Hello. This is a transmission from the future. Out in the thought-sphere, there is a show about a time traveler alien creature. We've created time travel, so one would think such a show was trite. Frankly, the elders think that this show was complete crap (so what's new?). The show was a unknown show, before one day, someone looked into the classic public domain shows of the older days. And they decided to revamp the show with a new varnish. Say that the character was the Doctor, and change zhis "temporal teleporter" into a blue police phone box.

  • Hello. This is a transmission from the future. Out in the thought-sphere, there is a show about a time traveler alien creature. We've created time travel, so one would think such a show was trite. Frankly, the elders think that this show was complete crap (so what's new?). The show was a unknown show, before one day, someone looked into the classic public domain shows of the older days. And they decided to revamp the show with a new varnish. Say that the character was the Doctor, and change zhis "temporal teleporter" into a blue police phone box. Everyone laughed at this show. The Doctor's last incarnation had numbered in the thousands, back in a time when people still lived in flesh bodies. How could the Doctor still be relevant in a day where police was an unknown institution, where the concept of a doctor was unknown in certain circles, where CGI replaced almost every actor? Hell, most copies of the so-called Classic and NuWho eras had been lost to time, and the effects were crappy. Yet, somehow, it's become a success. Turns out that if you revamp Daleks into viral creatures attempting to kill off transhumanists, and Cybermen into Luddites trying to bring people back to corporeal terms, you can still make the baddies relevant. And, as a gender-fluid alien who changes form, the Doctor is still as relevant as ever. So, here's to the 2000th Doctor. The future's in good hands.
