The Doctor In The TARDIS

Who else thinks that the constant theme of every companion kissing, or getting kissed by, the Doctor is getting old. I haven't seen many of the classics but I hear it all started with 8. He clearly had some sort of connection with the companion in that movie so that's not bad. And I can deal with 9s reason. Rose's life was in danger. But when Cassandra kissed the 10th Doctor in "New Earth" I grew suspicious. I started thinking the writers attitudes to it were "They always wanna see the companion kiss the Doctor" which is, at best, only half true. Next we had the "genetic transfer" story with Martha. And it started getting completely ridiculous with Donna's kiss. By the Time Matts Doctor hit our screens, I didn't even need to speculate. I *knew* there would be a kiss. And yet again, another ridiculous story. Amy had *just* told the doctor she's engaged and then she tries to make a move on him. I really like Amy's character and wasn't pleased they made her that big of a... Anyyywayyyy. I just think it's too old.  :(


Side note: I am in no way biased. I didn't get my crush on 10 till torwards the end of season 2. I mean, *now* I'm biased of course  :P But I had these thoughts before I got my crush on DT.

I moved this out of the Water Cooler and into the General DW Discussion forum :D

Ok :D

And for the record, Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much kissing for my liking! :P

I dont really mind the kissing too much. Most times it has a reason, even if it is a stupid one. The Amy thing was a bit uch for my liking though

The rule seems to be one snog per season.  I'm hoping for an Eleven/River version next season!  ;D

I think most people are waiting for the Doctor/Rory one from what I have read ;D

No no no no no no!! :P River can't kiss the Doctor... she just... can't.... lol :D

 

Nooooo!!!   :o


Oh yes yes yes!!!!  Why not?  He has to kiss his bride!  ;D  ;D

*Pouts* I guess you have a point. Grumble grumble. :P

Totally over all the kissing. I wouldnt mind so much if it didnt seem like they were sticking it in there for the sake of it, but it always comes off like they are just having a kissing scene for the sake of it

I don't like kissing in real life so you can imagine how I feel about it on Doctor Who (which is way more important than real life). Whenever they think about a kissing scene they should instead reflect that a big space battle is what the fans (i.e. me) want. Even a little space battle would do - i'm sure the Mill could knock a quick one up (unlike the Doctor narf narf).

I am fine with the kissing when there is a valid reason for it.  But one person's 'valid' is another person's 'stupid'.  I felt that the reason 9 kissed Rose was valid.  10 kissing Martha was not and it made my eyes roll - genetic transfer - whatever!  Also the whole Amy and 11 thing - didn't like it.  And I think that if there is a Doctor/River kiss I won't like that either but I guess it will ultimately depend on the situation.

Yes...all this kissing....it's a nonsense isn't it? The next thing you know they'll be having sex in the TARDIS :o Disgraceful >:( So unbritish >:(

Whatever happened to a nice cup of tea?? >:(

 ::)  ;)

I really didnt like the kiss with Amy, but other than that I wouldnt say it has been too excessive from what I have seen so far.

The thing that bothered me with the Amy kiss was how out of the blue it was. It just didnt make any sense at all. A lot of fans have theorised that it was down to her being in an emotional state after coming so close to death, but I dont buy that at all.

Yea I dont think many people really liked the Amy kissing scene. It will apparantly be explained in one of the extras on the S5 DVD though

Yea, one of the 'Meanwhile In The TARDIS' mini scenes will take place directly after that scene when they run into the TARDIS and will deal with it a bit more from what Ive read

I think people need to prepare themselves for the one between River and the Doctor because it's going to happen  ;D :P  ;)

No way! I wont allow it.

Yay, bring it!!  ;D 

Yeah, but will it be a long-lost-lover type kiss or a see-your-aunt-at-Christmas type kiss?

The first one I hope!  The second one doesn't count.

I also hope we find out more about why she carries handcuffs.  ;)

*tries not to throw up*

Please, dear gods, no.

Finally someone talking sense. No River kiss! jk.... maybe... lol :P

I love River, but the last thing I want to see is her and the Doctor having a pash

Exactly how I feel. :)

I feel the same way BR.

Totally agree with this! (assuming that I am getting what 'pash' means)

Why not with River?

And if not River then who?  Remember the one snog per season rule - who's the lucky gal next season?

No offense to those who like River, but it would just be kinda weird.

I also love River but I want their relationship to be purely platonic. I can handle the flirting but no smooches thank you

ME!  I'm the lucky gal!  Didn't I tell all of you that I will be making a guest appearance while they are filming in the US?  :P  A girl can dream, right??

Mwahaa.......I suspect it isn't going to matter what anyone thinks.....mwahaa  ;D

Perhaps Matt will get a cold sore for the duration of filming and resolve the issue  :P

Ha ha, you'll have to get in line behind me.  I'm the designated stunt-kisser should they ever need one with Eleven.  ;D

I don't want to see a River/Doctor or a Rory/Doctor.... or an Amy/Doctor....

Its just wrong! The Doc shouldn't kiss people!

I mean, like Jack/Doc + Rose in S1 was fine and (The Cassandra)Rose kissing Doc in New Earth was fine....but thats it :)

Oh and 8 kissing Grace *blergh* Totally wrong and Americanisation Ew!

I don't understand - if the Doc kissing people is wrong, then why was the kiss with Rose in S1 fine?  The Doctor initiated that one.  He also initiated the kiss with what's-her-name in that Titanic in Space Christmas episode. 

Anyway, not saying it has to be him that starts it, or even romantic.  If she's meeting him for the first time maybe she wants to manipulate him for some reason and tries the hallucinogenic lipstick on him.   

He kissed Rose to transfer the Time Vortex into him, which caused his re-generation into 10. 

He kisses Astrid 'cause of the way she died, at least that's how I viewed it.

The Astrid one was stupid, What?! It was!

I think that might be the only way, you know with an early meet + lipstick, but it just feels wrong. They play their roles disconnected from each other, I know thats The Docs reaction to the unknown.... *shrugs*

I may be wrong but I imagine any initiating of kisses between River or Amy with the Doctor will be their doing not his. ;)

His allure is hardly his fault :P

I know... unlike Smith and Jones... that was stupid :P

A lot of people comment on his looks..... I can understand where they are coming from


I feel now is where I explain, I don't understand attraction and the lure of kissing etc :) :P

Well, that was the excuse, but was that kiss really necessary?  It looked to me like the Vortex transferred via their eyes. 


Yep, I agree.  Amy's had her shot, now it's River's turn.   ;)


Oh I know, he's too cute NOT to kiss!  ;D
