Peter's doctor reminds me of a classic who doctor brought into the modern format. If you've ever wondered what a Pertwee or a Baker might be in a single hour episode this gives you a really good feel for it. I know it's different for some people but I've really enjoyed his doctor.

To me that's exactly what he is, and it's also what I really needed to see after Matt Smith. Smith occasionally had some good moments, but I think he deviated from the formula a bit too much at times as well, at least for my own tastes. Peter Capaldi represents a great balance. He's a return to the old form in many ways, while still having his guitar and enough other new little touches that it makes his incarnation unique and interesting, without going too far away from who the Doctor fundamentally is.

Peter has quickly become my favorite Doctor. It's so sad to see him go.

mp27reviews I feel the same way. I love Peter Capaldi's doctor and will be sad to see him leave.

I love Peter's Doctor and how much he clearly enjoys the role. I really hope he stays on for a long time!

Gina DiGregorio I'm currently hoping for more than three seasons like we had with Tennant and Smith (who were great). I would be ok also with the lead writer changing: Moffat was good and gave us some great stories, but I enjoy the constant change of the show and I would love to see what another writer would do with the Twelfth doctor.

MarioRossiAncora Agreed. Let him meet or break Tom Baker's record, I say!

[@MarioRossiAncora]

Gina DiGregorio Those were different times, I don't know if we'll ever have such a long lasting doctor.

[@OldTelivisionRocks]

MarioRossiAncora I think we should because the short amount of time is making it a very jerky story line.

MarioRossiAncora The now-standard 3 years is too short (it was too short for Davidson). Tom Baker's seven was a bit too much. Five. I want to see a 5-year tenure.

What a distinguished man and talented actor Peter Capaldi is! A truly great ambassador for Doctor Who! I know the character of the Doctor and the legacy of the show itself will continue to be in safe hands with Peter being the fanboy that he is! #doctorwho #series9 (aka #series35 ) #bbc #bbc1 #bbcamerica #petercapaldi #jennacoleman #september19 #soexcited #cantwait

Yes he doesnt just defeat the alien and move on but we at the moment are only seeing like 1 dalek episode per series. Id like a few episodes that have a little dalek in them or maybe a 2parter!
