TBH this is one of my favourite things about Doctor Who. In an age where sci-fi shows tend to be very intricate about their lore and people go through trailers frame-by-frame to dissect the meaning of everything, Doctor Who is extremely insistent about not giving a flying fuck at all about almost anything to do with lore and canon. It’s pretty much: there’s the Doctor, and the TARDIS that looks like an old police box and there’s usually at least one human tagging along, and that’s it. Literally everything else can be thrown out of the window without any regard at all. The moon is an egg. Nobody can even agree on how many Doctors there are. David Tennant is probably at least three Doctors, kind of. We don’t even 100% know which actor currently plays the Doctor lol. It’s absolute chaos and I kind of love it
