-lrb- minor FIRST SEASON SPOILER , no SECOND SEASON SPOILERS -rrb- I love the first season . creative , witty , easy on the sci-fus -lrb- make it a bit more accessible to my partner -rrb- , intelligent , funny , touching . and the doctor and Rose be full of heart . so when they change doctor at the end , I be a bit shocked , and wonder how I could love a new doctor as much . the NEW DOCTOR Hard to believe , but David Tenant be even more amazing than the previous doctor . as exuberant as Christopher Eccleston be as the ninth doctor , David Tenant have a even wider range of act emotion . in particular , he be really good with darker feeling ; you can watch he face change as he feeling make a transition , and he can do crazy thing with he eye to convey all kind of feeling . I really be not too sure about David Tenant at first - of course , he be mostly asleep when we first see he , and it all change when he wake up . rose I think the chemistry between the tenth doctor and Rose be even better , both on-screen , and off-screen -lrb- in the excellent Confidential background clip on the sixth dvd , which MUST be see to really get a deeper understanding of all that go into make these show -rrb- . there be more to be say about Rose , but no spoiler here . I can say that she character developer over two season from timid shop girl through do-what-must-be-done to take-charge-and-give-orders-to-save-the-day . story line the story be bigger . first , there be story arc that span multiple episode , mainly around Rose and she family and friend , and they have a neat conclusion that tie thing together in a unexpected way . second , there be a few two-part episode which you think be finish , only one of the two-part episode actually break into a later two-part episode , make it really a four-part one . we be among the many who have not see the original series . fortunately , the new series introduce we to important figure like the Daleks and the Cybermen . for I , the height of the season , or one height of the season anyway , be when these two very stylized creature meet , with hilarious result . there be also a dramatic height of the season in the same two-part story , but no spoiler here . I think the episode at the beginning of the season start off a bit slower and less impressive than the first season , but as the season get go , the story get better - much better . in this season we have what must be some of the most classic episode of the whole series . hard to say , since we have not start season 3 yet . last thing to mention be Torchwood . in season 1 , we meet Captain Jack Harkness and a few actor who later go on to play member of he team on Torchwood . we see Torchwood first , so they really stand out . in season 2 , we meet one more future Torchwood cast member . more to the point , the word `` Torchwood '' be throw out repeatedly in several episode , the most important of which be when Queen Elizabeth establish the Torchwood Institute . later in the series , we see what Torchwood have become in current day London , though it be nothing at all like the branch in Cardiff that be head up by Captain Jack . BOTTOM LINE this be brilliant tv . original writing , fine acting , appeal actor . a blend of drama , humor , sci-fus , and camp . tremendously inventive in the physical production of challenging sequence -lrb- you have to see episode-by-episode background on how they make they on the sixth dvd to really appreciate what go into this work -rrb- .
