Maybe it was one of those patented "perception filters," but after watching last night's excellent season premiere of Doctor Who, I'm suddenly no longer pining for David Tennant and Catherine Tate as our titular hero and his trusty companion, and instead, totally jazzed to see what Matt Smith and Karen Gillan will bring to the respective roles. It helped, of course, that "The Eleventh Hour" was a tense and funny bit of sci-fi, with the regenerated Doctor trying to hunt down an escaped, intergalactic prisoner before an armed fleet of Atraxi detonated Earth in a scorched-planet strategy to execute him.
