10 Movie and TV Picks for October2 of 10
"Doctor Who " | Premieres, Sunday, Oct. 7 on BBC America
"Doctor Who" begins anew this month as Steven Moffat passes the showrunning torch to Chris Chibnall, the TV writer who brought us the harrowing "Broadchurch," the ended-too-soon "Camelot," eight episodes of "Torchwood," and the Season 7 "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" episode of "Doctor Who." Season 11 also kicks off Jodie Whittaker’s history-making run as the first female Doctor and introduces three new companions which will give the show more of an ensemble feel than the previous Doctor/Companion combination of the past few years. Admittedly I’m not quite over Peter Capaldi’s stint as the Doctor, but I’m ready for a new favorite and I’m hoping the 13th is the one. — Vanessa
