Definitely some Tom Baker in the performance to be sure.<BR/><BR/>The 2nd "new" series started off shaky for me, but really found it's legs (as did he) in the latter half. Since then, I totally believe the guy in the part and he's owned it full on.<BR/><BR/>As much as I enjoy the re-boot (something frankly I NEVER thought possible), my only complaint had been (and you'll see how this is rectified in the MOST current series #4), is the hint/introduction of a sort of romance. Without giving too much away. I got over it, but much preferred how "relationships" were handled in this current series. You'll see what I'm on about after a good viewing of all.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy....um, fellow Who-geek!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13008722.post-79456793158250845382008-11-18T10:16:00.000-06:002008-11-18T10:16:00.000-06:00yeah, funny enough, i've actually seen a fair shar...yeah, funny enough, i've actually seen a fair share of the Eccleston episodes and he really was very good.<BR/><BR/>that said, don't know what it is, but Tennant really seems to have tapped into that quirkiness tha made a lot of the past Doctors so fun.<BR/><BR/>i'm going to start throwing DVDS from season 1 on up into the netflix rotation. proper.EL FAMOUShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03088335403191798929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13008722.post-22382616389177404352008-11-18T00:34:00.000-06:002008-11-18T00:34:00.000-06:00As an old school fan, and SO SURPRISED this new se...As an old school fan, and SO SURPRISED this new series has truly pulled off the "reboot" (and overall tastefully so), let me suggest starting with the first season of the new series starring Christopher Eccleston bro. REALLY the best way to do it, and to start from the "beginning" as it were.<BR/><BR/>PLUS watching these on BBC America or Sci Fi, they're edited all to hell, and broken up with commercials which ruin the pace of the whole thing. <BR/><BR/>Eccleston really nailed it for me, and the current guy Tennant started to find himself nearing the end of (new) series 2 and has really come into his own these last couple of series.<BR/><BR/>Hands up-yes, fellow geek here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
