@Libbathena Yeah, I actually did mean to type plotholes, but I did that comment kind of fast... Note the "is is" at the end, instead of "is it" :] I bet it can fix potholes, which would also be very useful!
@TheShaneLockwood yeah, but Amy was like, joking kind of. At least he isn't gay, and I don't remember someone thinking the doctor and Craig were gay? Was that in The Lodger? And if Moffat brings Cap Jack Harkness back, it's all gonna crumble. But the 11th doctor doesn't seem to be one to kiss or anything.
Actually, I love number 2. I love that his sonic screwdriver has limitless functions! Resonating concrete, re-attaching barbed wire, breaking perception filters, locking doors, unlocking doors, and, apparently, getting rid of potholes (that would be soooooo useful)... Before someone says, "it's not very realistic though," remember that this is Doctor Who, a TV show about an alien who travels in time and space in a TARDIS with a human companion. Is is supposed to be realistic?
@TARD1S77 We also have to remember that, according to recent insinuations within certain Christmas episodes... instead of being lonely, the Doctor created a new type of screwdriver. He had to get crazily creative or it wouldn't have kept working! Makes perfect sense! Also... it doesn't work on wood. Ironic.
Could someone help out an American? I've been trying to figure out why British people say they hate/dislike Cardiff, and I've been searching all over the internet but can't really find an answer. Seriously, why do those Brits hate Cardiff? It looks nice enough to me.

@mitmfan I didn't realise things had become so heated over here! Obviously people have different tastes and what's important is that 13million or so BBC One viewers like Doctor Who just the way it is, even with its little flaws. If you prefer 'Old Who', you're welcome to watch it - nobody's going to take it away from you! Thumbs-down the comments you don't like, they'll soon disappear. Blocking people won't solve much, as they can always make a new username.
@mitmfan If you hadn't realised, this vid is about the flaws in Nu-hu. So what is wrong with making comments about flaws in Nu-hu if that is what the video is about? Nothing.
The last one was bizarre...so what if there is the very very occasional gay character (calling a persons sexuality a subplot is incredibly odd), it's always incidental to the plot and gives the show a more inclusive feel. This complaint comes off kinda homophobic to me.
@KaminaWash No, the inclusion of a random gay sub-plot is "homophobic". It would be gay friendly if they were just acted like normal characters & not like stereotypes. The only difference between gays & straights are their sexual preferences, so why should DW be all about people's sexual preferences as soon as a gay character turns up?
Many gays even find ReTarD's relentless inclusion of gays somewhat offensive.
@AmazingKa7 That's nothing new. They reused actors & actresses in classic Doctor Who as well. Michael Sheard, Lalla Ward, Colin Baker, Nicholas Courtney, Christopher Benjamin, Jean Marsh, Sheila Dunn, Ian Marter, Jacqueline Hill, Michael Wisher, Terry Molloy, Peter Purves (two different characters in the same serial), Julian Glover, and Kevin Stoney to name several.
@mitmfan That was over a period of 26 years, so there's a mild difference. Nu-hu is excessive in its re-use of actresses as well as story ideas. The whole thing is rather repetitive & predictable.
@LegoDaleks Not you again. There are shows I hate yet I don't try to convince people why they shouldn't watch the show; I avoid it altogether. Not everyone is going to have the same opinion nor will everyone change their opinion. I know it must be difficult for you realizing that not everyone is going to share your opinion, but I think it is best if you deal with it. If everyone did what you're doing to shows they don't like, no one would watch anything.
@LegoDaleks Since and you have no problem with someone like Jean Marsh having multiple roles in classic DW (Joanna in Season 2’s “The Crusade”, Sara Kingdom in Season 3’s “The Daleks’ Master Plan”, and Morgaine in Season 26’s “Battlefield”), it would make sense for you to not have a problem with people appearing in classic and new Doctor Who. Therefore, I will restrict myself to people appearing in multiple new DW stories.
The only two I know of are Eve Myles and Freema Agyeman.
@LegoDaleks I think you might have misread my comment. I agreed with you that you can't count Jean Marsh, and since you can't count Jean Marsh (b/c of the 23 season gap) then it wouldn't make sense to include someone like Pauline Collins who appeared on new DW and classic DW.
