Well, frell.

And RTD is writing the farewell episode, too. :/

Oh no~! Even *I* liked him as the Doctor. Poo.

All things considered, in terms of screen time he actually had one of the longer runs as the Doctor. Pertwee matched him, and only Tom Baker exceeded him. It's a shame, but I can understand why he was ready to leave. Here's hoping the next Doctor is as good...

Pertwee had 5 seasons. Tennant will have had three plus the shortend clump o' specials year. Pertwee's still securely in second place.

I actually am counting Tennant as four years, but counted Pertwee as four. My mistake.

My problem with all this is they decide Dr. Who would run only a few shows this year because of Tennant's schedule. And now he decides he doesn't want to do it? shoul dhad him regenerate during Journey's End and started fresh with a whole new season.

NO!

*pout*

I wonder if I throw a tantrum, he'll come back. . .

Eh. Not too surprising, really. They usually head off after this long. Eccleston quitting after only one series was a schock, but this isn't.

And on the up side, it'll give Moffatt a much freer hand in setting up the feel of his era if he has a new Doctor to work with and can reshape the character's personality to suit his vision.

I wouldn't have been upset if Tennant came back for 2010, but I'm not particularly upset that he's leaving either.
