According to a number of sources, including EW, Dr. Who star David Tennant is taking the bar exam — fictionally that is — for a new series here in the good old US of A.
The show is called “Rex Is Not Your Lawyer” and it revolves around a top Chicago lawyer who suffers from panic attacks so he teaches his clients to represent themselves in court. Sounds like Monk in the courtroom and that could be great fun.
The pilot is being shot for NBC and they could use a big hit right now. I’d watch. Would you?

“From the moment I took over [as the Doctor, the U.K. tabloids] were all saying, ‘Well, who’s going to be next’” in the role, said David Tennant in a phone interview with the Chicago Tribune. “One of the names that always came up was David Morrissey, so it was nice to be able to play with those expectations a little bit.”
In a clever ploy that allowed the series to run for so many years, The Doctor has the ability to regenerate — taking on a new face (as in a new actor) every few seasons. But this time around, it’s …read more

Doctor Who and Captain Jack Harkness are headed for the good old U.S of A and just in time for Comic Con. Imagine that.

We’ve had a bit of a break, but BBC America is about to get its Who on again with the acquisition of five new specials. The deal includes the four 2009 specials; the final episodes of the tenth Doctor as played by David Tennant. The first of the specials, Doctor Who: Planet of the Dead will premiere in July. As a London red bus takes a detour to an alien world it forces the Doctor (Tennant) to work with the extraordinary Lady Christina (Michelle Ryan, Bionic Woman). But the mysterious planet holds terrifying secrets hidden in the sand and time …read more

Author Karen Miller jumps on the bandwagon and has her say about the new Doctor Who. . .

I have a terrible confession to make. Possibly it might even be seen as heretical – but here goes.
The very first Doctor Who episode I ever watched was ‘The Runaway Bride’.
And now I pause this commentary so readers can pick themselves up off the floor, reach for a stiff drink and possibly the phone to call for an ambulance.
You good now? Good. Alons-y!
As a child, I remember my uncle loved Doctor Who. I remember him watching it whenever he was visiting. I …read more

As you’ve undoubtedly heard, David Tennant is leaving Doctor Who and in his place will be a 26 year-old, relatively unknown actor named Matt Smith (you can see him here). Since the announcement was made, great debates have popped up all over the fandom – is he too young? Is he too unknown? Is he exactly the kind of fresh blood the franchise needed to stay afloat? Everybody’s got an opinion — even when they have ‘no opinion’ which is the stance of our guest poster, author Keith DeCandido.
Take it away, Keith. . .

Reuters UK reports that The Doctor himself, David Tennant, is earning rave reviews in the most talked about production of Hamlet in recent memory. It’s become the talk of England because not only because it stars the man the Daleks call The Oncoming Storm, but because Patrick Stewart plays Hamlet’s uncle/stepfather Claudius.
Some theatre purists’ eyes rolled into the backs of their heads with this one, but it’s not like they’re pulling these castings out of the Neutral Zone or something. Stewart was an acclaimed theatre star long before he “made it so” as Capt. Jean Luc Picard.  He was nominated …read more

Looks like the TARDIS will be making another stop in the good old US of A this April when Doctor Who returns to SCI FI Channel for an all-new fourth season.
