Not bad on unpopular opinions. I think we'd probably agree more on popular ones. Probably. LOL!
Our biggest difference is probably that I tend to be very Ten/Rose focused.
I know most are in this fandom. And I DO love Ten/Rose like LOTS! I just shipped Rose/Nine first, loved Eccleston first and am currently rewatch-reviewing series one. Honestly, my love for Ten/Rose may increase even more to almost match Nine/Rose when I do the rewatch of their episodes.
I love the Doctor/Rose relationship overall, and there's something so perfect and magical about the way they fell in love over the course of S1, but it was like Ten and Rose took up camp in my head and haven't ever left. And I love their chemistry, even if I think Chris and Billie had a more obvious UST-y vibe between them. David and Billie made their physical closeness seem so real, which I loved.
I can certainly understand this.
I could have watched them bounce around hugging for seasons and seasons.
You and me both. You and me both.
And... I do despise the blue suit and have probably even written some long drawn-out meta about it. Rose is my favourite companion, probably always will be, as much as I love Donna and Martha.
Heh, I've read some of that meta, LOL! You REALLY hate it. I adore Rose so much, and Billie's now my favorite actor from the show, but Donna just owns my soul. I mean, it's not Who, it's everything. She's up there in like the top three of every character ever created in any medium.
-I agree about Tennant's S4 hair, overall. I liked it in Planet of the Ood, though!
Thank you! Someone else doesn't love the S4 hair. (Although, we mightily disagree on PotO, I loved that episode.)
Actually, my fangirl appreciation for DT took a bit of a hit in S4. I don't really know what's up with that. He just seemed so tired and old for most of it. They should probably feed him more down in Cardiff.
He really, really did look tired and older. He did. (Speaking of, it's another reason I don't think he'll re-sign for series five. I know you think it more likely, but I just don't more and more, with interviews, comments, offhand stuff I've read from RTD, Moffat and Tennant himself. Mainly though, I really don't think he likes the Doctor as envisioned by Moffat and I don't think he's all that fond of the fact that Moffat basically pisses all over Rose and the Doctor/Rose relationship when Tennant clearly has no problem with Rose or their relationship. I keep going back to how he played the Doctor in SotL/FotD -- there was not one iota of warmth, attraction, interest, etc. in how he responded to River Song. And you know that Moffat intended that, but David DID NOT play it that way at all. I just don't think his vision of the Doctor -- and he's an old school Doctor Who fan -- jibes with Moffat's at all. So yeah, that along with a bunch of other small reasons, makes me believe (and I desperately hope that I'm right) that he won't re-sign.
I'm still holding out hope for another Who spin-off with Ten II, Rose, alt-universe Donna (and now) Tosh, and the four of them can go around saving the Earth (mostly the UK) on a weekly basis. Ahem.)
-Doctor/Rose/Jack really does nothing for me. Well, not many ships besides D/R do much for me in DW. :D
Heh.
-I, too, would like Moffat the hell away from my show. I just... don't like his version of the Doctor, is what it comes down to. And that's probably going to be a problem when he's running it.
Erm, yeah, see above.
-I also will never tire of Daleks. I just love them.
