"I wear a Stetson now"

The trailer for the sixth series of “Doctor Who” is up and available for viewing below. Very little plot is betrayed in the trailer, but it manages to encompass everything great about the show in sixty seconds. The Doctor tries to swagger, but is just a bit too dorky to pull it off and has the Stetson hat shot right off of his head. He has a half dozen guns pointed at his head and merely folds his hands and starts issuing orders. And then the lowered voice, the Doctor more deadly the quieter he gets, the whispered intonation, “monsters are real.”

Fantastic.

The series will air in the spring of 2011, with the third episode having been written by Neil Gaiman. Another tidbit of news: Mark Sheppard (who played the phenomenal Romo Lampkin on “Battlestar Galactica”) will be in two episodes.

New version up now. The BBC called in the redcoats on the YouTube version because it in unacceptable for you to watch it anywhere but from their own servers. It’s a kindness really, it makes no difference to you which server we embed from, but now the British taxpayer is shouldering the bandwidth expense instead of the good stockholders of YouTube.-SLW

Mark Sheppard is the go-to Brit bad guy in virtually every US TV show.

Won't he be out of his league when everyone else in the cast has the same evil accent as him?

I really like River Song. Glad she's back. Whoo hoo!

So many good things packed in that trailer.

Mark Sheppard (who played the phenomenal Romo Lampkin on “Battlestar Galactica”) will be in two episodes.

Badger! Does this mean he gets to bring the bowler hat back to compete with the fez/Stetson?

Honestly, linking to a blocked video? And the link hasn't been up long at all.

But if she's naked she can't have the tight pants on.

It's an impossible dilemma.

I'm not sure but I thought I saw Mark Sheppard briefly in the Christmas Special. Confirm?

You're thought to see the back of his head as one of the G-Men.

Mark Sheppard, sad little king of a sad little hill. And boo Stetsons, bring the fezes back!

Hell.yes.

Excuse while I do my happy Doctor Who of gleefulness dance. It involves ass wiggling and hand flapping and screeching.

Still haven't watched the Christmas special. Argh.

I'm pumped, I mean, there's no way it can out-underwhelm more than the Christmas special. Aqua Mannequin? Yeesh.

You're not Timothy Olyphant, TAKE THAT HAT OFF!

I was actually wriggling in my chair during the whole thing. In the good way.
