Moffat: Why His Time as Showrunner May Not Be A Complete Success

August 7, 2017

google.com, pub-ca-pub-6067120031842370, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0 Moffat I read somewhere that said that Steven Moffat run Doctor Who through the golden age for the show. As I think back over the last seven years the show has had its ups and downs. These ups and downs are expected since he was the showrunner for seven years. There are times I love the program then there are others I really did not like it, but that is expected from all viewers. I love…

River: A Song for the Doctor Which Should be Heard Again

River Song I know that I am critical of Steven Moffat when it comes to Doctor Who. But his adding Professor River Song to Doctor Who is great. I love the fact that Moffat wanted to make the Doctor a husband. Apparently he is married one time already. I see that because he has a granddaughter when the series begins. Of course it is not inconceivable that he gets married again. The way Moffat plays this out is great. Of…

Die To die and change is something which comes more often than the Doctor wishes. The change of the Doctor is part of the alien race which he is associated. The Timelords are an alien race which receives a cycle of life with 12 regenerations. As a result, they can have 13 incarnations. Because of this they have 13 different faces. The change comes whenever a Timelord’s present body is worn out or dies. Death can come in many different…

Amelia Pond Returning to Doctor Who Might be Great

Amelia Pond Amelia Pond is the first companion for Matt Smith’s Doctor. The way they introduce her is great and I love the idea of bringing her back. The landing of the damaged TARDIS in Amelia’s back yard is different for sure. It leads to a long run of the Doctor and Amy and they add Rory to mix. I love Amy Scottish accent and the way she portrays herself around the Doctor, and I am sure that Chris Chibnall…

The Doctor’s Wife The Doctor’s Wife, River Song, burst on the scene in Silence in the Library. The Doctor at the time only finds out that she is from his future. She is a character from the mind of Steven Moffat which became a very interesting part of Doctor Who. As a result, she returns for another fifteen episodes. Therefore she sees the Tenth, Eleventh, and Twelfth Doctors. She is a character that I grew fond of over the last…

War Doctor I am truly sad. The actor who plays the War Doctor has died. For me this is sudden. I really don’t keep up to much with actors of Doctor Who. I only see these things when the show up on Facebook or the web. The memories I have of John Hurt are as the dragon on Merlin. He plays that role very well. I always love to hear him as he speaks to Merlin. The great thing is…

Thoughts about Whoopi Goldberg Playing a Character on Doctor Who

Whoopi Goldberg I am looking at my Facebook news feed this morning. I follow Radio Times, who write stories on Doctor Who. This story stands out to me, because I do not believe what I see. Whoopi Goldberg is dying to do Doctor Who.(1) As a result, I want to let people know what I think. Now, I am a sci-fi junky somewhat and Star Trek no matter which one intrigues me. I remember watching the original Star Trek with Captain…

Doctor Who and Its Monsters: Which one is the Scariest

Monsters Monsters are an integral part of Doctor Who. From the beginning the program has been one which has different kinds of monsters. Some of the aliens such as the Daleks can and are considered monsters. But in recent years the writers and producers are bringing in new monsters. Some of these are probably some of the scariest. With Doctor Who being a science fiction program just about anything goes. The creative minds over the years bring Daleks, Cybermen, Silurians,…

The Many Faces of the Master Personally, watching the many faces of the Master, makes me want more. I do realize that he may not be the first enemy which appears on the show, but he must be a favorite. Being a Time Lord there is going to be a possibility of a face change from time to time. There are many reasons for the actor playing the Master to change as well. So, I wish to write a little…

The TARDIS is not What it Appears on the Outside – The Exterior

If you look at the picture above, the exterior of the TARDIS shows several different looks. The thing to remember though is that the TARDIS is not exactly a Police Box. As a Doctor Who fan, most of us really only know one shape and that is the Blue Police box. After watching “The Name of the Doctor”, we find that the Type 40 appears as a silver-grey cylinder.(1) Of course, this is something most fans really do not know and…
