All Caught Up

I have just finished catching up to Matt Smith on Doctor Who. I finally got to see the special where David Tenant leaves & it was AWESOME!!!! I'm not going to give too much away but a small spoiler would be that David Tenant gets to say goodbye to a lot of the characters that have been recurring on the show with him & those moments are very touching. It was a very well thought out, planned & executed show, I even cried(which really isn't that hard, but it was still very touching).
For me David Tenant is MY Doctor. I didn't really grow up watching Doctor Who, it used to be on TVO here in Ontario after a bunch of kids cartoons I watched, but the theme music scared me, I've never been able to figure out if that was because I had watched an episode & it had scared the shit out of me & had it imprinted on my mind afterwards, or if my mom would just turn the TV off when it came on to the point where I thought that the music was a bad thing, I dont' know. So I wasn't introduced to Doctor Who until I was much older, my good friend Sam had gotten the new Doctor Who on DVD & initiated me into one of the longest running Sci-Fi shows there are. I totally fell in love, right from the 'It's nice to meet you Rose, now run for your life!' Or some line like that. My favorite companion is Donna Noble, nobody can top her & I was very very VERY upset when she left, which I can't say how unless you've seen it cause that's a BIG spoiler.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to see Matt Smith, because David Tenant is my Doctor, but I had caught a couple of eps here & there, also a great commercial on Space where he's wearing a fez, it's hard to top that. So I downloaded all of series 5 and have caught up to the mid series cliff hanger on series 6.
I'm like Matt Smith's take on the Doctor, there's innocence there & a hell of a lot of him being a complete dork! I love it!!!!!!!!
So if you're still holding out because you loved David Tenant, don't worry, Matt Smith is awesome as the Doctor, but he's not David Tenant & he's not trying to be. Which is a great part for an actor playing the Doctor, it's the same character but totally different.
