if doctor who was a comedy we could have a scene where the doctor and master are laughing at a joke and the companion is like “i don’t get it” and they’re like “oh don’t worry it’s very funny on gallifrey. a classic” and then it cuts to them making the same joke on gallifrey and cracking up but no one else is laughing and are instead annoyed

i hope that the return of russell t davies as showrunner results in doctor who’s production budget being drastically cut. it’s just not rtd era if half the monsters don’t look like shit.
reading all the posts about how "rtd better not write a romance again!! it's not what the show needs!!" are very funny to me bc objectively the audience loves that shit
similarly, i do not actually want or need rose back, but then i read all these posts like "UGH this better not mean MORE ROSE 🙄" and i'm like do it rtd. cast billie piper as fourteen i don't give a fuck
someone reblogged this to tell me they didn't like rose so now i want billie piper as fourteen and her companion rose tyler also played by billie piper
wait wait no shut up. billie piper as fourteen and david tennant as rose
dw series 10 deserves more recognition! like almost nobody talks about it??? despite the fact that bill is a beautifully-written character and good rep or its anticapitalist politics or missy's arc or her fraught friendship with twelve or twelve's development or the absolute masterpiece that is world enough and time/the doctor falls? like this is imo one of the best series of nuwho and people just... forget it exists
People keep coming up with all these long and complicated ideas on how to make doctor who ‘better’. Like relax all we need to do is halve it’s budget. that will solve all our problems
Cut the budget in half then use that money to buy pharmaceutical-grade LSD for the writing and effects teams

I wanted to refrain from being overly-negative, and then spent some time trying to figure out what I wanted to say, but I need this out for my own sanity so here goes.
Jodie Whittaker deserved better. She deserved better scripts, better characterisation, better stories. She deserved to be remembered not just for being the first female doctor, but for being the Doctor. She deserved better than such wishy-washy characterisation and for her incarnation to have been marked by conflicting and downright questionable morality. She deserved big iconic moments like Eccleston’s “Everybody lives”, Tennant’s “I’m the man who’s going to save your lives and all 6 billion planet on the people below”, Smith’s “Hello. I’m the Doctor.” and Capaldi’s “personally, I think that’s a hell of a bird”. She deserved actual relationships with her companions beyond the surface level “we’re friends now”. Relationships like the warm, bantering companionship of Ten and Donna, the blossoming, wound-healing friendship like Nine and Rose, the mentor/mentee relationship of Twelve and Bill, or the found family dynamic of Eleven and the Ponds. She deserved the darkness, depth, complexity and nuance that was afforded her predecessors, to go too far and have to be pulled back. She deserved to struggle, to not be right all the time, to fight and to almost give up, and after all that deserved to pull herself up and be brilliant, be mad, be the Doctor.
I will always love and appreciate Jodie for all she did. She gave everything to this role, and I just wish this role had given everything to her.
TOM BAKER
This photo gives off a powerful energy
At this point I could see a photo of Tom Baker in literally any situation imaginable and I wouldn’t even be surprised. “Yep that’s just what Tom Baker does,” I write in the tags
he’s just like that
the doctor just walks around like i’m a slut….i’m a war criminal….i’m so sad…..i put on funny outfits……
I honestly forgot about Doctor Who and had a horrible several seconds of deep concern about your Primary Care Provider
Not gonna lie still thinking about the absolute bomb that was the Doctor Who episode where they reveal that the TARDIS requires like eight or something people to pilot and that’s why the Doctor looks ridiculous when he flies it… like.. that was SO simple and yet SUCH a good way to instantly convey so much loneliness… like bro.. bro it requires a family… a whole bunch of people… but they just fly alone and make do…
timelords are so fucking funny. their weaknesses are ginger and aspirin. (on that note: martha didn’t have to pretend to be making a weapon she literally could have just said she’s searching for the last open cvs on earth.) they can read minds but only if they hold your head like a ten year old holding a bowling ball. the doctor, and i cannot stress this enough, canonically flies with his mind a couple times in classic. it’s never brought up again.
this is EXACTLY the kind of bullshit i’m talking about thank you so much
when a time lord says “i’m undressing you with my eyes” it means behind the bridge of the nose there’s a camera and a tiny computer running photoshop

What's your favorite theory about the TARDIS? (Mine's that she intentionally has faults and failures to get the Doctor to dote on her.)
I mean, this is basically canon rather than a theory, but I love the idea that the reason the TARDIS always lands in the middle of trouble is because she specifically takes the Doctor to where they're needed. (I also have a theory that the reason the TARDIS is drawn to Earth is because she has an innate need to blend in, and since the chameleon circuit is broken and she can't change her appearance to match her location, she keeps trying to go to the location that will match her appearance.)
Oh, and I have a theory about how the Doctor learned to fly the TARDIS, which is that they... never actually did exactly. One and Two clearly don't know how to pilot the ship properly - their destinations are entirely random - and it's only Three who starts being able to land in specific locations. Of course, this only happens after he's pardoned by the Time Lords and they return his dematerialisation circuit and knowledge of time travel. So my theory is that in the process they also imparted knowledge of how to, like, actually operate a TARDIS lol
every dr who fan is like "the doctor is a mess no one can fix and almost solely forms relationships full of unhealthy power dynamics and a severe lack of communication. I wish they were my best friend"
I can't fix them but I could go with them to space and say "wow, I can't believe we're in space!"
throwaway episode shakespeare code brings up that knowing something's True Name grants you control over it and the Doctor/every other renegade time lord is immune to this by virtue of going by a title, something that 1) seems like a very big reason they might ditch their names and 2) is never brought up again
there's no best dr who, there's only the one you imprinted on like a baby bird
truly one of the greatest writing choices in dr who (2005) is building the time lords up as a dignified and sophisticated society & then the first thing you actually see of them is the hell portal they force kids to stare at to receive their government designated trauma
the portal is at the end of a dirt path lined with torches in the middle of an abandoned field
this is treated as a college entrance exam

Ten and Donna are himbo/lesbian solidarity I don't take criticism
I hadn’t even considered this you’re a genius
This isn't wrong
(Not my gif)
if doctor who was brave enough it'd open a season on an unbroken tracking shot through the tardis with libraries and forests and aquariums and all that. they wouldn't have any money left to make the rest of the season but thats a small price to pay to please me specifically
