    "Fantastic!" "Brilliant!" hide show

    My favourite show, along with Supernatural. Quite a contrast between the two I know but hey. This show can simply do anything; The Doctor as a charactor is quite possibly the most interesting and amazing charactor ever invented. And we've seen 10 different versions of him.
    On the whole, everyone has there favourite doctor, dubbed as "there" doctor. The latest and soon to leave, David Tennant, is my doctor. He just is the Doctor. Truley superb perfomances from him week in week out. But aside from the Doctor, this show produces some of the best villians ever seen. Daleks; even those who don't watch the show know who they are. The Master, a villanious alterego for the Doctor to fight. And of course the companions; ordinary people that find there lives changed so much just by the life of one man.
    It has a few dud episodes, but on the whole it is thrilling viewing and has very much deserved the success its had. No surprise it has spawned two spin off shows. It dosen't get much better than this.

    A brilliant show that keeps lasting forever and ever. hide show

    I'm not sure how to describe this show without breaking up my review. There has been so many seasons and so many doctors that it's hard to sum it all up into merely one review.

    I think what is so brilliant about this show is that it can last forever because the main characters can always change but essentially still be the same.

    The plot of the show was original back in the day and still is one of a kind. Nothing can quite compare to Doctor Who and it has aged brilliantly.

    I haven't seen all the older ones but I really enjoyed them as a child and the newer ones are just brilliant. I always love how everyone worries about the new 'Doctor' but the stories will always stay brilliant.

    I have to shamefully admit I am and always will be a huge Doctor Who fan.

    doctor who always the best hide show

    Doctor who the longest running scifi series in history and one of the longest of any show, is a destiment to how great it is to how perfect a show evry doctor brings something new, as does every companion (except Martha I hate her). it is almost always perfectly written whether it's an episode that makes you laugh, or think or cry they are all great evn the classic doctor who, which didn;t have modern effects and sometimes had poor sets was incredibly written with stories that keep you guessing. On the outside doctor who is just another sci fi adventure but on the inside it has heart. any show that can make you think and even raise modern issues while still letting you have a good timew has to be one of the best

    Dr Who one of the best and most adaptive shows ever created.While Dr Who 2005 can be stand alone great , it also feeds the old fans enough meat for us to thoroughly enjoy as well. hide show

    In the old series Dr Who often flowed with the times . the 1st Dr was in many historical eras while the 2nd opened up more to aliens . The 3rd Dr was a defender of the Earth and the 4th transcended nicely from planet defender to space traveler to universe defender.and so forth and so on . Thus the cannon of the old Dr was established . he was the anti-hero ,rebelling against authority to do what was right moral and just . The new series comes along and skillfully changes the entire dynamics . Where as companions were of minimal use and usually caused more problems in the classic episodes in the new series they are the key to many of his victories . Where as the Time Lords used to keep the Dr in check , the constraints are now off of him and he projects a sense of authority that he once rebelled against .
    bottom line is the newly renovated series is tied in nicely with the old series but in a fresh new way that makes this extremely fun and enjoyable to watch .
