i am a relatively new convert, and have recently finished with the 4th season. next up would be the 2 or 3 TV specials, then 'end of time'. (please, NO SPOILERS!!!) IMO its some of the best sci-fi-- hell, the BEST TV i've ever seen. one minute its all jokes and sci-fi wonder, the next minute its some of the best drama. david tennant is AWESOME. (to think i was pissed they replaced christopher eccleston!) martha jones is so damn pretty (my favorite companion)...
(i realize doc has been around since the 70's and 80's, but i've no interest watching the older stuff. maybe in another 10 years )
about the pic above, well it was done quickly with zero reference. that's why its cartoony; so i can hide the FLAWS with the likeness. oddly enough, i took the time to research the sonic screwdriver...
so i wanted to practice photoshop and this pic was one of the unlucky ones i chose to experiment on.
if you watch the series, you'll see what need's to be seen. if not, well, there's absolutely NOTHING TO SEE HERE. move along... (i can almost hear doc in my head shout "BRILLIANT!" while grinning like a maniac.)
I've just started watching the series as well...about a week ago and I'm JUST starting season 3 now. Oh I do love this series, haha, ah but I do miss Rose lol
lol and it turned out to be awesome didn't it? lol I had heard of it for a loooong time now and then maybe a year or so ago my friend got into it and totally obsessed over it. XD and then finally about a week or so ago I finally got around to watching it on my own. Now I freakin' LOVE it! XD haha
yep. its pretty great, though i admit i didn't start loving it until the empty child. that's when the show started feeding off(?) or building from(?) the mythology and where the character's relationships started paying off. after that, i was ALL IN.
exactly! I think that episode and then when the 10th Dr. was introduced I just feel in love with the series. haha XD
Oh! I just wrote a long rant of a journal about the 4th season finale...um, I'd like to see if any fellow fans have any sort of agreements with my thoughts on it. It is a bit long, but if you wouldn't mind skimming through it and giving your thoughts on it I'd greatly appreciate it: [link]
i understand most of your points, and even agree with some of them to a certain extent. but the thing is, i don't sweat the details. it wasn't important to me where who came from or how what happened. what i was more interested about was what happens when those things come into play in the story. DW seasons are usually 13 episodes, and i would prefer adventure and character, to explanations on technical stuff.
for the stuff i can't explain, i just chalk it up to the doctor just being the doctor, or alien super-science, or timey-wimey stuff.
its a trend that is carried out through the show. "what? the doctor got married? haha! oh that rascal...". "the master's DNA from mrs. saxon's lips? wow that alien tech is so far beyond our human capabilities! (or wow time-lord physiology really is different! even their spit can last a long time on someone's lips)".
your criticisms are fair, and i'm sure it would bug the living SHIT out of me if it were another show. but since its the doctor... i can get over it. ;D
(that's not to excuse bad DW episodes, because i'm sure i can think of some, its just that i can give it a free pass easily because i love the show so much).
Ah, lol thanks. Yeah when it comes straight down to it, I loved the character development, but, I guess I probably get all this stuff from being Trekie, XD I'm quite logical when I think out how a story progresses and if it doesn't make sense or if something just pops out of nowhere without a logical explanation, it just seems to bother me throughout the entire thing. XD;; idk why. but I watched about 90% of the episode with this face ...literally
LOL yup, exactly, XD my friend summed it up like the Doctor, "wibley wobley, timey, whimey stuff"
ahahz!! XD really it is?? ah, I'll just have to get farther and see for myself then lol
Lol, ah thanks, :3 and yeah, XD I'll be able to live with it, it'll just bug me for a bit. But, I'll get over it, lol I love the show and the Doctor just too much! LOL
(exactly, there have been a few eps here and there that I just didn't care for, but every show has that lol)
