That sounds okay. Think we can get that many?
One or two would also be all right.

Good question! I'm most attached to 3-5, but I'm flexible if one of the >others is your favorite.

Ooh, good choice. That's a six-parter, so we'll need three hours.
What time zone are you in? I'm GMT -7. I could easily do today or
tomorrow.

Moutain Time Zone?
Pacific, actually. Did I do the math wrong? Ah well.
I'm pretty flexible over the whole weekend, so if you have a preference,
pick something. I'm hoping a few more people will join, but two's a
great start.

Doesn't look like it. Let's just pick a time.
Do you want to do it today? If so, we'd better start soon. I say we aim
for tomorrow, Monday, at 5:00 p.m. Pacific time.

Which is your favourite doctor?
That's a tough call. It's probably Four overall, but I also like Five
quite a bit.
From the new era, I liked all the Doctors in different ways (though Ten
got very whiny), until the show itself started collapsing. I dropped out >partway through the Capaldi years -- Capaldi was good, but the show had
lost direction.
How about you?

Save doctor Who! Retcon the Timeless Child!
I've only heard of that indirectly, so it's easy to ignore. :)
This show wasn't originally supposed to be about how superduperspecial
and important the Doctor is. He's a madman in a blue box. In earlier >iterations, it was clear that the Doctor was just some guy -- a Time
Lord, but not a very highly placed one, just some guy who stole a TARDIS
and ran off to see the universe. He has made a name for himself in some >corners through his actions, but he's not the freakin' Chosen One.
The scariest take on the Time Lords remains The War Games. I was also
okay with the reboot's take that there'd been a Time War and Gallifrey
and Skaros were both gone. That was killer, actually. It respected the
old show while also providing a fresh direction for the new one.
Now... I'm not sure what's going on now. I guess the Doctor is the key
to the universe or something. I don't want to watch that mess.

RTD 1 and Moffat did keep that until The Doctor's Wife.
Is that when you figure it went off the rails? I didn't like that
episode -- it was much more "Look at me, I'm Neil Gaiman" than it was
Doctor Who. I thought the show stayed decent longer, though.
"The Robots of Sherwood" was when I stopped. I didn't really decide to
stop. I just didn't want to watch any more of that.
If I had to pick a single point where it got bad, it would probably be >turning the Master into a woman. MISI would have been a fine new
villain, but instead they did that, being progressive at the expense of
the story and the world.
He turned back into a dude, but it shouldn't have happened in the first >place. They gave us way too many episodes which we had to ignore in
order to keep watching. Eventually, there were too many to ignore.
