Sad news...
by dubel_07 on Comments
So these past 3 years I've been watching on TV one of the greatest and (the) longest running TV shows of all time, Dr. Who. I was the guy that would watch Dr. Who instead of the reality TV and ABC, CBS, and NBC programming when the greats like CSI and LOST and Heroes and such were on (and are still on) and I grew fond of David Tennent. I fell in love with his acting (in a completely platonic way) and of his love for playing the charismatic and eccentric Doctor of Gallefrey. I watched every Friday night as he used his wits and charm to take on the evil Dalek's, the tyrannical Cybermen, and even kill Satan. I watched as the Doctor took on the Master (again) and watched as Captain Jack Harkness died (again and again [he's immortal it is revealed, sorry if you didn't know]) and the Doctor made a funny joke about it. I fell in love with the Doctor (again, in a completely platonic way). It was announced at this past British National Television Awards that David Tennant will not be returning to his role. I was devastated. I cannot even begin to tell you how deeply saddened that he will not return. All of those adventures that we'd shared, the Doctor's love for Rose and her "death", K9's triumphant return with Sara Jane Smith, are now going to be shared with another Doctor; this isn't necessarily a bad thing, though. This has happened to me before when Christopher Eccleston left his role. This won't change anything in my opinion about one of my TV and acting heroes but deep in my heart, nobody will ever replace David Tennant as science-fiction's hero. We'll miss you Mr. Tennant and wish you good luck in your future endevoirs.
