The hassle of keeping this quiet until zero-hour... bribes of as much as 8 pounds were offered for the VT... ;)

Matt Smith
Folks outside the UK will probably have no idea who he is (for that matter, most Brits are probably thinking "er.. who again?").
Oh yeah, that "Picture not available" guy. I know him. Seen him loads of times.
Seems like the Doctor just gets younger and younger
I have no idea what y'all are talking about. someone fill me in.
I think they're talking about the new season of "Dr. Who". "Y'all"...Haha. That's cute.
And uglier too.Quote:

Living in Florida for 18 years, I still can't get up the gumption to say "y'all". I do say "You all" now, so that's not too bad. Better than when I used to say "You guys" all the time when I first moved down here from NY. Saying "you guys" instead of "you all" didn't fly down here.Quote:

Christ Almighty, casting couch much?
He looks evil! But, uh, not the cute kind of evil. Yuck.
Mr. Davies' taste in men is showing again.
wtf?
Well he himself is excited about it. I read somewhere that when he found out that he got the part he paced around his room for 3 days and didn't sleep. It sort've gave me the impression he still lives with his folks. Do they know he's clearly on meth?
Looks like the Doctor misses out on being a redhead again xD
I think Mr Moffat had more of a say in things this time round. Remember it's supposed to appeal to a teen audience; I guess they thought that means a cast of people their age. There's the whole companion thing to consider too - in early Who "sexual tension" wasn't even a consideration, so you could have a nubile mini-skirted girl dragged off by a bonkers gray-haired old duffer offering her jelly babies with the chat-up line "Come, my dear. It's bigger on the inside", and nobody batted an eyelid. You do know the Tardis only has one bedroom ;)Quote:

Same for a female doctor - lots of awkward cougar-type issues; best not go there and leave the lesbian orgies to Torchwood.
all i got out of this is voltaire must sound really cute and something about lesbian orgies.
i'm just kind of in an out right now....

but then i didn't like Ectoplasm (Eccelston) and it took Tennent nearly a three full episodes to win me over. my doctor is still Baker (7) and always will be.

he is by what i hear an abysmal actor too.
I should be the next Doctor. The bastards.
No! Me. I should. ^_^Quote:

I'm ambivalent. I loved the old doctor- he was quirky and cute...the new doctor- while he is very attractive- has no 'quirkiness' about him that the original character entailed. I'm worried he won't have anything going but the 'hot factor' and totally miss the mark of the original series intention in the character. Needless to say...I'll watch a few episodes and make my judgment. I hate change..if it ain't broke...I say...don't fix it.
i'm adopting a wait-and-see approach
