O....M.....G and... HAPPY EASTER!!
After six hours of waiting, I finally got my hands on the Series 5 premiere of Doctor Who and was I impressed!! Matt was amazing! Truthfully, I had my reservations on him being The Doctor. Following up David Tennant is a hard feat, but Matt did very well!
One of my favorite bits was the food spitting and tossing! I can never look at fish sticks and custard the same way!
"Can I have an Apple?" "Do I have a face no one listens to?" and "The Doctor will see you now!" "Nurse boy, gimme the phone!" "Not him, the good-looking one!" Some of my favourite lines!
Karen Gillan was feisty and has the makings for a great companion. I loved how she chewed him out for not only not coming back on time (5 minutes= 12 years ), but for coming back two years after the Prisoner Zero incident! I think Eleven needs better Time Management! LOL.
There were some classic Ten lines utters and it felt weird hearing Eleven utter them but again, he is still 'cooking', so there are bound to be some ramblings! Partrick Moore! HAHA! And the Doctor can open the TARDIS with a snap of his fingers! YEAH!!! The theme is something I have to get used to.. It's not as dark as I thought it would be. It reminds me when they went techno in the 80's. It is not bad, but it does takes some getting used to. The new opening, I like!! The touches of lightning are neat!!
Overall, I think it was a great start and sets the pace and tone for the rest of the series!
What do you think??
You took the words outa my mouth in regards to the theme song. It's very retro 80's, but the new time vortex and lightening was awesome! I also loved some of Tens lines... especially when 11 was starring at the crack in the wall and started talking about Wibbley Wobbley Timey Whimey... It made me hope that 10 was trying to escape back lol Either way great show and great run down. *two thumbs up*
