The Great Doctor Who (Re)Watch: 2005, part two
The Christmas Invasion - Despite the nauseating holiday setting, this is one of the best "first appearance" episodes of any Doctor.
I remember the first time I watched "The Christmas Invasion" I didn't get the "Doctor who?" joke at the beginning. And upon reflection, having seen all of the Classic Series, I don't remember that joke getting used very often. Maybe back then the writers felt it was little on the nose (and in fairness the joke does get a little overused in later seasons).
"Born Again" was the first of the Modern Series' many "minisodes" and the first to be broadcast on the Children in Need charity television specials. We're not going to cover all of them here, but this one warrants special mention because it actually features the very first interactions of the Tenth Doctor, and his first conversation with Rose Tyler.
THE GREAT DOCTOR WHO (RE)WATCH: The Tenth Doctor
The fiery and unstoppable Tenth Doctor, played by David Tennant, burst on the scene swordfighting aliens and lamenting the color of his hair, beginning one of the most successful tenures in the show's long history. Clad in his sharp skinny suit, long flowing trenchcoat and hi-top sneakers, the Tenth Doctor was pure adventure, positively leaping into every fray he could find with a wisecrack on his tongue and the Sonic Screwdriver between his teeth. During his four years driving the TARDIS, the show achieved levels of popularity beyond anyone's wildest imaginings, transforming it from a cult classic into a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. His final episode, "The End of Time," remains one of the the most-watched in British television history, ending with perhaps the most emotional scene (and iconic line) the show will ever deliver.
The Ninth Doctor: Final Thoughts
I won't go into the complicated, contradictory stories behind why Christopher Eccleston left Doctor Who. That story doesn't really belong on this blog, and there are plenty of online sources where you can read up on it yourself. But having rewatched the Ninth Doctor's time on the show, I can say it was a shame he wasn't able to stay on the show longer. Eccleston's Doctor is one of the more unique and singular iterations of the character the program has featured in its long history. There's definitely something understated about his take on the character, at least compared to some of the earlier, more colorful and outlandish versions, but at the same time he brought a level of gravitas to the role that very few other Doctors have conveyed (the Third Doctor and the Seventh Doctor come immediately to mind). Eccleston's Doctor is one weighted by sorrow, regret, and trauma, but he bears it with a kind of manly strength and a very English kind of "keep calm and carry on" attitude that gives the character a level of deep emotional resonance and strength of character. I'm not sure any other iteration had ever made you feel for the Doctor as much as Eccleston did for his, and in that way he very much set the template for how subsequent actors would play the role in the coming years. Overall? I don't know. He was many things. He was the Doctor. Just the Doctor.
Favorite Episode: The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances
Least Favorite Episode: The Unquiet Dead
The Great Doctor Who (Re)Watch: 2005, Part One
Rose - It might be cheesy and the special effects might be a little clunky, but it's still really fun watching the Doctor get reintroduced. The End of the World - An emotional and resonant story that gives us our first really good look at the new Doctor's emotional hearts. The Unquiet Dead - The first (sort of) Christmas special of Doctor Who is a little corny with its Victorian cliches, but there just enough good moments to sustain interest. Aliens of London/World War Three - Despite the farting aliens and the cringy effects used to realize them, this is really where the Modern Series gets going, introducing elements and characters that would shape the show for years to come. Dalek - The genocidal garbage cans are rarely taken very seriously as a concept, and as this excellent story aptly represents, when they are, you see why their status as the show's greatest creations is so very warranted. The Long Game - Decent little romp, with an underlying message that's relevent if a little ham-fisted in its delivery. Father's Day - This story is designed to illustrate the dangers of tampering with time and it's a little cringy, but its heart is in the right place. The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances - Absolutely awesome--scary, funny, suspenseful, and introduces Captain Jack. Favorite of the Modern Series so far. Boom Town - It occasionally gets tripped up by some dodgy show-spanning mythology but this is still a very fun and very poignant story. Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways - The first part, with the early-2000s game show parodies, is pretty dated and cringy, but the magnificent second part makes up for it by sending the Ninth Doctor out in fine fashion.
So long, Number Nine. We hardly knew ye
I'm back.
I want to finish up the Ninth and Tenth Doctors' era before the 60th anniversary special this fall, so I'll be going through those episodes over the next two months (hopefully, assuming nothing catastrophic happens)
US SUICIDE PREVENTION HOTLINE IS CHANGING ITS NUMBER
Taking effect July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will change from 800-273-8255 to the three digit code of 988. Especially with families and communities reeling from back to back tragedies, it is super important to share this information!
Repeat: Starting July 2022, the US Suicide Prevention Hotline will be 988
The Doctors as a Middle School Faculty (Revised):
First Doctor: Principal. Should have retired years ago. Working more out of routine than anything else. No longer remembers what year it is. So out of touch that it's actually kind of cute. Grouchy but the students love him.
Second Doctor: Vice Principal. Really nice to all the kids who come through the office, and always has candy and kind words for everyone, no matter why they're there. Knows all the best jokes.
Third Doctor: Math teacher. SUPER strict. Ex-military. Knows martial arts. Classes are absolutely silent. Students are terrified of him but they learn more from him than any other teacher.
Fourth Doctor: Art teacher. Most popular teacher in school because of how laid-back he is, but nobody ever learns anything. Cannot remember anyone's name. Grades based on his mood. Keeps secret snacks around his classroom.
Fifth Doctor: Gym teacher. Is really, really nice to compensate for how miserable his makes his students. Forces you to learn the rules of obscure sports from around the world. Slightly out of breath all the time. Smells of deodorant and minty toothpaste.
