Oh yes please! May I suggest a topic of your favorite regeneration of the Doctor?
|
Sure, I forgot topic and new fan applications as well.
So far out of all the old doctors, my favorite has to lie somewhere between Pertwee and Davison. Baker is an overrated doctor, brilliant mind you. See pertwee is the perfect older doctor, sophisticated, wisened but full of life, where as Davison is the perfect young guy doctor, all over the place and quite a fancy dresser I might add. Some of my favorite old who moments belong in both of their runs, even if most of the old stuff is sublime. |

Favorite Doctor: David Tennant Favorite Companion: Hmm, toughie. I'd say Amy and Rory. Or just Amy. |
Now that the form is there
Username: Jake♫ Favorite Doctor: Tenth - David Tennant Favorite Companion: Rose The only old doctors that I've seen are Baker and Davison, and I did enjoy them both. I just really need to go back and watch some more of Classic Who. New doctors it's easily Tennant. Although Eccleston was my first and I enjoyed him thoroughly, I feel like he was too rage-filled from dealing with the Time War and it took away from his likeability. I feel Tennant was just the perfect Doctor, and Matt Smith is pretty good as well, but I don't think he lives up to Tennant's legacy. |
Yeah, Tennant was amazing. Only thing is he could have been better if he didn't have RTD. Not saying Moffat, cause while he does do some great stuff he's a walking retcon machine, but someone other then RTD. Eccleston was the same issue too, unfortunately.

Ah, I'm definitely joining here! :D
Username: Alakazam17 Favourite Doctor: David Tennant Favourite Companion: Martha Jones I started watching Doctor Who a few years ago when my then roommate introduced me to the series. I had already been a fan of Torchwood(seeing Martha there first), and I had no idea it was a spinoff until my roommate told me. So I believe I'm one of the few who went from Torchwood to Doctor Who as opposed to the other way around. Nonetheless I love Doctor Who now, having watched all of the new series, and I can't wait for the next season to commence later this year! |
Bowties are cool. ;]
Username: Narnia Favourite Doctor: DAVID TENNANT Favourite Companion: Donna David Tennant is definitely one of the most amazing doctors! I've heard David Tennant himself was a huge fan of Doctor Who when he was younger and I love all the passion he puts into playing his role :3. Some of his quotes were also hilarious and honestly I couldn't find a single thing to complain about him, he has dashing good looks and also his personality is quite interesting :3. As for Donna, I guess I chose her as the companion that stood out most to me. She didn't have the same sort of love that goes on between The Doctor and other companions, where the companion shows a slight crush but she is still an interesting character nevertheless. Her personality was also wonderful, a little hot headed at times but other than that it was really unfortunate the events that happened in the end. I think Rose was a close favourite of mine as well, she had that cheerful and uplifting personality which I like, honestly serious is one of my least favourite traits. :x I haven't actually seen much Classic Who haha, I've seen a couple of episodes and that's been good, should get around to watching more. Also there has been some sort of rumour of the first eighty episodes of Doctor Who being lost I think, which is interesting to hear. Has anyone else heard of this? :o |
Welcome new members! Yeah Donna was indeed great for her non-romance angle, making her my favorite too. I didn't mind Rose, but Martha was taking the whole "fawning over the Doctor" thing too far. I always loved it when Donna slapped the doctor those 2-3 times to give him a reality check. Also they're gonna air the missing 80 episodes? Where did you hear that?

Username: Lightning
Favorite Doctor: 9, right now. (Love 10 but upon rewatching, I've preferred 9's sass a lot more. :P) Of Classic Who, I haven't seen very much but I really like everything I've seen of 2. Favorite Companion: Donna. I love the BFF dynamic between her and the Doctor. No romance mucking it up, just fun and arguing. :3 Happy to see lots of Donna fans here. I too often run into people who dislike her and I just... don't understand why?? She's excellent! And such a breath of fresh air in NuWho. :x |
Prolly cause she's the only one who actually stands up to the doctor instead of making him out as some sort of god. I seriously hope Clara is like that with the doctor, considering how this is the first time Nu-Who has a companion from the 1800s.

