Dr. Who IMO is an example of an incredibly successful sci-fi franchise that puts most American efforts to shame. Honestly, I wish some of our black television and film producers like a 50 Cent or even a Tyler Perry would produce something similar with a primarily black cast. Sure it might not be an immediate big money maker but there is something to be said for the slow dough that comes from developing a cult following.

Can't wait for the new doctor. Matt Smith had a good run but it was time for him to go
The main thing I'm gonna miss about Matt Smith as the Doctor is River Song... :ohlawd:Hello Sweetie!

With the new Doctor they may need to bring back Captain Jack and dem Torchwood nikkas for some fukkery

Anybody check out the leaked 1st episode of the new season?
It's in black and white and all of the effects aren't final but it was a decent watch.
Got hope for Capaldi in the role after watching the episode but the initial intro of him was rough.

I noticed that, too. :laugh: No fade out/fade in. The new rules, I guess? :yeshrug:

I thought this was because he had already used most of the regeneration goo the Timelords gave him. He started regenerating as soon as he went ham on the Daleks, for some reason he was just able to delay it and say goodbye to Clara.

Doctor Who is the sci-fi goat.

So... how we feel about the new doctor?
Those post regeneration episodes are never a good barometer because the actor is not being his version of The Doctor. Its all confusion and sleeping for the majority of the episode.
I have faith that Capaldi can be good but its going to take episodes 2 and 3 before I can really render ajudgment on him.

Agreed but I want him to go really dark this time, the last two doctors were good but was usually jolly. Hopefully that they shown the darkness of the War Doctor they carry some of thst over to Capaldi
