Its latest incarnations have been nothing short of fantastic. The scripts have been tight, the acting has been wonderful but best of all, this show has been like fine caviar, absolutely delicious in small doses, leaving you always wanting more. Far superior in every sense to the older Doctors(with due reverence),\u00a0 these shows have let us move from beyond the cutesy and hokey into mainstream Sci Fi with a vengeance. One of the things that has been so wonderful is one of the writers\u2019 better tricks, setting up an action many episodes before and then bringing it back to conclusion. I have been honestly stunned by some of their amazing plot tricks and as a consumer and viewer, more that satisfied.<!--more-->Here\u2019s my anger with them; Character continuity. Look in the course of 4 seasons we have has 2 Doctors and 3 companions, the last one (Donna), a complete failure as far as I am concerned. Today word hit the streets that a THIRD DOCTOR, a Mr. Matt Smith will take the helm of the Tardis for the next full season, and I AM PISSED OFF.\u00a0 For God\u2019s sake, is there something so difficult about a 13 show schedule that you cannot keep the cast intact? What the hell ever happened to brand loyalty?<\/p>\n<p>When Dick York was replaced by Dick Sargent on Bewitched, it was because HE HAD FREAKIN DIED!. And it was terrible, but nobody\u2019s fault. While we are on the subject of Dick Sargent, who the hell IS Matt Smith? I already hate him\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026. oh crap, you know I\u2019m gonna watch. BUT DAMNIT, I WILL BE PISSED!<\/p>\n<p>For more information on My bile and anger:<\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.telegraph.co.uk\/news\/newstopics\/celebritynews\/4124591\/Doctor-Who-Introducing-Matt-Smith-the-26-year-old-Time-Lord.html<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-official sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-twitter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/share\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-url=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=204\" data-text=\"Why is Doctor Who Pissing Me Off?\"  >Tweet<\/a><\/li><li class=\"share-facebook\"><div class=\"fb-share-button\" data-href=\"http:\/\/scifisaturdaynight.com\/?p=204\" data-layout=\"button_count\"><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-pinterest\"><div class=\"pinterest_button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fscifisaturdaynight.com%2F%3Fp%3D204&#038;media=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fc49ccc512d4f99a9a863cc00915cb240%3Fs%3D96%26d%3Dmm%26r%3Dpg&#038;description=Why%20is%20Doctor%20Who%20Pissing%20Me%20Off%3F\" data-pin-do=\"buttonPin\" data-pin-config=\"beside\"><img src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/images\/pidgets\/pinit_fg_en_rect_gray_20.png\" \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li class=\"share-end\"><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Right off the bat, let me make one thing clear, I love this show.
