BBC America will rebroadcast episodes from the ninth season of Doctor Who, now annotated with fan commentary from social media sites including Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, and Facebook. These so-called “Doctor’s Notes” episodes will air every Saturday, starting January 30, at 9:00pm ET/PT.
The ninth season (or series) of Doctor Who, stars Peter Capaldi as the Doctor, and Jenna Coleman as Clara. Watch a promo for the “Doctor’s Notes” episodes, below.
What do you think? Are you a Doctor Who fan? If you have already watched the ninth season, will you watch the “Doctor’s Notes” episodes, to check out the fan commentary?
Popup notes and tweets are the most annoying thing I’ve ever seen. Please never do that again.
I have never seen season 9. It’s airing for the first time in America with the doctors notes & tweets. I have always been a doctor who fan. But this just ruined the last season.
WoW… I would have really enjoyed watching this episode again – its one of my favorites… But during the entire first 20 minutes there were these gigantic annoying pop-ups intruding into the broadcast. I sure hope that you guys don’t do this for the new season, its very distracting and quite annoying.
Who thought this was a good idea? Isn’t there a “Doctor’s Notes” after the show for those people who want to participate in that sort of thing?
The tweets and other popups are pointless, useless, and annoying if your going to run repeats don’t pretend there something else. There’s plenty of episodes I’d watch again but not like this.
The tweets and other popup nonsense are not just useless, pointless, but also annoying. If your going to run a repeat don’t try and pretend it’s anything but, there’s plenty of episodes I’d watch again but not like this.
Popups kind of suck!
Did anyone else find the pop ups impossible to read?
Yes
YES!
So disappointed in this. So much garbage on the screen…
I can’t watch this. The notes clog the screen and take me right out of the show. Whoever came up with this idea should be shot.
No better than on-screen advertising, which I also abhor. Distracting and inane. Bad idea.
Missing Missy like a broken spine before a halo or pain killers!
Missing Missy like a broken back before pain killers or a halo support! RUN Clara.
I’m a fan, but I’m not watching the “Doctor’s Notes” episodes. Less than 10 minutes into the first one, I find the fan art that pops up to be incredibly annoying.
Unwatchable
