Honestly, this could be a whole other website on its own.

Doctor Who has been my favorite show since 2010.
I've rewatched the episodes so many times throughout the years that I've got them all memorised.
I've even converted my entire family into Doctor Who fans. It was the first thing I was ever a die-hard fan of.

About

Doctor Who is a British science fiction show. It started running in 1963 up until 1989. That period is known as Classic Who. It was rebooted in 2005 and is still going to this day. Awesome.
That's what I'll be talking about here, the modern reboot, since that's what I grew up watching.

It's about the adventures of a Time Lord called the Doctor, an alien from the planet Gallifrey. He looks just like a regular human. Except he has 2 hearts and can regenerate. Oh, and he's centuries old.

He explores the universe in a time-travelling spaceship called the TARDIS. (Stands for: Time and Relative Dimension in Space) The TARDIS looks like a small blue police box on the outside. But it's bigger on the inside...I mean, HUGE.

The Doctor and his companions are always saving the Universe from a load of different aliens who either want to change the course of history or exterminate entire solar systems, and whatever else evil aliens do. I mean, come on, I just love watching the Doctor travel to Victorian England to enjoy Christmas and then he ends up running into a bunch of Cybermen trying to DELETE people.

Fun facts

• It's a pretty big part of British pop-culture.


• The TARDIS looks like a police box, because it uses a 'chameleon circuit' to blend in with it's surroundings as a disguise. One day it broke so now it looks like that permanently.


• The show has been running for so long because the transition from one actor to another is written into the plot with the concept of regeneration into a new incarnation, a plot device in which a Time Lord "transforms" into a new body when the current one is close to death.


• There's actually a real-life asteroid named after the TARDIS [Asteroid 3325 TARDIS].


• Doctor Who words have MADE IT INTO THE DICTIONARY!!! In 2017, sonic screwdriver was added to the Oxford English Dictionary, which defined it as "a (hand-held) electronic device which uses sound waves to perform various mechanical and technical functions. Originally and chiefly in (or in reference to) the British television series Doctor Who." The words TARDIS, Dalek, and Cyberman are in there too.


• The time-vortex in the openings of S1-S4 are colour-coded. A blue time-vortex means the episode takes place in the past. A red time-vortex means the epsiode takes place in the future. (If it were up to me, the colours would be switched.)

Characters



10th Doctor

11th Doctor

12th Doctor





There are loads of incarnations of the Doctor but these three are the best. My favourite is the Eleventh Doctor because he was my first Doctor. I like how he's hilarious and whimsical. I love his style too. Bow ties are cool.






Rose

Martha

Donna







Amy

Rory

Clara





The Doctor always travels with companions, he doesn't like travelling alone (TAKE ME BRO). My favourites are Donna, Amy and Rory.
Donna's really funny and I like her sarcasm. I love her dynamic with the Doctor and how they were just two best mates exploring time and space. I love Amy and Rory, because uhh, rose-tinted glasses of nostalgia.





Aliens

There are waaaaay too many aliens in the show for me to name them all, so I'll just show you guys the coolest ones.





Cybermen

The Cybermen are cyborgs from the planet Mondas who forcefully convert humans into more Cybermen to populate their ranks while also removing their emotions and personalities. I love these guys. Their design is so awesome.






Daleks

Come on. Everybody knows these guys. If you don't... you should be EXTERMINATED!!!






Weeping Angels

The angels are coming for you, but listen, your life could depend on this: don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. They are fast, faster than you could believe.






Vashta Nerada

Talk about turning something as mundane as shadows into something terrifying. Vashta Nerada are the shadows that melt the flesh. I would name my kid that.

Random

Seriously, you read all that? If you wanna start watching the show, you should stop reading now. Because spoilers.



Anyway. I'm not too excited for the new season of Doctor Who. I was so happy when I heard David Tennant and Catherine Tate were coming back for the Christmas specials, and that RTD was going to write for the show again. The first special was alright, I liked seeing the Doctor amd Donna meet again. But the rest of the episode was lame.
The second special was the BEST DAMN EPISODE IN YEARS (since Capaldi left). Had me on the edge of my seat. I watched it 3 times.

The last special started off so good and the villain was genuinely freaky but the episode had one of the worst fucking endings I've ever seen. I can't even describe it in words. They ruined the show. What the fuck is a bi-generation?? That wasn't even the worst episode. 10 minutes into the 14th Doctor's first episode and that's when I knew I was done. I need the Men in Black to nuke that shit out of my brain so I can forget about it. I saw the trailer for the next season and the only thing that interested me was the one episode where it seems like they travel to the 60's and meet The Beatles. I'll be watching that one because I love the 60's and I love The Beatles and I love(d) Doctor Who.
