LAST EDITED ON Apr-27-10 AT 02:47 AM (EDT) >Being a rather big fan of the show, moreso of the production that >started in 2005, I have to ask, how caught up are you at this point, >and have you yet been introduced to the character of River Song? Almost completely, barring the last couple-three episodes of series 4 and the not-series-4-but-not-series-5-either stuff from last year. So yes, I have. Which was quite surprising. And here I was all that time thinking that Donna was the most annoying woman the Doctor would ever meet. :) --G. in the new series, anyway. I mean, there's always Romana Mk. 1 -><- Benjamin D.

>Nobody, nobody is more annoying than that bloody fishwife. Aw, she got better. Everybody's always pickin' on Donna. I mean, she'll probably never crack my top 5, but still, I do rather like her after, oh, say "Planet of the Ood". The idea of sending along a fully grown woman who doesn't Find The Doctor Compelling so much as she's just kind of blokey with him was a bold experiment, and I salute them for trying it. I enjoy the lack of extraneous awe. (Particularly after her predecessor. There was a lot of extraneous awe there. :) Mind you, had it been me attempting such a thing, I'd have offered Lis Sladen her old job back first, but don't go by me. By then she had her own show anyway. >River's just what happens when a middle-aged aunt gets hammered at a >Christmas party. She's so... smug. I just want to headbutt her, particularly in "The Time of Angels". It's like the Doctor has found himself periodically encountering a female version of his own sixth self. I'd run away too, and I wouldn't be inclined to let any towering Scotswoman talk me out of it. :) --G. (seriously, she's what, six feet tall? damn, yo.) -><- Benjamin D.

Also, if said Towering Scotswoman tried to talk me out of it, I think I'd be convinced. That voice, that body? Hard to say no to. Matrix Dragon, J. Random Nutter |

Okay, fully caught up now. I have to say, exceptional performances and generally astronomical standard of production values aside, I am now deeply, deeply tired of the whole "the Doctor's life is an obligatory vale of tears" thing. I understand the practical reasons for it - actors don't stay in jobs forever, people get older, etc., etc. - but, man, it gets old after you've been bludgeoned about the head and shoulders with it for a while. Part of it's my own fault for watching the whole busload over the course of a week or two, but still, I mean, damn, yo. Fortunately, I don't have to worry about actors getting sick of living in Cardiff. And hey! It's an easy repair compared to some I've had to tackle. Shouldn't take me more than another... I dunno, hour or two? :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.

>OK, now you've got me wondering if we'll be seeing any jokes, either >in-story, or more stuff in the Featured Documents forum, about the >100th Doctor. But there aren't a hundred Doctors. There have been, however, a hundred Professors... :) --G. -><- Benjamin D.
