Doctor Who: Day 4

Day 04 – Your Favourite Doctor:
This is probably the easiest question on here. Now don't get me wrong, I like all the Doctors (that I have seen). I love Tom Baker (4), Patrick Troughton (2), and Christopher Eccleston (9); and I absolutely adore Matt Smith (11, to my everlasting surprise!) But the Doctor that will forever be "My Doctor", my favourite and the one who captured my heart and imagination and made me fall in love with the show will always be 10, David Tennant. Sure he can get a bit mopey and emo at times, but he's rather entitled with what RTD put him through. David Tennant is a phenomenal actor and his skill is what made 10 so wonderful. The mercurial mood shifts, the bounce and life and energy, the manic grin, the depths of grief, his incredibly expressive face and eyes, the speed at which he can deliver rambling and complicated lines, even the costume choices. I mean, I enjoyed the first series but I don't think I was really truly hooked till the speech on the Sycorax ship "The great big threating button that must never ever ever be pressed under any circumstances." And I think I love ten even from "New teeth...that's weird." The fanfic authoress I ganked this off of summarized it well:
"...it was Ten--smirky and vulnerable and commanding all in one package--that sold me on the show. I was in love with him from almost his very first moment. Yes, we had our differences, he and I. I disagreed with many of his decisions, and I grew weary of his moping, and what he most needed was a good talking-to by SOMEONE (and I would have volunteered), but I almost feel like that just adds dimension to my affection for him. I find him bloody infuriating, and I know he'll grin in delight at some completely ridiculous thing and I'll forgive him. ~earlgreytea68 of Live Journal

That, right there, it absolutely it. Well... that and, how can any Whovian resist the Doctor who is played by the biggest geekiest fanboy of the lot of us.

Deep, beautifully acted melancholy, alien, and/or powerful Ten:


and some good old happy/funny Ten:
