Victory to the Daleks!Author: jawapro

Three episodes in, and I’m pleased to say that the new Dr Who series is going well.
Matt Smith has been a surprisingly good doctor so far, and Amy Pond has been a good companion (although I think she’s falling for the doctor - why can’t we have more companions like Donna?)
The most recent episode, Victory of the Daleks, was a brilliant idea - and a great way to re-introduce the Daleks without killing them off again. I mean seriously, how many times did Russel T Davis get rid of them only to bring them back? Hundreds of Daleks - all gone, hundreds of Daleks, all gone, hundreds of Dalek, all gone. At least this episode gives the Daleks some of the respect they deserve.
That said - I’m not sure about the appearance of the new Daleks. Like the Doctor and the Tardis, the Daleks get a new look too. It’s odd, and not unprecedented, but I’m not sure I approve. Partly because I thought the look of the Daleks was pretty fantastic already. These ones, I’m not so sure.
That said, if the Daleks can get more stories that actually justify the Doctors dread of them, I’ll be happy.
