*Doctor Who I waited for 7+ hours on Monday the 11th in New York to see the premire of the first two episodes of this season and a Q & A with the cast & crew. My sister and I were the last two people let in the theater before they stopped the line. Was anyone else from the board there? Anyone else here like Dr Who? I didn't like Dr Who at all but my sister is obsessed. I had watched a couple of the episodes back in Season 1 of the reboot and wasn't impressed. From Friday after work to Sunday night we had watched the whole 5th season together and I really like this new doctor and the rest of the cast. I really went as a favor to her but ended up enjoying myself. http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,117035#msg-117035 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 22:06:29 -0700 Phorum 5.2.18 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,138448#msg-138448 Re: *Doctor Who http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,138448#msg-138448 kristameagan Whole Wide World Sun, 09 Dec 2012 13:07:25 -0800 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,131545#msg-131545 Re: *Doctor Who http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,131545#msg-131545
Just to make for some fun: I firmly believe that Matt Smith is the best of the new doctors. David Tennant was amazing, and I thought I would never get over his regeneration. Then in the first episode with baby amelia pond and The Doctor XI eats fishsticks and custard, I had cuteness overload. Sure, The Doctor X was an amazing actor, and he definitely had his funny moments. But The Doctor XI was just too much. One day we'll get married.

I didn't address Christopher Eccleston, because nobody cares about The Doctor IX.

So, The Doctor XI for favorite doctor, and a three way tie between Martha, Donna, and Sarah for favorite companion. Rose loses just because Micky was useless and her mother was annoying.

Captian Jack for favorite non-doctor entity on the show.

annnnd Daleks for favorite genocidal race hellbent on destruction.

So. Yeah. DOCTOR WHO!]]> Sethie Whole Wide World Wed, 11 Apr 2012 19:13:09 -0700 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,131486#msg-131486 Re: *Doctor Who http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,131486#msg-131486

one of my favourite moments of this winter occurred when i happened to be watching an episode on bbc america, and this came up on my twitter feed.

i recently finished an art-piece based on the eleventh doctor and his preoccupation with wearing a fez. i decided sort of randomly that i wanted to use it to make 5000 people smile, but my efforts haven't gotten it yet but just past 50 views. if any of you are doctor fanatics and can help me share it, i'd appreciate it quite personally. there's an essay beneath the piece that goes into a little detail about the whole thing.

further, i actually hope this thread gets some traction; the new season starts this saturday, 23 april, and i've been looking forward to it for such a long time.

edit: maybe the starter of this thread could retitle it "Doctor Who 2011" to differentiate. i know there's an old thread, but there are multiple threads on everything on this forum. let's just let the old conversation lie and continue a new one here!]]> kittenry Whole Wide World Wed, 20 Apr 2011 12:39:44 -0700 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,117337#msg-117337 Re: Dr Who http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,117337#msg-117337

what LearningHowToBreathe and toaster-chan said.

oh, and bill? here (aaaaand thanks!)

Wow thanks for that link! Sorry for double posting everyone but am a recent convert as of 4/8 and just had my head filled with season 5 & the first two of 6. By the way you guys, the new baddies are creeeeeeeeeeepy.

When Dr Who first came to Netflix streaming, I decided to check it out with all of my friends raving about the show. I started at "season 1" which is the Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper stuff. The episodes were monster of the week style and there was nothing grabbing me and wanting me to come back. Plus I had already started to hate Pipers character so I stopped after watching 4 episodes.

I can't wait till the new season starts so we can all talk about the new episodes. This current cast is pretty great, River Song and Amy Pond are really strong female characters and you don't find that alot in scifi shows. I really like the new doctor and am pretty sure he'll be my favorite when all is said and done.]]> dollabill Whole Wide World Fri, 15 Apr 2011 06:36:56 -0700 http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,117324#msg-117324 Re: Dr Who http://www.mountain-goats.com/forums/read.php?4,117035,117324#msg-117324

David Tennant was the best of the new doctors, but my favorite will always be Tom Baker.

Yeah, David was great. He really grew into the role and made it his own.

Basically, Doctor Who is like the perfect glass of orange juice -- it has to be a little pulpy or else it's just anaemic orangey sugar water. If you can tolerate the absolutely dorky moments, then it's a lot of fun to watch.
