It's bad enough to have them on, but be portrayed as stupid, weak-minded, degenerate, etc. White people need to stop being so masochistic in viewing something that openly insults their existence, and go find something better to do. TV is nothing but a lobotomy machine that zombifies everyone who sits in front of it. What a way to waste your life-- staring at a glowing screen all day and killing your brain cells.

    Live Television is in trouble anyway, young people don't watch TV, they look at their phones. I predict that live TV will die with the Baby Boomers.

    I only use a TV set for watching DVDs and playing video games.

    Apparently IT was considered for the next Dr Who.

    Heck, why can't the next doctor be conjoined twins?


    Maybe the next doctor will identify as non-binary, and viewers will never be informed of his or her true birth gender.

    Maybe the next doctor will have a different sexual orientation... probably bisexual.

    The next doctor could be a midget. Or how about a disabled person in a wheelchair.

    How about the doctor is a woman who gets pregnant, and then in the next reincarnation gets turned into a man, who is still pregnant. The show would then receive all sorts of praise from the media and trans movement.

    Could the next doctor have a French accent? (Probably something unthinkable to the original British audience in the 1960s)

    That's not entirely true. In episode 4 of The Mysterious Planet (1986), the Master explained that the Valeyard was an "amalgamation of the darker sides of [the Doctor's] nature, somewhere between [his] twelfth and final incarnation".

    Since this is a long-running sci-fi series, with many twists and turns, they will undoubtedly find some way to extend the doctor's lifespan.
    The series implied that the Valeyard had no more regenerations left and had to steal them from the doctor in the past (which would imply a time continuity paradox, if he had succeeded, but there would probably be some way in the story to overcome that).

    According to the Master's alleged account, the Valeyard acted as the prosecutor in the [sixth] Doctor's trial in exchange for his seven remaining regenerations. This would mean the doctor would have at least a twelfth regeneration, if the timeline had remained unaltered.

    Oh. I thought it was 13. But, I wasn't all that invested in it anyways. We watched it for Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant. Never really got into Matt Smith. Then it went woke with Jodie Whittaker.