If you've seen the Christmas special...
Spoiler:

Yeah it was confusing. I want to know what the hell is going through Moffats mind with the actor playing 3 different parts:
1-As a Dalek in the Asylum 2-As an 1800s waitress who dies 3-As a companion who is seemingly going to be both of those Hopefully its not a river, cause the time gaps between these eras suggest some time- wimey wibbly wobbly stuff going on, but what? What is it the doctor needs to remember, that the universe gave him not one, but two copies of this girl, and even a 3rd who will travel with him. |
I could see a few reasons explaining all the seemingly identical women. The least likely is that they're all just related, as I seem to remember Gwen from the Torchwood series also playing a 1800's woman in one of the very first episodes with the 9th Doctor.
More plausibly, I think they all may be dopplegängers, though that theory is still a little iffy because they seem to share more than just physical appearance. But I still see this as being possible, at least more so that my previous suggestion. And finally, what I believe will be the most plausible explanation, is that she is some glitch in the fabric of space-time, perhaps related to the Doctor moving this way and that way throughout the universe. I can imagine an "omg it's all my fault" scene from the Doctor, especially after what happened to Amy and Rory. Thus I think the Doctor is just being trolled by the universe. :D |
Quote:
But I've still got my fingers crossed that she'll settle down and not flirt with him 24/7 once she's eased into the role and he's not as new and unknown to her anymore. |

I think why everyone didn't really like Donna at first was because during Runaway Bride she was kind of just...obnoxious. As far as Season Four goes she grew on me so much, as she developed from annoying temp to actually important character with actual development. The fact that she wasn't falling head-over-heels for the Doctor also helped, since it allowed her to be go through characterization that wasn't just based around him. Sure, he touched her and helped make her a better person (even though her mind was wiped), but it was based upon her growing.
And I'm really hoping Oswin isn't another Doctor-infatuated female character. From what I understand she sort of...respawns in different time lines, with very faint memories of her previous lives. She doesn't know exactly who the Doctor is, but certain characteristics pass on from one life of hers to another. |
Mmm I can see what Jake is saying! To be honest I hated her at first sight, she was obnoxious, rather rude and a bit bossy I must say, so most people just sort of think she's always like that. But there's character development and she does turn into a wonderful person, although most people probably didn't give her a second chance after that episode. :(
I'm hoping so too. Clara did sort of seem like she was in love with the Doctor already but hopefully, she'll sort of change. I'd like to see a mix of personalities rather than the same falling in love with the handsome guy with a machine called the TARDIS. I mean the first time it was interesting but now it's getting so boring and repetitive. I know the extra throw in of romance is nice, but honestly I want a change. I sort of want Clara to stand out from the rest you know? :x |
I guess that's true. I'm kind of lucky (?) in that the first episodes of DW I ever saw were very late in series 4 so Donna had done most of her character development. So even when I went back and watched from the beginning, I knew how she'd turn out so I knew how much slack to cut her as I watched her early episodes. :P

Oh also can there soon be a companion who doesn't have the universe revolving around them? :x I was hoping Clara would be that (as well as an EarthHistorical!companion) but it seems not to be the case. Well, more than seems. Is not the case. |
Yeah that's the one thing I hated about Amy and Rory, and I'm kinda miffed that Moffat is doing it for Clara as well. However, the universe seems to not be revolving around her as much as its the universe or some other force(I'm still betting its the Silence behind her appearance everywhere)pushing her into the doctor's life to get him to remember something. Again, the Silence have been forgotten up till now, we still have the Fall of the Eleventh that is a major plot point, so we'll see. Something tells me Clara is gonna be like Rose, in that she is another companion who witnesses the doctors regeneration and travels with the 12th for a season or two.

