The New Doctor (Who)

[Mendalla]

An unusual, albeit happy ending for Bill. I was initially outraged at what appeared to be her fate. The writing did the character some justice.

Recently we have had some stellar companions take on some of the biggest bad guys the Doctor has and beat them in battles of wills. Clara vs the Dalek mind and Bill vs the Cyberman mind.

Good to hear. I figured something must have worked out for the better, I just hadn't heard more.

Hoo TS in the nigh Tae?

 

[Delightful Life]

Ahh fellow Whovians

I got to see Jodie's first episode

And oh my...I LIKE her interpretation of the Dr. The same manic crazyness I've come to expect from the Dr. And "horrible" fashion sense ;3

Looking forward 2 seeing more episodes.

And I'm glad see that her ratingz are pretty good
How's Doctor Who *actually* doing so far, ratings-wise?

Luck b a Time Lady,

Hoo is being doc't here as doxie? Few understand 'dox' and do Xectera ... as part of frightening activity by elders to separate by schismatics ...

Tis unearthly ... thus the cohabitants float in ecstacy of the other kind ... thus screwed Jack? An obscure act if viewed may be pornograpic or unnerving experience depending of what you been fed about brae dings ...

Sounds like it is a short term "bridge" incarnation though since the next Doctor is already cast (was before Tennant's return was revealed). Ncuti Gatwa is the actor.

Recently staged ... As You Like It ... may not be what is virtue! Mules in the house?

Expect kicks, etc. Fete ish ... condensed tongue ... a tight image!

Why is always critical in the other quests! Hoo, etc.

 

[Mendalla]

Tennant's dr is confused as to why he is back...

He always seemed a bit confused. Part of his charm.

 

[Delightful Life]

He always seemed a bit confused. Part of his charm.

And his clothes regenerate as well :3

 

[Delightful Life]

Looks like Rus Davies will be involved with this run so the writing should be much better :3

One thing I love about this series is how they are willing to dig in and bring back obscure old Dr. Who characters like the Celestial Toymaker. Even the Zygons were one-offs when they first used them during Capaldi's run. And, of course, the series kicked off with the Autons and their overlord the Nestene Consciousness, who had previously appeared in two Pertwee episodes and then vanished until the first episode of the revival. I mean, they could have easily just stuck to creating their own and reusing classics like The Master and The Daleks (who, of course, got plenty of airtime as they did in the original series) but, no, they actually looked at episodes like the one suriving part of The Celestial Toymaker for inspiration.

What if it is just an old Hoo Sear ... a burning past!

 

[Mendalla]

To use a music analogy, it's a like a band that gets back together a couple decades after a breakup and as well as doing their big hits, they also do track 12 from their fifth album that almost nobody but them remembers.

 

[Luce NDs]

Well ... a band IT, or ET?

One goes down the other is out of here ... fringe facets? resembling a Dark Pearl ... obliteration of texts? Chaos is thus employed in industry ...

When the show works, it works to Neil Gaimanesque levels

When it doesn't work, it still is fun (last season)

I am so glad that Russell Davies is involved. I love his work
