Look, I'm gonna be honest with you: I'm not especially psyched about writing this post. There have been episodes in the past that I haven't been fond of (I'm looking at you, Planet of Giants), but even with the worst of them I haven't been insulted by them. Disappointed? Sure. But never insulted. Until now.

So let's get this over with.

And here we are. After three hundred and eighty seven days on the Time Treadmill, I have finally arrived in the twenty first century with NuWho. It hardly seems possible. For me it was only two days ago that I said goodbye to the classic series, but those forty eight hours represent a sixteen-year jump from 1989 to 2005. It's a whole new world. But before I dove into the Ninth Doctor, I decided to spend an extra seven minutes with the Eighth Doctor.

So let's talk about them both.
