I love Doctor Who.
And I just watched the first episode of the sixth series, and man was it crazy. And Epic. And everything that Dr. Who is.
SPOILER ALERT: Who do you think the girl in the spacesuit is? Who is River Song?! :SPOILER ALERT!

EDIT: Check out my avatar! Doctor Who reference! Also, it's what I'd like to say to trolls...

I enjoy watching Doctor Who. Pity the 6th series still has another week to go before being released in Aus, as there is nothing worth watching on TV at the moment.

Love the Doctor.

Series 6 is off to a good start.

P.S. - great avatar.

Thanks.
What do you think will happen?

Most of the episodes are very cheesy but some are very good (water on mars and the weeping angels)

None are cheesy Han.
You saw TWO episodes. TWO episodes. And the CHEESY EPISODE you only saw like 5 MINUTES OF! Just 'cause you saw 5 mins of an episode doesn't make MOST of the episodes cheesy. And there are many better episodes than the Water on Mars. In fact, that's not one of the good ones. It's just scary. And you haven't even seen any weeping angels episodes!

They are getting quite complex too, plots running through series and multiple series, plots running backwards!, but with some episodes seeming like individual story's. Saw the new episode today, I can see I am going to have to watch it again after having seen the ones that come after it, to try and make sense of whatever is going on. Quite liked the aliens that make you forget you saw them.

Yes! Better mechanism than the weeping angels.

Oh I think we're in for another series-long mindfuck like series 5.
I think it is River Song in the spacesuit, but how that works out/pans out we'll just have to wait and see.
The Doctor obviously will not die. Not even 200 years in the future, and definitely not as Matt Smith playing the doctor. It's been established now that there is no limit on how many times he can regenerate, either.

I'd like to see something done with the doctor's daughter. That was left so wide open that everyone should expect to see her again. Just a question of 'when.'
Don't think it will be this series, but who knows.

Looking forward to what Neil Gaiman has written up for Episode 4.

Now that the master is "gone," do you think we'll see the return of Rani?

The writers will always find some way of bringing somebody like The Master back.

The master is not gone, he's not even a little bit dead, he is trapped in the time lock with the other timelords, temporarily not existing. He'll be back... maybe with a different face, but he'll be back. Plots have always been very liquid in this show, death, fictional or otherwise is not a barrier to any of the main characters.

I want John Simm back!
He didn't regenerate after all if he's in the time lock.
Also, about the statement about Series5 being a mindf**k, Series 5 was FAR from being that. It was predictable and SO much worse than the other seasons. It was still very good, but not very good for Dr. Who. The only mindf**king episodes are the last two. And the Dream Lord's episode could be considered that. Series 5 disappointed me, but Matt Smith saved it. Series 6 looks like it's going to fix everything wrong from Series 5.

My theory: Spacesuit girl = Amy Pond's unborn daughter = River Song

No he didn't regenerate, but he was sort of locked in combat so if he was mortally wounded, he could also have just been finished off? I'm sure he'll be back at some point, but not this season. I'd be interested to know how, if the Master comes back, he managed to fix himself from his not-entirely-successful resurrection. Maybe a regeneration would fix it, who knows.
Season 5 wasn't great all around, and I guess I really meant that last two episodes more than anything. There was heavy foreshadowing all throughout the season and still some loose ends to tie up this season. The Dream Lord episode didn't do much for me, personally.

I think your theory has something. Notice that both River Song and Amy had waves of nausea? Amy explained hers as pregnancy....if that's the case, then how about River? I hadn't thought about River being Amy's daughter....who's to say it isn't the other way around?

It could be that the sickness isn't anything to do with pregnancy and is just a side effect of the presence of The Silence.

River is from the 51st Century. It can't be the other way around.
