Doctor Who & Sarah-Jane Smith Adventures

[beccatoria]

...is it bad that I watched the Invasion of Bane holiday special of the Sarah-Jane Smith Adventures and liked it more than most of the recent Doctor Who episodes I've been watching? (K-9 notwithstanding...)

I really wish I were more excited about DW *slaps self* because it's great fun. I think it's David Tennant's fault. I was reasonably excited when I heard he'd be the 10th Doctor. I was disappointed Christopher Eccelston was leaving, but at least they got a good actor to replace him. I could really see Tennant being a great 4th or 7th style Doctor. And he is a good actor. But he doesn't act on DW. He just...yells and acts "zany". Feh. I think last season my lingering interest in Rose and what they might actually do with her story kept me watching. I quite liked Martha (especially the way she treats the Doctor in the few episodes I've seen), but I never really got a chance to get particularly interested as my apathy set in and I keep forgetting to watch.

I've heard good things about the most recent episodes, though. Perhaps I'll check that out.

Meanwhile *points at work and laughs with increasing hysteria*

I've...I've decided to find it funny.

*weeps*

No clue, but I saw him in the previews and thought he might be able to help salvage the season. I also Derek Jacobi who I've always liked as an actor. No clue what part he'll be playing or when...oh, just thought to check imdb. He pops up in Ep 11, in two weeks, along with Jack. Woo!

Jack is 10, 11, and 12. From what I heard last. Definitely the last 2 though.

imbd has him for 11,12, and 13, but no information for 10 so he could be in as many as four.

Ah, I miscounted then. Thought there were 12 eps this season. :) It's 11, 12 and 13 then.

I bet his appearance in 13 is just a short snippet of him being picked up in Cardiff.

Whcih I've already seen because they showed it on Johnathan Ross when he was interviewing the guy.

Jack's last scene on Torchwood involved him hearing the TARDIS, smiling, and then disappearing. So, yeah, I'm assuming the Doctor will drop him off back home.
