Enjoy!
The months leading up to Matt Smith season 2 run was terrific, nobody had ever seen such a large group of people eager to watch a tv show.
And who could blame them?
The ending of the season had been specular, the perfect end to a specular run and it had the highest viewership ratings the world had ever seen despite being from England.
Huge broadcasting Channels in both America and England bid on who would get the rights to air season 2 in their region.
The bids were ridiculously high, but it was worth it because the substantial advertisement companies were eyeing the slots in-between the show thanks to the very high viewership numbers.
Those who got it were going to advertise the hell out of season 2.
In the coming months, a lot of Scifi shows also appeared on television, hoping to become successful through the crowd of Whovians, only to find out the hard way that the fans would rather watch Doctor Who from 30 years ago than watch what was .' a cash grab.
And then on a Tuesday, the second season of Matt Smith run aired on television, the months in-between both seasons meant that places like Asia and Japan could catch up with their dubbing and end on a high note.
The viewership ratings were also ridiculously high since the Japanese people had been curious because it was very popular in the west and stayed for the high-quality storytelling and acting.
The first thing the viewers saw for season 2 of Matt Smith's run, were two old looking shoes and a man screaming the doctor name, he walked through a posh castle, England was known for its old monuments, and the man banged on a posh looking door.
"DOCTOR!" the man yelled.
The camera zoomed fast out to see the Doctor clothes on the floor, then it moved to a pot of paint brushes that reminded people of Vincent and the Doctor, but when the camera moved to a painting, many viewers burst out laughing seeing a painting of a naked Doctor holding a trident, a single red cloth was around his junk and angels put a crown on top of his head.
What the hell?
And the camera went to the door to see a man, who looked like he belonged in a Peter Pan movie appear with his band of men, barge in.
"Where's the doctor?" The man demanded.
They turned to see a woman with ginger hair and in Victorian clothes who said. "Doctor? Doctor Who?"
Just then they all heard a sneeze.
The camera showed all three man's faces changed when they heard that sneeze before the man who asked the questions used his fencing sword to move down the women's dress and pick it up, what they saw next was the doctor, naked and hiding in her dress.
"...Ur, this isn't what it looks like" Said, the Doctor.
The Audience was wondering since when was the Doctor so smooth with the ladies, this scene was hilarious though.
But then the scene switched to both Rory and Amy who were being updated with the Doctor ridiculous antics, through clues and got an invite through the mail.
Even the locked-up River Song got an invite with badass Doctor who music to accompany the scene.
What happened next was hilarious, a concerned more solid was on the phone with a superior.
"Sir, you better come down here" Said, the man. "She's doing it again. She's packing; she says she's going to some Planet called America."
River Song was going to escape again.
The next scene was the Ponds getting off a Bus that had a famous American background and wondered where he was.
"Are you sure, he's here?" Said, Rory.
", Hello," Said, a familiar voice.
They both turned to see the Doctor fully clothed and in a cowboy hat.
He sure, know how to make entrance.
He hugged them when he saw them, it had been so long, and then somebody shot how Cowboy hat off his head.
It was River Song.
With all of them reunited, they went to a nearby café, to catch up.
"So where to next?" Said, Amy as everybody wondered what this episode would be about.
"Somewhere new" Said, the Doctor.
"Where?" Said, Amy.
The Doctor smiled and said. "Space. 1969"
And then the opening rolled, and people made sure they were eating something to prepare them for the awesomeness they would no doubt see.
When the opening finished, it revealed the episode title 'The Impossible Astronaut.'
The hype was real.
They saw a beautiful looking scene after the opening. Clearly, the production budget was much higher than the first season.
All the characters sat on a rug and drank alcohol.
"Since when do you drink?" Said, Amy as the Doctor raised a bottle.
"I'm 11 hundred and 3. I must have drunken alcohol some time in my life" Said, the Doctor before taking a giant gulp only to spit it right out. "This taste terrible, it's like tasting gums."
The audience was amazed especially those old enough to drink since it was true.
And then Amy saw something, thousands of screens were graced with the image of something on top of a mountain making a weird noise.
