You know I only watched the the adventure s of the 9th and 10th doctors respetively and it was okay however the Doctor himself sometimes grate me. Especially the 7th and 9th they seem to come off as the most cruel in my eyes, I don't know the Doctor just seems larger than life to me. Sure, he helps people because he wants to but often times I feel sorry for the poor schmoe who crosses even if they did deserve it except for maybe the Daleks and Davros. He kind comes as a cosmic jerk and self righteous sometimes, he knows essentailly 'everything' but at the same time I fear for those who cross him or become friends with him. Lets face it, what did to the Sontrains and in the Time War was unbelievable.
I may not like that much but at the same time, you expect a more from your heroes. The Doctor is an escapist fantasy and the seires is an escapist show, we don't watch for realism just the Doctor's adventures. After pouring this down I don't know if I should get into the series but what do you think, should I give it a chance?
