Stealing is alright aslong as its done for the thrill and not money?

Re: Stealing is alright aslong as its done for the thrill and not mone

Usually the phrase "gay agenda" is used to mean "he's trying to ram his sexuality down our throats o teh noes".

At least that's all he's trying to ram down my throat.

His only "gay agenda" as far as I can tell is simply having homo/bisexual characters in there without it being a big deal (which arguably backfires when he makes a bigger deal about it not being a big deal arg my head hurts).

Ultimately RTD's AGENDA is to make good television, something which he succeeds at more often than not.
I agree... TV needs a good homosexual ramming everyone and then...

In hopes you can get fired?

Oh, and I'll have you know, I have some very interesting ideas... I'm just awful at expressing them :p
 
Re: Stealing is alright aslong as its done for the thrill and not mone

well I am in need of a well paid job at the moment, and I cant do any worse than the last guy, plus it is my dream to work in TV, so why not take the chance.

I think a "heist" is generally considered entertaining. Stealing from a museum, bank, or casino is not the same as stealing some poor Joe's hard-earned stuff. I'm not saying that makes it right but it has long been the stuff of Hollywood. Besides she did get arrested, so the kiddies would hopefully be smart enough to realize that the Doctor isn't going to be there to free them in real life. She played a part in saving the Earth so I think the Doctor considered her to have redeemed herself enough for one pardon. Gotta lighten up people.:)
 
Re: Stealing is alright aslong as its done for the thrill and not mone

I think the worst message that that episode sent out was the doctor aiding and abetting a criminal by allowing her to escape from the law.

Because the Doctor never did anything that could be considered morally wrong like say goading someone into blowing up their own star system, or stealing a time machine from his own people.

Very bad message to put across on a kids show, surprised there havent been more complaints. What do you guys think??

Don't forget to add - as long as it's done by a pretty girl - then it's REALLY okay!!!


Lame and considering this is a family show, actually quite socially irresponsible.

THE MAIN CHARACTER OF THE SHOW STOLE HIS MODE OF TRANSPORT.

Why is this so hard to understand? She stole something that helped to save the entire Earth. Really, get off it.

Frankly, I'm far more disturbed by the punishments that the Doctor dished out on the Family of Blood. Death seemed far more humane and civil (and like the Doctor, I'm against the death penalty) than sentencing someone to living inside a supermassive black hole for all eternity. Suddenly theft (retroactively justified theft, at that) doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore.

Exactly. Christina stole a gold cup. The Doctor has done a great deal worse.

The Tenth Doctor is one you really don't want to mess with.

As socially irresponsible as making a show whose hero is a hypocrite who preaches non-violence but has commited FUCKING GENOCIDE on multiple occasions?

That perhaps parents should actually talk to their children and explain that stealing is wrong rather than rely on a television programme to raise their kids for them.

And if you are going to complain about the Doctor Who easter special, shouldnt everyone be complaining week after week about Robin Hood? Afterall he steals and assaults people! Very bad message to put across on a kids show.

QI has ruined everything. I would have laughed at that, now all i can think about is how the rhyme is nothing to do with the black death. Damn you Stephen Fry!
