Doctor Who Cartoon Announced!

Absolutely! And not like the 1960's Peter Cushing ones either.

@lee he's going to change after the last of the specials at the end of the year, or maybe during the first episode of the next series as I've seen pictures of Matt Smith wearing Tennant's suite, so it's unclear as to when he's going to change just yet.

love that picture lee!

Matt does look a bit young, but I'll give him a chance, I mean I disliked both the 8th and 9th doctors originally but they grew on me. I loved the 8th doctor audio plays.

Yeah, I've got the BBC counter on my desktop theAnswer, the next special looks amazing!
And i didn't mind the last animated miniseries, it was a bit simplistic but then again it is aimed at little kids. However I loved the Scream of the Shakla, and funnily enough I learned recently that Tennant did some voice over work for that, and that was way before he became the doctor.

This will be his forth year as doctor who, which is about the average time that most actors played the Doctor. I think his main reason for leaving is he's afraid of typecasting. He's an enormously talented actor so he just wants to stretch out career wise. He did an amazing job as hamlet and he just snagged his own sitcom on nbc so I think he might just be ready to explode onto the scene. Only time will tell.


Wow I just sounded like a huge gushing fanboy...oh well

lol emo bangs.

I wouldn't say bad persay, he's got great writers so if the stories are good I imagine that his appearance will grow on us over time. I was personally hooping for a return to an older looking doctor but I'm willing to give him a chance.

joshw24...ewww... emo bangs... haha

i am going to have to check it out this dr who... loganoneil loves him. But 12, 13 that is so confusing.

omg LEEE too funny! :D (the car picture & bobbing heads)

Sorry LEE thats is indeed the new Doctor Who, Matt Smith! Like thwhtGuardian, I'll give the guy a chance but I really dont like the thought of him as the Doctor!!!



thwhtGuardian: Wow, he's less emo looking but I still think he looks like an awful choice for the part...I mean, he looks like a nerdy maths teacher!

yeah, I mostly watched it online, but I think it was on bbc america. Also I heard that scifi had picked up the next season...and get this some episodes might be aired here first because of interruptions from world cup broadcasting.

lol yeah, I could almost see that being a quip by the doctor.
I've heard that he's supposed to act much older than he appears and that when he does no one takes him seriously. I could see that being very interesting. I'm just glad he's not acting like a teenager.

Doctor #10 (David Tennant) will be regenerating (leaving the show) at the end of the year. As John Simm has signed on to return as the Master (powers-that-be, PLEASE don't kill off the character AGAIN!) in the 'mini-sode' series finale, I can only imagine that he has SOMETHING to do with Tennant's demise (a 'tit-for-tat', maybe?). The next season will start off fresh with Doctor #11 (Matt Smith, seen above).

The SciFi Channel was running the good Doctor up until the last season. Since then, BBC America has been running them. But, as Guardian has pointed out, if you can't wait for the delay (America usually gets them months after they've been originally broadcast), just go to YouTube. If you can stand watching an episode in 10 minute chunks, just search the tite the day after the UK broadcast (this also works for pretty much any other UK show you'd like to see - 'Torchwood', The Sarah Jane Adventures', etc). The next DW mini-sode up (again as Guardian pointed out in his previous thread) is called 'The Waters of Mars'.

I think it's kinda' interesting that Georgia Moffett has been cast as a companion in the cartoon. She's had/has a rather sorted past with 'Doctor Who'. First off, she is, or at least was (not sure about their current status) dating current Doctor David Tennant. Secondly, this isn't her first appearance in relation to the show - in addition to playing Cassie, she was also 'Jenny', the Doctor's cloned daughter in the episode (aptly named) 'The Doctor's Daughter'. And thirdly, she's the actual daughter of Peter Davison (aka Doctor #5 - anyone remember the cricket outfit?)!

MsKyle08: I think its a fair guess that this guy wont reach anywhere near Baker's standard...I know we havent seen him in the show yet but just look at him, lol! He looks like a reject from Twilight or something! :)

Guys, check out my Alpha Flight Fan Cast under "Fan Fic"!

I liked Christoper Eccleston's Dr. Who. I was disappointed that he only had one season. Right after Tom Baker, Eccleston to me was the second best.

Hopefully, the show will do crossover episodes with Eccleston, Tennant and Smith.

And Donna (Tate) did really grow on me, she ended up being one of my favorite. I just came bring myself to put her ahead of Sarah Jane. She's the number one companion in my book.

Dudes, would you bloody give the new guy a chance. He might be an awesome Doctor and you guys are already hating on him. Actually give him a [frick]ing chance first and then when he has been the Doctor for a few episodes, then judge him. But I will agree with you on one thing, he does look like an emo. And he reminds me way too much of that faggot from Twilight! Matt better be good or I will be kicking his ass for ruining my favourite TV show!

Im so gonna miss David Tennant, he has been awesom since the start as the Doctor but in a way he was only starting to settle into the role in the last year or so!

But I am liking the Doctor's upcoming new companion though:

mmmmmmm

the Doctor can only regenerate 12 times only one regeneration left . but if I'm not mistaken Tennet did regenerate and he regenerated back to himself or did he stop the process if he didn't then he himself became the 11th Doctor and the the new Doctor is the 12th thus no more regenerations left ..... confused? Naw it's Doctor Who fellas
