Think the show will be great! Kinda hope he does an American accent just to see if he can do it! David is a fantastic actor and I am excited to see this series!
I can still remember when I first saw Tennant as the Doctor. I was so hoping some top brass at some network here in the states would have the good sense to steal him for a series! Add me to the list of people who would pay to watch him read the phone book! Now how about adding the guy who played “the Master”, John Simm, on as well!
All you had to say was David Tennant, and Jerry O. is like the cherry on top of a lovely sundae, yum-o
So has anyone besides me emailed NBC and told them how much we want this show to be picked up?
I loooooovvvvve David Tennant he is the best acter to ever grace tv. I hope he stays the same as the doctor. Molti bene.
David Tennant is what drew me to the post but add in Jane Curtin and Jeffrey Tambor and I’m so in. Although I’m sure I’ll constantly be thinking of Weekend Update while Jane is onscreen
YES!!! I’ll be watching for David Tennant..accent or no..I don’t really care!! He is a SUPERB
YES!!! I’ll be watching for David Tennant…accent or no…He is a SUPERB actor and an incredible person!!! Love ALL his work (yes, I own movies from the UK that star him) Welcome to the States David Tennant!!! I hope your star just takes off!! Looking forward to some REAL entertainment as well as depth of character!!
Shout out to all of those David Tennant fans out there!
I honestly will be watching this for one reason and one reason alone: David Tennant (duh!) He’s a warm, talented, interesting actor (did I mention that he is versatile, quirky-loveable and ADORABLE!!!!) and I would watch him in anything. I really hope that this series is good because I am suffering from DT withdrawal after that regeneration (I am still in grieving mode for Ten). Woo hoo David Tennant! I hope you explode in North America just like you did in the UK.
Since I saw and heard David doing the Hamlet soliloquy “To be or not to be” I KNOW he can read a telephone book and everybody would get hooked by his voice. Love his accent too.. but I heard recently a version of his faked American accent.. it is not that worse.. a bit of the Scot is still underneath.. So don’t worry… still sounds fascinating
He is a great actor. Love his work.. Miss the Doctor.. Want him back on the stage in Britain – one day –
Has no one noticed, that the O’Connell picture is wrong. It shows Chris and not Jerry..
So, all the best wishes to Mr. T.
Last week while in Vegas I actually had the chance to view the show as a test audience.I was hooked in the first five minutes. The cast all seem to click. Glad to see the doctor us back. Even if he is missing his accent. This show got five stars from me all the way. Can’t wait fir the final cut to hit tv.
When IS the pilot coming out in ENGLAND???
I <3<3<3<3<3 DAVID TENNANT SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!
I don't know the rest, but it sounds geekily uber-cool (like me!)
lol!
