I nearly went mad last night with glee. No, not because Heroes has gotten better. (My review, if you are interested.) But because it won't be on again FOR TWO WEEKS. That means I won't be a basket case next Monday trying to tamp down the crazy election-fever AND review this show.

VACATION!

Yeah, I'm not sorry to hear it, honestly. It's time. This is a different show than the Classic Who; you could have Tom Baker be on for seven years when you just had half-hour six-parters every so often. Thirteen (plus a special) one-hour episodes a year is a brutal schedule to keep. I think this production is burning people out really fast. I mean, it makes sense--no one wants to be typecast--but it sounds like everyone who finishes the series is exhausted by it.

And I've never been a huge Tennant-Doctor fan, so I am more than ready to move on. I am a wee bit sad to lose another Doctor, though, just on principle.

I'm glad to see him go too. It is definitely time to have a less manic doctor :-P Now that Russell's out, that might happen (he LURVED Tennant :-P) Now that I think about it, he reminds me of the Futurama robot version of Hawkeye from MASH. Flip a switch and he's sarcastically funny, flip it again, and he's all sad and broody. Hahahahaha.

That's Tennant in a nutshell--"I'm tortured!" wait "I'm happy!" wait "What?"

It's everywhere. Doctor Who finally has an American audience; therefore, it has "arrived;" therefore, it is news.
