And somehow the most internet content around the recent seasons was not in fact, by RTD, but by Murray Gold…
Murray Gold for showrunner!

To be fair, Mr Ring-a-Ding became a Tumblr sensation.
True, and the Polish Bot was there for a moment…
Do you think the new kids cartoon Doctor Who will feature the return of Dugga Doo?
It’s almost like you can’t predict/control what will go viral, so making that your primary goal means you’re doomed to fail…
Well as long as it’s doing that
Can I request bringing back Waris Hussein to direct an episode next season? According to tardis.wiki, he’s still directing and I’d love to see what he’d bring to the modern series.
This! I think we can get a bit too tied up in the shortcomings of the current production team, which is often fueled by fear that the show might end if they don’t come up with something good enough, but really what I want is more Doctor Who, and a decent season length.
If it ends. It ends.
Following on from today’s 4DAs announcement, what returning monsters would people most like to see in a new season? My top three wishes are the robots of death, the Mara, and the Silence - I think they’re all pretty timeless as concepts and designs, and they all fit well with my desire for the show to move to a more “Hinchcliffe-ian” tone. The only one of these three I could imagine returning under the current team is the Mara, and I’m pretty certain it would be tied in with the pantheon, given the name drop in The Legend of Ruby Sunday - I would definitely prefer the Mara remains its own thing, personally.
I’d love a Morbius return as well (doubly so with Samuel West playing him!), but I don’t want RTD touching the time lords and Gallifrey again with a ten foot pole…
Well, there are these two really cool time lords I want to return…I bet RTD wouldn’t mess them up at all!! /j
And for a serious answer, I agree with DoctorDisco, I want Kaldor and the robots to come back!! I love their design, and I bet the show could do some interesting stuff with them
oh cmon every showrunner gets hate this isnt anything new,i still remember ppl wanting moffat out after s6.
It seems so surprising to me that Kaldor has never come back in New Who, especially considering how well beloved Robots of Death is. I think there are still a wealth of stories in there that don’t necessarily have to be the same thing all over again
I bet they’re all coming back, reimagined as gods!
The Robots are the God of Cogs!
And the Silence are the God of Silence.
And they are totally unrecognisable CGI behemoths voiced by Nick Briggs, of course!
I’ve always wondered if the robots in Voyage of the Damned were intended as homages, personally - their design and voice is fairly similar. I don’t think they’re a substitute for the real thing though.
People always hate on the current showrunner, but Steven Moffat wasn’t writing episodes with ‘how good will this look on tik Tok?’ in mind.
i mean sure becuase you didnt really have social media back then,but i get what u mean i dont like hes doing this either.
Ah yes we didn’t have social media in checks notes 2010-2017 …
Well it wasnt as prevalent as it is now,sure you had Tumblr and that stuff but twitter wasnt really big back then.
Well Tik Tok only came out in 2016/2017…