To answer #2 first, no--it's just better if people chose on their own to not watch something, then have somebody like you try to convince us not to watch a show.
You seem to want to convince us that we shouldn't watch new DW, because you don't like it. I'm sure every single show has at least 1 person who doesn't like it, & if they were all like you (saying don't watch a show they don't like) then no one would watch anything. I'm not saying you don't watch anything; I'm saying the shows you do watch there is probably 1 person who dislikes it. If they were like you, they would come here, tell us why that show is bad, & try to convince us not to watch it
@BLyratt I did the Mary Sue Litmus test for a couple of the characters, and, while Rose and perhaps River are classic Mary Sue, the Doctor, the TARDIS and most of the other companions are Sues as well . . . Their definition of a "Mary Sue" is different then mine (I probably see it more like you - girls who are too good to be true - they pretty much see any "main character" as a Sue if they have multiple love interests and powers like time travel or share the writer's opinions. . .)
@playfulkitty828 Rose Tyler is more your generic, run-of-the-mill Mary Sue. Everyone loves her, she's seventeen and STILL gets a centuries-old boyfriend, she's written to be very clever, and the Doctor still loves her even though she always has to be saved. She also doesn't have much of a consistent and natural personality, which disturbs me (being a writer XD)
The Doctor is definitely a Mary Sue though.
Also, I've taken the Mary Sue litmus test and am guilty of writing a few very very bad sues.
@BLyratt OMG I am a horrid Sue writer as well!!!! I took that test and pretty much all my characters fail (the long one - there's another one I like more which none of my characters have failed, but I use it when I choose to dellude myself into thinking that I am a good writer . . . although, so many people watch Doctor Who even though the main character and most if not all the companions are Sues).
@Betterthanmew You can go to thinkg eek.com and order one plus the 10th doctors sonic screwdriver costs less than the 11th or u can buy the flash light ones which are pretty cool too
@xoxoalice423 i have a sort of flashlighty keychainy one for christmas but its tiny and it doesnty make the timey wimey noise :( sadface :(:( doublesadface!
at 1:27 where did u get the sonic screwdriver? i know the comic shop in my town has the season 11 ones but i like the originalblue light one better! did u order or do i have to go like, 600 miles to get one? lol (im lazy XD)
0:36 You know, exactly this was done back in the 70s in "The Invasion of Time" to show off the vastness of the Tardis interior... only it was done with a storage depot. The third time they descend the same steps Leela even tells the Doctor that they have been there before, though he doesn't want to hear about it, as it would mean that he can't even find his way through his own ship.
Sonic doesn't do wood, also, in the words of Ten, "Doesn't kill, doesn't wound, doesn't maim --" In other words, it isn't a weapon, although it CAN be used to disable actual weapons. It scans for info, it extracts certain kinds of poison, and, again as Ten says "it is VERY good at opening doors."
@LegoDaleks First of all, all of us. Because we're passionate and loud and wait a minute, I'm NOT a Nuvian, I'm a HUGE fan of Classic Who (Peter Davison being my favorite Doctor from that era and Adric being my favorite companion). Way to make snap judgments. Good job.
Second of all, Rule Number 1: The Doctor lies. That, my friend, is what one would call "a bluff".
"Why's the Doctor kissing that french woman? I thought he loved Rose." The Doctor lies.
"How are the Timelords back? I thought he was the last of his kind, that's why he kept crying about them. If they were in another universe all this time, wouldn't he have been glad?" The Doctor lies, which means he sheds crocodile tears once in a while.
"What about in Waters of mars when-" THE DOCTOR LIES!
@thatwhichisgiven How exactly did she "come onto him", as a little girl? Good excuse though, she practically rape-kissed him.
2) They aren't dead though. In fact during the "timewar" more timelords came to life than died - Rassilon & the Master. So why cry?
3) There were many plot holes. 1 being his immature, irrational, hysterical, out-of-character(see the ending of 'The Massacre') behaviour which messed everything up. And the Daleks not wanting to change history is contradicted in Victory.
