The opening show I’ll be looking at is something I’ve been keeping up with since it was rebooted, Doctor Who! There have been a lot of ups and downs with this show, whether it involved new actors, new heads of production, or new guys in rubber suits pretending to be aliens. I consider Doctor Who to be one of the most important cultural icons of all time, as the character’s legacy has endured for over fifty years in numerous forms. This is a show that has undergone countless revisions, interpretations and is still the defining cult icon today. Recently, the show was even capable of doing what was thought to be impossible: Breaking through to large American audiences. Matt Smith’s Doctor came at a time when fan communities online could spread the Doctor Gospel as far as possible, especially with social sites such as Tumblr. Today, we have a new version of the Doctor, this time played by Peter Capaldi. Can this new series maintain the widespread of the series?
