Like most good things in life, I stumbled upon Doctor Who quite by accident. 'Twas last summer, and I was scrolling through Netflix, looking for something new to watch. I saw the title Doctor Who and remembered that Bleah had mentioned this show on her blog a few times before. So I clicked 'play' and embarked on an exciting, confusing, and totally rad journey.

| best. intro. ever. |

| he's so cute when he's being smart ;) |

| great slogan |
I don't have the time/brains to really explain Doctor Who to y'all....but I'll introduce you to it.
Basically, the show is about the Doctor, a Time Lord {special type of alien} who is 900+ years old. He travels through time and space in his machine, called the TARDIS. He picks up various companions over the years, for he does get lonely.
 |
| Ten had my heart after this moment *giggle* |
 |
| Eleven makes bowties cool. |
 |
| I love this (: |
I suppose those of you who haven't watched the show before are wondering why there are different Doctors. Well.....they're all the same guy, just different faces. See, every time the Doctor is near death, he just regenerates in to an entirely new body. He's the same person, just new personality and looks. Ever Whovian has their favorite Doctor. Mine is Nine, for he was my first Doctor and is just plain awesome :)
 |
| Nine fell in love with Rose first, but Ten officially won her heart. And that is why I will go down with this ship *laughs* |
 |
| I believe Martha {my least favorite companion} said this. |
 |
| he's so cute when he's defending ancient Pompeii with a water gun. |
I still cannot decide why I love this show so much! I'm not a huge science fiction fan, yet this show is all about physics and various big words. I've never been into aliens, yet the Doctor is one himself. I usually prefer shows that make sense, while Doctor Who makes my head hurt sometimes. *shrugs* I guess good stuff doesn't always need an explanation.
 |
| Eleven is so quirky |
 |
| still saving up for my own sonic screwdriver :D :D |
 |
| pretty much me right now ;) |
I do not always agree with the morals of the show, and there is always the possibility of characters dying. But compared to most television shows, Doctor Who is tame and clean. Which is great for me. I've enjoyed watching it with Owen, even if Aiden does think the show is/we are crazy.
 |
| they're all so wonderful! |
 |
| this is why I love Nine so much. |
 |
| his voice is so funky |
 |
| teehee....get it? |

And there ya have it! Your very own introduction to Doctor Who. I would highly suggest watching it, especially if you're interested in British accents, British actors, British humor....basically British anything. The show has science stuff, history stuff, comedy stuff, smart stuff, even book and movie stuff! Stuff for every person around....and that is why Doctor Who is such a wonderful show.
your Nine lovin', Ten/Rose and Rory/Amy shippin, Eleven adorin', frustrated-cause-it-doesn't-come-back-till-next-fall blogger,

I wanna seeee thiiiissss!!!
doctor who is my life. every time i watch it i get this really prominent british accent, which is legit. 10 and 11 are my favorites. i haven't really been around long enough to see 9 in action. as far as david tennant is concerned, he and donna were the best. as far as matt smith is concerned, bowties are truly, truly, very cool.
i'm off to sleep now. great post :))

I grew up watching the old series (green spray painted bubble wrap monsters for the win!) ;) and was absolutely so mad when I found out they were making a series. My mistake. As soon as I started watching it, I fell in love..XD Best.Show.Evar. Every single time the Doctor is about to regenerate, I cry cuz I know imma miss the old one..but then I end up loving the new one too :) I still can't get over how amazing this post is, and how many amazing pictures you got :') I love the Doctor. :') and yeah, Martha is not my favorite..She didn't have enough personality! (what I throught personally ) :) GREAT POST!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! :D I should end this commeny...its getting a 'lil long x)

I LOVE Dr. Who!!! My mum has watched it ever since she was a little girl- she's British. She introduced my family to it and now we are all HOOKED. We all cried when Christopher Eckelston left, and then again when David Tennent left, and now we are trying to get used to Matt Smith. I miss Donna and Martha and Rose!!!! SO SAD!!! But I LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr. Who.
