: That would annoy a lot of people if he doesn't finish the stories he's on first. However I can totally see him doing something like that and trying to use it to resolve loads of problems. Except it might defeat the point of the BBC not rebooting the show when they had the most logical chance.[[User:DCT|DCT]] [[User talk:DCT|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 11:55, June 7, 2013 (UTC) | : That would annoy a lot of people if he doesn't finish the stories he's on first.

I grew up reading comic books, and so the JSA/JLA crossovers became part of the calender. I remember when they started, and grew accustomed to parallel earths and alternate timelines and such. And I realize that this approach has become an almost common feature in comic books (and comic book based films.) But it would greatly offend me if done with The Doctor because his history is so robust, his characterizations much more than "2 dimensional", and because he was designed to not need to do a "Year One" style redo. He can travel to alternate universes, and experiance alternate time lines. AND his portrayer can change completely in appearance and manner. And while many comic book fans are also fans of the Doctor, most of the people I know who watch the Doctor do not read comic books, and so would not accept it so easily as comic fans might. | |||
The Time Lords once offered The Master a new full set of regenerations. Who knows what they did during the Time War when their survival was at stake. We have already seen the Doctor killed in ways that prevent regeneration. There doesn't have to be a "Final Regeneration Possible" to create drama around the Doctor's survival. As far as I am concerned, the Doctor can have as many regenerations as he needs.[[User:Phil Stone|Phil Stone]] [[User talk:Phil Stone|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 14:40, June 7, 2013 (UTC) | |||
