Vidder website: http://flummery.org

There's a streaming version up on our imeem (http://flummery.imeem.com), but it's a little stuttery in spots and we're not sure why. Hopefully we'll get it figured out and fixed soon.

Imeem went boom, so we put a streaming version up on our site, which you can watch there or here:

ETA April 17, 2012: Our streaming vids are temporarily offline while we look into a technical issue. Sorry! The download still works, and we'll get the streaming version back up as soon as we can.

So, okay, I am very late in leaving a comment on this because I downloaded the video months ago after thefourthvine recced it. It's just that...well, I don't know if you want to hear that your vid is helping to keep me from watching Doctor Who.

Tenth doctor, that is. I rented Season One of new!Who and fell in love with Nine and Rose and Jack. And then the next week I happened to flip channels and see Ten get Rose locked away in some alternate dimension that she'll never be able to leave. Well, you can imagine my feelings... Then I catch Ten apparently trying to leave Jack back in Cardiff, and that does it, I'm flipping channels again. But everybody keeps talking about how cute and nerdy David Tennant is. Should I give it another try? Finally, I saw this video. This is definitely not the "everybody lives" Doctor I love. So, I guess maybe I'll wait and see what the Eleventh Doctor is like; this Doctor I'm skipping.

You can't watch an intentionally bleak video (though a brilliant one) that takes things out of context, and a few snippets from another episode, and judge a character. You could do the same thing with nine and he wouldn't look all that wonderful either. (btw, it was nine that left jack on satellite five, knowing he was alive, because he felt "wrong".)
at least check out the first couple episodes with ten - the christmas invasion and "new earth". If you still don't like ten, well at least you'll know you gave it a try. Cause boy he's wonderful - he's been best described as "complex" - he's kind, compassionate, heroic, manic and friendly. He can also be ruthless when you cross him. And rude. and those 3 seasons with him had some great moments.
Anyway, even if you decide not to give him a try, at least check out "blink" from the 3rd season. A great episode that was voted as one of the top tep episodes of all time - and it only has a few brief cameos from ten. So even if you don't like him you'll probably enjoy it.
