WARNING: DOCTOR WHO SPOILERS...[if you aren't caught up to the current season DO NOT READ...and don't spoil anything for me or so help me god...]
Enjoy. =]
So I have been felling really down today, and I was just sitting around, messing with my phone. I decided to change the backgrounds, and I scrolled through old pictures and me being the geek that I am, most of the pictures consist of Harry Potter and Doctor Who reference pictures. The Doctor Who ones made me incredibly sad. I have realized why I don't feel so stellar, I'm Who deprived. I haven't seen Who in a while. Granted I watched two of the new episodes while I was home for my mother's birthday, but seriously, that's not enough. I miss it. The Doctor is like a friend, and I haven't seen him in a really long time. I have enough people whom I miss in my life, and the Doctor should not be one of them. The current season is being recorded at my house thanks to my lovely mother. I can't wait til Thanksgiving when I can lock myself in the room with the big screen and watch all of them.
Also, I believe that part of my Who induced sadness is due to the change of the show. I started watching it with #9, [the 1st episode of the revived series- for those who don't speak Whovianese], and over the course of the two doctors I have fallen in love with the series...this is harder to explain than I originally thought it would be. To the Whovians reading this, I miss 10 and Rose, my heart aches without them on the show. To the Non-Whovians, I miss the 10th Doctor and his first companion. They loved each other so honestly that the fact that neither of them are on the show kills me. The Doctor character stays the same, it's just a different actor each time he 'regenerates' instead of dieing...long story.-#10 was played by the wonderful, beautiful, sexy, David Tennent. Whom I love very dearly, and his companion was Rose, who was played by Billie Piper, also love her. I miss her, just as much as I miss 10. [Doomsday was the saddest episode of any show I've seen-after Lost...and only a few of those episodes can compare (and there were plenty of heart-shattering episodes)] And after Tennant was off the show it was never the same.
Don't get me wrong, the show is still amazing, and I love Matt Smith as 11, but the whole plot, story, feel,of the show has changed. Partly due to the new head writer of the show, and partly due to the fact that this is the first season that has cut itself off from the past ones, it NEVER mentions anyone from the past seasons, and it's almost like it's a show of it's own, when it was the build up to now that made it what it is...I miss the old feel of it.
The beginning was about the adventure, and the Doctor's relationship/need for the companion at the time...who each gave him something different...and now it is about the marriage of the two companions who are with 11, and his relationship with the most annoying fucking character in the history of Who, his 'wife' or so she claims to be, who I believe he doesn't actually love, while she forces herself onto him...again making me miss Rose. 11 doesn't seem interested in this woman, and he becomes the background character to the married companions...who [due to spoilers-thanks a lot -_-] I know are leaving soon...which yes, I do think will be sad, but it's time. Which is the first time I've ever said that...[besides Martha, I hated Martha.] The other companions, I felt had very sad departures [besides Martha, I hated Martha.], I feel like the writers have played out theses companions way to far...too much relationship drama, that the Doctor ultimately fixes at the end of every problematic episode...[SMH], this is not couples therapy, there are plenty of other people who could bring something to the Doctor, and who would LOVE to travel with him...[me].
So honestly, time to move on, but if the new companion is anything like Martha, or what the 'leaks' are saying she is like, I will be massively pissed. I also think it is HIGH TIME the fucking Doctor says something about any of his old companions [besides Martha, I hated Martha] damnit, they created the way you look at things, at least mention them...[yes I know- some of you are yelling at me because we did have a (tiny) glimpse of Rose in 'Let's kill Hitler'...I want more.][And others are getting pissed at me because they hated the way 10 always mentioned Rose-but he loved her, bite me]
And Ducks, there are so many on campus, and the way the play with each other, run across the sidewalk, try to beat you to the spot you are walking to, and the way you can hear them all the way across camps makes me incredibly happy, and I'm not entirely sure why. That is all.
Allons-y
