The series started in 1963 and is noted for among other
things, its reincarnations or reintegration's if you will, of now 12 different
Doctors over the years. From his battling creatures such as Cybermen, Ice
Warriors, Sontaran's and many others, one is of which is among primary concerns
is The Dalek's. We have seen various
forms of social commentary come about in this long standing, fan favorite series.
This year we see the regeneration of a new Doctor, the twelfth played by Peter
Capaldi. We will see how he gets along with his traveling partner this season, Jenna
Coleman who plays Clara Oswald.
Capaldi takes over the role of the Doctor previously played by Matt Smith. There has been some controversy surrounding the new Doctor and series amongst British and some American audiences. Is the new Doctor too scary for children? Will Capaldi's age be a factor, he is the oldest Doctor since the shows incorporation back in 1963?
Over the years the show has been a wonderful tool to address much of the worlds
events in a real science fiction kind of way. Of course, being a person whose
Christian faith is important to him, I also suspect the series will continue on
in the way it has for the previous 50+ years, finding ways to get those
watching it to think beyond their expectations, to explore the faith verses
science question as it has many years prior, and at times, will cause its viewers
to think beyond themselves. Stay tuned as reviews of some of the episodes of
this wonderful series are to follow in the near future, all along the while,
casting a watchful eye as to how the new Doctor, Peter Capaldi handles the role
and lives up to the hype of being, The Doctor.