@LegoDaleks 2.) They're trapped into non-existence, and as until Utopia he believes that the Master was trapped with them he believed that there was no way he could ever see his family/friends again..
@thatwhichisgiven If you watched the original sees you would know that he didn't really like Gallifrey or the Timelords, which is why he left & the few times he did go back he didn't bother visiting his "family" & "friends" face it, it makes no sense for him to cry over a war where people spring to life instead of die.
@LegoDaleks I DO watch the original series, and in fact, they addressed this in End of Time Part 2. He speaks of the Time Lords as being wonderful because he chooses to remember them that way, out of respect for his homeland. Also, in the 1996 movie with the 8th Doctor, he says that he remembers "lying out under the stars with his father", so clearly there are parts of life on Gallifrey that he remembers with affection.
@LegoDaleks 3) Not really a plothole. That was the Doctor being very much in character -- that is, flawed. 900+ years of struggle and self-hatred finally catching up with him. It would drive anyone...
@LegoDaleks 3) (cont)... mad, even someone as strong as the Doctor. And yeah, I good point about the Daleks, but when little things like that are sacrificed for the telling of a beautiful story I...
@LegoDaleks 3) (cont) ... try not to let it bother me. Not like that one moment with the Dalek ruins the entire series. That episode made me cry, it's one of my all-time favorites, plotholes or no.
@thatwhichisgiven Victory of the Daleks is not a beautiful story. The fact that the Dr is 900+ years old would mean that he should be MORE mature than during his first incarnation not totally immature. It was up to that woman to hold up the laws of time by committing suicide just because this the Dr in a fit of hysteria decides to save her from her natural death. And he calls himself a timelord? Some human woman was more rational that an ancient timelord? Ridiculous!
@LegoDaleks I didn't say Victory of the Daleks was. I said Waters of Mars was. The fact that the Doctor is 900+ years means that yes, he's seen a lot, but he's had his hearts broken about a million times. Waters of Mars is the episode where it finally got to him. Yes, he was wrong to do it, but I understand. It's in his nature to save people, and it devestates him when he can't. You think that the end of The Massacre didn't tear him apart inside? It did, he just hadn't been worn down...
@thatwhichisgiven His hysterics & immature behaviour was irrational & irresponsible. The Dr isn't supposed to be an idiot who's emotions control his actions.
@LegoDaleks ... to the point of showing it yet. The Waters of Mars was the straw that broke the camels back, as the saying goes. It also shows that the Doctor is NOT God, and doesn't have the right or the power to claim that position. He knows this, but not being God he is imperfect and even, to a point, weak. She was more rational then he in that moment because she knew her place in the universe; he knew his, but in his momentary arrogance forgot it. He learned his lesson, too...
@LegoDaleks ... When he says "I've gone too far," and turns, it's like he's waking up. He suddenly realizes where he is and what he's done, and he turns to the Ood like he knows it was there the entire time. He learned a lesson, just like every character should.
Also, this is a different Doctor then the one in The Massacre. New regeneration, new personality, new weaknesses and opinions. He's changed. If you can't change with him, then that's your problem, and yeah, it's a big one....
@thatwhichisgiven He changed into an over-emotional, immature, irrational cartoon Casanova when he's was 9 then he was the same as 10 & still the same as 11. The Dr's personality is supposed to change but not into something so different that he's hardly recognisable & the nu-hu Dr's don't change after regeneration. 9 was the over-emotional, irrational teenager who was in love with a 19 year old, why are the others just the same? The difference is the others have a wand & 10 was a Casanova.
@LegoDaleks ... So sorry if you're stuck holding on to the past. The rest of the universe has moved on, and the Doctor you love no longer exists, sad as that may be. I still miss Ten desperately, but I'm learning to love Eleven, and I don't compare the two. They're different people, but with the same memories and the same, overwhelming guilt (which BTW is the reason for Waters of Mars). The NuWho stuff is still Doctor Who, it's just progressed and moved forward -- unlike you. So if you can't...
@thatwhichisgiven MY GOD, YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!
