RE: The background music.

While Murray Gold is an absolute musical genius, they really should turn down the volume of the background/incidental music by about 50%. 

This has been an issue on much more than Dr Who in recent years...

I've been thinking and I have a feeling Rose's face showing up has something to do with Bad Wolf since reality got fucked up due to the wish and the 1 degree thing clearly didn't work as planned.

Now Bad Wolf has to fix reality as was kinda hinted at way back in the David Tennant days.

I also love these videos she makes: 

 

I was also thinking about that daughter. I think there's more to her than we know.

Also can't help but notice that it was said multiple times that the Gods play tricks.

I was thinking, and was going to post, almost exactly what @Brandon Hjust posted!

It's definitely a curious omission, but not curious enough that I'm tempted to start watching again! :p Billie Piper was the one thing I hated about Dr Who's return to the screen.

Disney+ will be exiting the Tardis and will no longer be involved with Doctor Who after partnering on two seasons with the BBC plus a spin-off of The War Between The Land and Sea.

The BBC just confirmed that the show will continue and will return with a Christmas special in 2026 penned by showrunner Russell T. Davies. We understand details of future seasons will be announced in due course along with an animation for pre-school children.

I can't imagine the global viewing figures (because in the UK, we don't watch it on Disney+) were much to write home about.  A vocal fanbase that like "the quirky Bri'ish sci-fi" certainly wouldn't have been sufficient to sustain such a show - especially considering it keeps flirting with being a wannabe "blockbuster" show.  The rabid fans of "classic" Who also are unlikely to have cared.  I have/had nothing against the house of mouse throwing some money at the distributors to get it on their platform, but I really didn't see it as quite the fit that it was billed as being, more suited to BBC Worldwide or such.

I'm not surprised. There are many shows out there that it is competing against.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.
    • Ladybird Browser is no longer accepting outside contributions thanks to AI

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
