Wanted for the murder of Doctor Who......Matt Smith

[mickrog]

worse than ever this week, I do however admit the scripts have nosedived.

[Answerprancer]

It doesn't help that they've dropped Russell T Davis :-(

Thankyou bibble. Could not place it but knew I knew it. If you understand my meaning.

I couldn't agree more, mickrog. I think, for me, the problem is not so much the quality of the scripts (which is pretty bad) but it's that Matt Smith is just awful! He suffers dreadfully in comparison with David Tennant, without doubt my favourite doctor.

Matt Smith and Sylvester McCoy....two dreadful doctors.
Pathetic. awful and couldn't act their way out of a wet paper bag

[micmak]

David Tennant was brill. So was the writer Russel T. It was bound to go downhill...

[DaisyNonna]

David Tennant. What a lovely Doctor!

[MarkRae]

It's very strange, micmak. Stephen Moffat is one of my favourite TV script writers. I maintain that "Coupling" was one of the best-written British sit-coms of all time, and that the episodes of Dr Who he wrote with RTD was still head writer were the best of that era, "The Empty Child" and "Blink" in particular...

[micmak]

Never saw The Coupling Mark, I did enjoy 'The empty child'

[mickrog]

interesting answers
not much else to say other than unless Smith is replaced quickly it will be.......

R.I,P, DR WHO

I thought tonights episode was good...written by Neil Gaiman BTW. Loved David Tennant, and didn't think I'd like Matt Smith but he's grown on me.

[LeMarchand]

The script this week was by multi-award winning author Neil Gaiman - a man who in a short sequence in one of his "Sandman" issues "threw away" (a writer is given an "idea overload" by a Muse and starts spouting out ideas for stories) better ideas than most writers have in their lifetimes.

Matt Smith is great - a "proper" Doctor (not to denigrate DT's interpretation, which certainly propelled the show into the mass consciousness). I think the current complaints about the show are because it is now "uncut" pure Doctor Who, whereas RTD made sure that he kept the "casual" viewers onside.

i really can't take to Matt Smith, there is something weird about him

[TheOtherHalf]

Yes, I too thought it was awful and Ive always been a DR Who fan but I dont think I will be watching it again. So sad

[mightywease]

Really enjoyed the episode, love Matt Smith, I will be keeping on watching so bye all you naysayers, I'll let you know what you miss, lol!!

I think that it would have been very difficult for any new actor taking on the role of the Doctor after David Tennant - he really was one of the best, along with John Pertwee. Imagine how much more Matt Smith would be liked if he'd come after Sylvester McCoy!
