Dr Who

[Tadao]

Never watched the original. Not even 2 seconds of it. The new ones are out on SciFi channel. How does it compare to the original? I watched the new one last night. It was ok. Campy and what not, but it is supposed to be, right?

[Fathom Zero]

Yeah.

I liked it better when Christopher Eccleston was Doctor Who, but you can't have everything now can you?

I freakin' love this show. It's my favorite show at the moment. Spin-offs aren't as good, but the second season of Torchwood is miles better than the first season.

For some reason, when Tom Baker played Dr. Who, the intro scared the shit out of me, especially that shot where he's staring blankly out from the TV.

Of course, I was like 5 at the time.

[caffman]

Doctor who is brilliant! Torchwood is better though. The end of season 2 was great

[Tadao]

Thanks for reminding me. Another one airs tonight. I guess I don't care that much if I forgot all about it in a weeks time.

I preferred the original Dr. Who, but the new ones do capture a lot of the camp. How many new seasons have there been so far?

The theme and hollow-eyed Barker freaked me out as a kid as well, but now Howard Stern uses the intro theme for one of his callers and it's just hilarious now.

[Tadao]

This is the 3rd season? I'm way late.

i like most of the baker/davison dr whos, and the new stuff is mostly good too