Turning the Doctor into this over-emotional simpleton is like turning James Bond into a hippie or Gandalf into Scooby Doo - it's just wrong, nothing to do with "holding onto the past". You don't think there were changes over 26 years? THERE WERE, but it was still DW, not some sub-standard, dumbed-down, repetitive cartoon with magic wands. So the Dr "existed" after 1989 but died in 2005 when he was replaced? Load of Nonsense.
@thatwhichisgiven (continued) DW unlike Nu-hu has longevity & will always be remembered. Nu-hu is a dated soap opera which caters to base, fickle fangirls. Fangirls grow up whereas sci-fi geeks are for life. The same way that people still care about 80 DW today, they still will in the future, whereas Nu-hu will be as forgotten about as 80's Coronation Street. Only REAL sci-fi survives, soaps die.
11 is just 10 again, except played by a superior actor.
@LegoDaleks ... handle change and 50 year's worth of continuous character development, then any further argument is pointless, and I have nothing more to say to you.
(On a side note, I'm also ending this because I feel like we wasted a whole lot of time over an argument that started because of a comment on the limitations of a screwdriver. I have better things to do and Doctor Who eipsodes to watch. Thank you and goodbye.)
@thatwhichisgiven Nu-hu isn't about character development. It's just a sad-excuse 4 a spin-off. It's like Tom & Jerry Kidz. Does Tom & Jerry Kidz develop character & has moved on from the original Tom & Jerry? Perhaps. But no one cares about Tom & Jerry Kidz cuz it was garbage. The same way Tom&Jerry is still remembered is the same way DW will be & the same way Tom & Jerry Kidz has disappeared into obscurity is the same condition stuff like Nu-hu & Twilight will be in. Here today, gone tomorrow.
@LegoDaleks I think I speak for a lot of people here when I say "go away". You hate new DW, fine. Just don't complain about it on a YouTube video where you are most likely going to find tons of Doctor Who fans. Why not discuss this in real life? Or make a video whose main attraction is for non-fans of new Doctor Who?
You don't see me going to videos of shows I don't like and complaining about it. If you don't like new DW, then don't visit videos of new DW.
@thatwhichisgiven ...heart to hearts, running back & forth & 0 character development even though it was an HOUR long. Only shallow emotions. ReTarD's writing sad stuff tactic is, instead of something sad happening, just have the characters cry their eyes out for no reason.
@LegoDaleks So a woman comitting suicide is no reason to cry? Or the loss of one's entire homeland? Or never being able to age while all your loved ones age and die around you? Or blaming yourself for all the people you weren't able to save? Because I find those things to be ridiculously sad.
@thatwhichisgiven No, I wasn't talking about the woman's death when I was talking about the crying. He didn't "lose" his "homeland", that's the point. It still exists & so do the timelords, therefore, why does he same he's the last & why does he cry about it?
@thatwhichisgiven Even the title is simple-minded: Waters of Mars. What's the 1st thing that comes to mind when you hear the name Mars? The Face of Mars, but since ReTarD already did the Face of Boe as well as the face of Earth (Casandra) he decides to do the second thing one thinks of - is there water on Mars(?)
The whole thing starts out like most ReTarD scripts: Dr exits the TARDIS grinning like an imbecile. He cannot, should not & would not save those people! See the ending of The Massacre
@thatwhichisgiven Yeah yeah. Rose is the love of his life one minute & the next its the french woman. Either the Doctor is just a jerk or it's inconsistent.
something about the CGI, It's a low budget series, it always has been. Ever since the First doctor, it's been low budget. I think nowadays it's to test the staff, to keep things low budget to see if the acting and screenplay can make up for it. and Moffat's done a pretty good job with NuWho if you ask me.
@MsMoonfan4ever Nu-hu is NOT a low budget series. Where do you get this stuff from? The first 26 years was low budget (it was budgeted like a kids show would be & even East Enders had a higher budget). Nu-hu has a much higher budget than other programmes today, it's not budgeted like a kids show anymore. So the cheap FX aren't excusable anymore. The production team just spend their money in all the wrong places like on the Executive Producers, Casting Director, Director of Photography etc.
@LegoDaleks hhm.. well that pretty much addresses my thoughts. I was gonna say it's a fairly low budget show but you're right it kind of isn't. what I will say is they film like it's low budget
I love this video! (And you make an awesome Doctor.) But I have the Tenth's Sonic (which I totally don't carry in my purse... ahem), and it makes me cringe to see you sling it around like that.