Sixth Doctor: School counsellor. Always smiling all the time. Wears neckties with Hawaiin shirts. Never stops smiling. Stands too close to you when he talks. Smiling in every picture. Bad breath. Smiles a lot.
Seventh Doctor: Janitor/Custodian/Groundskeeper. Obviously some kind of ancient elemtnal spirit masquerating as a human being, or at least that's what everyone believes. Mysterious and full of wisdom. Buys clothes and school supplies for the poor kids. Beautiful singing voice.
Eighth Doctor: Drama teacher. Was a hot young acting talent once upon a time but things didnt work out. Slightly depressed about it but is trying his best. Likes his students. Cries when he thinks no one is looking.
Ninth Doctor: History teacher. Rebellious, angry, political, and complains about having to teach state-mandated curriculum instead of the TRUTH. Attends protests and punches Nazis on the weekends. Fidgety. Always sticks up for his class. Doesn't like music.
Tenth Doctor: School librarian. Every student's first crush. Smarter than you but he's cool about it. Well-dressed. Loves comics and hip-hop music. Bad at maintaining discipline.
Eleventh Doctor: Chemistry teacher. Graduated like 3 years ago. NO idea what he's doing. Easily sidetracked during lectures. Volunteers to chaperone every school dance. Will almost certainly burn down the building by accident someday.
Twelfth Doctor: English teacher. Has seen. Some. Shit. The hipsters think he's god but nobody else can stand him. Plays guitar in a band. Assigns needlessly-complex literature analysis papers. Classroom smells like tobacco, leather, and dust.
Thirteenth Doctor: Office secretary. The one who really runs the place. Fearless and takes NO shit from the parents. Bullied the school board into guaranteeing free lunches for all. Buried a few bodies in her day. Mess with her students at your peril.
real talk, which doctor would you smoke a blunt with? what would even happen if a time lord smoked weed
i remember something from "Alien Bodies" (EDA) about how timelords can't really get drunk (and therefore probably can't get high), but fuck that. let's play in the space for a bit. *drugs, smoking, alcohol cw*
first doctor: he pretends to discourage drugs and alcohol around humans but then goes to other planets and is like "this is the snorgal ham plant and it does unthinkable things to your mind and body" before swallowing it whole
second doctor: he's a chatty drunk and a quiet smoker, he's so chill that you think he might be dead until he randomly says something like "jamie? how many hats do you think i can wear at once???" in a distressed voice
third doctor: he's done literally every single drug you can imagine for scientific purposes. this man has been crossfaded upside down and sideways. jon pertwee was out here lookin like this in the 70's and he had a villa in Ibiza. bitch smokes weed.
fourth doctor: he doesn't even need drugs, my mans is already sky high from the adrenaline rush of one eternal manic episode. he's never been sober in his life.
fifth doctor: look, i love him, but he'd be a total dad about it. he'd say some dad catchphrase like "no, no, you know me - i stay on my toes, i stay sharp" and then swing a cricket bat and break a priceless vase
sixth doctor: you pass him the blunt and he laughs. "what, that's all? no triglyceride tetrachrolonitrine 5? no Lady's Nightgown? no double helix paper?" he pulls this monstrosity out of his pocket.
seventh doctor: he's so fucking neurotic that you can't even get him to sit down. he tries but then he sees something shiny and goes to investigate. it was a cyberman. he commits some war crimes.
eighth doctor: legally not allowed to have any kind of stimulant or depressant, per Liv's orders. keep him away from the coffee and sweets. he hasn't slept in four months, thirteen days, nine hours, forty-five minutes, seven… eight… nine seconds. yes, he's counting.
shalka doctor: smokes HELLA kush, on god, but you already knew that.
war doctor AND ninth doctor: continues to smoke lethal amounts of weed and drink fruity cocktails to cope with specters of the past. jesus christ, that's his fifth strawberry daiquiri in twelve minutes. someone hide the white rum.
tenth doctor: he has girls' nights with donna where they hotbox venusian saunas and listen to katy perry. don't let the existential dread set in. don't let it set in. let's do some karaoke.
eleventh doctor:
twelfth doctor: you know, i've seen all of his episodes many times, and for the entire duration of his run, i never saw him stop vaping weed. must be the respiratory bypass. he's always spewing thick clouds and flipping everyone off with both hands. it's an interesting cinematic choice.
thirteenth doctor: her tardis literally looks like the inside of a disco ball and you think she's sober??? well, you'd be right, because she doesn't know how to find a dealer and she's too scared to ask. someone help her.
please please tell me which one you'd pick, i genuinely want to know. i think that every single Doctor is a disaster and smoking with any of them would result in my immediate demise, but if i had to choose, it would probably be twelve. let's go out blazing.
Here’s the deal--I really only post on this blog during January-February. I have a lot of other projects going on all the time, and that’s the time of year I carve out for this blog. I had meant to get through the 9th and 10th Doctors this year, but unfortunately, the last 2 months have been some of the most difficult and traumatic of my life. Lots of loss, lots of upheaval. I won’t get into details. But I just wanted to apologize to all of the new followers I’ve gotten over the past few months; I’m really happy and flattered that you guys like my posts and content and if I were in a better place these days I would be a lot more active, but I haven’t been, and I’m sorry if I’ve let anyone down. I don’t think I’ll be getting to the end of the 9th Doctor’s season this year. That may change; I may break format and come back to this blog later on once things have settled down in my life, but for right now I need to call it a year. Again, apologies for anyone who might feel like they followed me for nothing. If you decide to unfollow I won’t mind and won’t take it personally. Everybody please stay safe. -Andy