If it is the silence, they somehow got her to remember them without the eyepatch. So that there is a start on how they can make them connect. Now how exactly would that work, I dunno. Cloning maybe?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRQu3MvRySA Posted this post again thanks to ^, a new trailer. Unst Unst Unst, that 707 bit is amazing. Fields of Trenzalore at the end?! http://insidetv.ew.com/2013/03/16/doctor-who-trailer-matt-smith/ Same trailer more footage. http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/new-series-7-part-2-posters-46206.htm Posters for the first 4 episodes. Hide looks and sounds amazingly horrific. |
I have no idea which episode the "I am the Doctor, and I am afraid" line is from, but I'm definitely looking forward to that one the most. If there's something that can genuinely scare the Doctor THAT much, it has to be good.
|
Which part has it? I have no audio. If its in the forest, then yeah that episode looks to spectacular. So much is gonna happen this time, I can feel it.
|
Yup, it's the forest one. It looks incredible. Honestly I was feeling rather meh about the rest of the season, but after the trailers I can genuinely say I'm pumped up for it.
|
Something also tells me we got a glimpse at some sort of Silent in the trailer, right at :32. I seriously can't wait for this to turn out to be the season of the silence, simply because I love what they mean for the series. Dalek and Cybermen? Eh the doctor is irked and super pissed off at them, but the Silence? Gives him a run for his money, and then some.
And indeed. The trailer does wonders. The series feels so much more grounded, but classic at the same time. Some of the stuff seen though, holy crap. Tardis on a 707? SOLD. |
I feel like the entire first half of season seven has just been very bland. Dinosaurs On A Spaceship was just...ugh. Angels Take Manhattan made me go from loving the Weeping Angels in Blink to hating them. It just gives me hope that Moffat is pulling his head out of his butt and giving us a great season 7.5. Not that the first half is all on him, he didn't write every episode, but as head writer he should be able to change the stuff that was just silly.
|
Season 7 was alright for me, although some of the episodes were rather dull and painful to watch. Angels in Manhattan for me was a tragic but well-thought out episode, you would never expect the Doctor's companions to suddenly poof away, they're giving you the unexpected in my opinion. At least that's from my point of view, I was thinking any minute the Doctor would come in out of nowhere and whisk them to safety before trying to fight off the angels. But it's interesting though the outcome of that episode, because it's usually in most shows at least the good people or the protagonists win without anyone dying or disappearing rather than evil truimphing.
And I don't know Season 7 was good for me at least except for maybe Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, it wasn't particularly special. The only amusing or entertaining part for me was watching the man getting covered in dinosaur saliva and even that's only for a brief part of the episode. I'm hoping Season 7.5 will have a little more action along with interesting episode plots. :3 |
Are you kidding? Season 7 was amazing! We had a new kickass Doctor and brilliant ginger scientist Liz Shaw and having the Brig around all the time was awesome!
Er but yeah series 7... not so great. I actually liked the Power of Three best, even though the actual villain was kind of poor. It had just the right amount of cheese and comedy that I like~ And Kate Stewart oh bby girl she has to come back please and thank you. And I'm really sad that we probably won't see Brian again. :( He was just extremely great. |
Nothing from the first half of S7 stood out for me much. I guess I liked pretty much any scene with Brian because he's brilliant. The rest... I dunno, I found it really forgettable and if it wasn't forgettable, it's only because I didn't like it and ranted about it a little. So it's been kind of hard to get my hopes up for the latter half but I'm still hoping Clara will be great.

Username: DavidtheDeadPhilosopher
Favorite Doctor: Jon Pertwee Favorite Companion: Captain Jack Harkness The only two episodes in Series 7 I haven't liked so far is The Ayslum of the Daleks (Perhaps the worst Nuwho episode to date.) and Angels in Mannhatten. It was amazing on it's first view (I was in tears, tbh.), but repeated views suddenly make the episode seem very forced. Although it did handle the Angels alot better than the 2 parter from Series 5. Spoiler:

I'm excited and also disappointed I was spoilt for the news almost as soon as it broke, haha... although I doubt I'd be able to pay even partial attention to the fandom and not know by the time the 50th Anniv special airs.

