I just saw the season finale of the new Doctor Who


What is the deal with making each new Doctor progressively younger? The Doctor and his companion should not look like bleeding great contemporaries! Argh!

Maybe there aren't enough older actors that have starred in previous RTD productions... Both Eccleston and Tenant have been leads for him...

...and you do get the fact that Russ like de boiz, right?

If you could recast Romana, would you pick Cher or Sarah Michelle Gellar?
Wrinkles or curves, my boy, wrinkles or curves?

Bah.

But Romana is supposed to be young. She's tooling around with the Doctor in order to get some experience.

That means I'd pick SMG over Cher. SMG is kinda skinny, though...

Kinda skinny? She looks up to eating one calorie.

Uhhh... right...

...and Lalla Ward finished second in an Oprah Weigh-alike contest?

Please... the K-9 prop weighed more than her!

Well, it's been a while since I saw any of the Romana eps, so I'd have to watch 'em again to compare.

Nothing wrong with skinny... especially with MY back...

There is a practical reason for my preference of petite women with small boobs!

Actually that's what I understood the Doctor's transformations were supposed to be. Each time he becomes a bit younger. It is like a reverse aging thing. Eventually he'll be a 12 year old.
