See AllAfter 2 Doctor-Lite Episodes In 2024, Fifteen Still Isn't The Main Character In Doctor Who Season 15
RTD has stated on several occasions that he sees the Companions as the main characters, and the Doctor as a plot device and secondary. He is more concerned about "emotional gutpunches" than plot. But despite his opinion, the show lives and dies on the quality of the Doctor. That is the face of the franchise, the character and actor promoted, grounded on and who gives the shows its purpose to exist. Every spin-off that cut out the Doctor has been short-lived or outright failed.
Right now, Doctor Who is in one of the lowest points in 50 years. Viewership, interest and ratings are way down and have been dropping since the beginning of the Tennent run. I firmly believe that the franchise needs to be taken away from RTD, Moffet and their fellow producers, and partially rebooted by some new blood, because this is NOT working.
