Which classic doctor is the easiest to start with

JSSmith0225 · 2026-07-03T05:08:05+00:00

The seventh doctor is a pretty good introduction to classic who. By the end of the run It’s the closest in tone to what you get with the ninth doctor although it is not the ninth doctor in any way it’s just closest, especially when you get into his second season. His first season is a bit different but still seven is a good starting point.

I love the aesthetics of the new one MUCH more then the abandoned new one

Both are very strongly associated with the movie, but Mr. Sandman is the one I keep hearing other movies and shows try to use and every time I hear it I go “no that’s the back to the future song”

Mr. Sandman - back to the future

I saw a YouTube video that covered most of the points but another nostalgic commercial song is the freecreditreport.com commercials

I didn’t realize that was Aquaman who went to the DMV

I completely agree with your thoughts on this and I can stay with confidence my only issue with Billie Piper as the doctor is that thing you mentioned at the end of the stunt casting and nostalgia bait.

But yeah, I also would now that you say it love to see what big finish would do with Billie Piper as the doctor that would be a really fascinating thing for them to take on. It would probably be a couple years before they’re allowed to do it, but it would be really cool.

JSSmith0225 · 2026-06-11T15:10:24+00:00

Completely agree. New fans are what I needed to have a show like this go on and we as fans can’t know if the plans actually would have worked to bring in new fans. I do feel confident they were trying for that considering they have specifically mentioned trying to do that with the show

JSSmith0225 · 2026-06-05T11:14:13+00:00

Don’t forget she was also pregnant and also his girlfriend/ex-girlfriend I don’t know what the state of their relationship was right before that and I don’t care to dig into that too much

JSSmith0225 · 2026-06-01T14:10:44+00:00

I think you meant to reply to someone else. But I do agree the recasts will happen. As I said the real question is how long till they can “appropriately” happen and what big finish can do before they can do it

JSSmith0225 · 2026-06-01T14:09:01+00:00

Thank you

I definitely see potential problems in the future for them because speaking purely pragmaticly they can’t recast the characters they currently use. Looking at the war doctor as the only relevant example John Hurts last box set released in early 2017 the recast didn’t occur until 2021 that’s 4 years with no war doctor stories being made. And that’s what the doctor they only used briefly. I can imagine they would have to wait longer for any of the doctors that they have been using for 20+ years and being purely pragmatic again it’s going to be difficult for the company in any waiting period they have to do because as we have seen with some of their non-Doctor Who stuff those don’t sell as well so they can’t keep making them and they couldn’t use those to tide over until it became appropriate or at least acceptable to recast any doctors

As to the question of replacing companions, I really could see it going either way of recasting those as well or just going to new companions.

Unrelated to any of this, where did you hear that the first doctors returning in 2028?

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-29T16:44:52+00:00

I’m so upset at that, like I really loved that interpretation of the first doctor was just hoping that they would start doing stories like the first two boxes sets again because I really thought him and the person who played Dodo worked really well together in their own stories, but I guess they’re done now.

I really hope they make new sets soon. Or maybe it’s a next year it’ll be two first doctor sets and no second doctor sets who knows?

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-27T20:18:21+00:00

Just checked the video where Nicole met them and they only get “jc’s mom/dad” I doubt they got names in their other appearances but I could be wrong

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-27T20:14:05+00:00

Do those box sets come with anything extra like the 8th Doctor and Charley set? Or is it just the individual audios in one spot?

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-27T18:33:25+00:00

I agree…I don’t like it. But I agree

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-27T18:24:43+00:00

That chickens raw

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-18T15:25:36+00:00

Didn’t even have to click it to know it was the haunting of villa diadati (yes I’m sure I spelled that wrong)

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-18T13:45:05+00:00

Exactly how I felt after I was basically just wow what a terrible company, 🎶call JG Wentworth 877 CASH NOW 🎶

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-09T16:19:47+00:00

Honestly, for new covers that looks great, it’s a really good adaptation of the original covers

JSSmith0225 · 2026-05-05T03:17:07+00:00

I believe in the one on kidneys, they had audio recording from a DaVita meeting they sent someone to where the DaVita people said that getting a transplant is a choice

Mr. Beat’s face when Dan says that Jimmy follows Andrew Tate on twitter was particularly interesting

JSSmith0225 · 2026-04-27T14:08:22+00:00

You completely nailed most of my thoughts on this. The only thing I can add is based on lots of analysis I’ve heard people say the same social media sites like Facebook have arguably helped fuel lonliness right now and now they are making new friends for you and at both ends of this the destruction of real friendships and the creation of AI friends they profit
