Tennant was so awesome that he wasn't relatable, he was like a superhero. Smith's Doctor is clearly not a superhuman, he's a mad Gallifreyan but that madness is like a weakness which makes him relatable. Stressing his alien nature humanises him. Well put. For me Tennant was too comfortable in the role. His confidence on screen gave him this invincible quality and because of that he never looked in danger. Usually screen presence is a great quality but Doctor Who is not supposed to be easy to relate too. He's almost a peripheral main character. | ||

There's like one, maybe two after that. Apparently they continue the story with a few online games or something, according to my friend. Yeah, only 12 this season which is unfortunate.

That's a good observation, I think. He does seem more fragile this season... perhaps because The Doctor is recovering from the events directly preceding it? From what I recall, he's not had any kind of chance of dealing with what happened at the end of Tennant's run, and suddenly there's the Amy/tear problem, and River shows up. Kind of a lot to deal with, even apparently for a Time Lord. | ||

And apparently Neil Gaiman has written the script for one of the new episodes. Can't wait. | ||

But still, combining the Three Ghosts of Christmas and time travel. I don't usually get excited about Christmassy things but this one was as good as they get imo. Especially compared to the previous Christmas specials. On December 27 2010 08:04 kerpal wrote: seriously? gaiman? that's awesome. love doctor who. Yep. 1, 2, and 7 are written by Moffat, 3 by Gaiman, 4 by Mark Gatiss and 5 and 6 by Matthew Graham. Just seven episodes but this is not necessarily a bad thing, especially in the light of some of the filler episodes from last season. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + The Silence I find Matt Smith's portrayal of the Doctor to be quite good. He isn't like the Tenth Doctor but then again why should he? Every Doctor is different and this is the case with the Eleventh. I hope he gets a fez now though.  EDIT: Or a stetson. | ||

When I started it and saw Amy, River and Tory with thoses marks I thouht it was the number of days they where on the run or something but it was really surprising. Still a bit confused on how Humans got hold of Black Dwarf Star material for the jail... I'm really curious whom supplied them with it, the Silence perhaps? I so much want to know about the ending in particular. It just kickes up insane theories in my head. There is also the issue that The Doctor forgot something that he and River have since with the kiss or is it simply due to the reverse timeline. I would think River would know that by now but I maybe not. I like how the story is continuing certain aspects from last season and I heard 1-2 ideas from Moffat episodes in series 4. | ||

To be honest I think the Doctor just doesn't realise yet that him and River are meeting in the wrong order. From what I understand from interviews we'll be finding out a lot about River this season though  Episode 3 trailer spoiler: + Show Spoiler + I liked how they hinted at the girl being Amy and the Doctor's doughter, although I think they probably have something else in store. I can't wait to see how this season turns out! | ||
