Fantastic!

I've become completely obsessed with Doctor Who since my friend told me I had to try it.  I've been talking to all of my friends about it (and gotten a few of them hooked), met a British guy and my first conversation with him was about Doctor Who, and almost cried when the 9th Doctor regenerated.

To add to my nerdiness, my roommate and I decided that we were going to fill our picture frames with photos of our favorite fictional characters.  Our first pick? David Tennant, as the 10th Doctor.  He proudly sits on our mantle, and honestly, I can't wait to have people over and watch what they do when they see it!

  1. David Tennant will always be my favorite doctor, and Rose will be my favorite Companion! I love how each episode manages to take to a new environment with new characters and adventures, yet you never feel out of place!

    It's not that I don't like Matt Smith, I'm just ready for a new Doctor with new companions! I also can't wait for more Weeping Angels! They are, by far, my favorite nemesis of the Doctor. The whole concepts of quantum lock and motion paradoxes are so interesting to me.

  2. I am a serious Dr. Who addict. I have introduced about four different people to it, and each time I end up having day-long marathons and watching entire seasons. When I saw Doctor Who on the syllabus for this class I was so psyched!

    I actually really love Matt Smith; "the Eleventh Hour" was the first episode I ever saw and what got me hooked. And I absolutely love the Silents, the idea of a memory-proof alien is so fascinatingly terrifying.

  3. I finally picked up Doctor Who a couple of months ago, and have been plodding through episodes ever since. I've only been exposed to Eccleston and Tennant so far (as I'm on season 4), but I prefer Tennant. I think Eccleston doesn't get enough credit though. He's not as idiosyncratic as most like their Doctor's to be, but I think he brought his own style to the table and did really well in the show's first season back.

    Also, I hate Donna. I hope Martha strangles her.

  4. Okay, I love the fact that you have a picture of the tenth Doctor on your mantle. I'm a huge Doctor Who fan. I started watching it last fall and blazed through every single episode of the new series. I've been in a drought for months, so I'm thrilled about the new episodes.
