conrad and mrs flood nervously presenting the first draft of the wish world to the rani and she just sits in silence for the whole powerpoint and then takes a long sip of brandy and is like add dinosaurs.

I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself.

holy shit he did the same thing with Martha i just realized that…. oh my god

How RTD has treated Belinda Chandra should go down in Whovian history alongside how Martha Jones was treated. By the way. Doctor Who needs to start actually respecting their companions of color and they clearly haven't learned a damn thing. It is so hard to live in a world where Moffat did it best. Moffat? Moffat wrote the best companion of color? How???

[vettelsavatar]

so we had:

an indian woman talking to another indian women about blood purity

the indian rani being a dictator and then getting killed for no reason while the white rani survives

the indian companion being randomly shoved into the role of mother and then getting sidelined in favour of the white companion from the previous series

the black, openly queer doctor regenerating into a white woman from a previous series

russell t davies back to his old tricks i see

Fuckin insane (derogatory) move to pull with Belinda. Rewrite time so she has a child and sideline her by quite literally putting her in a box much of the episode, then have that child Vanish and her forget it, then give her the child back by changing reality AGAIN so that she's always had said child and act like this is a win? Woman Gets Happy Ending With Child played entirely straight as far as I can tell??

[vettelsavatar]

okay this is probably why I felt so icky after reality war!!!! i knew there was something off about belinda and there was a reason why she wasn’t clicking for me here (literally paused the episode to call my mom and discuss this exact thing) but i think those concerns got overwhelmed by everything happening in the episode’s ending. like wtf was this??? belinda just felt so wrong

I don't really have the headspace or energy to do a proper rant but changing Belinda from a like strong willed person who wants to go home and not travel with the doctor by choice, into A Mother Who Wants To Return To Her Child is such fucking bullshit.

[vettelsavatar]

also shitposting aside it should've been a horror movie. belinda chandra should've looked down at that child and known she would've died for her. she would've killed for her. and known also that those aren't her feelings. this isn't her child. fifteen wanted this dream so badly that he rewrote belinda's whole life. this ending isn't just a tragedy for the doctor

[vettelsavatar]

THIS!!! i felt like i barely got to know him at all before he regenerated. i wish we had at least gotten another season with him!

anyone else, regardless of the billie piper of it all, really fucking upset that ncuti gatwa isn't the doctor anymore

he was SUCH a good one. SO good. we had nowhere NEAR enough time with him with two short ass series.

[vettelsavatar]

wish world being like "its bad to force women into being nothing but mothers" and then the finale of her own season literally shoves belinda in a closet with a baby during all the action like okayyy

[vettelsavatar]

ILL MISS YOU SO MUCH KING 🫶🫶🫶

In all seriousness, can we give this gorgeous, talented man the appreciation he deserves - what an absolutely fantastic portrayal he gave us, Ncuti Gatwa you will always be famous ❤️

modern who: fuuuuck we want to do all of these cool things but we only have 8 45-minute episodes to work with... let's just edit it like a TikTok and remove all the breathing room and character development

classic who: fuuuuck this one has to be six episodes? We already padded it so much to get it to four... fine I guess we can add a subplot where they have to get K-9 neutered

[vettelsavatar]

spoilers for the reality war!!!!
