    I’m not a doctor who fan at all, so as far as I’m concerned the show is dogshit regardless of who the doctor is, but that’s my personal taste, to each their own.

    However, from a couple minutes of googling, I’m pretty sure that the most recent doctor was a dude, and the next season with a new (“gender swapped”) doctor hasn’t even aired, or even been given an official release date, so not sure how you can really judge it already. Maybe you don’t like the actress, but I know I’ve been surprised by actors I generally don’t like knocking it out of the park before.

    There was another female doctor prior to this most recent one, but again, you’ve had a whole 'nother doctor since then.

    So I’m really not too sure what you’re on about their “current attempt.”

      No idea about her or anything upcoming. I thought it was universally accepted that the recent seasons of the Doctor were horrible, but it looks like I’m alone in that. Oh well. Anyway, my main point about this was that Fern Brady would do great.
