Finally put my finger on it...
The Eleventh Doctor reminds of a children's book character. Finally, I made a connection.
He reminds me of the Cat in the Hat. It's not really a scholarly connection. More of an emotional one. He just...reminds me of him. The whole thing where he shows up at a child's house and acts silly, his general demeanor, his big pile of household items in "The Lodger," his quiet sadness when things don't turn out well for him.
Now I wish I still had that book. It was one of my favorites when I was really young.
