Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ha. The BBC links to a gallery of Doctor looks throughout the years and 9's caption says "at last it was possible to dress like the Doctor and plausibly pass it off as coincidence."

Very relieved about the Hair, but they look like they're 12. I'm getting old.

I had exactly the same thought, ita. Despite the bow tie for instant gravitas.

Serial to link to a Guardian commentary on the picture:

(And you know things must be getting serious when there are entire blog articles about a single photograph).

Some hilarious speculation - and an actual spoiler - in the comments. Timey-wimey indeed.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I wish I was more enthusiastic about the new Doctor, but I think his youth is affecting me as well.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I can't get past how horse-face he is, and the costume (mostly the rolled pant cuffs), but I'm sure I wouldn't have been keen on pics of CE or DT if I hadn't just started watching the show cold. Big ears, rat faced... horse faced...

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, I didn't think I'd be able to deal with Tennant, either, for different reasons obviously. And there was that whole period where I insisted I wasn't infatuated with Cap'n Jack. So given that the franchise appears to have me, for better and for worse, I probably will adore the young'un shortly, as soon as he becomes the good Doctor. It has Moffat going for it at any rate.

But yeah, young.

Our wings are not tired.

Liese is me on every point.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Dollhouse:

I saw the 13th ep already and I was pretty disappointed with this episode. Did anyone have a similar reaction? I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I found the beginning of the ep disorienting and then when I figured what was going on, I thought it was way too much exposition.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Also Dollhouse:

Alexis Denisof is going to be in a few episodes of season 2, and "possibly" Summer Glau: [link]

That link is spoilery for Episode 13 (the one that didn't air).

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

leN, I liked the 13th episode but now I have even less interest in watching season 2. Because now we know where it's all going; I don't need to see that. I want to see what happens after it all goes to hell. And after Megan and Zone get where they're going.