"Who's that?" Said, Amy.
Yes, what the heck was that? A lot of the viewers wanted to know with interest.
"Who's, who?" Said, Rory wondering what she was looking at.
Amy attention was drawn away, and there was this weird sound of effect in the background as she did so and said. "Sorry, what?"
The look on the Doctor face when he heard her say that, meant he had picked up something strange, and so did the audience.
"What did you see? You said you saw someone" Said, Rory.
"Nchannellingo, I didn't," Said, Amy, certain.
But then the Doctor said something and a van pulled up with an old man; the Doctor gave the man a salute.
The man saluted back.
What on earth is happening? The viewers couldn't help but think.
"Look" Said, Rory and they all turned to see an actual astronaut coming out of the lake.
Holy hell.
"Stay back," said, the Doctor. "Whatever happens now, don't interfere."
The doctor began to draw closer and said. "It's okay...I know who you are"
He wasn't smiling,, and that's what alarmed the viewers watching.
The astronaut's helmets shield went up, but the face wasn't revealed because the camera turned to Rory and Amy who were wondering what he was doing but then, something shocking happened.
The Astronaut shot the Doctor!
The astronaut shot him twice!
"DOCTOR!" Amy yelled in panic.
"DOCTOR!" Yelled the fanbase and viewers.
The camera changed to show a familiar yellow glow that spelled doom for the actor playing the Doctor.
No.
He couldn't regenerate!
He was only on his second season, damn it!
But it kept going and Matt Smith was about to regenerate before their very eyes, the fanbase prepared to riot online.
But then the Doctor was shot right in the middle of his, regeneration and he fell down dead.
"DOCTOR!" All three-companion said, rushing to him, the doctor was still Matt Smith, but he wasn't breathing.
He was dead; the fans wanted to climb into the screen and go after the Astronaut.
Luckily River Song did it for them, or tried to, only to find her out here blaster wasn't working.
They all rushed to the Doctor, and the old man from the van told them all that the Doctor was indeed dead and to hammer it in, he gave them a jug of gasoline so that the Doctor could have a Viking Funeral because people would got after the body of a dead time lord.
They all watched the funeral with tears in their eyes as the Doctor Body was lit on fire and carried down a river before River Song realised there were four letters, but there was three of them.
Who was number 1?
But they didn't care, the doctor was dead, and Amy channeled their depression.
They saw the envelope on the table and then somebody came out of the bathroom door.
It was the Doctor.
"Hello. Hello" said, the Doctor looking very much alive.
Everybody eyes widened including the audience, how was he alive?
And then they all realized the Doctor that had been recruited was, in fact, a younger version of himself which explained the confusion.
River Song made up a story so that the Doctor didn't find out that they just saw him die.
They hopped into the Tardis and was going to take a ride back to 1969 but the Doctor stopped it, wanting some answers on why everybody was so secretive around him and who sent the Letter, he even asked who River Song was and why she know him so much.
He let it go, and they ride to the year.
When they entered the year, people got a well-deserved history lesson on who was in power around the time America wanted to go to space.
And that's when the Doctor steps outside only to arrive within the Whitehouse and heard a recorded tape.
The Doctor smelling something juicy began to get out a sheet of paper and began to write down as the two highly important men talked, when the president of the time turned around, both men finally saw the doctor.
When the doctor noticed both men's eyes on him, he just motioned for them to carry on, many viewers burst out laughing at how chill he was in such a situation.
They missed the Doctor.
"Oh, hello," Said, the Doctor, before trying to slowly back out of the room. "Oh, look at this, this is the overall office, I was looking for-" he bumped into a lamp, and he tried to fix it.
Security was called, and the doctor tried to run away only to slam into the box and be handcuffed on the way down.
Security burst into the room, and the president was starting to be taken away when River Song made the box visible, and everybody eyes widened when they saw the box appear before their very eyes.
"What the hell is that?" said, President Nickson.
Everybody finally gave the Doctor a chance, and the next scene was the Doctor being in the president chair looking through notes while guns were being pointed at him.
