    I know, that was my point. Why not make something up completely new that possibly enriches the entire 11 incarnations? Constantly going back to the time war eventually will run up against diminishing returns.

    Either way, I'm glad they cast a good actor for whatever they do.

    yeah but they can easily do that after this 50th...there are so many things that can make new stories about the Doctor and that universe. which can make for more episodes, series, and doctor regens.

    John Hurt as the Doctor (whether 0, 8, 8.5, or 12) has huge potential, no doubt. While I'm rather fascinated by the concept of a Zeroeth Doctor (not least of which is the never really explained relationship of "grandfather" and "granddaughter" in Hartnell's era), I'm more inclined to Doctor 8. Why not 8.5? Because I ardently refuse to accept the butchered presentation of the Doctor in the sole McGann TV movie (no fault of McGann's, only of a poorly conceived and non-canon storyline--the Doctor is not half-human as that movie claimed, for one), and that aside, simply because the 8th Doctor was only seen once, and never seen to regenerate. That opens huge swirling vortices of timey-whimey stuff to unravel, which of course includes the Time War.

    Filling out the character of Eight with Hurt in the role would clarify so much! It needs to be carefully written (Neil Gaiman rather that Steve Moffat), but it could be amazing. Consider the circumstances from a marketing perspective: Doctor Who ran uninterrupted from 1963 to 1989 and was cancelled. There was little hope of a revival, and the ill-conceived McGann movie seemed to further doom DW than revitalize it. But in 2005, with Eccleston's Doctor for one season, it came back. That's a gap of 16 years since McCoy's Doctor departed, and sensibly enough the BBC and Moffat have focused on the latter day Doctors, only briefly referencing the first seven if at all. But this past season (which has been uneven at best, and while she's likeable enough, Jenna-Louise Coleman falls well short of Karen Gillan) with the 50th anniversary coming up, there have been more references to the earlier Doctors. So it's time to really bring everything around.

    Side note: my favorite current Doctor Who gripe: dude should be about twice as old as he claims. Baker's Doctor was over 750, so do the math, Smith's Doctor should be upwards of 2000 or more.

    Ha ha! Jessica is a poop -- ha ha ha! She, obviously, isn't a great actress. It was and is more her looks.
    But attraction, physical attraction, is subjective.

    attraction is subjective, you are right...but just because some one is mega pretty...knowing that they have smarts and initiative and humor ( all around great personality ) make a person have more...and I mean A LOT more appeal.

    Beauty is only skin deep, being stupid is thick! LMAO

    Oh my god I am already anxiously awaiting November 23rd and the episode aired yesterday. From what I have read, John Hurt is either a Future doctor, or the true 9th Doctor, the one responsible for the genocide of the Time Lords. What he says "what I did I did for peace and sanity," would seem to lend itself to that. What I've also heard that really has me exicted is that Matt Smith will be teaming up with David Tennant and Rose Tyler to stop John Hurt. Whatever happens, I just want it to happen already. Maybe I'll try and make a TARDIS so I can go to the future and watch it. Also, what the hell did River mean when she said "Spoilers?" So many fucking questions.
