Dr Who returns tomorrow
For those Dr Who fans out there the show resumes in the UK tomorrow and presumably other countries will also be receiving it. Mar 29 13 11:52 am Link Squee. Mar 29 13 11:54 am Link Yes!!! Mar 29 13 01:02 pm Link Can't wait.  It's been a bit frustrating the scheduling they've done for this 'season'. I like the new companion, she seems quick witted. Mar 29 13 01:54 pm Link Whopeee-do!! :-D Mar 29 13 03:20 pm Link There are a lot of rumours that this year's Christmas special will be Matt Smith's last appearance as the Doctor. Mar 29 13 03:27 pm Link No! I love that bowtied man  Mar 29 13 03:28 pm Link Mary Thomson wrote: I heard a rumor that James May, from UK Top Gear, will be the next Doctor. I do hope Matt Smith is here for a while longer though. Mar 30 13 08:10 am Link Mar 30 13 01:49 pm Link Im watching it right now! So far, not my favorite episode. Mar 30 13 05:36 pm Link Robb Mann wrote: I agree. Not the most compelling story. Mar 31 13 05:41 am Link I liked the direction and production values, looks like they're spending a little more money. However, I agree, the story was a repeat of a dozen others. The new companion is awesome. Mar 31 13 08:39 am Link And "The Bells Of St Johns" was pretty meh.

Mar 31 13 12:09 pm Link last season was only half a season. Hopefully they go back to a full storyline and season this time! Mar 31 13 01:05 pm Link I hope Steven Moffat hasn't run out of ideas. Maybe he should hook up with D.C. Fontana or Harlan Ellison for some new storylines... Mar 31 13 01:25 pm Link I thought it was a bit silly but liked the Twitter joke. Mar 31 13 02:37 pm Link It was the weakest Clara episode by far. Least scarry monster by far, weakest of Moffetts 'eyeless' monsters, worst name ever for a monster 'Spoonhead', least suspenceful episode, etc. Highlight of the episode was the Dr dressed as a monk. (If you caught the mini-prequell a young Clara tells the Dr to go somewhere quiet to look for what hes lost). So, both Clara and the Dr are mad computer hackers now. But computer hacking is a really boring skill to watch on TV, and a really bad way to move the plot forward. And if the Dr was so good at hacking, why not hack the planes autopilot and level it out?

Clara went from being dynamic and strong to just another damsel in distress. Hopefully she gets back to her snarky strong character of the first two episodes she was featured in.

Apr 01 13 07:49 pm Link I have been a fan of Dr. Who for the past 20 years and I have witnessed the decline of the Dr character as the shows creators have tired to make him more mainstream and likeable. I agree with the comments posted here about the overt cleanliness of the TARDIS control room, that is just not the Dr. I think my all time favorite Dr. Who was David Tenant and my favorite companion was Donna Noble. Donna brought out the humanity in the Dr. and she was funny. I have a couple of the David Tenant/Dr. Who DVD sets and I am on the prowl for the rest of them. I caught a re-run of Dr. Who on Sunday and they were showing "The End of Time" which is right up there on my list of all time Dr. Who favs. I know that the show will continue to change as it evolves but I hope they don't ruin it too much for those who watch it.
