Does anyone here watch Dr. Who? It's by far my favorite show. The new season premier was on Saturday.
I love the Doctor! Haven't had a chance to watch the new episode. There's rumors that after this season finishes out, we won't see anything new until fall of 2014. Stephen Moffett needs to pick a series and stick with it.
I like DW. Bells of Saint John sucked though.

You all know about Silence Day right?
When is that. I've seen that before.
It is April 23, it's going to be so much fun
What channel?
Silence Day is basically when you'll go out with tallies on your arms. This will be in public. Not an actual episode.
I just ordered some Doctor Who stickers for my vehicle and guitar. Pretty excited about it.
One is the "Dalek - To Victory" war propaganda poster, the other is a mashup of Bad Wolf and Game of Thrones, and the third is "Keep Calm and Don't Blink" with a mini TARDIS on it.
That's awesome I have a replica of the sonic screwdriver
I love Doctor Who. I have a Dalek replica and a weeping angel shirt! Trying to get my girlfriend into it as well. I just watched the latest episode as I worked out this morning. It was really good! I liked seeing that actor from Game of Thrones in it.
Doesn't it kinda creep you out to look around see statues and think that they're Angels just waiting for you to blink
What if there was a doctor who trading card game?
I'd be obsessed with it
How would it be played though?
I have no idea ill ponder it for a day or two and get back to you

I agree with Matt smith in a close second
The Tenth is my Doctor, but im growing fond of 11.
What's everyone's favorite companion? Mine is Donna Noble. Catherine Tate is hilarious and she wouldve made a good Doctor. I have mixed feelings on Amy and Rory. I loved Rory but found Amy annoying. Im excited to see Clara's story pan out. I have to catch up.

I LOVED Donna. Amy and Clara made me feel like they were there merely for pretty faces. I could be wrong, but that is what it seems like to me. Donna was hilarious. Clara is alright- but she is growing on me as well.
Martha was worthless hahah. I hated her. What was the point with her? I liked the chemistry rose and Nine had much more than Rose and Ten. I wish Eccleston would've stayed more than one season. I actually liked him a lot, even though he was the depressing Doctor. Rightfully so, I suppose. I'd probably be a little dark and moody if I just wiped out my entire race hahah.

I like Rose, she stuck around even after the regeneration and she came back to see him

Personally I think Epic Rap Battles of History is corny, but the guys that did Tennant and Baker did really good jobs. The guy doing Doc Brown was more like Brandon DiCamillo in Gnarkill than Doc Brown.

I'm hoping for some kind of mashup with tons of the Doctor's enemies, like the finale of two seasons ago when the Doctor was at Stonehenge, surrounded by enemies in spaceships (with the Pandorica, that episode!) I think those kinds of episodes are the best kinds to hope for when considering it.

Ah yes. That would be sweet. Daleks, Weeping Angels, the Silence, the Ood (although I never really saw them as enemies,) Sontaran, Cybermen. That would be great if they all made appearances.

Go for it! I think I'll be wearing a Tennant trench coat.
Im too doughy to be Tennant or Smith :( If I dressed like one of them, I'd just look like a fat guy in dress clothes. Baker's garbs are distinct enough for people to recognize.

Yeah, Baker's outfits sure were distinct! I have a slim physique, so I am able to pull off the 'Tennant style without it looking TOO bad. That being said, I am not the man himself, more's the pity.
I was Matt smith for Halloween and the costume turned out pretty good :), btw has any one else seen the latest episodes?

Highly recommend this. Start with the "new" stuff on Netflix. It kicked back off with the 9th Doctor (Christopher Eccelston). Easy point to jump in to the universe. Teaches you the background stuff and gives you the new as well.

That is one of the reason I love Nine. Eccelston did a great job with the moral struggle of his actions and whether he should simple continue that path or overcome it. Survivor's guilt that they showed instead of telling you every other minute "Remember what I just did". Ten became the resolution of that. Just one of the many reasons it is such a great show.

