"The Empty Child"

This has to be the creepiest damn thing Ive ever seen, just those gas masks, not sure why but they are....

Oh and that one close up of Rose

"The Boom Town"

Damn the Doc is a smartass

Man, that Dalek is a thing of beauty. I'm thinking I might have to track one down.

Harkness didn't get Torchwood until midway through Tennant's first season.

Okay, I saw some of it way before I heard of Who so I wasnt sure about it.

Holy crap Daleks are cool, and scary as hell at the same time

EDIT- So Im now done with the Eccelston run, now to see what the fuss with Tenant is

Finally caught all the way back up to current.

I have to say that while I found Matt Smith likable at first his quirky whimsical attitude has really put me off after this long. After 3 Series of him I'm glad to see him go. I really hope Moffat is whipping the slate clean so to speak, maybe a little less of this whimsical fairy tale bullshit and get back to him being a sci-fi hero? Series 5 had more than enough mentions of fairy tales, thanks to the whole Pandora's Box story book elements. Series 6 seemed to lack a direction overall and honestly did nothing for me. Maybe a few episodes and the clever way The Doctor escaped his own death.

Asylum I thought was a fun opener for Series 7 but the idea of erasing The Docotor entirely from the Dalek's minds seems utterly pointless. After Moffat took the time to resurrect them yet again, after Tennant and his metacrisis copy seemingly annihilated their entire race, he squandered them. A couple of episodes, a cameo at the Pandorica, and then wham, a whole race of Daleks who have no clue who their arch nemesis is. Seems like a wasted plot line. The rest of series 7 was pretty pitiful until "The Angels Take Manhattan." Even though I'm sick to death of seeing the creatures by now it was a great way to finally kick Amy & Rory to the curb. Those two really were grating on me by the end of Series 6.

As for the Christmas Special with Clara I overall enjoyed it. Again, a bit much on the fairy tale side what with snowman monsters and the TARDIS in the clouds, but enjoyable none the less. She's a lot more interesting to me than Amy ever was and to be perfectly honest I'm not 100% sure why. But being caught up to date through "Name of the Doctor" I think it's safe to say this show really needs a jolt of life. "Day" was a brilliant way to celebrate the series overall and give Matt a little bit of spotlight for his doctor. But I'm ready to see Capaldi take a stab at the character.

Quite honestly, I don't expect much to change with the series until Moffat is gone. He seems very keen on the fairy tale thing.

ComicGuy89 · 11-29-2013, 07:07 PM

The funny thing about Doctor Who is that no one can really agree on what they want their Doctor to be. Matt Smith was my Doctor and thus my default template of the Doctor so I never tire of him even when his stories suffered occasionally.

And I for one, very much love the fairy tale stuff.

The less sci-fi the better and this goes for my other two favourite "sci-fi" shows too: Star Wars and Star Trek. I feel when shows become too sci-fi sometimes they lose that suspension of disbelief because they actually invite you to think of the science behind it, and it never actually works out that well.

The translucent 10 is going up on the BBC shop at some point. I'm not sure if it ships internationally but if you need a way to get it let me know
