Good evening everybody! This is Aifos coming to you alive from that blue box sitting on the corner of the road! Yes, the same one as last time, and no I have not left this spot! It is very cold outside, please bring me a blanket. I'd go get one myself, but then the blue box might disappear on me, and I won't let that happen! So, as you may know, a little while ago I started watching Doctor Who for the first time. My previous post was made after I had finished Eccleston, and now I have just finished Tennant. Which, first and foremost, an update from last time, I have found both the Whittaker collection, and the 60th anniversary specials, so I shall watch those as well. The newest Doctor is still off limits. And I have to say, I'm very glad to be watching this show. I've loved every single episode! Well, all of them but one. Well, more like three or four, but only three or four! But really, I've quite enjoyed the characters, and the world, and the story arcs big and small. I will be very impressed if Tennant ends up not being my favorite Doctor because I really like Tennant. His personality is pretty similar to Eccleston, but with a few extra quirks that I just really enjoy. You can probably already guess what my favorite one is just by reading this post. While I still hold that Rose & the Doctor's relationship would've been more fun with a father/daughter dynamic, Rose being the person the Doctor was in love with felt less off with Tennant. I don't really have an explanation as for why, more just the vibe I got. Maybe it was the way they talked, or maybe I had just accepted it by then so my brain pushed back a bit less. I was a little iffy about the parallel world stuff at first, but I really came around to it by the time the season finale came around. I think Season 2's finale is probably my favorite of the bunch, but more on that below. My favorite moment for Rose probably has to be the end of Season 2 where she refuses to leave the Doctor. A boring answer, probably, but it was very good, what can I say? Rose and the Doctor really did care for each other a lot, and it was nice to see how far she'd go to stay with him. Martha was probably my favorite of the Doctor's companions. She felt a lot more active, I suppose. Like it felt like there were a lot more situations where Martha was on her own separated from the Doctor and had to figure things out, where Rose was a lot more along for the ride. I also thought her family dynamic was really fun, though I feel like we didn't get to see them as much as the others... But, that may just because there were more people to keep track of. She also probably gets bonus points for being in the Family of Blood episodes. If I have to pick from Season 3, my favorite moment from Martha is probably somewhere in the Family of Blood, but to be honest, my favorite scene with her probably comes from Season 4, and it's not actually a scene we see. In Turn Left, though, we hear she gave the last of the oxygen to one of her coworkers to save them during the the whole Smith & Jones thing, dying as a result. I may be a little biased by that scene being in Turn Left, though... Still, very touching. Martha, like the Doctor, would let herself die to save others without a second thought, and I like that trait in both of them. While Martha was probably my favorite companion, though, Donna definitely had my favorite dynamic with the Doctor. She was the only one who didn't have a romance subplot with the Doctor going on which I really appreciated. I didn't really care for all that with the other two companions, and I liked that Donna was, in the Doctor's own words, his best friend. Plus, Donna had a lot more funny lines, like "Oh, it doesn't work on WOOD?!". Good fun. My favorite scene with Donna is also in Turn Left, because I really love Turn Left, and it's when she's talking with her mother. Donna says something along the lines of "Guess I've always been a disappointment, huh?" and her mum says "Guess so.". Like, aww, poor Donna! My heart! The bit where the Doctor was traveling on his own was quite heartbreaking. Seeing him purposefully distance himself from everyone was very sad, especially when we get the Waters of Mars and see him absolutely lose it. He admitted to Donna at the beginning of the season that he needed someone to help him know when to stop, and when we actually see that play out it was so very sad. My favorite bit of the Doctor, as Tennant, is tricky, but it's either when he sat with the Ood in their cell, and how Donna could only listen to their song for a few seconds and when she asks the Doctor if he can still hear it he says "Always.", or it's in the finale where he turns to the Master and says "Get out of the way." followed by the Master doing the same thing to him. Like, he got the *Master* of all people to save his life. The other contender is also in the finale, right at the very end when he goes and visits everyone before he dies. Much sad. There may be a little bit of bias there, though because I watched the finale literally yesterday. Overall, though, wonderful show. I love it, and I'm excited to keep going. But okay, let's talk about specific episodes now! This post will run out of room, so that's in the selected answer below.
