So, the cock of doom and his angry aggy parrot notwithstanding, Disney Plus
has finally made a statement about their experience of the show. "Doctor
Who was
a top 5 series on Disney+ globally every week it aired."
That is a much more positive view for the bottom line, and for the prospects
of a follow up Disney deal, than I've ever heard.

If that level of Disney viewership is sustained, and it can stay a top 10
show on the BBC, then renewal is looking more and more likely. Even if the quality doesn't improve (and we're guaranteed at least one very whimsical
and childish episode, with the recent cartoon Alan Cumming episode announcement ...)

There’s no point in being grown up if you can’t act a little childish
sometimes.

I assume that means Disney were happy enough with it. If they
are still happy after S2/S15 airs then they might be inclined to
order some more episodes.
If they don't, we'll know that "Doctor Who" didn't reach Disney's >expectations viewer wise.

A bit of positivity is always good. We could have done with some
of that when all the YouTube nay-sayers were doing their bit...

Whimsical and childish, plus an episode with singing... the
forthcoming season of "Doctor Who" looks like being a mixed bag.
I just hope the quality does improve some bit. The show is on
trial for its life. (If we are to believe the rumours.) Now is
not the time for too much silliness or gimmicks.
