Random Thoughts - Doctor Who & Torchwood

[rosy5000]

I finally finished watching all 3 seasons of Doctor Who, just need to see the Christmas special before the new season starts.

Just a few random thoughts...

- Surprisingly, I liked 9 over 10 as the Doctor.  10 is more attractive (which I'm truthful and usually go for), but 9 came across more fun and relaxed.

- For both Doctor Who and Torchwood... after being subjected to so much inconsistency and destroying of canon by Smallville, it was so nice to watch a couple shows that stay so consistent that they even bring back characters (and actors) from the original run of Doctor Who decades ago.  That impressed me so much.

- Even though it may take you a few extra episodes or even through a few seasons, recurring characters or names that make you go 'hmmm' are eventually explained.

- "Blink" from Doctor Who is easily the scariest tv show episode I ever watched. *shudders*

Finally...

- Captain Jack Harkness is the Face of Boe?!?!?!?  That certainly explains so much about the Face of Boe knowing the Doctor and also knowing he wasn't alone.  That little comment by Jack just about made me squeal like a little girl.

Looking forward to keeping up with the new season of Doctor Who now. :D

I just started watching TW right before the second season started. I could understand everything with TW from the beginning without seeing any of Doctor Who, but after watching Doctor Who, I did realized there were things mentioned in TW that made more sense.

I don't know if full eps are available on youtube or not, but if you're interested on how to see the rest of the series, e-mail me privately at rosalynd5000 at yahoo . com. :)
