Part 10/10:

The case of Doctor Who illustrates a broader issue facing many long-standing franchises in today’s media landscape. When external corporations prioritize social justice themes over coherent storytelling and audience preferences, the result can be a fractured fanbase and declining popularity. Doctor Who, once a symbol of creative ingenuity and hope for sci-fi fans, now finds itself entangled in controversial cultural politics that threaten to diminish its legacy.

As the franchise cedes to these trends, many wonder if it will be able to recover or if it will continue down a path that risks irreparable damage. For now, the future of Doctor Who remains uncertain, as it struggles to balance progress with its roots, all while its ratings and admiration continue to dwindle.
