Honest Trailers - Doctor Who (Modern)

from fancy PBS comes a show that takes place anywhere in the universe at any time in the past present or future where anything can happen and none of the continuity matters Doctor Who get ready for a continuation of the original series that picks up after 16 years off the air because all the British nerds who grew up with classic who finally got old enough to call the shots at the BBC now they're taking the stodgy old formula and stretching it to an hour of quirky comedy to know who you are improved special effects and enough soap opera pop to choke a telenovela - you need a doctor okay dr. Kidd meet the doctor he's not an actual doctor but an alien who named himself that Isabel the name I chose is the doctor it's like a promise you make even though the word doctor was created to describe him the word for healer and wise man we kept that word from you you know yeah that's not the first paradox you're gonna have to swallow paradox how the dog's heart turned up peridot peridot peridot paradox two fans he's a two hearted Time Lord who hijacked a faulty TARDIS from the planet Gallifrey who sometimes kind of a dick funny little human brains how'd he get around in those things with the casual viewers he's a funny man with the time machine who takes ladies on adventures who's also kind of a dick satis time watch him - through time equipped with a sonic screwdriver and psychic paper - devices with the power to speed up the plot is dead and the TARDIS everything a time machine with the power to break when the plot needs to slow down stop maybe they break less we didn't keep exploding inside of it it's just a thought watch the spatial justice warrior travel all around the known universe from the streets of London to working-class British mining towns to the quaintest middle english villages just other people know they're very all people but when the budget allows he'll fly off to the far reaches of the CGI universe where everything is still extremely brutish starship UK its Britain yes the Sun never sets on the British Empire her sons all the sons by his side as always is his trusty companion usually a cute girl because ratings who after a few seasons of adventure usually has her life ruined and they were tortured my mum my dad the sister if she's lucky she'll follow law to keep the doctor grounded give him someone to talk to and act as is mostly platonic but not always love interest no they're basically dating without the sex except for nardole that one was purely physical I'm not just sexy experienced a franchise that's been running for so long they built 13 Reid castings of the main character into the lore then hit that limit and pulled even more out of a crack as each actor brings a new spin to the alien who's seen the stars but looks like he's never seen the Sun whether it's EKKO stood the only doctor of the modern era to regenerate due to creative differences with a BBC David Tennant the unquestioned master of steering sadly into the middle distance [Music] Matt Smith who combined the face of a handsome 12 year old with the way the arms of an inflatable tube man Peter Capaldi who reimagined the doctor as your uncle who never got married and moved to Vegas in his 40s I was being hauled down by the cuts at a to notice or Jodie Whittaker the first female doctor which no matter how she performs is one of the least outrageous things this ridiculous show has ever done but an all-powerful hero demands all powerful villains to go up against and the doctor has some because in plenty of episodes it's a lame monster of the week invasion of the very small queues or something invisible to save on the effects budget or something we've seen a million times before but an alien or Nene still some evildoers are among the best in sci-fi like the Cybermen emotionless robots who can only be defeated by feelings the master a renegade Time Lord who considers themselves the doctors arch-nemesis but is in the middle of this list so you do the math the weeping angels killer stone statues who get less threatening with every appearance until they're about as scary as ghostbusters 2 the doctors greatest rival Christmas and the doctors other greatest rival the Daleks rushy blob stuffed into cramped metal homes who spend their entire life shouting commands and people they hate so internet commoners can't talk now follow along when the series spanning arcs that would delight fans and confuse newcomers like the seasons where the world keeps ending well just kidding it can reverse the planets rotation like Superman cannot restore the seasons where the doctor falls in love with his companion only to lose her for all eternity just kidding he'll make a copy of himself and they'll live happily ever after the seasons where the doctor copes with the inevitability of his own death I'm dying JK Rowling he'll live as long as the show needs him to what I suppose one more lifetime or the seasons where he's haunted by the knowledge that he's triggered the genocide of his own people no cop genocide you see now picture me that or maybe he's just kidding and he actually saved everyone but doesn't remember it no actually suggesting that we change our own personal history sure that'll work wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey whatever so run now your nearest hallway pull a plan ahead of yours but I've got a plan hi I've got a plan yeah of course I have a plan and starts spouting techno babble like the universe depends on it wave a fan Cassadine energy macro transmission of a cake build a wave that sticks it into a living receptacle minute feeds off the remaining auction energy because you're about to get some of the greatest standalone episodes in sci-fi history with a bunch of momentum killing serialization crammed into service the diehards but after all is said and done let's still try to be more like the doctor never cruel or cowardly never be cruel never be cowardly just enjoy the ride Inlet who do who know Frodo old foe toto no Bo oh so cold don't know so well coach oh geez you make it hard to love you sometimes starring the leftover bad wolf bad wolf what you cannot do scary poppins show me your Bo face the appearance of the repeated meme save Martha just the Tim Harry and Ron at the same time 12 angry man I want a girl with a short skirt in the long jacket the mrs.

This is honestly amazing. It kinda makes me wanna rewatch the entire revival. Every British actor ever lol!

David Tennant does do a great stare

It's so funny. I'm really curious how people who never seen the show reacted to it. I wish I could forget all the Who episodes and experience this honest trailer. Must be sooooo weird.

​

I just with the trailer would acknowledge how great some episodes are, like Waters of Mars, or Heaven Sent, Midnight or Blink.

"Just kinda there-a" for their description of Clara got giggle out of me

Fantastic.

The actual description of the show (go anywhere, anytime tell any story) is genuinely why I think Doctor Who is the greatest idea in literally fiction

(And have done for like 4 decades 😀)

Thankful for this. Now when friends ask me to explain Doctor Who I can just show them this instead of my usual attempt of an explanation which goes something like,

"Well, there's this alien called The Doctor. And he travels through time and space. And um, he picks up companions to travel with him...no not like that, it's a kids show. He saves the Earth, a lot. And um, it's funny and scary and sad and exciting and funny and sad. He can regenerate, which is why there's a bunch of different actors called The Doctor. The police box is his TARDIS, that's his time machine."

It's usually about this point that I realize their eyes have glazed over.

You can't call yourself a comedy show and then show the scene of Donna having her memory wiped
