Wow the new Who series looks pretty good from the random episodes and the 2nd seasion season finally I saw.

I am constantly amused who they to keep continuality they kept all the old props.

What is the second sentence there supposed to mean, Blayne?

My "incoherant teenager typing" translator may be busted, but I think he said he's impressed that they're using the original props for Dr Who.

I think the "who" is a how, and there are a couple of commas missing, so the sentance reads a bit like this:

Blayne: do you mean from the 'first' (2005) season? If so, why shouldn't they? It's essentially the same show. The fact that the Doctor is played by a different man is just a quirk.

Also, would it kill you to put the commas in? Please try! [Smile]

Well, they also kept all the old props from the original bajillion seasons. Spruced up a very little bit in some cases, but mostly the same.

What did Blayne say? I didn't get either sentence.

Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :

The gist of the first sentence is that the new Dr. Who series looks pretty good, given what he's seen.

Teshi's got it for the second sentence, I'm pretty sure--the "who" being intended as "how" helps the whole thing make a bit more sense.
