I've never understood people's fascination with Doctor Who. So...meh.
*sbnvl*
my wife was into it, she would watch it and I was in the room so I'd be passively watching it. It seemed to not make sense how they are losing/not powerful, then a switch happens and the doctor is in total control.
Then a switch is thrown and you are a big fan and just get it.
One of the best bits about doctor who, they don't need big CGI, makeup etc to get your fear/excitement going, sometimes they throw out a few things and your imagination fills in the rest. When did the latest Michael Bay explosion get you going? Compared to reading a good book where you read some great prose and it gets your mind thinking ..
Its a great and flawed character, intelligent, lonely, has saved the world countless times, has killed so so many, has lost so much too.
