I know I am getting > old, but still... You stated, (Message-ID: ) "At a guess, Disney put a lot more $ in to The Acolyte and didn't expect the return they got! They wouldn't have spent half as much for the Doctor Who streaming rights." This ultimately derives from the false narrative made up by the FAKE NEWS which claims Disney spent $250 million on the Wokolyte for one season and $200 million for the rights to Doctor Whoke for 2 seasons, so they spent less than half as much on Doctor Whoke as they spent on the Wokolyte. Either way what they spent on one season of Doctor Whoke is barely 1/20th of what they spent on the Whokolyte going by the production values for each series, which proves the FAKE NEWS are making it all up. -- The True Doctor https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCngrZwoS0n21IRcXpKO79Lw "To be woke is to be uninformed which is exactly the opposite of what it stands for." -William Shatner
