Hello, Sweetie

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  1. I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme.
    Did you make this website yourself or did you
    hire someone to do it for you? Plz respond as I’m looking to
    create my own blog and would like to find out where u got this
    from. thanks a lot

  2. First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to
    ask if you do not mind. I was interested to find out how you center
    yourself and clear your head before writing. I have had a tough time clearing my mind in getting
    my ideas out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like
    the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or
    tips? Kudos! http://www.heart-hotel.com/comment/html/?47947.html
