I bought a sonic screwdriver last night.

When I was in 6th grade I walked to a gas station near our house (about a mile off) and bought a tire-pressure gauge because I could pretend it was a sonic screwdriver.
I feel like... a Star Wars fan getting their first lightsaber.

Loved this episode! Gatiss was great as the villian, and I love how The Doctor was written using his mind instead of the fucking screwdriver. Quite possibly, the best episode this season. And, the trailer for the remaining episodes looks fucking brilliant...

See, I wasn't a huge fan. It was alright (I find increasingly that I can find something to like in almost all of David Tennant's stories), and Gatiss was pretty good, but Martha's mum was deeply irritating, and the monster itself wasn't that great.
And, on a slightly different subject, I've found that english tastes and american tastes re: the new run are very divergent, by and large. Americans (by which I mean most of the guys on this site) prefer Eccleston's run and the less whimsical end of Tennant's stuff, whilst The English fans (on the whole, obviously there are quite a few exceptions) prefer Tennant's run, particularly the light-hearted stuff, or just generally love the show.
OOK OOK ACK EEK!

Absolutely. Totally agree. In fact, I think I said something similiar to this a few pages back. For some reason (various ones, actually, that I just don't feel like analyzing right now) American viewers understand/identify with Eccleston's leather-clad, scarred survivor. Whereas, Tennant's whimsical "Perfect Ten" of Doctor's seems to lure in the UK mindset.
Can't wait to see what the eleventh one is like...

The Lazarus episode was good. The promo for the next episode looks better. Can't wait to see what develops this season.
Gotta say I've enjoyed both of the new Doctors. Tennant has done a good job after Eccleston's first season. I'm still thrilled seeing a series that I enjoyed as a kid come back better than ever.
Fair play!

Just ordered series 2 on DVD.
Had pre-ordered the Amazon limited edition last year, but I cancelled it mere days before its release date as I knew I'd pick it up cheaper later.
Instead of paying the original £80 price tag, I've just paid £40.
The Amazon version actually has a special case and a few freebies inside.

Ya know what, I really should take more interest in this programme being British, but I still find out stuff about Who all the time, but its prolly stuff Whophiles already know. Cant believe it took me this long to work out Torchwood is an anagram of Doctor Who!

Actually, the teaser was for the rest of the season, since it took a very small break (like a week, or something).
And yeah, it is awesome to see Doctor Who back. In away the best thing is watching kids today take to it like I did back in the day.

Apparently it was the BBC shipping people who thought it up. They'd mark the tapes as Torchwood when shipping them from Cardiff to London to prevent them from being copied and leaked before the show aired.

Torchwood, the show, was pretty....gay. Jack's character is just neutered all the way through, the plots are silly, and the sexual-everything is completely forced. I gave Season One a solid "F"...

Working my way through "series 2" and the more Tennant episodes I watch, the less I understand how people can say he is trying to copy Eccleston, or any other Doctor for that matter.
Also, I see him as more charasmatic than Eccleston, and a more enigmatic character with how seemlessly he seems to shift from being lighthearted and comical, to dark and ruthless!

Totally. Who said he acted like Eccleston? I don't see it. If anything, Tennant channels a balanced mix of Peter Davison (5th), Tom Baker (4th), and a hint of Paul McGann (8th)...
