I am cert...I am sure you'll enjoy the re-watch. I am certainly enjoying mine. As I think I explained on FB, I started off with the Jon Pertwee merely to catch up on the episodes that had not been shown on the Horror Channel, so I am yet to go back to the very start (though I have seen "Unearthly Child" twice recently and am quite glad not to have to watch that again when I get round to the First Doc).<br /><br />My "main" problem with the current season is that I no longer look forward to each new episode. In fact, I rarely watch them when first broadcast. To me, this season has seemed, well, "routine" for want of a better word. I often find my mind wandering after 10 or 20 minutes.<br /><br />I don't like being a "Moffat-knocker" but I feel it is time for a new Head Writer/Editor and a new bunch of writers too. Moffat has had a good run, has masterminded or written some great episodes and moments, but the series seems stagnant now. It needs a new approach, perhaps even a new format or more varied formats. The idea of having two-parters throughout most of this season was well-intentioned, but it wasn't a great success. Why not have a four-parter of shorter episodes every now and then, or even one feature-length when a story justifies it? I suppose this would drive BBC schedulers mad!<br /><br />I don't know how you intend to do your re-watch, but I found that watching an entire adventure in one go made me rather aware of the padding (especially with 6-parters). Of course, no one adventure was intended to be watched in this way so I am now trying to have a break between each episode despite the strong temptation to go straight onto the next part when the current part reaches its cliff-hanger!<br /><br />Nicky KayNickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15812040161295739973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11095653.post-81104172632592672832015-02-27T06:25:59.552-08:002015-02-27T06:25:59.552-08:00What made a huge difference with my own black dog ...What made a huge difference with my own black dog was taking 1200mg EPA (eicosapentanoic acid, found in omega 3 oils) daily. Two months of that, and it was like I was a new person. Worth a try - it's a food supplement, not a drug, and even if it doesn't help the depression it's great for healthy hair, skin, nails and who knows what else!

Mute isn't bad, but it's rather unfulfilling… it can't mute the bad stuff without also muting the good. It's living, but not exactly Having A Life (whatever that means).<br /><br />This year, due a small but significant and long-awaited change in circumstances, I'll start turning up the volume again, in small increments, and I'll have support where it's needed.<br /><br />I hope your approach works. I hope mine does too.JeFurryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17475872710774554606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11095653.post-5253036124466804502015-01-31T03:26:08.783-08:002015-01-31T03:26:08.783-08:00Good luck! :DGood luck! :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11095653.post-81327838499320437612014-12-07T12:13:41.280-08:002014-12-07T12:13:41.280-08:00Oh behalf of all the Scalies, I'm offended by ...Oh behalf of all the Scalies, I'm offended by this post.Laxmi Aruzilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00908291509674793775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11095653.post-10715645083076171692014-12-05T08:28:31.864-08:002014-12-05T08:28:31.864-08:00*applause*

And I don't want an annoying Doctor. However, I recognize that this is a very talented actor and not limited to soulless corporate types or political weasels. And I appreciate that they've gone older (they could hardly have gone younger without in vitro). When Matt Smith took over, I approached his first episode with excited trepidation.

Surely everyone was saying 'okay we just about got away with the maggots, and I think we can pull off the giant spiders - but an apatosaurus?' With the dinosaurs being quite so incidental to the overall plot, it's have been better if London hadn't been threatened by the Chewitts monster.<br /><br />And I've never forgiven Jon Pertwee for blowing up a triceratops.
