    It’s been a while since I followed Dr. Who news so I’m pro out of the loop. Why is this labeled “season 1?” Is this not just another regeneration? Is it a reboot or something?

      It’s moving to Disney so they wanted a fresh start. Something something “confused new viewers won’t know why it’s series 14”.

          Can’t speak for people as a whole, but I’d prefer they didn’t. Disney’s reach is already asinine. They did produce a few good Star Wars shows though, so maybe hope isn’t all lost.

          I didn’t much care for the writing the last few seasons though anyways, I’m not sure exactly what happened but around halfway through Capaldi I felt like the show became very two dimensional. Shame for Jodie Whittaker too because even though I did not like her seasons I did think she made the very best of them.
