Let's Vote for What's Taking NuWho's Place
Added 2024-07-09 11:48:06 +0000 UTCWe've got two or three weeks of bonus Doctor Who reactions (feel free to leave links in the comments if there are any fun little bonus things you want me to react to), but then we'll be filling the spot with a new show.
I want whatever replaces NuWho to be something that will give us about two years' worth of reactions at a minimum.
You may vote for as many options as you would like. (Please only vote for an option if you would be willing to continue watching full reactions for it here on Patreon as there is no guarantee that shortened versions will be posted on YouTube.)
In the event of a tie, I will be the tie-breaking vote (I may also then put it up for a vote on YouTube to help me decide.)
The poll will close Friday, July 12th at 8pm Mountain Time.
*****
Related Side Note: If anyone is curious, if I were the one deciding, I would choose Game of Thrones as that's the one I'm personally the most interested in watching.
Another Related Side Note: Sex Education will be wrapping up in about a month and we'll use that spot to get through some shorter shows like The Last of Us, Firefly, etc. (Basically, shows that will take about six months or less to get through.)
*****
Here's some information on the options in case it impacts your vote:
Doctor Who Confidential: it seems the episodes are only available to stream using iPlayer and the versions included with the box sets are shortened versions of the episodes, and that wouldn't work for the watch-alongs. I would be using the full versions that have been uploaded to the YouTube channel, DW Confidential. I have YouTube Premium, so they would be ad-free. There do seem to be at least a couple of episodes missing from the channel that I would not be able to react to. Please consider all of this information and whether or not it would prevent you from being able to watch along with my reaction.
Game of Thrones: I have seen the first episode and I do know something significant about how it ends. I would also then react to House of the Dragon afterward provided I enjoyed GoT enough to continue.
Star Trek: We would start with The Original Series, but it would take like 17.5 years to get through every episode of every show. So, there are likely some shows I would skip entirely and some shows where I would put up a poll for which five or ten episodes to watch from each season.
Star Wars: We would start with The Clone Wars and go from there based on the correct order or voting in polls if the order is ever not important.
The Arrowverse: I've been told all the shows should be treated more as one big show and it would require bouncing back and forth between shows to keep up with all the crossovers. I'm prepared to do that, and I have some amazing people willing to help me keep the order of episodes straight.
Smallville: The first two episodes have already been released and we would pick up with episode 1x3.
Please keep in mind that continuing with all of these is contingent upon me being able to find at least some enjoyment from watching the content. I won't be able to stick with a show (or franchise) if I just really don't like it and can't get into it at all.
Comments
I'm so glad you're enjoying the Doctor Who reactions. Patreon is WAY further ahead on the reactions than YouTube. All episodes of NuWho/Modern Who (including the newest ones with Ncuti) have all already been reacted to. So, there are full reactions on here for every single episode of NuWho. The show wasn't stopped, I'm just already reacted to every episode.

2024-07-18 14:42:18 +0000 UTCI joined to watch your reactions of Dr Who on Patreon. I'm very sorry and regretful I have to say I will be leaving if there's no Dr Who. I'm a senior on limited income and really enjoy your reactions to Dr Who. You have helped me with my boredom. I've watched all Dr Who with my daughter and husband. She's with her fiance and he passed 2 years ago. Watching this with you has been so enjoyable but I do understand if you have to move on.

2024-07-18 12:55:14 +0000 UTCI know very little about it (just that it's animated and maybe has a darker subject matter?), but I will add it to the list of shows to include in a future poll. :)

2024-07-16 04:49:47 +0000 UTCI didn't actually watch the video in case it is and I do it as a bonus reaction, but is this what you're talking about? Also, are there any spoilers in it for other things he's been in that I haven't seen yet (like Broadchurch)? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li_WIjv53pI

2024-07-12 20:59:27 +0000 UTCSomething DW related to watch over the next couple of weeks - David Tennant getting his special recognition award from 2015. Great viral video and David deserved the award massively!

2024-07-12 19:08:34 +0000 UTCYeah, I have it on my list to include on a poll eventually, but there's only 65 episodes and I wanted something that was going to take around two years at a minimum to get through so it didn't quite fit the bill this time around.

2024-07-11 00:22:09 +0000 UTCWell, it's looking like you're going to get your wish. lol

2024-07-11 00:20:17 +0000 UTCFor HotD afterwards maybe? I voted cause it sounds like that's what Brittany wants to watch :P

2024-07-10 02:17:27 +0000 UTCBBC Merlin was mentioned by someone else before, and I think that's a great suggestion! 5 seasons and a complete story, not a cancellation. Lots of familiar faced from Doctor Who as well.

2024-07-10 01:38:00 +0000 UTCWould love to see a reaction to game of thrones. Would also give me an excuse to rewatch the show

2024-07-09 19:48:44 +0000 UTCI'm curious why is everyone is voting for a show that they know they won't watch the reaction for the last season or two for... :/

2024-07-09 18:20:31 +0000 UTCYeah, the barrage of names and places without much context is why I didn't continue with the show when I watched the first episode a few years ago. But, I agree. I think if I can get past that and get my bearings, it's something I'll really be able to get into.
Britany Felix
2024-07-09 12:57:38 +0000 UTCI'd love to see your reaction to Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon later if you decide, I think that once you get over the initial barrage of names and places you'd really enjoy it!

2024-07-09 12:00:08 +0000 UTCArrowverse gets my vote. I think you'd really love it. And, as you know, I have the order sorted out for you if it wins. But what ever wins this poll will be so much fun I'm sure. 😊
