I was just wondering if Doctor Who is entering into one of those stages where it isn't exactly the hottest thing on the air. Now while we all know that doctor who will always be a big popular worldwide thing, even in the nineties where there was only paul mgann one shot turn as the doctor, it was still very popular. I am living proof of that as I grew up when there was no doctor who and I love it as much as any person who did. Still obviously there are periods where the show isn't quite so mainstream . I was wondering if we are entering into that stage. Sadly having looked at what the viewing figures have been for the last few episodes they haven't been that good. Really after Victory of the Daleks this show hasn't really done well certainly not compared to the shows high points. What do you guys think do you think this is say like Patrick Troughtons era when after having been on the air a couple of years it just wasn't pulling people in the same way or do you think this is just a bit of a glitch due to hot weather and the world cup. I really hope the season finale gets big viewing figures, personally I dont think it will get Journey's end type viewing figures but I think it will still get reasonably high ones as there has at least still been alot of hype about this series.

- Hmm, hard to say. I think all the time there are fluxuations on tv shows. I don't think they'd cancel it anytime soon though. Of course the world cup may be having an impact, people being away from homes and such, and the good weather meaning people miss it when it initially airs (I know that I've missed more than seen at the time of airing this season). I wouldn't say the popularity is going though, especially with the amount of sales etc they get from merchandise etc. I can't even get my hands on one of the tenth's sonic screwdrivers :( --The Thirteenth Doctor 18:36, June 18, 2010 (UTC)
