Exterminate! Exterminate!

I've finally discovered the joys of Doctor Who! I was always nervous of not liking it - to not like such a great British institution would have been sad and a lapse in good taste. Besides, you can't hire the DVDs here, but I found I could stream them from my usual site. Anyway, I started watching backwards from Matt Smith's seasons. I like David Tennant, don't like Christopher Eccleston much, but Matt Smith is my favourite. He is a bit vulnerable and has more warmth, I think.Although the episodes have sad parts, generally they make me smile a lot. They're fun, eccentric and exciting. 

I'm also watching the latest episodes of White Collar.

Hi! Good of you to pop in! I'm not receiving your lj entries on my Friends Page. Strange.

It seems that Dr. Who either clicks completely or not at all. I haven't seen any of the pre-2005 series.

I understand your watching the Captain Jack/John Barrowman episodes repeatedly - he's great!

I haven't seen David Tennant or Matt Smith in anything besides Dr. Who.

Hi! I haven't updated my LJ for a few months - I really should do something about that.

I haven't seen any pre-2005 Dr Who eps either; from tiny bits I have seen, it just looked awful - especially the 1960s eps.

I do have to thank modern-Who though for introducing me to John Barrowman - my S1 and S2 Torchwood DVDs have certainly had a workout!

Ironically, just as I got your message, Matt Smith was on my screen in another show (The Street, I think) - a lot younger and with a very different accent! :)
