"Don't drink the water, don't even touch it, not one drop" warns one character in The Waters of Mars,which returns Doctor Who to form after the last two good, but not great, special episodes (The Next Doctor and Planet of the Dead). The welcome dark tone is driven by a moral dilemma faced by The Doctor, one specific to time travelers. It's rare to find The Doctor so indecisive, so reluctant to step in, and David Tennant plays the character with the complexity and gusto we've come to expect since he took over the mantle of the long-running and iconic character in 2005. This is the last of three episodes to star Tennant as The Doctor before Matt Smith takes over the part next year and The Waters of Mars reminds viewers why he's a fan-favorite and how much he'll be missed.
