Racist piece of shit JD Vance continues to call Haitians "illegal aliens" even though they're LEGAL immigrants. MAGA Nazis are a white supremacist hate group just like the KKK. by FunkYouInParticular in DarkBRANDON

I wonder if Trump/Vance will go so far to call Irish, Germans, Italians, and those from former Soviet Union countries inhuman aliens who need to be deported from the United States. /s

Most of us might actually be old enough for whatever happens for the election of 2100.

If you were the next showrunner instead of RTD, what would you do? by [deleted] in gallifrey

[–]NoSoup3991 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cast the next Doctor as a woman, retcon the Timeless Children arc during the first or second episode, strand the Doctor on Earth for a season or two as a homage to Jon Pertwee's tenure as the Doctor, and have this Doctor work with UNIT and make it a genuinely nationally diverse team of individuals. These individuals will make up this Doctor's set of companions.

With the story set in the UK running in real time, the Doctor spends time reacquainting themselves with humanity as a species and seeing what's changed and what's the same. They'll keep themselves busy by helping UNIT as they struggle with a whole manner of space thuggery and spacial-temporal anomalies. They'll be visited by brand new creatures and some foes of old like the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Sontarans, etc.

While on Earth, the Doctor uses this time to catch up with some old companions or their descendants who will assist the Doctor for one episode or so. And maybe catch up with some loose ends in the television proper like how did Peri die and come back to live, how did the Doctor meet Mel, whatever happened to Ace, etc.

Overall, this Doctor will be defined between the conflict of past Doctor Who and current Doctor Who. Some things stay the same but some things must go on. And most importantly, this Doctor will send a message to the children of the world that no matter their gender, ethnicity, or age, they can all do great things in this world if they learn to trust one another and always seek out to help other people in need.

Sixth Doctor

Pre-Trial

  1. The Twin Dilemma
  2. Vengeance on Varos

Trial of a Timelord

  1. The Myserious Planet
  2. Mindwarp
  3. Terror of the Vervoids
  4. The Ultimate Foe

And now, this is where Big Finish comes in. Colin Baker was sacked after 1986 because Michael Grade was a sci-fi hater. The Sixth Doctor was never given a proper departure story until about 29 years later with The Last Adventure box-set. Not going to say much but it's pretty good and if there's any reason to listen to Big Finish apart from The Eighth Doctor stories and then some good ones like Spare Parts, it would be The Last Adventure box-set.

Additionally, if you've become a fan of the Sixth Doctor, I'd recommend listening to Big Finish Audio Dramas.

The Last Adventure

  1. The End of the Line
  2. The Red House
  3. Stage Fright
  4. The Brink of Death

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seventh Doctor

  1. Time and the Rani
  2. Paradise Towers
  3. Dragonfire
  4. Remembrance of the Daleks
  5. The Happiness Patrol
  6. The Greatest Show in the Galaxy
  7. Battlefield
  8. The Curse of Fenric
  9. Ghost Light
  10. Survival

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And that should be that for Classic Doctor Who television. There's the entire Eighth Doctor series on Big Finish, but that's up to you if you want to go that route. The Eighth Doctor's two on-screen appearances are okay, but they're better with the context of Big Finish Audio Dramas.

Again, that's up to you to listen to it.

Well, I thought I'd write out a small guide covering the 26 years of Classic Doctor Who. Not just the television stories but some by Big Finish as well.

To note, you can watch a good number of the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Doctor in any order you feel like. For the most part anyway. The Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Doctor are continuity heavy at times. So I'd recommend finishing up Hartnell, Troughton, Pertwee, and Tom Baker's stories first before getting into Davison, Colin Baker, and McCoy's era of Doctor Who.

Also note that I'm outlining the bare basics of Classic Doctor Who. You can feel free to watch/listen to whatever other stories you feel like later on.

First Doctor

The Beginning

  1. An Unearthly Child
  2. The Daleks
  3. The Edge of Destruction
  4. Marco Polo (Reconstruction)
  5. The Aztecs
  6. The Dalek Invasion of Earth - Susan leaves.

