'That's Great, Adric' is an irregular Doctor Who podcast hosted by SeannieWan and Adric... kind of... that focuses on the Bigger Picture. Together, these companions will view/ are viewing/ will have viewed the entirety of 'Doctor Who' - as in the 26 years of what those in the 'Doctor Who Know' call 'Classic Doctor Who,' and hopefully one day, the current decade-plus run of what those same people label the 'Modern Era' of 'Doctor Who.'

Episode Notes
Journey through Space and Time to an alternate universe in which PBS, or the Public Broadcasting System to all you non-Americans, charges every household that wants to watch Masterpiece Theater the same price that one would pay Hulu if one wished to watch network television garbo without commercials. In this alternate universe, the monthly fee for Masterpiece Theater and Sesame Street is not enough revenue for PBS so they create a behemoth production studio to create Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City for every city all over the world. Sound unlikely? Silly?
Now- close your eyes and return to the universe you call home. Remember your experience with the out-of-control, power-hungry, monthly-fee-crazy PBS in that alternate universe. When you wake in your own familiar bed, replace PBS with the BBC and Armistead Maupin with Chris Chibnall and you will be able to understand why Adric is worried about Series 11 of Doctor Who.
Welcome fellow travellers through Time and Space!
We are most grateful that you have chosen to take a short interdimensional trip with us!
SeannieWan and Adric take a good, hard look at the perfect storm of misunderstanding and confusion that seems to be rampant among the new production team and new BBC marketing team of Doctor Who re:Doctor Who.
Something is amiss in merry, old England and the change-for-the-sake-of-change changes on Doctor Who are not things that anybody asked for... except a female Doctor... which is great, Adric... really, really great!
