DOCTOR WHO RATINGS NOSEDIVE: WORST SINCE 1986
Doctor Who Ratings Nosedive: Least Viewed Since 1986

Doctor Who suffers another ratings low for the current series under star Jodie Whittaker and showrunner Chris Chibnall.

Following last week's uptick, Sunday's episode nosedived as only 3.97 million viewers tuned in, which now marks Sunday's episode as the least viewed episode since 1986.

The loss amounts to 240K viewers that decided not to tune in to the latest episode from the previous Sunday, and a 910k loss since the first episode of Season 12 that debuted on New Year's Day.

There hasn't been any word of potential changes at the BBC in regards to the direction of the show as 13th Doctor Jodie Whittaker confirmed she will be back for Season 13.

And regarding the 7-day DVR viewings being better, viewers obviously skip the commercials, which doesn't make advertisers too happy (who, ya know, help pay the bills, except in this instance Doctor Who is publicly funded so ratings and viewership probably don't matter...).


Doctor Who fans not happy
Fans, again, are voicing the displeasure with the series.

"I like Whittaker a lot. I find her great as The Doctor. The writing is not the best indeed. But the only thing that really annoys me is the whole three companions thing. It's not working for me. The actors have zero chemistry. Same Doctor, one companion and back to basics in writing. That would be the best imo," commented a Redditor.

"It's because the show is getting pretty much unwatchable. It is not because its a female Doctor either it's because the showrunner is a clown who has no idea what he is doing," added another Redditor.


"This narrative really died after the first five or so episodes. Admittedly, whenever people called out the sh-t writing and boring companions beforehand, someone would inevitably pop up with a bunch of -ist names," said a fan on Reddit.

"It's a shame that the first female doctor run is plagued by so many issues that have nothing to do with Whittaker. Even more so considering it came after Capaldi's run, which I consider the best of the series. At the end of it, I was excited to watch it every single Sunday and ten episodes later Chibnall had me considering whether I should even bother checking out the new season," said another Redditor.

So what i've highlighted is not gobbledygook that you should have edited out after you'd read what you'd posted.

I wasn't talking about the viewpoints, couldn't care less about them.

What you post is a reflection on you.

You could of course not spam the place with links and just post your own opinions like the majority of others do.

It's spam because it's a link to take a reader away from Cult Labs and to a designated website.

Had you just joined you'd have been banned straight away for this.

Just saying.

Anyway and enjoy the rest of your evening, gag.

The latest Doctor Who Magazine has a good article on the making of Doctor Who and the Silurians with director Timothy Combe.

All the new episode previews are just the same as the others. Pointless. Tell you nothing.

Sorry,

I'm going to take a step back from posting for a while ,


Me and my partner have had a huge row over her kids,
I've had a falling out with my mum,
Just found out a good friend has been beat up in a bad way and in hospital,
Then the problem with the car and huge bill has pissed me off,
Plus other things as well.
Like my partner health has deteriorated and due to go in hospital soon for serious operation because she got several cysts and might have to have her womb etc removed.


I feel as in things in life are getting me down and getting on top of me,

So I'm going to go back to the dr for depression and ask if I can have counselling,

I Admit I didn't read your post properly and misread it.

If I do post it will be slim at the moment

Think I need to get my head sorted and life back in order, feel as if I'm slowly cracking up.

Hug then dear boy.

You take care,gag, and try to get the help you need.

Don't feel you have to stay away from here though, you don't and you are most welcome.
