He’s Mr. Cool

This week’s Doctor Who episode, “Amy’s Choice”, was one of my favorites so far. Although what we saw was a bit confusing (or rather, confused), the overall storyline gave us a chance to see deep into our Doctor’s mind. This Doctor is not quirky. He is not happy-go-lucky. He is not satisfied. What he is, is badly damaged. When the Ninth Doctor appeared, we got a good look at the guilt, regret, and loneliness. Ten all but hit us over the head with the constant reminders of the same. This is different. Eleven has internalized all of the trauma and seems to be trying to heal through continuing on. On paper, it seems cliche and boring. Eleven, however, gives haunting flinches and gazes that subtly remind us that all is not well.

This episode did two much needed things in a very simple way. It used “dreams” to allow us to wrap up the issue of Amy’s choice and to remind us that our Doctor is carrying his demons heavily. I’m enjoying the season possibly even more than Nine’s because I honestly do not know what to expect from The Doctor, and that is a very good feeling.

  1. Its such as you learn my mind! You seem to grasp a lot about this, such as you wrote the
    ebook in it or something. I think that you simply could do with some percent
    to force the message house a little bit, however instead of that, this is great blog.

    A fantastic read. I’ll definitely be back.

  2. With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation?
    My blog has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it
    up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help prevent
    content from being ripped off? I’d truly appreciate it.

  3. Hey there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work
    due to no back up. Do you have any methods to prevent
    hackers?
