First the Doctor was a character on TV, then the Doctor was a character on TV. Huge change. :rolleyes:

So any change made to any character in fiction doesn't matter? Why enjoy art, then?

I could read your post, but as it's fundamentally no different from mine (i.e. they are both text in a database) I can safely assume you agree with me.

I was rereading the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy the other day and it struck me just how Doctor Who it was from the word go. The Heart of Gold is basically a TARDIS, the Sub-Etha Sens-O-Matic and the Thumb together make a sonic screwdriver, and the scenes in book 3 of Zaphod moping around his infinitely powerful ship with infinite possibilities and nowhere to go read pretty much like how the Doctor might act if they had a few more personality problems.

That would make a lot of sense.

I've always held that the later in the cycle it is, the bigger a bang you get.

Season 3 Capaldi was exactly what I would have wanted him to be all along.

I mean, c'mon, the Grand Moff green-lit the "Moon is a giant egg" story

hey now. that's not entirely fair.

it was a giant egg that gained in mass as it got closer to hatching, like eggs do

don't undersell it

Moon is an egg is great and I can only assume that the people who hate it must be watching a very different show

"Moon is an egg" is a fine plot centerpiece, it's every single bit of the execution.

Kill the Moon is about how when eggs are about to hatch, they get really heavy and covered in spiders
