    Well, I can't say I'm terribly excited about the news, but I hope for the best. As long as the character is consistent and good, I'll be happy.

    Very good choice for such a risky casting move. She's demonstrated a strong mastery of both drama and comedy which will be useful for the role. I can't wait to see where they go with this. I only hope that if the new show runners take a turn for the worse that fans looking for a reason to blame the new doctor won't use that against her.

    It is going to be a high risk season with new cast and new writers all at once. They are basically starting over with a new pilot at this point.

    As far as I'm concerned the people upset at it being a woman are no different than those who hated Matt Smith because he was a nobody and too young and Capaldi was too old and not attractive enough.

    Whittaker is young and beautiful. So the easiest thing to attack is what is - or isn't - between her legs.

    It's just that the climate right now is geared towards making everything an -ism so critiquing Whittaker is sexism right now when in reality it's just the normal cycle of every new Doctor ever.

    Really? The number one complaint I heard about him was he looked "too emo".

    I think that falls in the "too young" category lol

    I think this is going to be fun. Just watching the Doctor realizing she's a woman now will be great. :)

    So excited for the Christmas special and Jodie Whittaker's doctor. What a great decision, especially since Peter Capaldi's doctor was such a disappointment. He did a wonderful job and is a magnetic actor, but Moffat had no idea how to write his version of the doctor. He was so boring, whimpy, and not clever. I almost cried during the 13th doctor reveal video. Go Jodie.
