I've been watching the popular English sci-fi series "Doctor Who" lately and, to my surprise, it isn't that bad. I was kind of skeptical about it since I know its popularity has dwindled over the years (or so I believe), but despite all of that it surprises me with how much I got into it. It hasn't been long since I started watching it; about a week or so. Started it on the, I believe, 9th doctor, an episode called "Rose", and am currently on the 13th episode.
I remember one of my friends (a bit distant now) in kindergarten and primary school has been very invested in that show, just like his brother. I originally found out about it thru them, but I wasn't interested in it back then. I did watch a few episodes with him but found them kind of stupid and boring. Tho, stumbling upon it and watching it from start shined a light on why they might like it. I guess one just had to watch it from the start to understand the plot and make the whole experience more thrilling.
The show's general plot is decent, can't see the bigger picture yet, but I do believe there is one. Tho I don't like the idea of smaller plots in each episode so far, where a single problem occurs and the majority of the plot of that episode revolves around that problem for it to be resolved at the end. However, it is an interesting way to show us the universe since it introduces us to characters and entities which might not be important for the overarching plot of the series but can tell us what we could expect in other episodes (and that is everything). I also love the joyful nature of the doctor character in the series. Despite all the atrocities, abominations, and evil one might see and experience in that universe, the doctor always stays optimistic. Always finds a solution to a problem, or has enough luck for the problem to be solved "by itself". I could also list a lot of other things that I like or dislike about the show, but that would potentially spoil it for someone. Besides, I just got into it so I don't have an overall opinion on the show.
This was just a "filler" journal I guess. Nothing too interesting. I hope to find more thrilling and exciting topics to write about in my next journal.
Until then! Have a nice week :)
