re: Doctor Who Season 8 Premieres this Saturday

around the time of the 50th anniversary (Nov 23, 2013) my gf agreed that the first episode I showed her (the first 10th Doctor episode) was pretty good and we should keep going. I was very excited and told her we need to get her caught up before the 12th Doctor gets here. Through starts and stops I can happily say that last night we watched The Name of The Doctor, The Day of The Doctor, and The Time of The Doctor. A gutbusting 1-2-3 punch I've been looking forward to since christmas. And with 3 days to spare!

Getting my own personal Who celebration out of the way...ha. I'm still a 10 guy, though 11 grew on me and 9 is ok in my book. I've watched a handful of classic Who, but not enough to say I deserve an opinion on it. My favorite episodes are Human Nature/The Family of Blood. Really got to me how the Doctor learned his true separation from humanity by becoming one and having to turn back again. Very emotional ending. And I've said it before, and not afraid to admit: I cried like a baby when Ten regenerated, that whole last 15 minutes or so...whew...of course, it was probably helped by the red wine... Very frickity much looking forward to Doctor Malcolm Tucker too!
