That’s it. That’s tumblr.
this is surprisingly accurate
How big was ‘Doctor Who’ on Tumblr on Saturday?
Since we’re talking numbers, we should mention that we asked Tumblr analytics firm Union Metrics to tell us just how big the fandom was on The Day of The Doctor…
And the answer came back in a single sentence:
Because of you, Saturday, November 23, 2013, The Day of The Doctor, was the biggest television event they’d ever seen on Tumblr.
5.0 million posts
4.9 million reblogs
3.1 million likes
1.0 million contributorsIt was bigger than the VMAs, the Super Bowl, and the Grammys…
…combined.
We’ve always said that the Doctor Who fandom on Tumblr was bigger on the inside. Now we all have a better idea of just how big that inside is.
And what’s amazing is we’re still growing.
Congrats, Whovians.
Tumblr is so weird

You have Tom Hiddleston, British Shakespearean Actor:
Ben Whishaw, British Shakespearean Actor:
David Tennant, British Shakespearean Actor:
Benedict Cumberbatch, British and also has done Shakespeare back in the days:
And then there’s Misha Collins, the king of them all, who as near as I can figure is a Russian megalomaniacal smurf unicorn with a twitter account.
There’s logic lost here somewhere.
Isn’t David Tennant Scottish?
