So who watched the Day of the Doctor, and what did you think ? I totally didn't expect the ending at all, it really threw me off.

You might want to stay away from any Dr. Who sites, or facebook till then. It's going to be flooded with spoilers. That was the 2nd last time we got to see Matt Smith, and then he is gone.

Actually most DW pages tell people to keep their traps shut.

Without giving away to much, let's just say that you will get to see 3 Tardis at the same time. You will have to watch it to see how, and why. =)

I've been on FB all day and believe it or not, I've not seen a single spoiler. I'm glad the fans are being respectful. :3

Just saw it and yeah it was good not great but good. Tho good is not a bad thing
Uh I kind of feel like all the "war doctor" stuff was kind of meant for Christopher Eccleston's Doctor but we all know he wont do the role again. It just did. Not saying John hurt was bad at all.
Also Zygons. I'd of been a bit angry if they used a "nu who" monster in something like this.

Im not going to spoil it for my fellow whovians on here that havent seen it yet.
But! All im gonna say is, this is a story arch that I have waited YEARS to know all about. So thats all im gonna say, and at the end of it, I was just speechless on how good it was. My first Doctor was Tom Baker......yeah....... So so good!!

I think it solved the regeneration problem.

Caught it, saw it, enjoyed it. Which was good, given that I've been burned out on the series since the last few episodes. No, it was a solid celebration of a show that's lasted for half of a century (with a few breaks here and there) and supremely watchable.
But, the question is has anyone else seen the accompanying video made by a few of the Classic age-actors?
The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot. If you've not seen the aniversary special, go watch that first, this provides a great little easter egg for that - along with a great many laughs and nods to the series' long history. This one scene, where they attempt to call up Mr. Baker, pretty much had me giggling for hours afterward.

This is how I feel. I like a lot of other Doctor's but I connected most with him. Maybe it was how awkward and funny he was. I loved how he always tried to live up to human standards of cool even if he wasn't quite sure what they were. I'm going to miss him terribly.

Oh yes, I loved that. It's hilarious! The actors all make fun of themselves in the process of the story. From memory it was written by Peter Davidson, and he's certainly not afraid to laugh at himself. And there were so many cameos. Sooo sooo many. And the John Barrowman stuff was a scream. It's really worth watching.
The last conversation in the Day of the Doctor did suggest that other old Doctors may appear in the future, as imaginary characters for him to discuss his path with. I'm hopeful that means we may see more of them in the show in the next season or two.
