Matt Smith...
I think I will enjoy his version
Select to view spoiler:
Slightly mad, very upbeat... but can go very dark on a seconds notice. Could be very interesting.
I really like the companion as well
her 14 year obsession, as well as possible being really actually crazy could be great.

Just for any people who don't get it - here's the original 1963 theme and title sequence:
...painstakingly constructed, without the benefit of modern synths by Delia Derbyshire gluing together individual notes on pieces of tape.
Imagine that coming over your B&W telly in the 60s or 70s, before you'd heard any electronic music or seen the stargate sequence from 2001...
and here's the 2010 version:
It's OK but totally loses the minimalism of the original...
(I couldn't find a version with the titles and good sound - this actually sounds like a better "mix" than we got on air).
Fortunately the show itself was quite good :-)

Well, new one-off episode - "The Judas Tree" - aired tonight in UK.
Same actor. Same "companion" as the Xmas 2008 one-off.

Indeed and it stars Paul McGann, the Eighth Doctor, plus Sheridan Smith, who plays his companion in the audio dramas of Doctor Who. Plus Ian McNeice is in it and he'll turn up in two episodes time. An enjoyable episode too.

I just tonight saw my first new ep of the new Doctor (Weeping Angels).
HATE the new theme song, opening credits, and TARDIS. Are they trying to be steampunk or something?
It doesn't look right, either. I'm not sure how they're filming it, but it looks weird -- not like Doctor Who at all and it annoys me.
If I didn't actually watch the action, I could hear the echoes of what would have been an awesome episode with either of the newer old Doctors. This companion could be good, but she came off really annoying and as a bad actress to me.
I was very, very disappointed. 
The story was great, but I thought the execution was awful.
