Doctor Who?...

Quote by chemkarate

Aw, I was worried about how the numbering worked. So, what I call Season 6 is the second Matt Smith season. I don't consider the set of specials that ended Tennat's run ("Planet of the Dead", "Waters of Mars", and "The End of Time") to be a separate season, because each were just long episodes.

So basically, I've seen all of the current Doctor Who. And yes, I loved the latest season. It was fantastic. I really liked how this season's finale took a departure from the last few, where it wasn't trying to pull at heartstrings. It was mostly a really funny romp, and I loved that. Matt Smith is at his best when the Doctor is just being goofy and weird.

The Wedding of River Song marked the end of Series 6. The specials don't really count as being a part of any series; they are events that happen between them. To prevent any future confusion (and because I'm pedantic), the word "series" in the UK is what is called a "season" in the US. (In case someone says, "No that happened in a different series.") Where "series" in the US represents the entire library of an individual title.

My favourite Doctor has and always will be Tom Baker, followed by Jon Pertwee Followed by Matt Smith followed by Chris Eccleston (Who, in my opinion, didn't really have enough time to gain the type of following the other actors have.) Tennant is actually one of my two least favourite Doctors, right behind Colin Baker. I actually prefer Davros to the two of them. :p

As promised boys, here is a picture of me in my Doctor costume. Unfortunately, the flash fucked things up. I promise that the jacket is way darker than it looks in here. Apparently tweed is rather reflective. Hopefully this weekend will result in a few better pictures. :P

12th Doctor!

Very nice! But you need the new Sonic Screwdriver. If you lived closer to Colorado, you could borrow mine.

Also: needs more fez! Or maybe a stetson. Stetsons are cool. :)

Oi! Don't diss the Sonic!

And that's one I'm borrowing from a friend. I figured it was better than using the app I found on the Android Market. :P

More pics! I normally wouldn't post more, but I was fortunate at a party last night to be in the presence of a fantastic photographer, was lent a coat that matched the 11th Doctor's even better than mine, and was also lent the right sonic screwdriver! Below are two pics that, quite frankly, I am over the moon about.


This is, BY FAR, my most favorite photo. SO BAD ASS! This is going to be my new profile pic. :D


The Doctor and Arwen. This is also the girl that lent me the right sonic!

Eric, I've never found you more attractive! Love the pics, keep them coming! I'm particularly impressed with the 11th Doctor eyebrows ;)

Does Matt Smith have eyebrows?

Perfect!

(Well, the bow tie is a bit gay. Of course, I mean that in a good way.)

You win my personal costume contest!

You win my personal costume contest!

Agreed! B)

Aw, thanks you guys! You're way too kind. I had so much fun in this costume. Definitely my best Halloween since I was Sarah Palin back in '08. :D

Love this - great costume. I agree though, it needed a fez ;)

Here's what I got up to, rocking the Buffy vampire look: http://www.stonewallfleet.com/network/photos/1070-arkim/album?albumid=1177 :D

Woah I think the Doctor got turned up a notch.

First shot of the new "desktop theme" for the Tardis. Like the metallic teal lighting and it seems inspired by the original Enterprise just a bit.

Cool look! Those stairwells in the back seem to imply another split-level design, which I like. One of the things I really appreciated about the Ponds' TARDIS was that it contained so many different spaces where scenes could happen. Episodes like the one with the Dream Lord just wouldn't have worked as well in one of the old cockpit-only interiors.

I'm a fan of the new console and control room as well. Not just for the way it looks, but for the fact that this signals the series is starting a new phase. AS much as I loved the last few seasons with the Ponds, I'm thrilled to be getting a new Companion and a (hopefully) new dynamic with the Doctor.

Gah! Can't wait for the Christmas special! Word is that it is REALLY good!

It'll be interesting to see where this show goes now. Apparently in the words of Moffat it's going to "Own 2013", I'm hoping for a very big build up to the 50 anniversary show :)

Probably have a little sex wee over it!!

Very interesting update. I wonder how they're gonna work it into the story line. The TOS/Enterprise feel is very there.
