Doctor Who - From Earth to Gallifrey and Back

Whether you're British, German, Australian, Canadian, or Singaporean, we all fall under the same title. Whovians.

Let's face it, Doctor Who is more than just a show, it's an incredible fantasy world delicately crafted over the past 50 years, as the show celebrates its Golden Jubilee this November. With millions of fans all over the world dedicated to the longest running sci-fi television show in history, it's safe to say the Doctor has won over more than just the hearts of his many companions throughout the years.

Who has been shooting in American, for the deeply anticipated Series 7 (which airs on BBC America September 1st) and has won over many more North American fans in the process. I mean really, who could say no to Matt Smith, with his British accent and his fantastic bone structure? Matt Smith (commonly known as 'Eleven,' as he is the Eleventh actor to play the role of The Doctor) is on his third season as Mr. Gallifrey himself, getting close to David Tennant's fourty-four episode run. It's probably safe to say there is a regeneration in the near future, and hearts are sure to be breaking for the parting of The Ponds at the end of Series 7 that Steven Moffat has in store for us.

 I do not see this television show disappearing as the TARDIS does anytime soon, the timeless classic will forever hold a place in the hearts of British, and all other Whovians alike.

Make sure to tune into BBC America/SPACE on September 1st in order to catch the series premier: Asylum of the Daleks - you can watch the trailer here on BBC's YouTube channel.

Happy time traveling everyone!
