It's impossible for every Doctor to be the "best" Doctor. Matt Smith (what a boring name) will certainly be no David Tennant, but keep in mind that when DT was named a lot of people had a similar reaction (who?). Granted, DT had more experience than this plucky chap (hey, we're in a Doctor Who thread, gotta talk British :P), but apparently Smith has done a good job in the productions he has been in.
His age concerns me, both from a quality standpoint and a story standpoint. I'm skeptical that his acting will be as good as if it were someone 10+ years older, but more importantly I just have a very hard time picturing The Doctor as someone younger than, say, 35 at the youngest. And when I'm 35, I'll probably think The Doctor should be at least 45.
Anyway, I'll give him a chance........so long as they do something about his hair. His franken-looks...well I'll just have to get used to that. (Yes, I know, I'm mean.)
