usernamenumberAnd the new doctor is... here
Ok, first off, I admit that I'm kind of excited despite myself. I was really, really hoping that the show with Moffat in charge would have the guts to do something unexpected, like, Idunno, have the doctor not be young, hip and pretty. Instead we have a 26 year-old who looks like the lovechild of Robert Smith and Morrissey. I am not allowed to be older than the guy playing The Doctor. Srsly.
That said, I do like the guy. I would have been happier with him if he didn't mean following three years of a younger, hipper, wackier version of Eccleston with what looks like to be an even younger, even hipper, even wackier version of Tennant (though I do hope he keeps the hair), but something about his personality makes me at least curious and... cautiously optimistic?
Here's hoping.