He is called 'The Doctor' not 'Doctor Who'. Neither is he called 'Dr. Who'. Also technically he is not just a time traveller. He travels in space and time, technically if you really think about it he never exists in one place. He honestly can be everywhere at once, even in different incarnations. We're watching 11 right now, but remember, somewhere in space and time, all the others are still living and doing their work. An incarnation of the Doctor is never dead/gone. Sweet Rassilon, please fix that. In fact, that whole intro... First off, the Doctor isn't even human, you just, ah, happen to not mention that. He looks human (or do humans look Time Lord?) You know, the Regeneration thing, and two hearts, plus multiple other things. Seriously, all and all, not the best intro, but if someone is planning on joining the club than they must already know the show in the first place so in theory it's probably not a big deal. You know unless a new person to the show comes along and wonders what it is or something. They might get a bit confused. Anyways, I was a rather active member in the old thread before it died last season, so I might as well try again. Username: Seriously? It's up there, see? The top of the post? Next to that picture? Favorite Doctor: In order fav to least fav; 10, 5, 9, 4, 11, 8, 3, 2, 1, 7, 6. Favorite Companion: Sarah Jane Smith I am a true TARDIS blue Whovian. Thoughts on series seven thus far... I am not impressed in the slightest. (Just like EternallyAnna if it's over two months old I'm not spoiler-ing it) Amy and Rory's leaving was... I felt it was rather half done and the episode moved far too quickly and the plot behind it all was sloppily written. In fact this whole series has been sub par, and I really expected more of Moffat than this. I just hope this is a small hiccup. What I really hope is that whatever happens, the 50th Anniversary is going to be done well, and in a tasteful manner that won't be ripping out the stll beating hearts of die hard fans who have been watching this show for decades, and even for the new fans who have been watching it for nearly another decade in its reboot. Also, there are no words to express my rage at the end of season 6. None at all. It almost ruined the show for me. If Moffat can't pull his head out of his ass and fix it they will have lost a die hard fan and simply have gained someone that watches the show. |
Okay first and foremost, sorry for being inactive, trying to get back into the net. Second, I'll fix the intro, eventually. It was sloppy, and I admit it needs work. Third, welcome all new members. Your names will get on the member list, don't worry. Just need time on my part.

How did I not know this was here before? I absolutely must join.
Username: Somniac Favorite Doctor: Out of the original airings I would say Tom Baker [4th doctor] was my favorite, that was until the newer airings where I fell in love with David Tennant. I think Tennant bought an emotion to the doctor that we hadn't seen before, the 'angry / chaotic / in pain' doctor, seen in episodes like 'the runaway bride' or the 'family of blood' [He pushes Mother of Mine out of the TARDIS into the event horizon of a collapsing galaxy, wraps Father of Mine in unbreakable chains forged in the heart of a dwarf star, traps Sister of Mine in every mirror in existence, and suspends Son of Mine as a scarecrow.] Favorite Companion: I enjoyed Amy as a companion, once Rory because more of an integral part. The two had a good chemistry and they seemed more actual friends to the doctor than companions at points. |
I just finished watching Cold War! I loved it :3
So what are people's thoughts on Clara so far? Maybe it's just because of my love of Amy and Rory, but I'm just having a hard time getting excited or interested in her character. She was more interesting in her previous incarnations then she is now. Maybe that will develop with the season though... |
Clara's alright. I haven't seen Cold War yet (wow I should get on that; new episode is tomorrow), but I really liked her interaction with the little girl in the second episode of this half. I've never really liked the 11th Doctor's interactions with... anyone. He's always just been so awkward and inhuman which is absolutely fine, but something about Clara's genuine warmth with others is just refreshing. Aside from that, I don't really have any opinions on her so far. She's kind of generic as far as characters go. But I've only seen two episodes with this Clara so I don't feel like I can judge yet.
|
So does anyone else have any more thoughts on recent episodes?
I reallly enjoyed the last two episodes alot! I still think my favorite of the season is Cold War, but Hush and Journey to the Center of the Tardis were both great! Still can't find a reason to enjoy Clara though... :( |

