Doctor Who

Hello! Welcome back to the blog! This post will be about a British Sci-Fi show, Doctor Who. If you have not heard of the show it is a very popular, long running show about a Time Lord and their companion's adventures through time and space. The show has been running since November 1963. It was discontinued in 1989 and then revamped in 2005. It has an impressive 840 episodes making up over 36 seasons. You may be thinking how has a show been running for so long? That is one of the many things that I love about this show, the amount of versatility it has. The Doctor, the main character of the show is a time lord from the planet Gallifrey. This gives the show a great amount of variety because time lords regenerate when they are about to die, allowing the role to be played by many different people, keeping the show exciting (as if it already was not). The show is very exciting because the Doctor often takes the companion(s) to new and strange planets or places in the future and the past. As you watch more and more of the show (especially the revamp) you become increasingly involved in the characters and their complex plot lines and lives. The show is a good fit for pretty much everyone because it has something for everyone, action, history, romance, comedy, and sci-fi.

 I would recommend that you start this show from the first season of the revamp, do not get discouraged as the first episode is a little strange and has an interesting plot, as they are trying to get the show started back up again. Once you get past the first couple of episodes there is a lot to love with all the elements that I mentioned earlier coming into play. As the show continues the plot lines become more involved with people's timelines getting mixed up and going in opposite directions. I am very excited because the show is taking advantage of the versatility that is possible. With Capaldi stepping down from the role after 3 seasons, the new doctor, the 13th doctor, will be played for the first time by a female, Jodie Whittaker. While many people are upset with this decision, I am very excited because it gives a female the chance to be the strong lead as in this show they have almost always been the companion or a love interest. Seasons 1-10 (the whole revamp) are available on amazon prime video (included with prime if you have it). I hope that you are interested in this show and maybe you try it out to see if you like it.  

I have learned a lot about blogs this unit. I have learned that it is easy to create a blog and it can be about whatever you want. Blogs are important because they give people a great place to talk about whatever they want to talk about and to read about pretty much anything that someone else has probably written about. My favorite blog that one of my classmates has made is probably this one because it is really funny and how creative it is.
