Doctor Who - Discussion Thread II

If the girl replacing Karen Gillan refuses to wear sexy attire then I'm not sure whether this programme, if it continues with the current Moffat nonsense, will hold any sort of joy for me to watch.

Matt Smith has been a great Doctor let down by terrible scripts, writing and story lines.

Karen Gillan has just been a joy to look at.

Without those two then Moffat would have been getting torn to shreds, I hope he gets control of himself and gives a decent send off to Karen and finally a decent story to Matt. I was also hoping that any River storyline would die and never return but there she is, pissing about in the trailer annoying my eyes and boring the life out of me.

Its still a good programme and Series 5 was the best series by far but Series 6 was very disappointing,with the storyline getting clogged down by unnecessary series arcs around river and a lot of unanswered questions from Series 5,not properly resolved-Moffat keeps creating millions of questions and taking years to answer them or forgetting about them,which isn't a good idea and he';s making all the monsters,bar the silence kind and innocent in some shape or form.

Monsters don't have to be evil. It's all a matter of perspective.

Let's not get back into this again

So it starts the day after I go abroad on Holiday

But at least I can have a mini-Who Marathon when I get home

It isn't as good,when the enemies turn out to be nice and you start to have empathy for them-the show should be about aliens,who want to take over earth and destroy everyone and be really evil and have no real moral reason for their attitudes or no excuses as to why they don't care about humans dying.

I completly disagree. Humans arn't totally good or evil so it is stupid to think aliens would be. Some of the best villians e.g. the master and the silurians have multiple levels that make them interesting. Having every alien wanting to take over earth also makes no sense; why bother and wouldn't 13 episodes of attempted earth takeovers get dull? Villians you empathise with are the best as although you don't agree with them you understand them.
