I am really going to miss Christopher Eccleston!

Well with everything going on right now (school, tests, projects, How I Met Your Mother obsession, other tv shows:new and returning, dvds etc) I seem to be neglecting the Doctor. But I’ll finish watching it. Soon.

I just started watching today (and I’ve seen the first two episodes so far) and I absolutely love it! I’ve been mourning Buffy and Angel and Firefly and this is exactly what I needed. I loved how Britney Spears’ Toxic is a “traditional ballad” and I’ve got a huge craving for poutine because of all that talk about chips…

Our cable went out on us an THE DAY of the season finale, so I never had a chance to see it…It was the only reason I, myself had for watching cable at the time too. 8( I really want to see that finale…

Wow. In the words of The Doctor: “FANTASTIC!” I was really not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. I bought the set so my seven-year-old could watch it – a schoolmate of his had told him about Daleks, and he’s been obsessed with them ever since. And I’d heard less-than-glowing reviews of the older series’, but this is really, really good. I laughed, I cried (during several episodes, in fact), and my son and I had a great time watching these together – we made a marathon of it, starting on Saturday afternoon, and doing little else until we’d finished the series on Sunday at around midnight. (Yes, he was up WAY past his bedtime, mostly because I wanted to see what was going to happen). :D This was so much fun! I will probably watch some of the new ones, but I’m sure going to miss Christopher Eccleston – he is brilliant!
