Oh ok do you mean this version?

[Zixar]

For those who liked John Simm as the new Master, I highly recommend watching his previous series, Life on Mars. Simm plays Sam Tyler, a cop in Manchester who gets in an accident and wakes up in 1973. He doesn't know if he's insane, in a coma, or actually thrown back in time, but it's like living on another planet. Only two seasons were filmed, of eight episodes each, but it's well worth watching. A follow-on series, Ashes to Ashes is set to debut next year on the BBC.

God bless!

I remamber there were two movies in the 1960's with peter cushing
starring as the doctor based on the shows espically the daleks.

Yeah.. I saw that once. "Dr. who and the city of the Daleks".

For the life of me.. I don't know why they persued commercial success with the series.. once they actually had it in their hands..

Maybe the modern special effects would have ruined it. I think it was successful because it stood pretty much entirely on the story line, despite the low budget and lack of good special effects.

That's what I like about the e books. No special effects or junk at all to get in the way..

they can do things in the books that could never be duplicated on stage.

One of my kids painted the inside of their bedroom door to look like the Tardis.

I figure I've done something right as a parent.

I hope it was not William hartnell was not the role model. I don't know how he was the doctor for 4 years he was a mean cranky character. He did mello out a bit once his grandaughter left the show. I quess maybe its a cultural thing in the UK.

[Thomas Loy Bumgarner]

hey Hartnell was suppose to be a cranky old grandfather figure. It's Colin Baker's Doctor that seemed to be really mean with about almost strangling Peri Brown in the first episode. Man, what a grouch. Even Trial of a Timelord season never really mellowed him. I know that there has always been a dark side to the Doctor. Did any of you see the episode The End Of Time with the return of the Time Lords?

I known what you mean. Once tom baker left the show he was a hard act to follow. John pertwee was very good. Then peter davidson well I am not saying he was bad doctor but I though he was too nice, then colin baker was too aggressive. Mr Maccoy well. I don't known I thought he was miscast as the doctor. he never seem too fit the role to me.

[Thomas Loy Bumgarner]

I think Slyvester was ok but Michael Grade who was BBC program director(who fired Colin) already decided that Doctor Who had outlived its purpose. Paul McGann did alright(I hated the script). Then Chris Eeclestron wussed out adter 1 season. Russell Davies always wanted David Tennant to play the Doctor in the revived role. Curious to see how Matt Smith will do. btw, what do you think about Cushing's 2 movies?

[nyunknown]

I was kind of hoping the sylvester Maccoy was going to be more like patrick trouton. I think the last few years from colin baker to maccoy the scripts frankly were terrible. I did read that colin baker was so angry at the bbc when he got fired that he refused to to the regenration senquence. I mean the blonde wig and the special effects were pretty bad. Pau magann was good in the tv movie it sold in the uk but not here in the USA. Erica roberts was miscast as the master. I was suprized that chris elclestron left after one year. I thought he did pretty good. I am trying to find the artical but chris only wanted to do it for one year. I like david tennet he was the closest thing to tom baker. as for the two movies cushing movies it was good for its time. I look back at it now its pretty dated cushing doctor was human in the movies. I think the real good regerention senquence was from hartnell to trouton, back in 1967 it must have been quite a shock to change the actor. the real sad thing was there was a few missing shows from doctor 1 and 2. I don't know if they can ever restore them or ever find them.

My favorite theme was Tom Baker from season 1980's your your favorite theme Tom?

Some friends introduced me to the program when Chris Eeclestron was Dr Who... I totally loved him as Who... he was funny and odd and smart and charming all at the same time... One of my friends was very into Tenant... but I have to say it wasn't as fun for me with him.. he did bring a darkness to the character that is for sure... but then I haven't been following it for years so I am sure I do not realize what Dr Who is supposed to be like. Also his relationship with Rose was awesome... Yes i am a romantic at heart!

@ Ham your reincarnated lifes made me LOL!

I think one of the most touching monments in Dr. Who history was the return of sara jane smith played by elizabeth sladen who was with jon pertwee for one year (dr. no 3 ) and tom baker( Dr.no 4) for 2 years.

The look on sara jane face when she saw the tardis was quite moving then when she saw dr. no 10 david tennet was priceless!

That is soooo funny! Good on ya mom! My mom would never have let me paint anything in my room.

Anyways, I'm a big Doctor Who fan. I also have watched many of the Monty Python shows/ movies on DVD.

I've seen all of the Doctor Who with Chris and David as the Doctor and most of the Doctor Who Confidential's. Not quite as thrilled about Torchwood but have seen most of them

Also loved Red Dwarf But hey,... it's Sci-Fi without an American Accent, so the old shows weren't Star Trek calibre..... or "Star Wars" ILM Quality even

Anyone remember UFO? My Dad left me a Huge DVD collection when he died. Space 1999? oh there's so many good old (crappy) shows...... <grin>

Don't forget K-9!

[waysider]

Would you like a jelly baby?



Sic 'em K-9!

[nyunknown]

I could never forget K-9! There are 3 diffrent versions of k-9. I know dr.no 4 left one with sara jane it was one show with k-9 .He also left another one with leia after she stayed on gallifery in The invasion of time, and another one with romana 2 after he and adric in warriors gate from e-space. I remembers UF0 series I thought that show was too serious and depressing. I like space 1999 the second season was made for american but the show was canceled. I could not believe the frist season so many people got killed off. I was amazed that anyone was left. I saw red dwarf that was a funny show!
