I’m undecided on the new Doctor Who lead actor, Jodie Whittaker.
Why?
Nothing to do with her talent. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen her in anything. No, it’s with her casting.
I don’t mind a female Doctor. But, I despise stunt casting, which is what this feels like.
But, what’s wrong with casting women in a role just to cast women in a role? What could go wrong?
Here’s one answer:
What’s on your mind? Got something to share? It’s your turn, after all, because it’s Saturday Night Open Thread.
Who wants to start?
Tom Cruise wasn’t stunt casting the other day. He was just doing his own stunt filming his new movie and broke his ankle. Now that’s a stupid stunt.
Or as Frank would call it, “Lesser Dr Who”
I’m generally willing to suspend disbelief when watching sci-first – but a woman doctor? That’s laying it on a bit thick.
Could have started with Nurse Who.
EWW guy did a good job with that one. If you haven’t seen the Mr Plinket review of it from redletfermedia then do yourself a favor and watch. It’s about an hour so settle in.
