I wish that people wouldn’t lump all of “Classic Who” together (I get it, I even do myself in tags and probably still will tbh) just because I feel like reducing Doctor Who to the pre/post hiatus binary (and the Movie I guess) is kind of… reductive?

Sylvester McCoy Who is closer to Christopher Eccleston Who than it is to William Hartnell Who in the tone and writing for example

And it makes old Doctor Who seem more overwhelming than if we separated it out by Doctors (where the most is seven seasons)

And we’re getting to the point where “New” Who is now almost 20 years old (Millie Gibson grew up on MATT SMITH!) so this previous distinction feels even more arbitrary than it did in 2005

So what’s the fan term where you don’t share certain fan things with the actors like fanfiction, you just don’t do that, I thought it was breaking the fourth wall but I guess I was wrong?