Dude, if you think the effects in New Who are bad, you should check out some Old Who... papier mache, tin foil, cellophane, I kid you not. Good for a laugh x)
I agree about the CGI bit, but the others, while i see your point, TV doesn't quite work that way. Also, i found the screwdriver to work mostly on tweaking anything metal.
Just realised the first thing that pops into almost everyone i knows head when i say doctor who...Endless corridors! Eh, you gotta love em....or not....
The best thing about Doctor Who is that, despite its many flaws (we know they're there!), it excels in brilliant storytelling and acting that compels it to succeed.
@operageek65 It's one of those things where if you overanalyze it, you take out all the geeky fun. That's what I miss about New Who Seasons 6+ - they try to make it too cool and awesome and it's not geeky anymore. :C I would love to be proven wrong, though, if anyone has evidence of it being horribly geeky.
@BLyratt The new series is still really geeky, it's just really pretty and glossy and shiny now. Doctor Who will never not be geeky. It's just being updated again, as per usual, and we just need to get used to it all over again and find the old that we love in the still greatness of the new.

@BLyratt I did the Mary Sue Litmus test for a couple of the characters, and, while Rose and perhaps River are classic Mary Sue, the Doctor, the TARDIS and most of the other companions are Sues as well . . . Their definition of a "Mary Sue" is different then mine (I probably see it more like you - girls who are too good to be true - they pretty much see any "main character" as a Sue if they have multiple love interests and powers like time travel or share the writer's opinions. . .)

@playfulkitty828 Rose Tyler is more your generic, run-of-the-mill Mary Sue. Everyone loves her, she's seventeen and STILL gets a centuries-old boyfriend, she's written to be very clever, and the Doctor still loves her even though she always has to be saved. She also doesn't have much of a consistent and natural personality, which disturbs me (being a writer XD)
The Doctor is definitely a Mary Sue though.
Also, I've taken the Mary Sue litmus test and am guilty of writing a few very very bad sues.
BLyratt 2 weeks ago
@BLyratt OMG I am a horrid Sue writer as well!!!! I took that test and pretty much all my characters fail (the long one - there's another one I like more which none of my characters have failed, but I use it when I choose to dellude myself into thinking that I am a good writer . . . although, so many people watch Doctor Who even though the main character and most if not all the companions are Sues).

0:36 You know, exactly this was done back in the 70s in "The Invasion of Time" to show off the vastness of the Tardis interior... only it was done with a storage depot. The third time they descend the same steps Leela even tells the Doctor that they have been there before, though he doesn't want to hear about it, as it would mean that he can't even find his way through his own ship.

@KingLofiOne That was to show the vastness of the ship as you said. It made sense in Invasion of Time, but doesn't in Nu-hu.

Sonic doesn't do wood, also, in the words of Ten, "Doesn't kill, doesn't wound, doesn't maim --" In other words, it isn't a weapon, although it CAN be used to disable actual weapons. It scans for info, it extracts certain kinds of poison, and, again as Ten says "it is VERY good at opening doors."

He has a tendency to point it at people threateningly as if it were a gun.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks First of all, all of us. Because we're passionate and loud and wait a minute, I'm NOT a Nuvian, I'm a HUGE fan of Classic Who (Peter Davison being my favorite Doctor from that era and Adric being my favorite companion). Way to make snap judgments. Good job.
Second of all, Rule Number 1: The Doctor lies. That, my friend, is what one would call "a bluff".
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven The Doctor lies - what an excellent line.
"Why's the Doctor kissing that french woman? I thought he loved Rose." The Doctor lies.
"How are the Timelords back? I thought he was the last of his kind, that's why he kept crying about them. If they were in another universe all this time, wouldn't he have been glad?" The Doctor lies, which means he sheds crocodile tears once in a while.
"What about in Waters of mars when-" THE DOCTOR LIES!
Now U can excuse all of Nu-hu's ineptitudes.

@LegoDaleks
Question Number 1: Because it's Madame de Pompadour and she came onto him.
