Doctor Who Fanclub!

[Rabbitheart]

geez I was totally surprised when I saw that. I never thought that Disney would be involved with BBC or Doctor Who. I thought it was neat, but I never really had any difficulty watching off of BBC America. Plus I feel like in the David Tennant and Christopher Eccleston days (<3 & <3) there was a lot of innuendos and adult humor that the kids who watch on Disney XD may not get. cx
As Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi took up the role as the Doctor, I've noticed that the show has become a lot more kid-friendly and they've almost completely removed all of the adult humor.

Well, from what I was reading, Disney XD is apparently meant for the "older children" and is basically their action-adventure, sci-fi channel, so that's why they're airing Doctor Who there. So I suppose the "older children" might get the innuendos. They're playing all the episodes from "New Earth" to "Journey's End," so technically not the entire run of Tennant, but most of it.
I'm kinda excited for the marathon that they're going to run. According to several of the articles that I read, Disney XD is set to have marathons:

Beginning Saturday, June 13th, and going through Saturday, June 20th, XD will air eight episodes per day, in marathon chunks, and on the 14th

So yeah. Also, so clarify, in case anyone was worried. Disney does not own Doctor Who, they're just getting the rights to air seasons 2 through 4.
If you guys want to learn more about it, you can google "Disney channel deal to air Doctor Who" since that's what I googled to read the articles.

Knowing how this sort of thing works though, I just hope that there will be enough people viewing Doctor Who on Disney XD because if there is, then Disney XD might continue the deal and try to get the rights to air more seasons.

you know what this means?
This means that all these kids who watch DW for the first time will see 10!
Disney and I are friends now!


also, under no circumstances whatsoever shall joss whedon touch DW.
there's no reason that should ever happen. but still.

I'm already friends with Disney, but this makes me more interested to what that channel. XD
But why are you worried about Joss Whedon touching Doctor Who? From what I've been reading, Steven Moffat will still be doing the show until like...season 10.

@lucifer ~ That's what I'm thinking. I kinda like that it'll mean more people will watch it. I'm not sure if it's going to be edited or not when they play the episodes. I haven't had an opportunity to watch any of the episodes they've shown on Disney XD yet, but I'm going to try to be able to just so I know how they're planning on doing this. XD

I'm not really worried about it. I was just thinking about his tendency to destroy people's hearts, and decided I never wanted him to touch Doctor Who.

[reichenbach falls]

[Dead Cellist]

Guys, I need your help.


Which Doctor is on this?
The 12th? or maybe the war doctor? or?? I can't pinpoint which one it actually is.

[Rabbitheart]

@strawberrykiwi ~ It's hard to say really. I would just say that's in a nondescript Doctor, so it can be whichever one you want it to be. XD I have shirt like that, a nondescript Doctor on the shirt and I really don't care that you can't see much more than a silhouette, I'm showing off my love for my fandom, that's all I really care about. XD

@Sapling. & @AngelOzwin ~ Welcome to the Tardis you two! I hope you enjoy it here! :3

[livingvirus.exe]

I'd say it's either 12 or 10, the height seems right for those two, and I don't see 11's floppy hair, but like Rabbit said, it doesn't really matter <3 It's the Doctor and TARDIS

Also, yes! I can't watch DW on BBC, so glad it'll be on Disney.
But I am not okay with them not showing Nine.
Not okay.
This is not alright with me. *throws things*

[Rabbitheart]

I'm sure there's a good reason why they're only showing 10's run.
You have to remember, this is probably a trial run, they're gauging their audience to see if them airing episodes of Doctor Who is worth what they're paying BBC to get the permission to air the episodes they are now and if it'll be worth continuing doing. I think that they chose 10 because he tends to be the most popular one and they think he'll bring a large audience of Whovians to come watch their channel with their families.
I wouldn't be surprised if later on, if they do get plenty of people watching Doctor Who on Disney XD, that they'll try to get the permission to air 9's run, since I imagine that BBC will be less likely to want to let anyone but them air the more recent Doctors. :3
