allons-y Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 This thread, I like it. How'd I miss it? Next new episode is only a month and a half away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avelanch Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I love Sci- Fi as well as British humour and sensibilities but I have never felt Dr Who was even mildly entertaining. For the record, I didn't like Firefly either. Red Dwarf on the other hand.............. now THERE'S a series that deserves a reboot! Smeg off if you disagree.

Where's Wellwood Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 ^ "Clara Oswald"--who didn't see that coming? What mother calls her daughter by her full name in that situation anyways? Technically wasn't her full name. Didn't include the Oswin. But yeah, a real parent probably wouldn't have said her name at all, just scolded her for talking to the strange man.

Where's Wellwood Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Decent episode. Not quite up to the hype but at least the resolution was well thought out. So it seems that this Clara's middle name isn't Oswin. And I wonder what the Doctor did with the Spoonhead Doctor afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Is it just me, or has the quality of Doctor Who gone down after Matt Smith's first season (which was great)? At first I attributed this to Amy and Rory overstaying their welcome (three season's for companions). However, after Saturday's episode, I'm beginning to think that the writers have lost their "mojo", for lack of a better word. Last season was very forgettable, and the previous season had one terrific episode (written by Neil Gaiman). Hopefully the premiere is just a one off on what will be a great season, because Saturday's episode was a snorefest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's just not commanding enough (he has his moments) to make you feel like he's in charge... he feels more like just a smart companion. I thought it was due to Amy, but I still see it without her now. It's not "garbage" but it feels more like a "well... this is just for now, till we figure things out."

Again, I may be in the minority, but I think one of the main problems is that they are keeping Smith's version of the Doctor very one dimensional. This usually changes, as David Tennant version was different in his last 2 seasons then in his first season (the departure of Rose really changed him). Don't get me wrong, I like Smith's version a lot, but he hasn't really changed or been affected a great deal.I'm probably more critical of Doctor Who now than I was before because Moffat's other series, Sherlock, is not only infinitely better, but acted by Moffat's first choice as the new Doctor before Matt Smith was chosen.

Where's Wellwood Posted August 2, 2013 Author Share Posted August 2, 2013 http://doctorwhotv.co.uk/12th-doctor-revealed-on-sunday-52184.htm The 12th Doctor will be revealed on Sunday at 11 am PT. I don't have BBC1 or BBC America so unless Space decides to show it, I won't get to see the announcement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
