See so like here’s how I imagine the pitch for this new era of Doctor Who went
“We’re gonna start by bringing in david tennant for the third time and bring back an old companion from 15 years ago and continue her story, perfect jumping on point for new viewers. Then we’re gonna bring back this villain from 60 fucking years ago so the doctor can face off against him again! It’s a perfect jumping on point, I swear, stick with me. Then we’re also gonna bring back an old companion from 36 years ago as a side character. It’s a perfect new fresh point to get into the show. Then we’ll bring back a villain from 49 years ago and people will love that, a nice fresh start to doctor who with lots of new bad and evil villains. Then we’ll bring back Midnight!!! Oooo yes people love Midnight!!! That place from that one story 17 years ago!!! OOOO goodie!!! I can’t wait for the new fans to come along and see all this!!! And then! And then! We’ll bring back The Fugitive Doctor in a short cameo!! THE DISNEY+ VIEWERS WILL LOVE IT!!!! THEN- OH! OH! I almost forgot!!! SUSAN!!! The Doctor’s Grandaughter!!! She’s back! She’s back she’s back she’s back she’s BACK! It’s a joyous day for Doctor Who and my egomania!THEN, get this, THE RANI!!!! That one time lord villain who people last saw in a shitty children in need special!!! But she was good!! She was good!! People will love her and the disney+ viewers will really love it. AND THEN- to top it all off, we’ll bring back OMEGA. That 1 villain from an old multi doctor special who also last appeared 42 fucking years ago. Honestly Julie Gardner we’re on the precipice of a new GOLDEN ERA FOR THE SHOW!”
