David Tennant (Spoiler Alert: Don't read unless you've seen all the Doctor Who episodes with Ten)
There are so many wonderful things that could be said about David Tennant, but I'm only going to talk about one special thing, his superior acting.
Keep in mind I've only seen him in Doctor Who, but I'm sure to change that fact.
David grew up watching the show, and wanting to play the Doctor one day. Watching it from such a young age certainly helped him understand and seamlessly portray the Doctor. When watching episodes, there have been times where I forgot he was acting. That hardly ever happens to me! One episode in particular really amazed me, The End of Time: Part 2, where he has a complete breakdown as the Doctor. In that scene, he's just completely immersed in the character. There's no way to explain how that scene makes me feel. It's like the Doctor isn't just a character anymore; he's a real person. The pain and frustration is so clear to the viewer that it makes most people sob. When he's crawled up on the floor of the chamber, it seems that nothing could ever be as bad as what he's going through. Gosh, it hurts so much. This scene is so heartbreaking and tragic, but in the most beautiful way. The whole episode is wonderfully written, but David Tennant makes it even better. I don't believe anyone could ever show pain and sadness in a more genuine way when acting. Although he's best at showing bad emotions, he's still very good at showing happiness and being quite hyper at times.
He is definitely one of my favorite actors of all time, and I hope to see more of his work soon! (P.S. Go watch Doctor Who right now if you never have!)
