The 2024 season of Doctor Who (also known as the fourteenth series or "Season One" under the new production) premiered on May 11, 2024, following a Christmas special on December 25, 2023. This season marks several significant changes and milestones:

• It is the first season produced after Disney acquired the international broadcasting rights, with the show now streaming on Disney+.
• Russell T Davies returned as head writer and executive producer, his first time back since 2010.
• Ncuti Gatwa stars as the Fifteenth Doctor, introduced through a unique "bi-generation" regeneration alongside the Fourteenth Doctor (David Tennant), rather than a direct replacement.
• Millie Gibson joins as the new companion, Ruby Sunday.
• The season consists of eight episodes, featuring a mix of new writers alongside Davies, and was filmed at Wolf Studios Wales.
• The storyline spans adventures from Regency England to futuristic wars, with themes including monsters, mysteries, and a long-standing secret.
• Reception has been mostly positive, praising Gatwa's energetic performance and chemistry with Gibson, though some critics noted rushed storylines and uneven character development.
• The 2024 Christmas special titled "Joy to the World" premiered on December 25, 2024, featuring the Doctor uncovering a threat at a London hotel.

This season is notable for its fresh start under Disney, the return of a beloved showrunner, and a new Doctor who brings a vibrant energy to the series, continuing the legacy of this iconic sci-fi program into its 40th overall season
