Anyone else a Dr Who fan?
 

It's about the only TV show I watch. xD Love them all, from the first ones in the 60's to the series last season. The goofy special effects are so endearing! xD

Anyone else watch them?

i'm not too familiar with the original Doctor Who series, but I love the new BBC one. I was so sad when they replaced the doctor after only one season. Christopher Eccleston is DREAMY!!!!

Re: Anyone else a Dr Who fan?
 

*giggles* I grew up with reruns of 5-7th doctors.

And yes, the goofy special effects are quite endearing.

I can't wait until the new series starts up next week!

I miss Christopher Eccleston, too... but I like Tennant in the role as well! I hope they don't replace him after only a couple seasons :( I'd be quite put out!

i like him too...he's grown on me as I watch him

I am hopeing they keep him a season longer before they replace him. I mean i know the premise of doctors and all, but we don't need a new one each year...that will just be too much

I loved Eccleston, he was my first Doctor, but... Tennant is crazily adorable and I would travel with him in a heartbeat. I really want to see the old episodes, everyone says such great things about Tom Baker!

The show is brilliantly phenominal. The Harry Potter references this week were hilarious! Great, great ep. I was nervous about Martha, but in this week's episode I really liked her, and I'm glad she's there.

Of course, I still miss Rose, and it hurts so terribly when the Doctor misses her, too! It just breaks my heart.

It's the only other show besides House that I literally spend all week looking forward to!

i like Doctor Who, i love David Tennant as the doctor too! he's sexy 8) but he obviously has such fun playing the part that he makes it great to watch.
hopefully he'll be in it for a few seasons yet, they didn't get rid of christopher Eccleston, he left..

i've watched Doctor Who all my life, the first Doctor for me was tom Baker back in the 70's, it's been great to be able to grow up with the show.

i think i like torchwood better, but then torchwood is based on doctor who.

yes yes yes yes!

I've seen dr who since doctor #3 (pertwee? I forget his name) and upward. but when they got eccleston (oooooooooo, such a hawtie!!) it was like so much better than I ever remembered! and the chemistry between eccleston and billie piper was almost magical. I also enjoyed having an overall story-arc (bad wolf) throughout the entire season, so we were really building up to a huge climax.

at first I was sad when they got david tennant but he really grew on me after awhile. and he's a cutie in a corny sort of way—nothing like christopher but still a nice guy. and he was starting to develop that same kind of chemistry with piper.

and then they got rid of piper!! ;_;

i made myself sad. ;_;

Don't fret! Maybe she'll be back for a special one of these days!

Aaaah, I'm getting all teary thinking about the Doctor and Rose AGAIN! I'm such a sap. But I can't help it! Eccleston is all full of awesome and Tennant is all adorable and then there's Rose

I blame the actors and writers for making these characters so wonderful and lovable that seeing their tragedy makes me get wet eyes.

Anyone else see the most recent ep? Oh, man, it was brilliant, I had to watch it again. Tightly-constructed, surprising, revealing, and ominous all at once!

I really am liking Martha more and more with each ep. And I love how as awesome as she is, she's not a replacement for Rose, she's something entirely different. That was important for the show, I think, and it's great to see they nailed it with Freema.

OMG
 

i luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv dr who!!! i luuuuved billie piper as the assistant and was sad she left. but in all fairness i like the new assistant and plus billie piper is a stuck up cw so there lol

I LOVE Eccleston! He's the only one I've seen though. I've never seen Doctor Who until it came on OPB several weeks ago and I already love it! :D

DR who rocks!!!!!!!!!!

I consider myself a dr who fan. I may not have seen the original b&w series, but i love the new version.

I've never seen Dr. Who, but I do have a friend who's completely obsessed and I have learned a bit about the show.

I must say, out of all the characters, I happen to love the Daleks quite a lot. xD And the new series Dr. Who is a cutie. ;0

Don't like it.

Oh man! I love that show, but unfortunately I don't get to see it often!

I have to bring this up again to see what people think of the recent announcement of the new companion for the Doctor...I am not happy that they are bringing Catherine Tate on again -_-

I know, I was livid. I thought they'd get someone who could act. -_-

I hate both Martha and Tate.
