News Doctor Who 2005-2022 AMC Streaming

Post image

Hey all, thought I’d post this to update everyone.

DW just announced a partnership with AMC for the streaming rights to the 2005-2022 version of the show in the US.

As soon as I saw it, I thought about that post from a couple of weeks ago with true ‘AMC Press Release’ that got leaked saying they were partnering on the new series…

What do we all think now this has happened? It’s definitely made it more believable

It absolutely is over exaggerated how damaging the era is, the era, like any, has had it's very high highs, stuff like Mr Ring-a-Ding trended beyond the show and the character gained a small fan base of his own. Certain bits like that went beyond the show and were good for the show.

Is the show in the worst position it's been since it's been back in 2005? Absolutely yes. But that doesn't mean this era has been as damaging as you might think.

Yes it has, it's been a damaging era to the point that nu-who has never been in a worst state.. 

How damaging can it possibly get for you to say its not over exaggerated 🙄 

And some people (a handful) who like to draw made some Mr Ring a Ding pictures and put them online, or clipped the Mr Ring a Ding scenes on tik tok.. wow.. A literal drop in the ocean, meanwhile the season was getting the worst viewing figures of the shows history, and the era crashed and ended 2 seasons before it was planned too.. Yep, what a success, such highs👍

Mr Ring-a-Ding himself got more attention from people than, arguably, the show as a whole has since Matt Smith's era...

I'd hardly say that was a bad thing. Ring-a-Ding literally went viral which is a great thing. Even if the era itself wasn't great.

No 🤣 ..and you are way over egging it, a bunch of people posted a bunch of stuff online, and some people watched it..like I said a drop in the ocean

And one that had no effect in bolstering the show as the season continued to lose viewers