He was by far the chilliest dude in this kind of situation they all had ever seen, and they loved it.
"Who the hell are you?" said, the President, before turning to the police box and saying. "What is that big blue box!?"
"Can't you read?" said, the Doctor. "That's a Police Box." before he introduced himself and said. "I'm your new undercover agent from Scotland yard, code name 'The Doctor'." then he turned to Amy and the group and said. "They are my top operatives. The legs. The nose. And Miss Robbinson"
More than half the viewers, watching burst out laughing when they heard what he called the actress who played River Song.
Perfect delivery and who was the writer who came up with that line?
The agent that was called in found the doctor amazing and convinced everybody to give him 5 minutes, the next scene had the room filled with maps, and the doctor had taken his jacket off.
And then Amy saw it.
In the doorway was something that couldn't be called human.
"What the hell is that?" said, Lory Takarada who watched online, seeing the creepy looking thing in the doorway.
His thoughts were echoed around the world.
And then it was blocked, and the sound effect came again, Amy seemed to have forgotten its existence.
She was taken to, the bathroom and Rory was blocked from following her.
She found the creature in the woman bathroom, but they weren't alone, there was a woman in there, and it was the creepiest thing seeing her freak out, but the moment she turned away, she forgot it.
When the viewers realised what the creature did, it was horrifying.
Imagine a creature that you don't remember when you take your eyes off it?
It was a very scary concept.
And then the creature started raising its arms and the lights in the bathroom began to flicker, everybody was horrified.
What on earth was it doing?
And they saw it.
It started gathering electricity within itself, and then the woman turned around and saw the creature channeling electricity and pointing at her, the electricity was zapped into her and the creature mouth was black as it let out a creep sound and before their very eyes, the woman exploded into ash.
Everybody watching was horrified.
By now they all realised that this was villain of the first episode of the new season.
Who hell?
And then the thing started talking, in a deep voice one born from nightmares it told 'Amy' who the woman was and Amy full name, it wanted her to pass a message to the Doctor and was creepy going towards her, any rational person would be running for fear of their life.
The Artist's did a fantastic job on the creature though, and they couldn't imagine the human being underneath.
Amy rushed out of the room and then she was confronted.
Suddenly she visibly forgot.
Seeing this, some of the audience began to think of the term 'Deja Vu' that link with a time that they swore, they had gone through before but could not remember.
It made the villain that much scarier as the series had a unique way of answering that feeling.
They found the location of the little girl and went underground, while the man who seemed to love the Doctor demeanor accompanied them.
He was like a curious kid, wanting to knew about the Doctor and the blue box.
And then Rory and River Song went, off together and the creatures came when Rory stuck his head out, every single viewer was horrified to see that there was more than one of them and all of them were positioned creepily, Rory went back out and forgot.
This was terrifying.
Who was the writer who thought of this episode and could they be employed to write a horror?
But every eye could not look away.
"Thes,e tunnels," said, River. "They've no.t just .been here."
And then the camera moved to one of the creature's point of view, and they all saw it start creeping up on Rory. The viewers were shouting at their screens, out of concern for Rory.
By the time Rory realised something was wrong it was too late.
"RORY!" yelled River Song.
The scene changed, and it was the Doctor and Amy alone.
Amy needed to tell him something before they heard a man scream and ran to find him unconscious on the floor and then they heard a little girls voice.
Amy told the Doctor she was pregnant.
And then they saw the Astronaut; the fanbase was up in arms.
There was no way it was killing the doctor a second time; they were prepared to riot.
However, Amy got their back this time, when she saw it, she grabbed the gun on the floor, the Doctor eyes were wide when she picked it up.
"What are you doing?" He said.
"SAVING YOUR LIFE!" said, Amy being one with the fans and then she shot the Astronaut.
But it wasn't a good feeling when she shot the bullet, instead, she looked on with horror.
The credit rolled.
You could say the world stood still when they saw the credit rolling.
"Wait, it's over?" said, Lory Takarada, as everybody watching was shocked that an hour went by just like that. "When is the next episode? Is there early excess?"
