The DOCTOR WHO Thread

[ShyViolet]

Well, finally started watching Jodie on MAX. I guess I’m eating my words—she’s a really great Doc (even though I’m not terribly crazy about all of the writing)! Loved “Rosa”!

[Daniel]

Yay another "Rosa" lover!

[Ben]

Rosa was the best Jodie episode, easily. Nothing else came or would come close.

New trailer!

I love how Davies has basically reset the reboot to his highest level of triumph (Tennant and Tate) on his return before picking up to continue with it.

Finally, Who looks *properly* epic as opposed to that non-somewhat limited TV way that even the best recent Who has done. Ama ing how little T&T have changed…it’s like they went back in time…

Pretty cool colorization of the end of WarGames!

That was pretty fun last night.

David and Catherine give a rundown of their past adventures:

Meanwhile, on the Classic front:
Those who haven't been able to watch the nearly-complete Classic Who on Britbox in the US can now catch the Classic episodes, organized by Doctor era collection, free-with-ads on TubiTV--
Or, for those starting out, a sampler collection of two or three best story arcs of each Doctor:
https://tubitv.com/series/300001957/cla ... new-to-who

Added bonus, the 1st & 2nd Doctor animated restorations have now been added to the collections, for those who haven't seen:
- Galaxy 4
- Power of the Daleks
- The Macra Terror
- The Faceless Ones
- Evil of the Daleks
- The Abominable Snowmen
- Fury From the Deep

(However, what's currently happening to the BBC restoration of "The Celestial Toymaker" is too tragic to mention here.)

[Ben]

And let’s not mention the end of that last Tennant "special"…

More like Doctor WTF!?

[ShyViolet]

Well, I’m sure I’m not the only one asking: Where the heck can we watch the NuWho library of eps now that it’s no longer on HBO MAX or Hulu???? From what I understand it’s basically floating out in space now…lol.

[ohmahaaha]

Well - the hope is that the BBC is shopping that library out to other Streaming services, in the hopes that they will also pick up or pitch in $ for more new Who. You never know - I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up being Disney again after all. We shall see. Either way, the good news: BBC says that Doctor Who will go on, with or without Disney (or any other Streaming service).

[Ben]

I thought the deal was for Disney to have them all even if they didn’t make more?

That last series, though… Oh, boy…
