Who is excited? I AM!
Also I would like to share some of my photos from my recent cosplay. I would love it if someone could possibly photoshop a Tardis into one of them, I'll repay you ^^ (And I'll give you the image without a watermark on it of course to work with)

Haha love the photos!! Only a couple of hours to go! Aargh!!!!
I was kinda put off on how Clara and 12 interacted and even just how they behaved by themselves. She was being particularly vain and bitchy and he was being particularly douchebaggy. Or am I the only one that got those vibes?
I'm not taking much of it at face value. He just regenerated so their relationship is going to be unstable right now. At her vain points, I think that was Moffat taking jabs at the new Whovians were only in it for the younger doctors.
It wasn't like Rose was 100% accepting of the 10th doctor right at first either.
Those shoes are fabulous! o: Great pictures. I could possibly photoshop a TARDIS into one (or more) of them, if you wanted. c:
Anyway, I liked this episode. I wasn't blown away, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I wasn't 100% sold on Capaldi at the beginning, but towards the end, I really started to love him. I think he's going to be pretty great.
I actually want to watch next week's episode, which hasn't been true for me for about two seasons now, so I guess that means it was a good episode, lol.
I feel like I still don't know what Capaldi's Doctor is going to be like, but it always takes a few episodes and I have faith.
There are three identical threads like this. What happened?
Great point! Rose and Clara have been the only companions thus far (in New Who) that have witnessed a regeneration.
REALLY? I'd love you so much 8D
And the same! I think he's going to give new fans a taste of Classic Who.
Of course, the first few episodes are always new territory for the new Doctor.
Really? There was something that went wrong when I tried to create this one. Hm. -goes to take care of it-
Pinging you to this thread because I accidentally made three threads at once. I apologize!
Anyways, I think Capaldi is going to beat Eccleston. Nine used to be my favorite modern Doctor, but I really liked Twelve. Time will tell, I guess.
Yeah! c: Just send me the picture(s) you want and tell me where you want the TARDIS and I should have them done by the end of tomorrow. I would do them today, but Idk when I'm going to be home. ^-^
I think I like Capaldi's Doctor. I like him a lot.
I'm still not sure how I feel about Vastra, Jenny and Strax. :/

Yes, me too! Do you watch Classic Who? I think he's more similar to classic Doctors because he does less running and more thinking. Definitely a positive.
Also, I liked how the episode was longer and it paced itself, instead of rushing the end like a lot of 11th Doctor episodes did (coughcoughTHEPOWEROFTHREEcough). I hope the other episodes are like this too.

...also, there's a theory going around that Missy (the name of the woman at the end) is short for Mistress. And what's Mistress the feminine form of? Master. Plus the garden is a little shaped like a TARDIS console room.
I WANT A FEMALE MASTER
How can you not be sure that interspecies crimefighting ninja lesbians aren't awesome? ;]
I get a rather Three-and-Six-ish feel from Capaldi so far, though like I said he's still got to settle a bit.

I'm so torn about whether I want Missy to turn out to be the Master -- on the one hand, I love the Master, I love the dynamic with the Doctor, and having a female Master would be so cool, but on the other I find it kind of sketchy that immediately she's talking about the Doctor like a love interest and like, ugh, can we stop having every female character wanting to jump the Doctor's bones please and thank. (Though a shipper part of me is like "DOCTOR/MASTER MIGHT BE CANON OMG". Assuming you don't count "Scream of the Shalka" where it already was.)
I just watched the episode, maybe it's because I've set my expectations sky high but I was really disappointed :(
Peter's acting was a bit forced, I thought he was going to bring sexy back with a taste of the classic Dr. who (pre-2005 edition) it could have been the script working against him though, that episode was way too flimsy, too much going on without enough time dedicated to each sub-plot/event... shame really, I've waited for so long ;__;
[SPOILER]
Anyone else suspect that Missy is the one and only impossible girl? it would explain why she knew the term and used it in the plot. also they're both brunettes (likes to keep life simple)

I haven't seen Scream of the Shalka, I had no idea they were canon as a pair. Isn't that the unfinished episode? So I guess that episode isn't really canon... :(.
I'm also iffy about the whole "boyfriend" part. I hope she wasn't serious. But since she already established that she likes the Doctor, it doesn't matter whether she's the Master or not because either way we'll have another female who wants to be the Doctor's lover.
YES HE IS LIKE THREE. I knew since he was announced as the Doctor that he would be like Three. I Thought his outfit was going to be like Three's with less frills, and I was kind of right. As for Six, I'm not a fan of him (Colin Baker is a great actor, don't get me wrong, it's just the writing really). I guess I didn't really get to know him much. He strangled Peri and then I was done with him, I couldn't bring myself to finish an episode of him. If you like Six, could you recommend a good episode for me to watch?
:D I like the idea of them, but I feel like the execution isn't very . . . polished? I don't know. They have had some great moments, but there are also a lot of moments where their lines and the humor seem more like something fans would come up with. Amusing, but it seems a little off for the actual canon. I'm sorry I'm not explaining myself very well!
And that Missy theory. More conflicted feels! D:

I take back what I said about the garden being TARDIS-like. The same garden was used in The Girl Who Waited and the fountain that looked like a TARDIS console is in that too. Must be a coincidence.
oh shit. That would be awesome. I've been wondering about the Master's next appearance...
how about Curse of Fatal Death? Gotta love it when a show writes and films its own crackfic. Lulz.
Mischievous Diadem available in my CW shop!
Oh my gosh, the Curse of Fatal Death was hilarious. curse of fatal death
Except that was the other way around. Instead of the Master being the girl, it was the Doctor.
