Howling:New Whoniverse
Okay now the big bang had the doctor recreating everything. Is there a new Whoniverse or what. Is this just the old one recreated or have bigger changes come about for instance can people now remember those events that were wiped or not. Well to be honest I suppose we may know the answer when the doc meets up with Sarah Jane and Jo Grant if people can remember them. But still though is this crisis on infinte earths a complete reboot of the whoniverse or is it just another journey's end spider wars. For instance if the multiverse is different then should we have an article for it like whoniverse 2 or new whoniverse like dc comics new earth. Should we even have new articles on characters like Amy Pond [New Whoniverse] Daleks [New Whoniverse] if it does turn out that this is a whole different reality. Personally I hope that it is just a journey's end in that he saved the multiverse rather than completely rebuild it, I mean I liked the idea of a new rebooted canon at first but now having thought about I think its to big a thing to do that. Let me know what your opinions are do you think this is just the old canon restored or do you think its now an entirely new canon with some convienent similarities to the old one and convienent differences to the old one Winehousefan, 14:00, July 4 2010 [UTC
The Doctor said that Amy's timeline is slightly different, so at least Amy is different...anyway, we know that what happened in Series 5 and Series 1-4 can't co-exist on the same timeline, so at least one of the timelines is gones, thus it is not a restoration...203.168.176.42 13:24, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
You really have to go with everything is the same until it's explicitly stated that it isn't. I like the idea of everything being new and open and unfettered by 'past' continuity but I can't see the point in marking everything up whoniverse and newwhoniverse at this stage. Wait and see. Moffat may not have intended a significant change at all and may think that he's put everything back exactly as it was or he may think that he's got rid of everything he didn't want. Has he been interviewed about his yet? In the end only he and the other writers will make the decision. Jack Chilli 14:43, July 4, 2010 (UTC)
The universe as ew knew it from 1963 to 2010 was destroyed... and then rebooted. It does appear as though the series now takes place in a new Whoniverse where none of the old or revived series evenets ever took place because they were in the old, destroyed universe.
A spoiler for Torchwood series 4 has mentioned that it now takes place in a world where no one remembers any of the alien invasions that happened, as if they never happened. Click that with the fact that in Doctor Who series 5, which aired before Torchwood series 4 (both of which ar ein new eras), which shows things being erased and eventually the universe being destroyed and rebooted. They click.
Going by Torchwood series 4, the evnets of the series 56 finale have totally recreated the Whoniverse. It's a similar, but there are some drastic changes - no invasions, from what we're getting. So the reboot of series 5 and the Torchwood series 4 spoiler both say the universe has changed hugely following Big Bang Two. We will need to see what we learn from The Sarah Jane Adventures series 4, now. Notably, the episode the Doctor will be in.
In thoery, RTD and Moffat, both show runners of Whoniverse-set shows, might have wanted to keep the continuity between them, and rebooted the universe in Doctor Who, which would then make it so that in Torchwood, too, and possibly SJA, the reboot applies to their new series, too.
