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 don’t know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else
    encountering issues with your site. It seems like some of the written text on your
    content are running off the screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me know if this
    is happening to them as well? This may be
    a problem with my internet browser because I’ve had this
    happen before. Cheers

  2. Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?

    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing
    a few months of hard work due to no data backup. Do you have any solutions to protect against hackers?

  9. Can I just say what a comfort to uncover somebody that really knows
    what they’re discussing on the net. You actually understand how to
    bring an issue to light and make it important. A lot more
    people really need to read this and understand this side of your story.
    It’s surprising you are not more popular because you definitely
    have the gift.

    I’m hoping to start my own site soon but I’m a little lost
    on everything. Would you advise starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a
    paid option? There are so many choices out there that I’m totally confused ..
