New season of Dr. Who!
« on: September 19, 2015, 09:15:40 AM »
Kicks off tonight on BBC America at 9 p.m. Eastern!

I was really on the fence about Peter Capaldi last season, but the more I watched, the more he grew on me.


Even better, BBC America, starting at 9 a.m. Eastern tomorrow, is going to be showing the best of Tom Baker's run as Dr. Who.

That has been my feelings about many of the Doctors over the years.

I haven't had cable or true internet for several years now. In the next month or so I'll have cable again and will have to catch up with the series.

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

It's the dramatic eyebrows. :D  I'm glad Missy is going to be back.  Clara is cute but I don't like her character; she lies too easily.  I'm ready for her to leave.

BTW, it's "Doctor" not "Dr" because it's a name and not a title (I'll just correct you once, if you keep spelling it wrong I don't really care ;)

I'm still unsure about Capaldi, but I'm getting more optimistic.  I have heard rumours that Jenna-Louise Coleman is leaving after this years Christmas special, but I haven't seen any official conformation.

TBH Clara was is like third or forth on my list of companions of the new series.  Not as bad as Donna, but kinda eh.

I'm definitely watching tonight.

Saying Dr. is no different than saying Pete for someone named Peter.

My favorite companion is, hands down, Karen Gillan.

Didn't watch it last night... Recorded it.

Penn State kicked off at 8 p.m., and I wanted to see how they were going to do against Rutgers. They looked like some of the PSU teams of old -- solid defense and a humming offense that was running the ball pretty much at will.


And yes, Jenna Coleman will be leaving Doctor Who sometime this season. She's signed on to play the young Queen Victoria in a series on BBC. The only problem with that is that Jenna Coleman is smoking hot, and Queen Victoria was pretty damned ugly.

No doubt about it, it's her accent...

I just figured out the Missy character.  She's an evil Mary Poppins!  The costume is right.  Looks just like her too, except for the cheekbones.
