I guess I'm going to have to watch the last few episodes over again to decipher the
naturalistic conversation.

I like the idea of brains rather than brawn as a model for heroism.
Dr. Who eschews the use of guns, which I think is an excellent message.
He also has a sense of humor regarding the lockstep of military enterprises.

I like the sense of compassion that he exhibits toward humanity.

The character retains the sense of adventure and objective humor about the predicaments he enters.

I don't think I like his temper tantrums that have been added recently.
