So last night was a fandom night....Watched the new Who and then finished off the 4400 (wow, was s4 a bland season or what? Blech).



Okay, so in all likelihood, the Doctor will stay Tennant (if the contract negotiations w/ BBC go well - I read they're offering 100,000 a show). But, this is Who. And you know, while I love 10 and all, Who is about regnerations. I didn't appreciate 9 till he was gone and I started wishing I could see 9 and Martha (because I just really think they're a better match). And as much as I love 10, I can't help thinking, what next? (and yes, I know, we're under the gun here technically due to the supposed "regeneration" limitation -- which I suppose is why they needed to create a daughter for him so badly if they ever want to resurrect the franchise again).

Still, I can't help but wonder, who would be the next Doctor? And since I haven't ever seen old Who, what I have to suggest may be scandalous --- then again, I think he could pull of an english accent if required:

Alan Tudyk.

And hey, the doctor would get to be slightly ginger, right?? Plus, i can imagine him being all upset at the lost height. - Errr, not, only an inch difference. Seriously, the man works with giants all the time and gives the impression of being short.... (Actually, I started this by thinking that Nathan Fillion is out of work, but well, I dunno, just too classically pretty for the role, methinks....though that would bring all new kinks to Doctor/Jack).

Anyone with me here? And come on, Tudyk definitely has the acting chops for it. :)

Who else would make an interesting 11? Comment

There's a very, very strong rumour that Robert Carlyle is in the frame....

But I love the idea of Alan Tudyk :D

Hmm, don't know Carlyle that well, but I'll trust the powers of Who.

And really, AT seems like a fantastic option if they ever decide to go american w/ the casting. :)

Alan Tudyk as the next Doctor? I would do the Dance of Joy. Not a virtual *dance of joy*, but an actual, live-action Dance of Joy. Possibly in front of other people.

Just popping in to say S4 of the 4400 was disappointing. I started off the season being depressed the show had been cancelled, but was fine with it by the end. Oh well.

Love Alan Tudyk, but don't watch Who do I have no clue.
