>>8055653I've been a Who fan since the 80's. One of my earliest memories is when he fell and regenerated. I was blown away, I had never seen anything like it.
I've followed him through every series, movie and the new Who.
Now, I just cannot watch it. The Whittaker Who was the worst I've ever seen, simply terrible writing, pushing agendas and completely misunderstanding the character. It was like she knew nothing about him, but maybe watched one episode. Then just ran around acting like a fool, trying to do some kind of knock off pathetic version without knowing what she was talking about. I gave up after a few episodes. It hurt to watch.
Then the recent tennat return episodes being written like they were for a 5 year old and also for trans audiences. Why would you write specifically to only make 0.01% of the population happy. It was just terrible. They seem to just want to try to prove they are hip, cool and up to date, so they push trans and gay themes then pat themselves on the back. Telling the Dr he isn't smart because hes only a man and women are better. Telling him off for pronoun usage. It was so cringe inducing.
Dr Who was never about sexuality, the doctor never had and sexual relationships. It was never a theme. He's hundreds of years old, he has little to no interest in dating what he must think of as his children by now.
Theres just no need for sexual themes in Who.
It was all about discovery, the wonder of the universe and life. Fighting crazy aliens who want to kill people with a smile, a laugh and some cool tech.
Now, despite all the backlash they still won't listen and are going ahead with a gay doctor who pushes his sexuality on people. They have killed off their most popular character.
Someone I thought I would follow my whole life.
