Doctor Who Tumblr hits 100,000 followers, Matt Smith says congrats, and everything is perfect.

Go watch the video above. You know, the one we’ve titled ‘DOCTOR WHO TUMBLR YAY EVERYBODY WE REACHED 100,000 FOLLOWERS NOW HERE’S A WORD FROM MATT!’

Ok. Now we can finally say it:

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

A year ago we started this Tumblr to celebrate our favorite reblogged Doctor Who fan art, fan posts, gifs, news, and other wibbly wobbly tumblry wumblry stuff.  Yes, we’re an official blog but as you can tell, we’re a little different.

That’s because we’re *your* official blog. The Doctor Who Tumblr is the show as seen through your eyes.

It’s fueled by your love for the Doctor, Amy, Rory, River, Ten, Nine, Donna, Rose, Martha, Sarah Jane, Captain Jack, Sue from Catering, the TARDIS, Classic Who, twelve Jammie Dodgers and a fez.

It’s every character and every story and every relationship and everyone who’s involved in this show that makes this thing the thing that it is.

As Matt Smith once said, the show is much bigger than just him or Karen or Arthur or Moffat or Caro (or just Tennant or Baker for that matter)…. That’s because the show is made up of all of us — from the people who make the show in Cardiff to the people who meet online and irl worldwide to share their love of Doctor Who.

And that’s why we’ve always said that the Doctor Who Tumblr is your tumblr. These are your posts and these are your 100,000 followers.

So congrats! Now let’s have the Tumblr version of a PARTY!

First: we need decorations! So we asked the AMAZING gif artist that is lulinternet to create a new gif for us:

Awesome, right?

So we took that and made a badge for you to put on your sidebar (you will love it on your blagh!), you know, in case you want to tell everyone else:

And what else… oh yeah! Gifts! As a thank you, we’re sending a prize pack of Doctor Who stuff (thank you BBCAmericaShop.com!) to our 100,000th follower, because, you know, they were lucky and that’s what you do for the lucky 100,000th follower.

But because we also appreciate loyalty, we’re giving a prize pack away to our very *first* follower as well. Because, you know, that’s how we roll.

So that’s about it. Sparknotes version: 100k followers, Matt smouldering on camera, awesome gif art, and gifts for being here with us. Also, while Huck is in moral conflict with the received values of the society in which he lives, he ultimately learns that there is nothing more important than friendship. (bad sparknotes joke is bad terrible)

We know there are Tumblr blogs with more followers (we’re looking at you, Beyoncé)…

…and tumblr blogs that post nothing but 10k notes…

… but we are so incredibly incredibly proud of this because it is about you and you truly are the greatest fandom ever.

Thanks for following.

doctorwho: Obsession can be good zanderpants: From Cracked.com’s 5 Celebrities Who Got Famous for by Being Obsessed Fan Boys #2. The Geek Who Would Be Doctor Who Started Out As: A young, obsessed Doctor Who fan whose schoolteachers had to tell him to shut up about it. But Became: The Doctor. Recently, Doctor Who won a victory over Star Trek by becoming the longest-running science fiction series ever. Twice as many actors have played the Doctor over its entire run as have played James Bond. All the way back in the ’70s, the role belonged to Tom Baker (the fourth Doctor), and his biggest fan in the universe was a geeky kid named David McDonald. And McDonald was a megafan to an extent that few men could begin to realize. As a child in school, it was all he ever wrote about, to the point where his teacher had to tell him to stop before she had to fail him. His most treasured possession was the stripy Doctor Who scarf his grandmother knitted him. But he was a talented kid, even if he channeled all that talent into incessantly ranting about Doctor Who (a teacher still has one of his essays about the Doctor, titled “Intergalactic Overload,” in which McDonald talked about becoming obsessed with the thought of being the Time Lord himself). And where most kids eventually drop their fantasy of growing up to be, say, a Jedi, David McDonald stuck to his guns and joined acting school. Only, because they already had a guy named David McDonald, he changed his name to something that a lot of nerds will find instantly familiar: David Tennant. Tennant worked hard, forging himself a successful career in Shakespearean stage productions, until one day, while recording a radio play, he learned of a project that was being recorded next door: a Doctor Who animation being produced in an attempt to revive the series after a 14-year hiatus. This was Tennant’s big break. He crashed the production and managed somehow to convince the director to give him a small role. Now that his foot was in the door, he was able to audition for the role he was born to play once the series geared up again. And guess what? He lost to Christopher Eccleston. Oh, but they gave Tennant the role a year later, when Eccleston quit. And Tennant went on to be voted the best version of the Doctor ever by fans, which makes sense, because he knew the character better than anyone in the history of the universe. As if that wasn’t a big enough screw you to the realists who mocked his obsession, he also married the daughter of Peter Davison, the fifth Doctor. Because apparently his good fortune just wasn’t implausible enough already.
