Doctor who fans (?) (2 Viewers)

[Soleski]

Recently I saw some comments about Doctor Who, so I am curious how many fans we have here in kps.

Since some will (hopefully) visit this thread, a few questions.

Favorite Doctor?

Favorite companion?

My answers:
Tenth Doctor! David Tennant is a living legend.
Amy and Rory.

I do like the series and I've watched a few but I don't follow it very much. But David Tennant was definitely the best doctor! I loved him so much. My favourite companion is probably Donna although I did like Amy and Rory a lot.

I liked Donna too, she was really funny. The cutest best friend. I loved her relationship with the Doctor. (Her end was really sad tho)

Tenth doctor and Donna was rhe best, though Martha was also really good.

I loved David Tennant's doctor, but my favorite companion would have to be Donna! I just like her sass ig! Rose would be my 2nd favorite!

And my award for the worst doctor goes respectably to the horrible performance of Jodie Whittaker

Uhh she is that bad? tbh I heard so much bad about the acting and storyline that I didnt dare to start it.

Both were horrible... Imagine a plot written by social justice warriors and then them trying to cram as much of all that as possible down your throat with pointless dialogue.

Combined with the utterly dry acting from Jodie that lacked any unique aspects... It was bad...it was like she was trying to act like the doctor... While all the others WERE the doctor she was trying to act like the doctor... Which came out all wrong and lifeless!

My family wacthed like 2 episodes fully... Hoping it would get better... Then the 3rd episode (I think) was even worse than the first 2 and we quit half way through and didn't finish the season!

well I cant blame you, this sounds horrible

It was... Like Doctor Who is supposed to be all about the action you know! That season they were trying to teach us some kind of a message. Like I said I only watched like 2 and a half episodes...

but in the 3rd episode they had 2 characters just sit down next to a dumpster for like 5 minutes and talk about how tough and horrible of a life black people have...

10 + Donna ftw!
Then 11 + Amy & Rory.
Then 9 + Rose & Captain Jack.
Then 12 + Bill.

In my opinion it's getting too much undeserved hate. I think Jodie is great and I love her dynamic with Graham (while other companions could get better), but writing is a hit or miss. If there's someone to blame, that would be the showrunner. He's not terrible, but is obviously weaker than Davies and Moffat. I do suggest watching it thought, it has its brilliant moments.

The idea was to make it more similar to Classic Who, which usually had educational/historical episodes, and more talking than action.

It didn't work. Classic who might've been more talking than action, but it wasn't rubbing it into your face. It didn't have totally pointless scenes unrelated to the plot and most of all, it didn't treat the viewers as if they were imbecilles.

You watched 2 and a half episodes. But if they made you dislike it that much, I definitely don't suggest continuing.

I mean the reviews the rest of the episodes got tell me they only got worse... So wasn't planning much on it...

Eh, it mostly got review-bombed by a type of folks I don't respect much. Sadly it became a part of contemporary "culture wars" and other ugly stuff, just like Star Trek Disco did, and Cptn Marvel, and so on. So I only trust myself and my own review. Cause people are a bunch of bastards. My judgement is: it's on the same level as an average 12 + Clara episode.

do not like it , people made me watch it
don't get it
why it is so big

Oh man, I haven't watched anything past 12, but I am a HUGE fan (of the new series, haven't seen anything before 9). Fave Doctor will always be Tennant, fave companion is still Captain Jack Harkness. I've actually met Matt Smith and John Barrowman, and attended panels featuring Smith, Barrowman, and Capaldi.