Hello, new members! n_n
I think the finale is this weekend, right? Was anyone here one of the lucky few whose season blu-rays shipped out early by accident? ;P I'm pretty happy with the fandom for keeping it under wraps despite that. I can't say I'm necessarily super excited for it, but I hadn't watched any episodes in a while so I marathoned everything to catch up from Cold War last week and now I feel a bit empty after so much Doctor Who at once. So it'll be nice to having something new this week. I think I downloaded a whole bunch of 2nd Doctor stuff recently so I'm excited to watch that because I've liked everything I've seen from him so far. Definitely my favourite of the Classic Doctors I've seen at this point. |
OMFG so sorry everyone, I have no internet what so ever. Still, the finale should be amazing! Name of the Doctor? I hope not, such a mystery is best left untouched.
|
I adore the Second Doctor, the thing that's a real shame though, is a very large part of his time spent as the Doctor is lost. I mean there are the audio tapes of the episodes for most (as far as I know) of the episodes that were lost, but...it isn't the same.
I just recently bought my first audio recordings of those lost episodes...though it's a First Doctor Story. |

Welcome to all you new people!
I remember them announcing that Matt Smith would be leaving Doctor Who, leaving a new Timelord to follow in their footsteps. There have been a few possibilities of him being a female this time, just to twist things around perhaps, so what do you guys personally think about having a female Doctor? Would the concept work/would you approve of it? Or do you think they should just continue to have male Doctors? Personally I really don't mind. I hope they give the new Doctor an interesting personality and that's all really. What do you guys think? :o |
I really don't want a female Doctor. Wouldn't be the same.
I do want a male companion though, I'm a little tired of all of the ~*love*~ connections between him and the female companions. |

I think it's interesting how they cast someone quite older than the previous few incarnations. I can't really judge until his first episode, but I think Capaldi will make for an interesting Doctor.
|
I am excited. It'll be nice to have an older Doctor in the new series because it might mean they'll finally stop shoving the Companion and the Doctor into romance subplots together. :( I didn't mind it with Rose but it got stale fast after that.
I haven't really seen Capaldi in anything beyond his previous Doctor Who episode but just on that basis, I'm excited to see him if only because Fires of Pompeii was actually my first DW episode ever. (I caught the last 10 minutes or so and was completely hooked, just from that. ♥) I liked his character in that and a lot of people seem really happy about the choice so I can't wait to see how Twelve will be. Probably an unpopular opinion but honestly, I'm just happy Smith's tenure is gonna be over. I'm not really a huge fan of Eleven. |

I'm excited. Fifteen minutes, w00t!
|
Kinda spoiled myself so I pretty much know what happens. Who else loved the special?
|
I was pleased with the special. I was kind of dreading it because there was a lot of fuss over whether or not it would be a love letter to the series as a whole or just the '05 reboot (or even just Moffat's run from 11 onwards). I'm not very well-versed in Classic Who but I did still recognize a lot of references and since I set my bar pretty low, I was really entertained the whole way through.
Spoiler:
I had tickets to see it in 3D last night but I ended up downloading the episode and watching it on Saturday ahead of time because aaahhh no way was I gonna avoid the internet for two whole days so I wouldn't get spoilt. Seeing it in theatres was really cool though! The crowd was (almost) the nicest I'd ever seen in a theatre. Everyone squished right in from the start so everyone got as good a seat as they could possibly get and there were lots of cosplays. The only problem with seeing it in theatre with a bunch of huge fans was that sometimes the laughter and clapping made it hard to make out what what was being said on screen... so I'm glad that was my second viewing. :P *forcibly drags herself away from computer so she'll stop rambling* |
As I mentioned, I read up on it and something came to mind.
Spoiler:

I saw it in theaters and I was enjoying every single minute!

It was so good! Day of the Doctor completely defied my expectations. So powerful, and epic, and I have a new found respect for Clara (which I already had a ton of to begin with). It's like she was born to be the Doctor's companion.

As for the Christmas special, Spoiler:

[SPOILER]Something tells me its got to do with the fact that Galifrey is not actually gone, but really in hiding. I mean the time lords might have realized what happened, and either gave him an extension, or the huge history detour did something with the time streams. Factor in the silence and Trenzalore next ep and I think we have a plot stewing![SPOILER]
Just saw the 50th special. My god, what an episode. |
