The Daily Mail questions whether Doctor Who's loss of viewers is caused my scary monsters in suits (really, why the fuck are they wearing greasy suits) or because of the overthought complicated plot.
"As Doctor Who begins its latest series with disappointing viewing figures, however, some fans are asking if the plotlines are too scary and too complex for its largely family audience."
Well if you've seen the movies Memento, The Timetraveller's Wife, and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, apparently you can explain whats going on to the average fan when it comes to the "timey-wimey"ness of this series.
Perhaps instead of asking whether its too scary or too complicated, one should ask if people aren't watching because its called DOCTOR WHO and not SOME GUY NAMED THE DOCTOR DRIVES AROUND AMY, RORY AND RIVER SHOW.
Seriously, enough with the companions. Stupid secrets between characters are taking more focus away from the main character. Is a time-travelling fucking alien not interesting anymore? ZOMG NO NEEDZ MOAR DRAMA.
The Doctor is not a cab driver.

Things that make no fucking sense.
So SFX did a little survey a month ago.
Who would make the best first female Doctor Who? A whopping majority (15%) off ass-rapers chose Helena Bonham Carter (and Judi Dench only got 3% thank god.)
I suddenly remembered that in this scene.
Perhaps the big push is the US for Doctor Who (that makes no fucking sense now because it's basiclly in the middle of a 2 year snoozefest arc) correlates to this girl becoming a US spinoff for Doctor WhU.S.A.
Because we all know how good British dramas cross over to the US, you know like Life on Mars.

But yet we've never been to the moon huh... I'm sure this will be explained with an off the cuff remark in Season 8 or something.

What a way to re-introduce Doctor Who in Amerca..
Hello New American Viewers! You're halfway in the middle of a two year abortion that Steven Moffat has envisioned for us all.
Pretty cool huh. Liked all the timey wimey stuff? Its makes quite a nice diversion from all of the plot holes and recycled ideas from an unimaginative writing and direction staff, which I will make godlike strides in the coming days and weeks to point out to you.
