There are several reasons why some fans believe Doctor Who shouldn't
have been cancelled in 1989:

Loss of Potential: The cancellation cut short the narrative threads
of the Seventh Doctor's era. Unresolved storylines and character
arcs were left hanging.

Creative Innovation: Despite some production issues, the late classic
era was still exploring new ideas and concepts. Cancellation stifled
this ongoing creative development.

Impact on Sci-Fi Landscape: Doctor Who held a prominent position
in British science fiction television. Its absence left a gap for over
a decade, impacting the overall sci-fi landscape.

Fan Frustration: The cancellation obviously disappointed a dedicated
fanbase. Many fans felt the show still had stories to tell.

Modern Revival's Success: The show's successful revival in 2005 proves
there was still an audience and creative potential for Doctor Who.

However, it's important to consider the reasons for the original cancellation:

Dwindling Ratings: Viewing figures had been declining for several
seasons, leading to concerns about the show's viability.

Production Difficulties: The show faced internal production issues
and budget constraints that impacted quality in some viewers' eyes.

Need for Refreshing Reboot: The show might have benefited from a break
to allow for a fresh perspective and revitalization that the 2005 revival
eventually provided.

Ultimately, cancellation was a complex situation. While the show's potential
was undeniable, the reasons behind its hiatus can't be ignored. The revival's
success shows Doctor Who's enduring legacy, but the original cancellation
remains a turning point in the show's history.
