At least it’s consistent that the show dies whenever American money gets involved.

It does need a rest before coming back as a campy kids horror as it was before

Considering the rumor was this was the end for Gatwa, I tend to belive this other one too!

doubtful this is true but they should have never gotten disney involved anyway - or any american company. disney just exists for the bottom line, they've never cared about shows. look how they pandered to bigots by cancelling acolyte..

Needs a firebreak. Then return to its pre-2005 roots. Bobby Ewing its way out of the TARDIS shower.

Edit: Changed Bony to Bobby (though I love Bony Ewing as a Dallas character that never was).

Yes. Regard it all a bit like the Valeyard: ghostly future echoes of what could have been. The more appealing stuff can always be reintroduced afresh. If you don't like Eight - I could be convinced with Seven. I'd be happy with a pre-Rose Nine as well.

(I'm increasingly an advocate of (re)introducing the Faction, if Miles would allow it, who have been there all the time messing with time, causing temporal collapse - from which emerges new timelines which simultaneously embrace and reject everything before. And behind that a greater War in Heaven which makes the Time War look like a scuffle in a playground.)
