Anyone who spends time around me will realize that I adore speculative fiction. My favourite shows, movies, books... they all live in the "science fiction/fantasy" spectrum. This has been true for almost as long as I can remember - the first non-picture book to be my favourite read was "Convergent Series" by Larry Niven. Sure, at the time, I ( Read more... )

Hi Chris,

Mary is also an avid Doctor Who fan. I'll ask her if she's been won over too.

Momcat.

I like your music choice, BTW.

And I must check out the new Doctor Who, since it's gotten your seal of approval...

Figured you would :)

And if you haven't seen it by the next time I see you, I'd certainly watch it with you.

The second episode did not disappoint... I'm very much looking forward to the rest of this season.

You may hate me for it, but I wound up hyper anti-Tennant. By the end of his run I was working for the BBC in Cardiff and his smug sodding face was EVERYWHERE. I really grew to feel like the Tenth was oozing arrogance and self-indulgence from every pore.

As an old lady, I was a wee bit cross at having an even younger Doctor in Matt Smith, but he has pretty well charmed me. Helps that I got to see a lot of the outside scenes in his first episode being filmed (they were done in the Welsh village I walked through daily to and from the office) and colleagues of mine who worked on set reported back that he was humble, genuinely interested in what the crew were doing and how they did it, and generally just a lovely guy.

Tom Baker will always be the Doctor for me, regardless.
