Likewise good sir, you took the words right out of my mouth.

I'm reserving judgment, as a lot of people are. I didn't know anything about David Tennant when he started (except he played the part of my uncle in a play no ones heard of, long story), or Chris Eccleston before him, and I know sod about this guy. We'll just have to wait and see until next year.

My thoughts exactly. wtf?! Does good hair make you a good actor?!

Yes. Yes we are. A person with such a douchy hairstyle could not play an eccentric character like the Doctor well.

I would guess he must be quite good. The idea of a new take on the doctor is cool as well. I would guess that none of the people we would want to be the doctor would touch it with a barge pole, on account of other commitments or just the fact that it could screw their established career.

This bloke has no career at all as for this moment. So he will either go on to greater things from this, or disappear from trace after a season when the writers kill him off as hes unpopular.

This is the internet. Intolerance didn't vanish, it just grew inside a generation of nerds.

Give him a haircut (or at least a fringe-cut/restyle (SOMETHING!)) and some thick glasses and he may pass muster :)

I knew nothing about Eccleston before he started on Doctor Who, and he was brilliant.
I knew nothing about Tennant before he started on Doctor Who, and he was brilliant.

I know nothing about this guy, but going by past form the people casting for this show know what the hell they're doing. I'll reserve judgement until I see him perform.

I'm sure he could be great but personally i think he is far too young for the role and his hair is bloody ridiculous. I can just hear My Chemical Romance playing out of the tardis and see the doctor wearing eyeliner and crying about how unfair life is.
