I have had this post in the drafts for SO LONG but here are some ideas I would have should I become the showrunner for doctor who

Finish up the Susan storyline started in Interstellar Song Contest while we still have Carol Ann Ford with us

Do more stories centered around a non British/American culture. Story and the Engine was a highlight for me from series 15, and it was primarily because of the black culture featured. Whether it be another black-focused episode, or an episode focused on a culture not seen in episodes before (South Korea? Brazil?), I would love to see more

Bring back the master, and ideally have them be more of a serious, cunning villain. We've had (since 2005) manic masters in Simm and Dhawan, and a more redemptive master in Gomez, I think it could be interesting to go back to an almost Delgado Bond villain-esque master

Redeem Omega. No I am not over how he was treated in Reality War. Given that he was supposedly Like That because The Rani was expecting it, perhaps if someone else (the Master?) opened the gate to his dimension without that perception of Omega he could come back as a proper time lord

Experiment more with episode length. I think longer stories with an overarching plot that span multiple episodes while taking place in multiple time periods (Utopia -> Last of the Time Lords, Extremis -> Lie of the Land, Flux) are very cool and I would like to see more stories vary in length

Write at least one multi doctor story. I don't think it matters too much which doctors, I think any combination could be made interesting

Write at least one episode with really threatening daleks. Let's see a single dalek decimate an army the way we saw in Dalek or Resolution, or strike fear in the hearts of those who have faced them before as in The Stolen Earth

Write at least one episode that makes you ask "wtf just happened". Midnight, 73 Yards, that kind of vibe

And of course:

Give EVERYONE a sonic screwdriver. The doctor gets a new screwdriver, the master gets a new sonic laser. Fuck it, being Rassilon back and give HIM a sonic screwdriver. I LOVE sonic devices and the merchandising opportunities would be off the charts

Obsessed with this TARDIS content. There are an infinite number of rooms, and one of them is where the doctor keeps Amy's model tardis. Another is the swimming pool. She's powered by a mechanical tree of life that lets her mold her architecture to its whim. It protects the people it loves even when it's in danger, and traps the ones it doesn't inside itself. She taps into the heart of space and time and is subject to the laws of thermodynamics. It's powered by a whole entire dying star. She also plays host to a couple of zombie critters. The zombie critters are her doctor and his companion. It's doing everything it can, even as it's actively dying, to protect her doctor. Just this once it wants to be saved. Truly the character of all time.

ref and ramble below the cut

Did a color edit of my ref so I could play with some neon lights. I had just picked up a new brush pack for Krita and I was very excited to play with some grittier textures >.> Quite partial to the grayscale on this one as well.

i love how whenever the master loses their memory they default to being good and the only time i can remember the doctor losing their memory theyre an asshole. its so delicious and just perfect. i know this isnt an original thought but it still rotates around in my brain

“What would the Doctor do?” I whisper to myself as I put an unnecessary amount of sugar cubes in my coffee.

You know what haunts me? Rose never learned what happened to Jack. She watched him die during Stolen Earth/Journey’s End and she saw him come back later but nobody ever explained it to her. She doesn’t know. She has no idea what she did.

idk why i think it would be so funny to watch like a regular hi def modern episode of doctor who edited to look like a telesnap lost episode recreation so u make all the audio a bit shittier and take the grainiest black and white photos of the most random parts of the episode and then like a one minute section of video that u think would be seen as most objectionable to a tv censor from australia in 1965

Regeneration is so important that Gallifrey must have celebrations about it. What do they look like? First regeneration parties? Last regeneration parties? Does everyone wish someone a happy new body, and may it fit better than the previous? Or is it shameful? Are planned regenerations controversial, or are sudden regenerations tragic? Do some people hate making a big affair of it? Do they have dinner parties where they test what food they like now?

The way Doctor Who uses modern day Earth as a setting for whatever unhinged sci-fi story it wants to tell and then moves on and forgets about it all is so funny. This is a world where the British Prime Minister assassinated the American President live on air, and not once was it ever mentioned again.

How am I supposed to focus on school when there’s literally doctor who available on the internet

“I asked ChatGPT.” Ok, well, I asked the doctor and they went on a long unrelated rant full of name drops before finally admitting they had no clue what the answer was.
