Bleh.

Well, that's not very nice. She looks ok.

Not a fan of the no-eyebrows/emo new Doctor.

Will watch to give him a chance but bleh.

It is one thing to have an open mind, everyone should.
It is another thing to open your mind and slap a "For Rent/Best Offer/First Come First Served" sign on it.

Just because it is a mystery to YOU doesn't make it unexplained.

After Christopher Eccleston left it got pretty silly, pretty fast. I hope the new Doctor Who is darker themed.

Uh-oh.

I will give the series a chance, but I doubt it'll be as good as it has been.

Point in case: half my family were in the same room when we found out who the eleventh Doctor would be, and we all said "who the **** is he?" laugh.gif

No offence to the poor girl, she's got biiiig shoes to fill, but she doesn't look much good. Still -- maybe she'll be amazing and fantabulous.... disgust.gif

I think with the Doctor this time around they are aiming for a more younger hip Doc instead of the visions we've had before until now. I will assume this is mostly due to the producers trying to tag a more general audience.

There is an audience for no-eyebrow/emo?

Hopefully they change the look.

There is as much as we want to deny it... I think he looks silly as well, but that's the in look with people under 25.

Chances are as well that he won't dress emo on the TV show either.

she has red hair maybe the are trying to capture the whole donna look.

They should have left it with David tenant and Catherine Tate but with Donna as the half doctor thing she was at the end of series 4 they just played off each other so well

I think that's aimed at my age group, tbh. laugh.gif

But I don't like it one little bit, personally.

*nods* Yeah, but I reckon they'll also lose at least some of their original audience. Me included, probably.

You know you won't give up on the good doctor and keep tuning in... I'm hoping they will do a good job.

The only 2 ways this will happen is if the show is picked up by Hollywood for a motion picture or if Craig goes broke and runs out of movie deals...
