Missing “Doctor Who”
Nerd post that’s probably only for my benefit ahead…read if you dare!
Kinda hit me today that I miss “Doctor Who”. That *entirely hypothetical* feeling of having the RSS Downloader of μTorrent grab the latest ep for me from cyberspace. The joy of seeing a brand new ep of “DW” *somehow appearing* on my computer and watching it. Yeah, I know, “Planet of the Dead” is arriving next month, around Easter if I recall correctly. Yay!
Also kind of realizing that I really like the Tenth Doctor. Surprising considering how much I just loved the Ninth Doctor. I then think about the previous Doctors…and the future one.
What will the Eleventh Doctor be like? He’s young…too young? Eh. Part of me hopes that they give him some of the bits I liked best about the Fifth and Eighth Doctor. Well, not the stupid cricket uniform of 5. But, the youthful exuberance they both had. And, thankfully, a longer run than the poor Eighth Doctor got. The few audio plays and comics I’ve read of 8 make me wish that Doctor got his shot on TV.
