Dr. Who- Appointment Television; NOT OT
Any show in its 31st season can't be all bad. Sometimes a bit too campy for my taste, but it has its moments, and can be downright scary (in recent years, "Blink" from 2007 takes the prize). I'm still on the fence about the new cast, but I'm a couple of episodes behind -- I gather the statues from "Blink" are back...
At first I wasnt sure how to take the new Doctor and his companion but the recent episode was awesome stuff and I have finally become convinced that this new Doctor is going to be a good one.
Just remember: in 20 or 30 years, even the most serious shows on tv now will seem campy.
I was actually a little scared watching that episode. Every time I see angel statues now... :D
Straight up Dr. Who...Best show of TV, some of the CG and all of that may be extremely tacky but as far as original plot lines and tying things together no other show holds a stick to it.
Fantastic Doctor. I've pretty much finished series 4 except for the 2-part End of Time, where the regeneration is supposed to occur. So what's the verdict on Matt Smith as the 11th Doctor? Any good so far? The Eccleston to Tennant transition was pretty easy for me, honestly. How is the new companion? Just sayin, but Freema Agyeman (who played Martha Jones) is gorgeous.
Not having gone through it 10 times before, but he seems to have slipped right in. And the new companion is pretty tasty if you like redheads (though oddly tall). But then we've come a long way since having Freema, having had to live through the Donna Noble years, so maybe it's just rose-colored glasses (though not Rose-colored glasses).
