See AllDoctor Who Is In Trouble, And David Tennant Can Save It
Ahem.. What I would do if I were the next showrunner, (re)introduce some purely historical stories. I might be wrong, but I think for one of those you have to go right back to Peter Davison. Where the Doctor and Co. Go back in history, and have to do something that sets up the history we know, or (another show, but does anyone remember the TOS episode 'City on the Edge of Forever'?) Where they have to prevent something happening. Lots of opportunities to CGI extraordinary events, opportunities for real moral dilemmas and even educational value. And.. While I'm personally as woke as they come, don't alienate much of the audience by shoe-horning social justice into everything to the extent it becomes absurd. It helps nobody.
They have sort of dabbled with historical stories, but always aliens and such get introduc3d almost as if they didn't know where to go with it. How about Dr Who vs. Rasputin (the real one, not the Master in disguise)? Dr Who vs. Emperor Nero? Dr Who vs. The Spanish Inquisition? Dr Who vs. Ghengis Khan? The list is endless.
'That's The One Thing I'm Completely In Control Of' George R.R. Martin Gives Fans An Update On Winds Of Winter
By the time Martin finishes it (if he ever does) some AI will have written a final couple of books that are more Martin than Martin, anyway.
Daredevil: Born Again's First Week Views Fall Short Of Another Marvel Project That No One Believed In
I think more and more people are just bored with superheroes, TBH. The best way to make future revenue from them is just leave them in the comics for a decade or two. Then come back to the whole thing when the appetite is back, with all new casts, and new impossible things technology can make possible and believable.
Star Trek: How A 1967 Production Memo Debunked a Long-Held TOS Fan Theory
Question for trekkie diehards. The article comments on occasions where Star Fleet personnel who were not Enterprise crew wore a different uniform badge from them. Are there any examples in TOS of crew of other Starships or Starbases wearing the SAME badge as Kirk & Co.?
Even if the first instance was due to those 'limited resources', surely after that they must have just said 'ah well' and gone with it whatever the original intention was? I don't find that excuse particularly convincing anyway.. Surely one 'resource' they had no shortage of was shirts with the 'Enterprise' logo on them? There always seemed to be enough for crew extras, but not for guest stars? Can't see it.
