Doctor Who fandom is a funny thing. Every one of the fans love this show so much that we feel so very protective of it.
All over the internet you will see people ranting and raving about the new series. There will be complaints and there will be praise. There are factions who agree with each other ready to start a war with the factions that think differently. Then you have the other groups ready to convert those who disagree or they will be sure to get their accounts “DELETE”-ed.
But the beautiful thing about fandom is the diverse opinions. Sure it’s nice when someone agrees with you, but if that were always the case, what fun would there be in chatting about the show?
What gets me though are the people who watch the new series every Saturday only to come online and post about how bad it is. If it’s so bad, then why are you watching it? Clearly it has captivated them in some way that they can’t stop watching it. Perhaps these are the “The glass is half empty” fans?
Either way it’s just one more group of opinions towards a show that has the magic to bring people together.
Were it not for Doctor Who and the fans’ ability to chat about all the different aspects of its many facets I would never made new friends across the
This is the power of Doctor Who and it’s fans.
I am very proud of our forum, for the years it’s been up it has been a brilliant place to chat about the show, share all sort of opinions, but without the wars or the factions ganging up on each other. Every day there are new members and new opinions and everyday they are welcome.
So, if you’re a fan and you have opinions come on in, the door’s open. Christian Cawley is watching YOU
