Everything I know about Doctor Who, I have learned from my three year old. He is obsessed. He watches all incarnations of The Doctor on hulu and has a fair figure collection. He really loves the 5 inch figures so if anyone knows where to get them cheap let me know. They don't have to be in perfect condition considering they're going to be played with by a 3 year old (4 in May). I am quite jealous of your son's collection. I have some of the figures as well. Yeah he loves them. He have a ton of the micro figures and a few of the 3.75 figures as well but he loves the 5 inch figures. I hear they will likely not be making many more of them so I'm just trying to get as many key characters as possible without breaking the bank. We've done well so far but need a few more. Rory...a modern cyberman...Leela...12th doctor (but I don't want to buy a 50 dollar set for that), The Master (though we have the deteriorated version) and I'm sure there are more that I'm forgetting but yeah we play Doctor Who a lot.

Bumping this because I'm finally starting to catch up. Nearly halfway done with series 8 right now. Onto the John Smith The Janitor episode. Should be fun.

How have I not found this thread before?! I've loved Doctor Who ever since I first saw Genesis of the Daleks on VHS back in 2002 at the age of 7. I finally finished my DVD collection a few months back, until they release The Underwater Menace that is! Favourite Doctor is Hartnell, closely followed by Troughton and Pertwee.

@blaze12341 I am now all caught up now and I want to talk about it.
Considering I figured out who Missy was before it was spoiled for me months before I finally watched it, the play up to the finale was good.
EVENTUALLY they're gonna have to come up with new long term (not the Boneless) villains though. Recycling the Cybermen, Master and Dalek is quite meh after a while. I'm imagining after this arc we'll get the Dalek again; Clara's whole reason for being and all that.
Though admittedly I would LOVE to see Capaldi's Doctor deal with the Weeping Angels. That would be so unbelievably good.

That would be so unbelievably good. Missy was a fun character. Made me not be pissed about the whole gender swap thing. Also, the show has had the same villains for 50 damn years. I really don't expect them to bring in a main on really. Though Moffat loves to surprise us. Speaking of which, unless I'm mistaken, I think I read somewhere that Moffat wanted to be done with the Angels. I'm not quite sure if I'm upset about that or not. Would hate to have them overplayed like the Cybermen, Daleks, and Mastuh. One villain I really want to see make a return is the Vashta Nerada (the eating darkness from the library.)

The Vashta would be too "Hey didn't we have something similar?" with the Boneless, fans would be dumb and complain. The Angels are AMAZING though. Especially if we could get a backstory on them. Not just survival horror, but find out the who, what, where, when and why of the Angels would be great. I still want a female doctor too. I think Moffatt would do it.

A backstory would actually be pretty interesting. Though I think some of the appeal is the mystery behind them. Depends on how they would handle it I guess. I don't really care what gender the Doctor is, just as long as it's written interestingly and the actor/actress can pull it off.

The mystery is fabulous but they killed off two main characters and have been in a handful of arcs now. It's time to for us SOMETHING on them. Considering it's all but confirmed Coleman is only staying one more season, what kind of character would you look for in a new Companion?

Also with the 10th anniversary episode coming up this season, maybe we get River/Amy/Rory at some point in the episode since it looks like it's just Smith and Capaldi, Tennant and Eccleston (again) won't be involved. Meh.

I want Barrowman to become the Doctor with that Whovian "anything can happen" logic that's given us a couple of doctors now. Would be epic.

Not sure what to think, I don't believe I was familar with his character. Though more Tennant is never a bad thing, especially with Marvel. Apparently he was considered for the voice of Rocket Raccoon.

Yeah, Netflix show, which means he's bound to be the best character ever.