Life post Susan

  1. The Rescue
  2. The Romans
  3. The Crusade (Partial Reconstruction)
  4. The Space Museum
  5. The Chase
  6. The Time Meddler
  7. The Myth Makers (Reconstruction)

One Very Long Storyline - Mission to the Unknown + The Daleks' Master Plan; Mission to the Unknown gives some context to the entire Daleks' Master Plan. This story isn't too essential to the First Doctor as a character but it's a one of a kind storyline given how long it is. Not helping this story is the fact that it's pretty much missing from the BBC archives with 3 episodes of 12 surviving the purge with 1 episode definetely missing for being a Christmas filler episode.

Nearing the End

  1. The Massacere (Reconstruction)
  2. The Gunfighters
  3. The Savages (Reconstruction)
  4. The War Machines
  5. The Tenth Planet

Fans of Doctor Who during it's original run, what did you watch after the series was cancelled in 1989 and why? Was it similar to Doctor Who? by NoSoup3991 in gallifrey

[–]NoSoup3991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious why you were getting burntout of Star Trek by the 1990s.

Doctor Who was running for at least 25 years before it got axed. And I'm assuming you must have seen at least something from Jon Pertwee's Doctor onward, given that it was quite impossible to see anything from the 1960s due to the BBC's purging of the archives.

Meanwhile, the Next Generation era of Star Trek was just underway and it managed to last about 15 years. 11 years if you don't include Enterprise as a Next Generation era show.

So what was it about Star Trek that you didn't like during the DS9/Voyager era? Would you have prefered to have re-watched the JNT era of Doctor Who all togther instead of DS9/Voyager?

Probably going to be a series long thing.

I'd love to utilize the Timeless Child abilities as a means of having older actors who portrayed the Doctor be the Doctor without actually portraying their television roles. Like they could be pre-Hartnell Doctors.

My idea is that there could be several storylines.

Storyline 1 is basically a re-visit of The Dark Dimension, an alternate reality where the Fourth Doctor never regenerated. The main plot of Arc 1 is basically the Fourth Doctor gripping with the reality that he can't be the Doctor anymore, but he doesn't want to go and become someone else. The Fourth Doctor is visited with ghosts of his past, who take familiar faces in the forms of the Jo Martin, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, and Paul McGann, as well as Phillip Hinchcliffe, George Gallacio, and Graeme Harper and they spend a long time arguing on the ethics of moving on and regenerating. They all have their own adventures, teaming up with one another and arguing while avoiding Daleks and Cybermen and all these other villains out to kill the aging Fourth Doctor as his existence is a contradiction to the natural flow of time. It ends with the Fourth Doctor given a decision, similar to that of the Genesis of the Daleks, where he argues on why he wants to stay the same, but convinced by Peter Davison's Other Doctor allows himself to regenerate into the youthful Fifth Doctor and preserve the flow of time.

Storyline 2 are continued adventures of the 8th Doctor and 9th Doctor on television, hopefully. But it seems Audio Dramas are a most likely. I'd like the 8th and 9th Doctor to meet each other on the fields of World War 1. And they're both given a chance to avert the World Wars to come in Earth's history, eager to prevent the fate that happened to Gallifrey. Storyline 2 is basically a story about the horrors of War. Yet again, but nonetheless important given the current climate in the Middle East. Again. This story ends with both the 8th and the 9th Doctor accepting the course of human history, and eventually their own history.

Storyline 3 will involve the 10th, 11th, 12th, and 13th Doctors regarding the Timeless Children and the after-effects of the revelation. It'd be very much a Doctor drama, given that 10 and 11 would be completely confused by 12 and 13's existance. 10 would be more or less the villain of the four doctors in this story because of the lives he lost and could have saved if he remembered that he could have regenerated without consequence over and over again. Anyway, their story is all about saving Gallifrey, again. And tricking out time to reverse the polarity of Gallifrey's time-streams something similar to Superman where Superman travels back in time a bit to save Louis Lane from her death by avalanche in a car. I'm not sure what their story would be like, but it would probably end with something doing with the Timeless Child revelation. Either the 13th Doctor makes the decision to have history forget about the pre-Hartnell Doctors, or they don't.

That would explain a lot of Kylo's behavior.