Yeah I actually made a magic bet about whether they would reveal his name
My bet he is a past regeneration, one that he has chosen to forget, or maybe was made to forget. He said that he is the one who betrayed the name Doctor.

Im half way through the sixth season. It got really boring on the fifth, and this season is torture to watch. But I can't quit watching it. While we're on the subject of different series, I might cry this summer when Breaking Bad and Dexter ends, and when Doctor Who goes on its supposed hiatus until Fall 2014.

Yep. Breaking Bad is done after these eight episodes airing in August.
Doctor Who isn't going on a real hiatus. We'll get the 50th anniversary episode in November, then a Christmas episode, and then it'll most likely return in the Fall of 2014. Over a year before we get a proper DW season.
John Hurt doesn't look right for the doctor. Otherwise, season seven finale was awesome yet terrifying (just like most season seven part two episodes)

That's an interesting article. I loved 11. This new season made me live him more. 10 will still be my favorite. I found it interesting that Matt Smith was in a show with Billie Piper in 2006. The doctor coincidences continue.
David Tennant is married to the 5th Doctor's daughter. She played 10's daughter, Jenny. She also went to school with 6's daughter.
So the Doctor's daughter x2 went to school with the Doctors daughter and married the Doctor and together had a daughter.
Why? Because its fun.

Did you know that for the role of the 11th doctor Matt Smith has to be on set 12 hours a day 10 months a year
They're going to release the next doctors name in July
Please be Catherine Tate, please be Catherine Tate, please be Catherine Tate.
Stiff as a feather, light as a Catherine Tate.
I am really sad about Smith leaving :(
News people found out the actor for the next doctor and since they found out they're going to release it within the next 24 hours here is a list of the 3 they think the doctor is going to be
1. Domhnall Gleeson
2. Dominic Cooper
3. Daniel Kaluuya

I had so much hope that Tennant would return, but I like the looks of this new guy.
Well, I'm glad that Tennant will have one last episode at the 50th anniversary along with Smith and Hurt. I guess Eccleston doesn't really care. He was my least favorite anyway. This new guy looks way older that the last three, so either they broke the rule that the Doctor gets younger or it was just a theory.
He kind of looks like an older tennet to me
It will be... Interesting. I wonder if he will have to fake an English accent like Tennant had to.

I was looking at the IMDB page for World War Z and apparently Capaldi's character's name in that movie is "W. H. O. Doctor." Looks like no one caught that hint when it was dropped months ago.
Unless it was just a coincidence. Id like to think that it was not.
Also I didnt realize he was in the Fires of Pompeii, along with Karen Gillan.

Thank you! Bring Tennant back! Bring Tennant back! As an intern at the biggest Shakespeare theatre in Washington, I have access to all Shakespeare actors' contact information. As Tennant is in this database I could pull up his cell or email but I'm sure it wouldn't make him come back as doctor :(

I can agree with you. Tennent was amazing and I too wish Eccleston had more than 1 season. For me it was the depth he put into a character that was dealing with the largest case of survivors guilt ever and could have had to dealt with it for centuries in that form. From the manic introduction of "Nice to meet you Rose, now run for your life" to the bitter and angry "Stupid Apes", it was all Fantastic!

For anyone who might be interested, on Aug 30 BBC America is showing the Doctor Who TV Movie that is the only screen time of Paul McGann (8th Doctor). Just a friendly FYI for those that might not know.

What time?
Don't know yet. Just saw the commercial for it. Would guess about 6pm but I will make sure to post it once I find out.

Your local thrift store!
Im going as the Fourth for Halloween this year and my plan for the scarf is to find some old scarves in a thrift store and sew them together.
I may even make a K-9 costume for my dog.

One of my friends(who is a whovain) at school was denying it and saying it was a building, I'm like 'you can't deny what is true'
Just found out the Cinemark in my town is showing Day of the Doctor in 3D on the 25th. I'm floored. I was worried it wasn't going to come here.
The Night of the Doctor, the new "prequel" short. Eight Doctor...Frakking AMAZING. Enjoy Whovians!