Number 2: Not in another universe, in a time lock -- trapped in non-existence for all eternity, until they manage to get a signal out.
Number 3: What about Waters of Mars? I didn't see any plotholes there, just Ten being heartbreakingly deluded about his role in the universe.
Number 4: Why is the Doctor pointing the Sonic like it's a weapon? So the enemy will think he has a gun and NOT KILL HIM. Duh.
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven How exactly did she "come onto him", as a little girl? Good excuse though, she practically rape-kissed him.
2) They aren't dead though. In fact during the "timewar" more timelords came to life than died - Rassilon & the Master. So why cry?
3) There were many plot holes. 1 being his immature, irrational, hysterical, out-of-character(see the ending of 'The Massacre') behaviour which messed everything up. And the Daleks not wanting to change history is contradicted in Victory.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks 2.) They're trapped into non-existence, and as until Utopia he believes that the Master was trapped with them he believed that there was no way he could ever see his family/friends again..
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven If you watched the original sees you would know that he didn't really like Gallifrey or the Timelords, which is why he left & the few times he did go back he didn't bother visiting his "family" & "friends" face it, it makes no sense for him to cry over a war where people spring to life instead of die.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks I DO watch the original series, and in fact, they addressed this in End of Time Part 2. He speaks of the Time Lords as being wonderful because he chooses to remember them that way, out of respect for his homeland. Also, in the 1996 movie with the 8th Doctor, he says that he remembers "lying out under the stars with his father", so clearly there are parts of life on Gallifrey that he remembers with affection.

@LegoDaleks 2) (cont) ... Pretty much they were trapped into spending an eternity burning without hope of salvation. Which would make anyone cry.

thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven Victory of the Daleks is not a beautiful story. The fact that the Dr is 900+ years old would mean that he should be MORE mature than during his first incarnation not totally immature. It was up to that woman to hold up the laws of time by committing suicide just because this the Dr in a fit of hysteria decides to save her from her natural death. And he calls himself a timelord? Some human woman was more rational that an ancient timelord? Ridiculous!
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks I didn't say Victory of the Daleks was. I said Waters of Mars was. The fact that the Doctor is 900+ years means that yes, he's seen a lot, but he's had his hearts broken about a million times. Waters of Mars is the episode where it finally got to him. Yes, he was wrong to do it, but I understand. It's in his nature to save people, and it devestates him when he can't. You think that the end of The Massacre didn't tear him apart inside? It did, he just hadn't been worn down...
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven His hysterics & immature behaviour was irrational & irresponsible. The Dr isn't supposed to be an idiot who's emotions control his actions.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks ... to the point of showing it yet. The Waters of Mars was the straw that broke the camels back, as the saying goes. It also shows that the Doctor is NOT God, and doesn't have the right or the power to claim that position. He knows this, but not being God he is imperfect and even, to a point, weak. She was more rational then he in that moment because she knew her place in the universe; he knew his, but in his momentary arrogance forgot it. He learned his lesson, too...
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks ... When he says "I've gone too far," and turns, it's like he's waking up. He suddenly realizes where he is and what he's done, and he turns to the Ood like he knows it was there the entire time. He learned a lesson, just like every character should.
Also, this is a different Doctor then the one in The Massacre. New regeneration, new personality, new weaknesses and opinions. He's changed. If you can't change with him, then that's your problem, and yeah, it's a big one....
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven He changed into an over-emotional, immature, irrational cartoon Casanova when he's was 9 then he was the same as 10 & still the same as 11. The Dr's personality is supposed to change but not into something so different that he's hardly recognisable & the nu-hu Dr's don't change after regeneration. 9 was the over-emotional, irrational teenager who was in love with a 19 year old, why are the others just the same? The difference is the others have a wand & 10 was a Casanova.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks ... So sorry if you're stuck holding on to the past. The rest of the universe has moved on, and the Doctor you love no longer exists, sad as that may be. I still miss Ten desperately, but I'm learning to love Eleven, and I don't compare the two. They're different people, but with the same memories and the same, overwhelming guilt (which BTW is the reason for Waters of Mars). The NuWho stuff is still Doctor Who, it's just progressed and moved forward -- unlike you. So if you can't...
