Doctor Who Appreciation Thread

[Mr. Negative]

Captain Jack Harkness was charismatic enough to have a show for at least 10 seasons so they really dropped the ball on him. I always thought River Song should have had a spinoff of some kind... I always loved River

River Song is fukking delicious.

Her and The Doctor's relationship is the most tragic one I've ever seen.

Ever.

River was amazing in the two parter that introduced her and I liked her in the early days of the Matt Smith run but by the end I was just tired of her. Moffat took what was a good character and made her into a combination deus ex machina and Mary Sue that I started to tire of.

Before my time as a Who fan but I'm surprised Torchwood didn't last longer. Doctor Who has gone from a cult thing to mainstream. They made the cover of Entertainment Weekly in America. You'd think there'd be some rumblings of a new spin-off.

That second season of Torchwood was some of the best sci-fi TV I had seen in a while and those last 3 or so episodes were just to me.

And at the same time that Doctor Who and Torchwood were airing the BBC3 was airing the Sarah Jane Adventures. Who fans were well back then.

Just came back from the movies. I attended that showing of yesterday's who episode.

The new guy looks like a good choice. I got tired of the manic Willy Wonka and some dark who would be good.

 

[Mr. Negative]

well, I guess it's been established. This Doctor doesn't give a shyt about you.

 

[Diunx]

Capaldi's Doctor is pretty fukking ruthless the true War Doctor , I wonder if someone will die every episode of this series to include a scene in "heaven"

 

[DaylitoJames]

well, I guess it's been established. This Doctor doesn't give a shyt about you.

Finally, he's gonna transform from a Time Lord to a Time Gawd

Very good episode. Liked it better than the premiere. I was worried because I think the modern series relies on the Daleks way too much. For example, during Tom Baker's seven season run, I think he only went against them twice. But they had a nice twist and I wouldn't mind seeing more of Rusty much later on.

And this Doctor is cold as hell, but I like it.

What is this chick in "heaven" doing? Building up an army to fight the Doctor?

Damn contractual obligations to the Dalek creator. Thats the reason they have been overused.

Really? I know they had to pay him to use them at one point. What'd they do, sign a deal guaranteeing to use them 3-4 times every season?

To be fair dem Daleks are too iconic

I know they have merch to sell, but they need to go away for a few seasons. They're meaningless at this point.

They need to bring back The Master to go against this new cold hearted Doctor in a good long story arc

 

[Jello Biafra]

This episode was miles better than the first one and I am enjoying this no fukks attitude Capaldi's Doctor has.

Clara was a lot better in this ep too than she has been in the majority of her time on the show.

I also liked the intro of Danny Pink. Hopefully they don't treat him like they did Rory and Mickey in past seasons.

It would be good to see the Tennant type humor contrasted against this colder doctor
