Let's talk about Doctor Who.

[Strike Witch]

So, anyone else been really enjoying Matt Smith's Doctor?

I think he's got a nice mix of Tennant's charm with the alien-ness that has been lacking lately.

Plus lots of love for Moffat!

Oh by the way

These guys have streams of this season's eps if they aren't in yer countree yettt.

[Havoc]

Let's not.

[OddjobAbe]

Unless it's about Jon Pertwee.

[Phylum]

Airing here in 15 mins. I can wait.

Yes, the Doctor Who Wiki has a page about Jammy Dodgers now...

I would totally do his new assistant. Also; he's not too bad. Not in that way. No.

Last night's episode was unspeakable wank, and yet completely indicative of how Doctor Who is evolving. Doctor Who encounters "Churchill vs. the Daleks" (wank), historical character is cheeky but noble (as opposed to the batshit insane he was historically — wank), older design of something is replaced with newer "awesome" design void of subtlty, despite the fact this has no effect on characters' actual awesomeness (wank), more pointless prophecies that would make an astrologer balk at the vagueness (wank). Doctor Who has become even more bland, predictable, unintelligent, mass-produced and painful than The X-Factor.

Summed up thusly: The new white Dalek is called "The Eternal", but Stephen Moffat and Mark Gatiss both admit they don't know what that means yet ("but it sounds cool").

Next week is "River Song vs. the Weeping Angels", which is beyond wank. It's Moffat just sponaneously ejaculating. Ejaculating through the television and into your eyes.

[OddjobAbe]

I can't be bothered with the new series at all. I was a little unsure about the Christopher Ecclestone series, although Ecclestone made it watchable. It went down hill from there. I used to love the old ones when I was about nine, and still do quite enjoy them, but they certainly seem much less amazing than they did back then.

[Wings of Fire]

The old ones were never amazing, they were always cheesy shit and that's why I like them.

[OddjobAbe]

The old Daleks were definitely better. Their rickety appearance made them more threatening (somewhat, anyway. The Daleks' appearance has never really been threating) in my opinion.

JESUS CHRIST how about a spoiler alert there?

[MA]

Josh never uses spoilers, just like he never used to use tard faces for vagina's.

[Sekto Springs]

The old Daleks were definitely better.

Not to mention fucking iconic.
Ah well. At least the new Dr. Who didn't do to the Daleks what new Battlestar Galactica did to the Cylons. Now they look too much like those B2 battle droids from Star Wars.

[used:)]

I keep missing the premiere. I've only seen the ending. I totally agree with you about Smith's alien-like quality, which makes it more atmospheric for me. I liked Tennant's doctor as well, though.

[shaman]

The ones from the 60's are actually pretty good.

And this new guy isn't that bad.

Isn't Dr Who meant to be wank?

Ecclsestone was shit.

[OddjobAbe]

I completely disagree. I would even say that he was up there with Tom Baker and Jon Pertwee.

[Wil]

Isn't Dr Who meant to be wank?

It's hardly meant to be high calibre or gritty realism or subtlty in television form. But it could do without being wank. If I were OANST I'd complain about how it's now being written by fans of the original series, but I'd have thought real fans would want to treat it better. Maybe it's because they're the original fans who felt ostracized from popular society because they were such geeky afficionados, and now they're trying desperately to prove how popular and amazing they can be.

*shrug*

All I can say is that Fat Suit Churchill looks ridiculous. You're telling me, show, that you couldn't find a fat actor who looked / could play the part? As they say across the pond, BOLLOCKS.

I've always despised fat suits. OH, LAWL

ANYWAY. Where do I pick up with Dr. Who? Last time I left them, the Dr and his latest arm candy had switched realities, with the Doctor and her forgetting who they were and adopting completely new identities, until whats-her-name remembers and has to remind the Doctor of who he is, while a family of aliens takes over a school.

I haven't had the chance to catch up since then.

[Mac Sirloin]

I watched like 3 minutes of some new episode where he talks to a big eyeball.
It occupied me.

Like the actor who looked almost exactly like him in Inglorious Basterds?

[Strike Witch]

The only real problem I had with the Dalek ep was that it seemed a bit rushed. I can see where Max is coming from, but to me it's always been like that, and what changed it from shit to good IMO is the strength of the actors and the lack of Russel in the new episodes.

Also, The Dalek serving tea made me giggle.

[Wings of Fire]

Why are all my friends Dr Who nerds?

[Dipstikk]

Also, The Dalek serving tea made me giggle.

Oh god, that does sound funny.

BRISK IS NOT REAL TEA! BAD TASTE! EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!

Like the actor who looked almost exactly like him in Inglorious Basterds?

I haven't seen that movie more than once. :C

[Dipstikk]

EDIT: PENISES, I SEEM TO HAVE MISCOMBOBULATED MY POSTLINGS.

[Sekto Springs]

You double posted, you FUCK.

[used:)]

MODERATE! MODERATE!


Yeah, that was dumb.

[Pilot]

Let's talk about Doctor Who

Let's don't and say we did.

That wasn't a fat suit you fucking moron, Ian McNeice is a fat fuck.

[Wil]

Yeah, Dipstikk, stop ragging on fat people.

[STM]

You thought that was a fat suit. Twat.
