  • So… Doctor Who Just Regenerated Into Rose Tyler?

    According to writer Robert Shearman, the 15th Doctor’s regeneration into Billie Piper has basically put a full stop on the entire Doctor Who story. That’s a wild way to end things if he’s right. After all these years, do you think this is a fitting way to close the loop or does it feel more like the show’s run out of ideas?

So, Jagged Edge Productions is really leaning into the destroy your childhood vibe with Pinocchio: Unstrung. They’ve taken the innocent wooden boy story and decided, “Hey, what if we made it sadistic, bloody, and voiced by Robert Englund?”

I’m curious, does anyone else think this could actually be entertaining in a darkly clever way, or is it just exploiting nostalgia for shock value?

Honestly, it could go either way. On one hand, turning something as wholesome as Pinocchio into a horror story has some twisted potential if they actually put thought into it. On the other, it could just be another “creepy childhood thing” cash grab