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven MY GOD, YOU HAVE NO CLUE WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!
Turning the Doctor into this over-emotional simpleton is like turning James Bond into a hippie or Gandalf into Scooby Doo - it's just wrong, nothing to do with "holding onto the past". You don't think there were changes over 26 years? THERE WERE, but it was still DW, not some sub-standard, dumbed-down, repetitive cartoon with magic wands. So the Dr "existed" after 1989 but died in 2005 when he was replaced? Load of Nonsense.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven (continued) DW unlike Nu-hu has longevity & will always be remembered. Nu-hu is a dated soap opera which caters to base, fickle fangirls. Fangirls grow up whereas sci-fi geeks are for life. The same way that people still care about 80 DW today, they still will in the future, whereas Nu-hu will be as forgotten about as 80's Coronation Street. Only REAL sci-fi survives, soaps die.
11 is just 10 again, except played by a superior actor.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks ... handle change and 50 year's worth of continuous character development, then any further argument is pointless, and I have nothing more to say to you.
(On a side note, I'm also ending this because I feel like we wasted a whole lot of time over an argument that started because of a comment on the limitations of a screwdriver. I have better things to do and Doctor Who eipsodes to watch. Thank you and goodbye.)
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven Nu-hu isn't about character development. It's just a sad-excuse 4 a spin-off. It's like Tom & Jerry Kidz. Does Tom & Jerry Kidz develop character & has moved on from the original Tom & Jerry? Perhaps. But no one cares about Tom & Jerry Kidz cuz it was garbage. The same way Tom&Jerry is still remembered is the same way DW will be & the same way Tom & Jerry Kidz has disappeared into obscurity is the same condition stuff like Nu-hu & Twilight will be in. Here today, gone tomorrow.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks I think I speak for a lot of people here when I say "go away". You hate new DW, fine. Just don't complain about it on a YouTube video where you are most likely going to find tons of Doctor Who fans. Why not discuss this in real life? Or make a video whose main attraction is for non-fans of new Doctor Who?
You don't see me going to videos of shows I don't like and complaining about it. If you don't like new DW, then don't visit videos of new DW.
mitmfan 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven ...heart to hearts, running back & forth & 0 character development even though it was an HOUR long. Only shallow emotions. ReTarD's writing sad stuff tactic is, instead of something sad happening, just have the characters cry their eyes out for no reason.
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@LegoDaleks So a woman comitting suicide is no reason to cry? Or the loss of one's entire homeland? Or never being able to age while all your loved ones age and die around you? Or blaming yourself for all the people you weren't able to save? Because I find those things to be ridiculously sad.
thatwhichisgiven 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven No, I wasn't talking about the woman's death when I was talking about the crying. He didn't "lose" his "homeland", that's the point. It still exists & so do the timelords, therefore, why does he same he's the last & why does he cry about it?
LegoDaleks 1 week ago
@thatwhichisgiven Even the title is simple-minded: Waters of Mars. What's the 1st thing that comes to mind when you hear the name Mars? The Face of Mars, but since ReTarD already did the Face of Boe as well as the face of Earth (Casandra) he decides to do the second thing one thinks of - is there water on Mars(?)
The whole thing starts out like most ReTarD scripts: Dr exits the TARDIS grinning like an imbecile. He cannot, should not & would not save those people! See the ending of The Massacre

something about the CGI, It's a low budget series, it always has been. Ever since the First doctor, it's been low budget. I think nowadays it's to test the staff, to keep things low budget to see if the acting and screenplay can make up for it. and Moffat's done a pretty good job with NuWho if you ask me.
MsMoonfan4ever 3 weeks ago
@MsMoonfan4ever Nu-hu is NOT a low budget series. Where do you get this stuff from? The first 26 years was low budget (it was budgeted like a kids show would be & even East Enders had a higher budget). Nu-hu has a much higher budget than other programmes today, it's not budgeted like a kids show anymore. So the cheap FX aren't excusable anymore. The production team just spend their money in all the wrong places like on the Executive Producers, Casting Director, Director of Photography etc.
