This question makes we wish that the New Who Doctors traveled with more companions at once. That seems to be much more common in Classic Who. The characters I’m choosing are Donna and Wilf Mostly just because I love Wilf, and I was going to pick him for the “favorite companion’s family member” category that…

Day 9: Two Characters Who Have Never Met, But Should (New Who Edition)
Well, since Kat cheated on this, I will too. I’m breaking the no repeat rule because I’m going to talk about these two later on. The two characters that I think should meet are Jack Harkness and River Song Can you imagine the flirting? Then they would run off and fly around the universe with…
Day 8: Favorite Quote (New Who Edition)
I’m surprised at how quickly I settled on a favorite quote. There’s one that stands out as being the most meaningful to me, though it doesn’t seem to be a super popular quote. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Peter Capaldi’s amazing speech from “The Zygon Inversion.” That would probably get my vote…
Day 7: Favorite TARDIS Interior (New Who Edition)
This is an easy one for me. My favorite TARDIS interior is definitely the most recent one. I love the metallic color scheme and the little circles of blue lights. I love the geometric design. I especially love the turn-y things with Gallifreyan writing. And bookshelves! At the time, I really liked the 10th…
Day 6: Favorite Time Period (New Who Edition)
This is one item on the list that I came up with, and I meant it as “favorite time period that they have traveled to” instead of, say, a certain year of the show. Sorry for any ambiguity there. The Doctor certainly seems to spend a lot of time on Earth in whatever the current…
Day 5: Funniest Character (New Who Edition)
I had a hard time with this one. Every character that I came up with was one I wanted to use later in the challenge. I begrudgingly agree with Kat that it would be unfair to choose the Doctor himself, though I think that most of the time he’s the one with the funniest lines….
Day 4: Favorite Alien Race (New Who Edition)
I’m really bummed that Hulu and Netflix have gotten rid of all their Doctor Who episodes. I never bought any DVDs or downloads because I (perhaps foolishly) thought I could always count on Hulu. It would make this challenge a lot easier if I could go back and watch old episodes to check on things….
Day 3: Your First Doctor (New Who Edition)
Nothing to decide for this one, yay! I am planning a separate post about how I got interested in Doctor Who so I’ll keep this short for now. The first episode I saw was Voyage of the Damned, with David Tennant as the 10th doctor. Yep, that’s my first doctor. Kat is continually baffled by…
Day 2: Favorite Male Companion (New Who Edition)
For me, this brings up the issue of how ‘companion’ is defined. If it includes everyone who has ever traveled in the Tardis, then the list of companions is quite long. If we limit it to characters who traveled with the Doctor for a significant amount of time, that narrows it down a bit. The…
Day One: Favorite Female Companion (New Who Edition)
Can I just mention that I hate favorites? I have been struggling for days to figure out who to pick for this one. Whose idea was it to do a project where you have to pick favorites for 30 days? (I think it was mine.) Thanks to Kat for reminding me that “favorite” and “best”…
