Old, really old or very old? The "old dude" could apply to a
few Doctors! If from the new series only, then you mean Peter
Capaldi.

Yes! Him.

Capaldi was okay. His Doctor had some Jon Pertwee vibes going on
so I liked him...

Apart from the awful one, there was no other doctor in the new series.

I'm excluding the current one now, I don't have him on any list yet. He
needs some actual Doctor scripts, not whatever they've been doing so
far. I want to like him, but they have yet to give him something
brilliant to do, with all the hectic problem solving while babbling
stuff only a Time Lord understands (possibly).

Did he run from anything yet?

I wasn't the biggest fan of his main companion
mind you (Clara) but Doctor Who companions in the modern era
tend to be written to make it all about them and their lives. So
I tend to prefer it when the focus is on the Doctor.

Don't mention Clara. She turned out like the proverbial visitors and
fish.

I don't feel that way about any other companion of the new series. There
wasn't that much about the others' lives, nor did they hog the stage so
much.

[Welcome back btw]

Thanks. I again wasn't gone though, just occasionally forget
to check for new posts, and also when I get some, rarely see
any I even want to look at.

Hopefully that will change when the new season returns in April.

You think religious nutters will stop posting, or everyone else will at

Oh, and from classic, white haired impressive guy, man I
forgot his name too.

Impressive? That has to be Jon Pertwee!!!

Yes! Him.

I never doubted it. The term "impressive" can only apply to one
Doctor!

I knew you'd recognize him. :) (And that he's your favorite classic,
too.)

I like it all, except the seasons with the awful one.

Looking forward to the new season!

Most of us are.

You wouldn't think it though would yer?

Why not?

The excitement level here doesn't seem to have gone much above
zero!  :-)

How can you get excited, or even find it, among all the noise? :P

It is easy to ignore people here. I do it all the time. I have only been
around since just before xmas yet the people I see complaining about
noise are not what I would call regular contributors to this group.
usenet will never be made just for you and what you like. usenet is a
decentralised open discussion forum. You can choose to join in on a
thread or ignore it. If you dislike something, try and change from
within rather than just sit and complain. Which means, if you don't want
"noise" talk about dr who then. Drown the so called noise out. dr who
has been around sixty years there must be plenty to talk about. If you
make the discussion about noise then you are only adding to the noise.
That's my two cents' worth anyhow. Next month there will be new dr who
stories to discuss. Here's hoping for some good dr who and the right
sort of noise to go with it.