Painting With a Twist (don't know if that's a local thing or a franchise; it's basically this thing where people go to paint and drink wine) is doing a Doctor Who theme this Friday for the 50th anniversary. I would love to go make a TARDIS painting and get drunk but it's $35 per person. Too expensive.

The War Doctor was amazing. Not that I expected less from an actor of John Hurt's caliber, but he really got across the situation and circumstance of that version. He hated the choice but saw no other way out.

And having him frigging show up as the curator!!!! (👈 Fourth Dr. cameo deserves that many exclamation marks).

I really really enjoyed the camaraderie between the three Doctors. "Must you talk like youre a child?"

I can't wait. Tennant was the best.
^Tennant is my Doctor.
My question is will the Christmas special be in the timeline before the 50th special? I read in many articles that the Christmas special is when Eleven regenerates into Twelve but as you can see at the end of Day of the Doctor, Twelve already exists. Also, does John Hurt's Doctor regenerate into Nine since Nine came fresh from the Time War?

Now I brought this up with a friend, how can John Hurt be between 8 and 9, because in the day of the doctor it has all 13 there that means he must have come before 1 for all the rest of them to know to be there at that time

In the bio of the 9th (Eccles) it says "fresh from the time war" ;)
And when Eccleston came BBC made an end to the 13 doctors rule and made it infinite :(
I'm not talking about that rule, I'm talking about where John Hurt actually fits in the doctors time line because he doesn't seem to fit anywhere

In Night of the Doctor, Eight regenerates into Hurt's Doctor, who is known as the War Doctor. If you want to be technical, he's the true Ninth Doctor and everyone after him is bumped up. Nine becomes Ten, Ten becomes Eleven, etc. Moffatt also said he gives us the option of not giving Hurt a number and just having eleven Doctors and one War Doctor.

In the same article, Moffatt said he doesn't intend to change the "only 12 regenerations" rule. So Eight to John Hurt used up a regeneration, but he isn't a numbered Doctor, and Capaldi will be the last Doctor unless they change the canon.

Wrong. In the 8th doctor movie you see both regeneration a of the 8th and he has no chance to do what he does. You follow him the whole time.
Is there anywhere I can watch the special? Maybe on BBC.com? I haven't been able to see it yet...

A haiku from YouTube:
the day of the doctor

HA HA HA HA NERDS
I'm sick and going on a "Best of DW marathon", and now watching Waters Of Mars. I haven't had anything up drink for over 8 hours but I'm really afraid to :-\
Just started watching the show last week and almost done with the 7th serial. This show is fantastic
I stayed up until 1:30 last night watching Dr. Who.
One more week! I'm excited to see Capaldi take the reigns.
I can't wait either
Just saw the doctor who it was amazing
Finally got to watch "The Time of the Doctor". While it left out some things I wanted to see, it was a great episode. Too bad it doesn't come back until next fall, so I have heard.

Sadly this is one bit I don't think we will ever know.
I just want to know what the people of London are going to do for the next year since the Daleks didnt destroy the city this year.
These last two specials brought Matt Smith's Doctor back in my opinion. His performance has been lackluster, especially with the leaving of Amy and Rory. But his performances in The Name... And The Time... were fantastic
I'm a little sad they just brought back Amy and not Rory.

I hope Clara leaves soon. She's dull as a companion in my opinion. No one will ever top Donna Noble, though.

I found the Amy "return" fitting. They kept pointing out "(she was) the first face this face ever saw". Seemed fitting that his mind would come full circle and have her be the last face he saw too. Also, "Good night, Raggedy Man" had my wife in tears.

I have to wait a year for doctor who and ill be in college when the next Sherlock comes out( in two years), Netflix does only so much for me.
I look like Benedict Cumberbatch mixed with the 11th doctor. I oftentimes get stopped on the street and am asked to take a picture with someone
Community has been placating my TV time between reading but they reference Doctor who a lot, so it makes me miss it.