Many people did not think Doctor Who could keep up the quality after the fantastic finally and won't be able to hit it big anymore, but the first episode of the new season had put those fears to rest.
Doctor Who Matt Smith era was, back and the wait had been worth it.
The World wanted to know what those creatures were and how the Doctor will defeat them.
They wanted the next episode.
Ch 6: Matt Smith goes to America
"I've never flown first class before. Exciting" Matt said as he sat in the first class section with his manager on his left, those who heard his voice couldn't help but look his way, wondering if he was that actor from the television show. "The America's really want all out."
His manager couldn't agree more since he too had never been to the first-class section of a plane and not many managers could attest to this.
Matt Smith was right now, Britain most valuable actor and the first episode of his second season was showered with nothing but praise. The viewership ratings had yet to be released but everybody know it was going to be high.
The good thing about Matt Smith run is that it made people notice the things that made up such an amazing episode, people were trying to get a hold of the artist's and those who made the aliens look so creepy.
Even Schools were showing Doctor Who to the pupils because it had educational value even if it had a Scifi plot.
Matt Smith landed in America, hours later and he and his manger got off the plane with the other first-class people, they saw a person holding a sign that said 'Matt Smith' and right behind them was a limousine.
"Hello, there." Matt Smith said, with his shades on and unique looking old man get up.
The man heard his voice, and his eyes widened; he soon opened the door for them.
They both got in, and they were driven to a hotel, the hotel was top notch, and it was way better than his house, he walked to the counter and said.
"Hello. My name is Matt Smith. I apparently have a room booked here." He said.
The person's eyes widened in shocked when he heard his name and voice, and so did the surrounding people.
Matt Smith, the British Actor, was in their hotel!?
They didn't believe it when somebody called ahead of time and booked the rooms saying it was for Matt Smith, the actor.
Matt was given the keys and shown to his new hotel room, which he would be staying in for two weeks.
Within an hour, it would get out that Matt Smith was in America.
The hotel had employed much better security to help combat those fans who wanted to see him and wouldn't leave him in peace.
By morning, Matt was heading to the studio with some employed bodyguards, when he and his manager got there, he saw that quite a few people were hovering around the outside because their favourite actors or directors were inside the building in front.
When he came out of the limousine, and everybody saw him even with his shades on, there was an uproar.
Matt Smith.
"MATT SMITH!?" yelled somebody.
"THAT'S MATT SMITH!" Yelled another person.
"I LOVE YOU MATT!" Yelled another person.
"PLEASE GIVE ME THE NEXT EPISODE!" yelled another person.
It was safe to say; the studio already knew of his arrival before he even walked through the front door.
He had gone from an absolute nobody to an actor who was making record-breaking episodes.
He and his manager walked into the building and was immediately greeted by a temp.
"Mister Matt Smith, welcome," said, the guy.
And then they were directed to the meeting place for all the actors who would be taken part in this movie.
#Meeting Place#
"The actor for the main policeman has arrived," said, the tempt as extremely famous actors turn to look at him in curiosity, including Kuu hizuri and to a lesser extent Julie Hizuri who only had a couple of lines do because of her heavy work as a supermodel which was her main job.
The person who came in was dressed in some old-fashioned clothes, but he had young skin, next to him was another man in a suit.
"Hello everybody," said, a voice, a lot of the actors recognised.
Matt said. "My name is Matt Smith, and I will be your policeman two weeks, please take care of m.e."
Everybody eyes widened in shock.
A British Actor was in Hollywood, none of them truly realised just how big he was until they saw him with their own eyes.
For the first time, Matt Smith was in the same room as the big leaguers.
For Matt was the first time he was in the same room as Kuu Hizuri and Julie Hizuri.
He was in the big leagues now.
And scene!
Next chapter, the whole studio is shocked to have a British actor present in the room, and it isn't long before he receives his lines, and they do a bit of a rehearsal to get the feeling, and he proves to everybody that he deserves to be in the same room as them. Meanwhile, Matt is very interested in Kuu and Julie Hizuri. Review/fav and follow!
