OMGOSH!!!! I was terrified that I wouldn't like him, but wow! He's totally amazing! "New mouth, new rules." XD

Seriously? Am I the only one who watches Doctor Who? Maybe I should change the title so folks would realize I'm talking about that.

Hmm...I haven't watched it yet but I'm sadly suspicious that I really will dislike him.

After watching the season premier...first impressions: he's decent, but he's no David Tennant. I suspect his current costar will be making up for his shortcomings in episodes to come, though. I also strongly dislike any hint of a direction towards a more mature audience (not in general, but specifically for the Doctor Who TV show), but I guess it makes sense since (if I recall correctly) the writer for Torchwood is now authoring Doctor Who. Could be wrong, but I think I remember reading that somewhere.

Mature audiences?

While I'm well aware that it's far from raunchy, the occasional sexual comment/action (however mild or vague) doesn't sit well in regards to this show. Maybe I'm just being overly sensitive, but to me it's a classic kids/young adult show that should always remain just that.

Hmmm... I didn't catch anything on that line, but then if it's subtle enough I won't.

Well, in the season finale, you had an old lady grabbing the Doctor's butt, and in the season pilot, she refuses to look away from him as he's naked. While I chuckled at the comedic value of both, I really would rather see something like that in a different show. Like I said, far from raunchy and I'm probably being overly sensitive, but I just don't like it in Doctor Who. :(

Ah. That. I didn't see anything sexual about it. Just typical for British TV.
