Sent via PM. Enjoy:D

As it turns out, youtube is pulling any and all postings until after the 17th per their agreement with BBC. I'll keep an eye out for other means...

I hope this doesnt mean future episodes too!

LOL not when in person! (I'll be seeing him for a staff meeting in about twelve hours)

Meanwhile, my crazy inner cosplayer is having a big debate: Nyssa costume or Amy Pond costume? So far Nyssa is winning, despite the abundance of velvet.

I'm sure it does. I'll post the link to the agreement when I get home. That is after I watch it tonight after work. I'll let you guys (and gals) post the first spoiler tags.

FYI: my plane lands @ 17:35 your time 5/13 so I'm going to try and make the meet and greet. Anyone else going?

I just might take you up on the offer...Any of the classics?

The real question should be "How'd you get the Hyatt Board Room around your office?"

[S1NN3R]

Have you seen this weeks ep yet? Kinda brought me back to the older era... I liked it

[LADY SAKURA]

Haven't caught up to the new season yet - but had to share these:

Dalek easter egg: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pugno_muliebr...57623645903881/

The "barely past pilot" K-9 spinoff: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKm3QzQsUiQ...player_embedded

My Thoughts:

The New Doctor- He's not bad. He's David Tennant with a new face, not that different, but he can grow. He's still far from a bad Doctor

The New Tardis- LOVE IT. Simply put.

The New Theme- Kinda like the last theme better. Still, working a bit better than the seventies version

The Companian- Hate her. Already, she's just a girl with a crush. Her level of Competence is based on what the story needs. I'm not seeing any personality here at all.

The writing- Pretty top notch, actually. Sure, Episode 2 was a ripoff of Star Trek's Encounter at Farpoint. But Farpoint was a terrible episode, and this was great. Both episodes so far have been a blast, and I eagerly await the third.

GO GO DALEK RANGERS


ps: The thing Amy said sets up for a lot of stuff D:

[jsieczkar]

I'm really looking forward to tonights episode (BBC One ep) and the return of Alex Kingston I am really interested to see where that arc is going. I think this will be the first real episode where I will come up with how I feel about Matt Smith's Doctor. So far he is reminding me of a cross between how William Hartnell and Patrick Troughton's doctors in that he is less emotional, seemingly a bit more distant and a dryer sense of humor then Christopher Eccleston or David Tennant.

As for Amy she seems to have some interesting story lines being written for her, but as of now her character is kinda well boring. Karen Gillan narrowly beats out Freema Agyeman as the best looking companion, but she is not as good as an actress. I will be hard pressed to change my favorite pairing from 10th doctor and Donna I know I'm odd. I just found that both Catherine Tate and David Tennant had a very simmer emotional range that they could portray, that and I got tired of the romantic interest side of the companion.

I had never seen Blink before, so we watched that right before watching the new episode. *resumes cowering in a corner* I'm never going to be able to look at statues the same way again!

New from the Exterminate line. There are many combos to choose from. You can match a dalek to any decor you may have! Only six easy payments of $19.95

As of today, I haven't seen the latest episode yet

[jsieczkar]

The first part of the two parter was ok, but the first parts are routinely set up episodes for the second part. I do hope that River Song is a permanent companion eventually with Alex still playing her. I love the very different relationship power balance between the doctor and her, it is something that has never been done before.

For those that have seen the old serials what format do you like the best?
The original where a serial was 4 to 7 parts long
The 70 and 80's format with 4 parts with a few part serials
or the present with a few 2 part serials but mostly stand alone episodes

[TaiyakiOni]

Yay more Doctor Who~

I was worried about a new Doctor but my fears have been put to rest. A fresh new Doctor that seems to be more of an odd ball than the last.

I am actually fairly happy with their decision to make a Dalek episode so soon in the beginning of the season.

All I gotta say about DR WHO is it's: SMOOCHIE TIME! If you don't get that, you will.

[Alkaren Hyralt]

I have a feeling Amy won't last past a season, nor will River Song

[magishine]

What's with the revolving door of companions? Can't we get one that last more then a season

I know it's a little bit annoying, but it sort of makes sense after Rose. I watch those specials they air and they said that after the Doctor lost Rose, and with his whole angst about destroying his society and whatnot, he was pretty much afraid of getting close to people cause he just ends up hurting them. In a way it makes sense.

I think now that the Doctor has changed, this new companion should stay for a while, unless the whole wedding thing gets in the way, but that never stopped Rose when she was dating Mickey.

Alex Kingston was only contracted for two episodes this season but Russell Davies and Steven Moffat have both said that she is an important future character so I am guessing that she will be back again next season. As for Amy she has been confirmed for Series 6 along with Matt Smith. It also came out that fellow Brit Neil Gaiman will be writing an episode for 2011.

The average span for a companion is in general only two years, Sarah Jane Smith holds the record at 4 and a couple episodes.

[Kaay-chan]

I like Amy. I hope she stays. I like that she's known him since she was a little girl, it adds an interesting dynamic to their relationship.

I like that as well. Plus, she's super cute. It is kind of weird that the actress was in an episode as a different character in a previous episode, but not really a big deal.

Though, what is up with the Doctor not being able to control his time jumps at all this season. First in the 1st episode, then he shows up months later than the call he got from Churchill in the last dalek episode.

[*McManray*]

After Flesh & Stone, I was just shocked. While i had generally enjoyed this season, i was getting fairly annoyed with these cracks in time conveniently showing up every episode in plain sight so I loved the way the Doctor finally confronted one. Now that this "pandorica" has been mentioned I am thrilled to see what happens next. Looks as if it's time for some ridiculously fun fan speculation for the remainder of the series!

The Doctor has never been the best driver, he's really good at getting lost but it does seem that Eleven is much worse with accuracy than his predecessors


River Song will be back, I mean, she keeps dropping a boatload of hints about all this stuff she did. I bet she's the full time companion at some point.

And yes, Neil Gaiman already wrote an episode. It was gonna be this season but due to budget constraints it got pushed back to early next season and he just said in his blog that the rewrite necessitated by that move is already turned in to Moff's team I can't WAIT!

From the talk here, it has to do with the crack. Who can control what's no longer there?

[Kaay-chan]

My roommate mentioned that originally the Doctor couldn't control the TARDIS at all, so for me the fact that he has some trouble with accuracy now doesn't seem like that big of a deal.

And am I the only one who gets the feeling that the person that River killed was the Doctor, or am I just being paranoid? >.>;;;
