Luke - Good points. I agree that Waters of Mars and The End of Time had some real weak spots. I like Tennant's 20 minute goodbye to everyone, but the Timelord stuff just seemed forced.
I think you'll like Matt Smith. Acrobatic Flea really summed him up the best earlier in this thread. But I'll add that he's got a boyish charm, yet is very passionate. I dig him.
