In Moffat We Trust

June 27th, 2010 in Blogging

This is the mantra of Doctor Who fanboys and fangirls for the year.

Season 5 has just ended, and I still can’t come to grips with the whirlwind of a season that we were treated to. Doctor Who is for me THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN ON TELEVISION.

I’m not saying that I’m a die-hard hardcore true-blooded Who girl, only having been acquainted with the series when they revived it in 2005. So in essence, I cannot relate to Who fans making references to anyone before the 9th doctor.

Having been a big fangirl of the tenth doctor, David Tennant, and the EP Russel T. Davies, any Who fan can understand the anxiety felt for the 2010 run. Tennant was quitting, Davies was leaving, and they’re casting some 27-year-old that looked like a mango and seemed to be their answer to Edward fang-lovin’ tweeners out there.

Thank Moffat I was wrong!

Season 5 has ended, and I haven’t had my fill of the new Doctor and his new companion. The season seemed to have poured all their budget towards quality actors, excellent directors, and superb writers. We didn’t get to leave Planet Earth as much, but this season centered so much on humanity and the Doctor being re-acquainted with it. It was breathtaking.

Here’s the Doctor Who S05 teaser. What a ride that was.

One thing though, I expect a PROPER DALEK NEXT YEAR! None of those stupid candy-colored Power Ranger trash bins.

So is M&M’s sponsoring the Daleks, is that it?
