For me the official numbers are not very important, but in my opinion they should separate the Doctor Who New Series into even more categories in the Streaming services.
Yesterday RTD announced that they are separating the New Who into two categories on Streaming services: "2005-2022" and "2023-...". Various people had different reactions to this, some people disagreed and others agreed. Here is my opinion on this:
One reason for this is that they want to attract a new audience and having a high number of Series (Seasons) will scare people away from clicking on it.
But this is not the only reason, think about it, if they had continued with the old numbering, the vast majority of people when clicking on the program would start with "Rose", as the streaming programs always start from the first episode! We know that Doctor Who has several entry points for the public to get started, as new posts always appear here from someone asking which episode to start the series with, but this doesn't work on a streaming service.
In fact, I think they should separate the new series into even more categories in Streaming to help the public know what the entry points are. Here my idea:
Doctor Who (2005-2009)
Doctor Who (2010-2017)
Doctor Who (2018-2022)
In other words, separate the serie into the different Eras: RTD, Moffat and Chibnall.
In addition, the Classic Who would be a little more difficult to separate into different categories, since the end of one regeneration and the beginning of the next usually have the same companions and people responsible, perhaps they could separate them by decades? In other words: the 60s (1st and 2nd Doctor), 70s (3rd and 4th Doctor) and 80s (5th, 6th and 7th Doctor)?
