Doctor Who (2005)
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Thought it was finally time to check out what the hype for this new reboot was about. It started off interesting, and each of the new doctors would grow on you, with time. Different companions certainly stood out as better than others. However, I have to say the most recent incarnation has been a let down and seriously dropped my expectations of the show. So much time is spent trying to be PC that the core of the character seems lost. Additionally, where standardly there is only one companion with the occasional addition (usually a boyfriend or significant other for short periods), we now have basically an entire family blundering around even going off to find situations on their own and now try to solve it, including with their own psychic papers? Nearly surprised they don't each have their own sonic screwdrivers now, too. Not really sure what to expect with where this one is headed currently, but interest is waning at the moment.
