I want this plot to happen so bad, you guys.

The new Dr Who is a woman! I wonder if they will top it off with a black love interest & a weedy white cuck assistant that she friendzones? pic.twitter.com/qbQ0pqPosl

Add Bill being back to that and i'm stanning (wait, is BILL the black love interest? Cos her cute friendship with the Doctor gave me life so idk if I can ship them but i'll still do it if it makes people mad)!!

[hellforheaven]

omg please

[moustacherider]

Lmao that was the funniest shit. I would be laughing in my brothers face if he did that

[sabrina54]

Lol link?

[stillglows]

i'm all for jodie as thirteen but at the same time i hope they picked her because she was the best choice and not because WE NEED A WOMEN FOR THE SAKE OF HAVING A WOMAN GUYS. i'm a cynic i'm sorry.

that said i'm totally gonna cosplay her because we have the same dyed blonde hair with dark roots, and it's about the same length so...

i mean if kris marshall was the other available choice....

[stillglows]

lmfao was he seriously that much of a contender

[demented_21]

lol ppl were saying he was the favorite but who knows. his name was thrown around a lot tho, kind of like capaldi's name was at the time, iirc

[demented_21]

lmao i love colin baker's ~i'm not sad, i'm disappointed~ attitude towards the manbabies. i'm sure that stings. they can't exactly turn against him.

[nomorefrostbite]

lmao would they even dare?? His tweets were so great. These dinosaur whovian nerd bros are trash tbh.

A bunch of my friends are big on the Trek fandom too and arguing with pissed off Trekkies last night who were just as bad and disgusting about Jodie. I was like... it comes as literally no surprise that Trekkie broflakes are just the same kind of trash, this is why I don't engage with straight men in that fandom anymore.

Like these so-called 'fans' actually missed the ENTIRE point of both these shows.... how.

[demented_21]

ikr? the top comment is all ~omg i'm shocked you would say that colin~ and you can feel the butthurt through the screen tbh :')

ughhhhh i can only imagine. literally what is the point? why are they so disgusting? why don't they ~get over it~ and ~it's just a show~ and whatever they always say to female viewers?

mte mte. it's disappointing but not at all surprising.

sis we all know some trek fans are the worrrrst, the ones who shat on Janeway can diaf. Did they miss the memo about what trek is all about? Ugh.

she was so good in broadchurch. the first season of broadchurch is a perfect season of television imo ugh. olivia coleman also would have made a great doctor come to think of it

[nomorefrostbite]

She would!!! Olivia Colman would be a PERFECT Doctor imho. It's the kind of role which necessitates you having nothing else going on, nothing lined up, and being fine with moving to Cardiff for about 3 years of your life though, which I don't think is something everyone with a certain profile wants especially as it's not like a ~career defining role~ once you're past a certain point, which imho Olivia Colman is.

I love ha though :(

[dangeronshow]

yeah she's definitely got too much going on to be a good fit but she would get the doctor's demeanor down pat :( as long as she's in lots of other stuff i'm not too mad abt it tho lol
