For me, series 4 and its two finales (The stolen planet 'trilogy' and the End of Time) is in my humble opinion the best the show's ever been. Granted, you can't start there and get anything, since it's all a collection of all that has lead up to it, and series 5 is pretty much a reboot, but I'd take Eccleston and Tennant any day over Smith.

Still not saying I don't like Smith, I just don't like his interpretation of the Doctor.

*Moffat knows very well how to write two-parters. (Empty Child/Doctor Dances), but I don't think he manages to pull off seasons at all. Season 6 was horrific. The whole death-of-the-doctor was a piece of shite.
*I prefer Tennant, you don't. Leaving it at that.
*River Song is annoying as hell, and it doesn't help that I don't even like Alex Kingston.
*I get the Rose hatred. I do, and my favorite companion is Amy. But Rose had a great story arch, and a superb payoff.

And as for Rickey the idiot and Jackie Tyler, sure, I'd like to see them in a special again at some point, but then you'd have to include Jack, Donna(in a way, obviously), Martha, The Master, Jenna, and Daddy Pete. I don't see that happening, or any reason to do so, so let's just hope they don't.

Hey - I said I tolerated here. Only it was just barely.

I preffer the Doctor's companions Spunky. I don't find rose Spunky.

She sorts in the "kinda thick" category, with Donna.

Seven years on and that still isn't making any damn sense!

Holy shit. This episode was freaking AWESOME.

I really dig Clara's arc so far, more than series 5's arc and certainly more than series 6's (which... no). This second half of series 7 is doing really good.

(and I'm in love with Jenna-Louise Coleman)

Yeah, no, it doesn't...
Still one of my favorite scenes between her and the Doctor though.

I feel like I'm the only person amongst my real life and internet friends that doesn't like Doctor Who. I don't hate it, but I just can't get into it. What do I do, FIYH?

Meh. I'm actually surprised sometimes at how much I like it in spite of the frequent silliness and slapdash plotting. When I look back on Star Trek, it seems preachy and self-righteous by comparison.

But even die-hard Whovians hang their heads when a touching exploration of the madness of Van Gogh is embellished with a giant space chicken.

You could start a club. Mine shows The Road to Eldorado, Sucker Punch, Bad Taste, Pan's Labyrinth, and Death Proof. On repeat. To an audience of one.

For those who have been watching the Doctor Who Revisited, it’s been announced that the edition for the 5th Doctor will be out May 26th.  The story that’ll be done for it will be “Earthshock”.  Thoughts about that choice of story?

You're not alone. I don't love it but its not really my favorite thing. I enjoyed the 9th Doctor and most of Tennant's run but haven't really been comfortable with Smith and have just kind of let it fall off for the most part.

I still have friends, online and otherwise, who love DW and watch it frequently. I feel like an outsider looking in but I have my own interests too. Just part of growing up
