First trailer for Dr. Who Series 5 is available. Geronimo?? Really?
I used to catch the older Dr. Who shows on occasion on PBS. My tastes in British TV always leaned more toward the comedies like Monty Python and Black Adder so the older Dr. Who series never really captured me. That remained the case until I rediscovered The Doctor, and his penultimate incarnation in David Tennant. The Tennant years were glorious. Full of action, adventure, heart break and the cheeky fun that came to symbolize Dr. Who for millions of fans.
On January 2, 2010, however, the David Tennant era came to a close with the series finale, "The End of Time Part 2". Of course, this ended months ago in the UK, as the US airings of Dr Who being months behind the original release, but still, finally, the David Tennant era is past. Replacing the man that made me love The Doctor is a 26 year old actor named Matt Smith. Matt takes the reins of the TARDIS this year as the 11th Doctor, with all new adventures, all new companions, and an all new catch phrase. The David Tennant Dr. was always fond of calling everything and everyone beautiful, and brilliant, and always yelling "Allons-y" as he charged headfirst into battle, or mischief.
However, with a new Doctor comes a new catch phrase, one that I think may take some getting used to... Check out the trailer, the FIRST trailer for the 11th Doctor, and decide for yourself:

I KNOW I've seen this story before. Tell me if you have too...

It's one thing to be open minded, it's another thing to be blindly devoted to a show that is a reincarnation of something you loved in the 80s. This seems to apply to a LOT of NBCs lineup... It's either Law and Order, or a "revisioned" version of a previous show, or a direct rip of a foreign show. Really... with The Office, they at least didn't make a point that it was a copy of a popular British Show. With Kath and Kim they just gave up and said "Hey, the Australians wrote a great show, we're out of ideas, so we're Americanizing it!" read more »
