toyman would probably say "Missy" and not "Master"). In any case, it doesn't matter which Master was sharpened in the tooth, the next time we see him, he will already be played by a new actor or actress, and we will have the same sudden twist as with Professor Yang, Harold Saxon, Missy or Agent Oh, because this is the trick of the Master - impersonating someone else, and it's hard to do it with a familiar face. I guarantee you that, I even give you a tooth (pun intended)
Individual applause from the NPH, this wonderful actor does not know how to play badly. How does this theatricality suit him)
It was worth waiting so many years for.
The joke about ramps and an accessible environment made me smile)))
The toy was just fiery. that fake German accent of his, and how the dude practically told him during a racist hint that his moustache had come off. :D is terribly funny.
And how she dances, how she laughs! and that look. that's how fucking ancient and alien it is.
and all these memes that are now playing with zets allright Zen are also delivering.
The master trapped in the golden tooth - yes! a hand with a reference to the unforgettable Lucy. :)
and a light kick in the direction of Moffat, who somehow has everything very sad with his companions. if you also count Missy in the same place, then in general. Well, that's what it is.
Lovely Mel, so nice to see her. and they even remembered that she was actually a programmer.
the doctor is so really tired and melting before my eyes. It's just that all the sins of the world are on him.
The unit's tower looked awfully like the Avengers tower. Just our response to Marvel!
but the ending blurred everything for me. very gratifying sentimental sentiments, another copy of Tennant, forever provided with a job now, fabulous absolutely bi-regeneration and looney Tune knocking the tardis out of the tardis with a hammer.
Everything is complicated!
but it looked in one go. RTD could, and still can!
but what's strange is that women's clothes regenerate into men's clothes with a bang, and poor men's clothes can't do anything at all, just share between dudes randomly. in short, women's clothing is clearly of a higher order.
And everyone except Martha got a doctor. The injustice! :)
The new doctor is nothing at first glance. stubborn and energetic.
and finally I realized that the music was from a farscape. :)
It's weird that there are 2 doctors now. As if this gives a huge scope for imagination, but will Dr. Tennant be remembered at all in subsequent episodes? He stayed on earth and the new doctor will also return to earth often. They must intersect.
I really hope for the development of this branch, but I doubt that they will be able to implement it. Tennant returned for a couple of episodes.
Neil Patrick Harris is the real highlight of the series. When I first heard that Jokey Gatwa would be the 15th Doctor, I immediately agreed that yes! Especially since he is Tennant's direct "heir", Gatva has a very wide range of emotions.
Honestly, I didn't even watch the female doctor - it was such a mess from the very first episode.
I can't say that Donna is my favorite companion of the Doctor. Personally, I liked Rosa and Clara the most.
Bi-generation seems to me a good technique to let Tennant's fans know that his time has passed. He was the best (I've been watching since the 9th), and his return is a little disappointing, as always the forced resurrection of a character is disappointing (the significance of his departure is decreasing). But it's still a pretty cute way to put a stop to it and give the 15th a chance to charm the audience the same way the 10th once charmed them.
a better double regeneration would certainly be nonsense.
Regeneration into other clothes is still annoying
(I read here in the comments why RTD did this, of course this move did not become less stupid from his explanation, even I would say more, but as for me it could be elegantly solved - during forced regeneration into the master, he could stupidly "go change clothes in men's" and then 14 would have quietly appeared in the master's clothes ...)
I was ready that Tennant would finally leave, of course it's nice that he was left, but there are a lot of questions.
Are doctors going to split up all the time now, or from time to time, or is this a one-time event?
Will each copy be able to split up in the same way? or will the previous one stop regenerating?
On the one hand, there is a lot of room for maneuver - each doctor can have his own series and you can periodically arrange deadly battles with packs of doctors, etc.
There are still doubts.
I don't know whether to be happy or getting ready to throw shit at the screenwriters.
I haven't decided yet.
The regeneration of the Doctor is just THAT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?????!!!!!?????!!!!
As if the villain hadn't sung/danced to a popular music track in the series before, and as if there were no musical numbers in the series, yeah)
Teen drama, are you talking about the season 2 finale with the saddest music in the series?)
I don't really understand such claims at all. It's like people don't like something and decide to stick to the highlight of the episode.
Many people love her, by the way, and I don't remember being scolded for her music, which is why they're freaking out now, I don't understand.
1. I do not claim that this is a fact.
2 I just noticed a moment where it would be easy to cross out the restart if desired and decided to share my observation.
And thank you for choosing to insert your five kopecks. your opinion is very important to you.
Man, are you bothering me?
Okay, how many times has the doctor bioregenerated in 60 years? and why did bioregeneration take place, and not the usual one?
You wrote, I replied. The cause of the shaking? If you don't like it, don't read it, don't reply)
And then: "I just degenerated," That's for sure,"I'm just crying with laughter! Did they understand what they were saying?
Dance of the toymaker with pink petals "What did the author smoke? Give me two!" =))
The new dock is better than expected so far, but why
is Tennant still the best in his underpants?! For me.
I think he deserves a family, peace and Donna. The Doctor has struggled and lost in all incarnations. And as a fan of the Tenth Doctor, I remember how much he lost, and how much the subsequent "faces" lost. And it's all inside him.
Bi-generation is the best option for me. Yes, I read about all this above, and the logic is controversial, partially breaks almost the entire universe to hell, but I don't care.
David is the Tenth alive, there are two Tardis now, and I will accept the new Doctor just as we all accepted the previous ones. Even if it doesn't become something special.
I knew Neal would be in the Doctor. Maybe she even wrote it here somewhere. Adore.
I just enjoyed every second with him in the frame. 🤤
Ps: special releases are more interesting than the new season 😊
The atmosphere of the Tennant episodes is always something special for me.
But does this now mean that the 14th will always be alive? That is, he can just appear in any random episode? I'm loving it. But it's still weird, yeah.
Now not only Rosa, but also Donna has her own personal doctor. Dr. Tennant likes to share himself, give me a piece on the next hand
Well, the 15th one has come to me so far.
Persuaded, I'm giving this show a second chance!
The special editions are amazing! Maybe not as good as the whole era of RTD and Moffat, but against the backdrop of the seasons of Chibnell, it's just paradise!
The regeneration has worked.... unusual. We now have two Doctors and two Tardises in parallel. At first it seemed strange, but then I remembered about Rosa with her version of the Doctor and Clara, who is traveling somewhere in her version of the Tardis... therefore, everything is in the spirit of the series.
P.S. Neil Patrick Harris would make a good Craftsman.
There are no words, it's just... everything, of course, is so INTERESTING, but I like it! And two Doctors in the person of Tennant are, of course, generally…
I wonder, by the way, how the first copy of Doctor Tennant is doing with Rose. 🥹
The twist at the end of the episode with the two doctors is interesting. Great!)
