Doctor Who - Season 3, Episode 4.

[logansrogue]

Okay dudes. This is the post to do it.

TALK GEEKY TO ME! Talk about the DOCTOR! :D I want to talk about what you think of the season so far, of the last episode, of how the season is going. But please:

- No spoilers. If you know what's coming, I don't want to know. I know a few things but I don't want details. I'm enjoying thoroughly the week-by-week adventure.
- No Martha bashing. I really do like her.

Go crazy! :D

Something I realised today, after watching that episode at your place: while I quite enjoy watching the show (even if it isn't a big favourite or anything), I find that the "next time on Doctor Who" preview thingy at the end of each episode completely kills any desire I have to watch the next one. They just make it looks so .... stupid. They certainly manage to write good TV, but they really suck at previews.

Having not watched enough of the show to form a proper opinion on anything especially important like, you know, content, I'll just leave you with that :)

Oh, that's previews for you. I ignore them generally other than trying to get an idea of what next week's episode is about. Problem with you is that you're too discerning. I'll accept nearly any old crap that's thrown at me as long as it has David Tennant running around in his spunky outfit.

You should see it all! It's a fun watch! :D (And it's got a busty blonde with buck teeth running through and being awesome for the first two seasons - surely you can get behind that! LOL!)

I'm the sort of person who gets pretty excited over previews (particularly movie trailers, but that's a bit different), and a good preview can totally win me over in the decision of to-watch-or-not-to-watch. But the Doctor Who ones (that I've seen at least) are just terrible.

It's certainly on my list of stuff I should check out, along with at least a dozen other established series. I've only caught about ten episodes of the Eccleston/Tennant series, but I've liked them all. Now that SwanCon is over I've got a lot more spare time for undertakings like that :P

There's only one busty blonde for me! But Rose does seem to be a big fan-favourite, but every account I've seen. Martha seems like a cool companion, too.

Make that "by every account"...

I didn't even notice, actually. I'm too busy trying to have a period.

The thing one has to accept about Doctor Who from the get-go is that it's cheese central. It's got a rich history of ridiculousness going back forty years. Sure, the new Doctor Who is new with cool effects but it's still the BBC making it :D

Awww. I like the cut of your jib, good sir. Give that busty blonde a boff in the head with a pillow from me.

A lot of people are backlashing against Martha cause RTD is too fucking eager for people to like her. Thankfully the character is good enough to grow and break free of the pre-season puff-up. I've thoroughly enjoyed her so far, but I like brainy, dark-haired girls with brown eyes and cute bums :D
