What? What? What?

I think the Doctor Who fandom is about to spontaneously combust re: that new spoiler.

Me? Cautiously optimistic? Maybe? I really don't know!

EDIT: Since I know a couple of people who're trying to remain unspoiled on this one - fair warning! Comments contain spoilers!

Fandom = scary.

Happy Myranda-land in which one does not worry about who is going to be angry = friendly place.

I don't know how I feel about the whole thing. To say that it would have to be handled delicately would be a gross understatement, but it's not beyond the realm of possibility to turn out decently, dare I say well? And this isn't just in regards to what happens while Ten's got three companions to hang around with (which is huge, to say the least. Hell, I was worried about how Donna and Martha would interact, but throwing Rose into the mix (as is, alas, often the case in DW land) makes the whole situation a lot more complicated and a lot more likely to explode. *sigh*) - it's also what happens after. Will he ditch Martha and Donna and go traveling with Rose again? Will Rose go back to Pete's World? Will Martha leave again? How about Donna, what will she want?

Whatever happens is going to say a Great Deal about how the writers view these characters and, similarly, how I view the writers. *grin* Cause I get the be judgmental like that. *cheer*

Anywho... *gets popcorn* Bring it on, fandom. We've got a looong few months ahead of us and I'm ready to enjoy the chaos. *also gets jelly beans, cause when doesn't one need jelly beans*

*giggles uncontrollably at icon of FALLING PIANO because now I have made that association and will never let it go* :D

Also: *joins you in Happy Myranda-land* To coin a phrase... Hooray!

but it's not beyond the realm of possibility to turn out decently, dare I say well?

Well, I just get this picture in my head of all of them teaming up and working together and being friends and fighting crime and I just get all happy. :D It could work out very well.

it's also what happens after.

What I'd really like, more than anything (well, except for all the other stuff I'd like more), is to have real, genuine closure for the Doctor (so there will be a wee bit less of the angsting). And even more closure for Rose, because I think she's a bit too awesome to be pining after the Doctor forever.

Of course, I'll probably go back and watch S2 episodes now and totally change my mind. ;)

True dat. *steals your jelly beans*
