What should you do when all your favorite characters die?

This summer I was faced with a crisis. This summer should be known as the Debacle of Death!

Between May 1st through July 31, not one, not two but a total of NINE of my favorites characters died from impalement, drowning, spells, a knife and one awful snake from my fandoms of Spider-man, Lost, Pirates and Harry Potter. By the time I finished Harry Potter, I swore I’d never love again.

However, the Fandom Gods had other plans for me. I fell hard for the title character of a show I’d watched casually for over a year: Dr. Who.

It happened so gradually that I didn’t notice what had gone from a show that I could miss if my schedule didn’t work out or I forgot to a show that I now watch every single time that it’s on, both on SciFi and BBC America. I also love Torchwood which is the spin-off.

Now what makes Dr. Who and Captain Jack Harkness, star of Torchwood, so different from my previous favorite characters?

THEY CAN’T DIE!!!

Ever…

(Cackles manically.)

That’s my new plan; I should only fall in love with immortal characters who will never let me down.



Aren't they cute?

I really need to stay home on a saturday to watch Dr Who! I remember the very old eps when I was little, the music freaked me out, but with such a looker now lol
My sister is hooked on the Dr, and apparently at her school for the change of class bell they are playing the Dr Who theme! how brilliant!

Hehe, when they used to have the old ones late at night on PBS, I used to roll my eyes at this weird guy in a scarf and effects that were on par with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, but I loved the Fox movie and I'd watch anything associated with Steven Moffatt! The rest...well, the rest is explained above...

That's so cool about playing the theme!!
