David Tennant is leaving the series? Say it isn't so! Just when you get used to a new Dr. Who, they go and mess with our emotions by killing off the doctor, or rather, he regenerates so they can replace the actor and go on with the show.
A lot of us were very disappointed by the loss of the intense and mysterious Dr. #9 played by Christopher Eccleston. It was a very dramatic season finale in 2005 when Rose nearly sacrifices her life for his and he, in turn, died for her. But minutes later, thanks to regeneration, the doctor is well again, albeit with a new face and body. I stomped around for a while, unable to watch this new actor take over. How could he ever compare?
Eventually I came to appreciate David Tennant's new doc. His stylish slim suits paired with Converse sneakers and disheveled hair defined him as a hipper version of the character. He wasn't as tough as Eccleston but he still had the energy level to pull off the iconic doctor.
I'm not sure that we are about to lose Dr. #10 but knowing this series, I wouldn't be surprised. I caught this new of the latest doctor departure at syfyportal.com . You can read more about the rumors here. Yes, I am such a nerd for rumor-mongering about science fiction shows.
