Doctor Who

[barrelgal]

Any other Who fans out there? I'm so excited for the premier of the new season on Sept 1.

Thinking of having a watch party for my friends. Not serving fish fingers and custard though.

Ooh ooh! Me!

September 1st? Cool! I've been hunting around online to find out when. First I saw August sometime, then just fall.

Agreed on the custard and fish fingers. Maybe individually, but definitely not combined.

I did just order a couple of gifts for DH - a sonic screwdriver (didn't spring 40 bucks for the one with sound effects) and a little Tardis keychain for his desk. I seriously considered the Tardis lunch box. DH's time trial bike is named the Tardis, because it's like a time machine.

I thought I'd miss the previous Doctor, but I really like the new one. Okay, newest. And I like Amy (can't decide which companion is my favorite - either Amy Pond or Martha Jones).

I am still working to love Matt Smith and the current episodes, but I still am dedicated to watching. This morning I was watching the Badwolf episode, a good 9th doctor flashback.

I saw we're getting the new episodes the same day as the UK, which is cool.

Hee hee! Yup - almost got him the USB charger. Maybe Christmas.

Me too! I though the ads on BBC America just said starting sometime in September, I didn't realize they were actually starting them in Sept 1st! Yay!

Found an 'exclusive' trailer online:

The only way I knew the premier date was from a podcast I listen to (Nerdist). BBC America hasn't done much advertising that I have seen on TV.

I loved the original Dr. Who way back in the day. I'll have to check out the new one.

Tulip,
As much as I love the new series (and I love it SOOOO much) if you want to get youself hooked, don't start at the first ep of the new series, start with "the Empty Child" or "Blink" the first few episodes of the series take a little while to get their feet under them and take off.

Colby,
Just noticed your Firefly call out above your Avatar LOVE!

Seems like in a forum of bike geeks we also have quite a few who-geeks (or whovians) and browncoats! I feel so at home

Are you my mummy? Mommeeee...

My favorite doctor was Christopher Eccleston. He seemed to give the role a hint of darkness and gravity. The Hollow Child and The Doctor Dances are still my all time favorite episodes. But Silence In The Library was great too.
