Do you like Doctor Who?
-
Haven't watched Dr. Who much. Just few parts, but I did meet original Dr Who Tom Baker when he was signing autographs. Nice guy.
I like to think he's exactly like his narration on Little Britain. Now that we can get Jelly Babies in Canada sometimes I put them in paper bag and start randomly narrating events whilst offering strangers candy. Sure, one day it's going to get me arrested but then I won't have to pivot into my retirement plan.

I go on record as recognizing David Tennant's run as the Doctor as being the best. Donna Noble was the best companion, though Clara Oswald was amazing, too! It's nice to see some LGBT content coming into the show and dare I say that it may be time for a female Doctor Who - perhaps with a gay male companion. I would like to see a Doctor/companion dynamic that isn't a prolonged "will-they-won't-they" story line. Having them be very close, supportive mates (like the Doctor/Donna pairing) was just as, if not more, satisfying. But I suppose that's just a gay man talking and it wouldn't grab the ratings like the other formula.
PS - Glad to see Moffat go…the weeping angels were a super idea but became much too overused. I guess every show runner would be desperate to add his/her own brand of darlek/cyberman to the Doctor Who universe.
Well hopefully they bring back Doctor Who's daughter since a lot of people forgot about that storyline in the series.
If they haven't forgotten, maybe they will do that when Capaldi leaves since he said he will be leaving after this series.
As for previous Doctors I like Tennant the most until Matt Smith. Matt was my fav followed by tennant.
But if you watch the different doctors each has a different tone for the character, though I like the funniness and the seriousness of those two, not so much capaldi he seems to be still trying to get his footing for the character so to speak or thats what the directors want from him.

I also like Class and Torchwood

I love Dr Who and Torchwood.
I look forword to see the first female Doctor in the new Season -
I started watching with the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker). I also saw the Fifth and Sixth Doctors in the original runs.
My personal ranking of Doctors: Ninth, Fifth, Tenth, Fourth, Sixth, and Twelfth. I disliked Matt Smith intensely.
My favorites are all over the place: my favorite companion was Rory (though I hated Matt Smith) and my favorite episode was Midnight (with Doctor Ten showing why he REALLY needs a companion as a buffer between him and people).
I can't put my finger on why is don't like the episodes with Capaldi that much. He's a good actor and his companion is fascinating. It might just be that Moffat makes the show creepy in a bad way.
