I've tried using the wikipedia page to try and help, but there are so many on there, and so few in Netflix...
|
Yeah, exactly. It's like totally random why they're on there. I get the feeling that most of them could stand mostly on their own, though. But... for now, until it's cleared up, I can live with 11 and beyond. Or, 9 and beyond, really.
|
Though out of the ones on there, I'm most interested in those that have multiple variations of the Doctor meeting each other.
|
That does sound interesting. I happened to just watch right now "The Next Doctor"... which I think was a Christmas special, but it's just in order in the seasons... well I watched half of it right now. But I've seen it before. You *think* it is the next Doctor, but it really isn't...
|
It's my sonic screwdriver!
Why's it sonic? *hits against wood twice* See? Sonic! |
Yeah. Some of Ten's faces in that episode... he is a great Doctor, but I don't hate Matt Smith like some people do. For all his youth, he strikes me as unimaginably old.
|
Plus he does some of the craziest things.
But most of my problems with the 11th Doctor has less to do with the Doctor, and more to do with some of the things that happen in the episodes. Like when they meet up with River and the Church and had to fight against the Weeping Angels. |
Yeah, that whole thing, while fascinating, was a bit tiresome... and I mean, the whole plot is great, interesting, humorous, all that, but sometimes it gets to be a bit much, like, just resolve this already and give us the Doctor in all his madness.
|
Yeah. My biggest problem was that they had the Weeping Angels move onscreen. I wanna yell at the writers of that episode for that alone. It completely ruins the frightningness of them. If they freeze even when the audience can see them... then even we cannot blink.
|
Yeah, but it set up for the terror in Amy's mind. I mean, it's all relative, and some of the reality gets broken or distorted from time to time... Me, I liked The Doctor's Wife, so I went and read a book by Neil Gaiman... called American Gods.
|
How did you get from one to the other?

Neil Gaiman wrote the episode "The Doctor's Wife", in which the spirit of the TARDIS entered the body of a woman called Idris.
|
I didn't know that.
But Neil was already in my top 3 authors anyways. Haven't read American Gods yet, but it's one of the few things of his I haven't read. |
It's the only thing of his I have read because once I got my Kobo reader, a whole queue of books I want to read suddenly opened up, and I've been trying to keep up. Presently I've been reading a paper-and-ink book I received as a birthday gift. However, once I finish this I may just read some more of Gaiman's writing.
|
You should search for The Sandman It's among Gaiman's best works. It's a graphic novel about the personification of Dream. It's very strange, but very good.
Another would be Neverwhere, which involves a magical underworld of sorts in london. |
Yes, in looking up his name I have discovered what all he has created. I think he likes personifying ideas and thoughts... the same concept is present in American Gods. Which is very strange but, I think, not all that strange relative to his other works, from what I gather.
