	Media	Author	Review
		Robin McKie The Guardian	"It's not the contemporary values that make the show. It is its clever imitation of US hits such as 'Buffy' and 'Angel': a mixture of smart, ironic humour and creepy horror"
		Stephen Pile Telegraph	"It is like watching a completely new programme but with enough references to the great tradition to make it authentic."
		Verne Gay Newsday	"As the first in what one hopes will be a long line of female doctors, Whittaker is funny, energetic and full of joy. Whovians should be pleased."
		Matt Roush TV Guide	"Truth is there’s nothing off in either Smith’s infectiously enthusiastic spin on the good Doctor or in newly installed executive producer Steven Moffat's confident storytelling."
		Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"It takes no time at all for the new team to establish its authority; the new "Who" feels at once traditional and fresh, and completely right."
		The Hollywood Reporter	"It's family-friendly and adult-pleasing, over-the-top and nightmarish, witty and deep all at the same time."
		Variety Staff Variety	"Sharply satirical and playfully dorky without getting bogged down in its own mythology, this iteration should continue to broaden the show's appeal beyond its twin fanbases of Comic-Con lifers"
		Maureen Ryan Chicago Tribune	"A bold and energetic (if not frenetic) new edition of Doctor Who. Hang on to the TARDIS, fans, it looks like we're in for quite a ride."
		Charles McGrath The New York Times	"Like so much British science fiction, especially Douglas Adams's 'Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' series, this 'Doctor Who' has a goofy, homemade quality; it's less interested in gizmos than in characters."
		Hanh Nguyen IndieWire	"Goofy and curious, commanding and contemplative, Thirteen is already well on her way to demonstrating the complex emotional makeup that is the Doctor."
