On the new Dr. Who - did they keep the music? It's one of my favorite TV show themes of all time.

Frankenbuddha, as I mentioned above, it's the original theme tune, but "modernised".
At least the TARDIS noise is original.

Uh, dude. He travels in time; that's his schtick. So any Dr can be in any time.
Yes, I am an idiot. Why do you ask?

Well, boo. I think I even read that post before, but had completely let it slip my mind (denial probably).

To be fair, jimi, it took me a while to twig.

Well, I'm hoping they refer to the 'other' Doctors at some point too. But I saw a bit of the Behind the Scenes, and RTD pointed out that audiences need to get to know CE in the role before you can go messing about with their affections. So no - what's it called? - regeneration? of Paul McGann either. Perhaps in flashback some time.

I should think they could do a flashback episode fairly soon, to be frank-- I've warmed to CE very quickly, having thought for many years that I'd always be a Tom Baker girl at heart.

It's going to be weird seeing CE in the role - the most prominent role I remember him from is SHALLOW GRAVE.
I mean, between THE RAINBOW and WITHNAIL & I, McGann was a potentially odd fit too, but with Eric Roberts there who would notice.

In some ways I think I'm lucky-- I've heard good things about the shows CE has acted in, without having seen any of them, which makes me receptive to him being good without remembering his face attatched to another name.

This is the first role I've ever seen him in where CE has been anything approaching light, which is a refreshing change. (Jude, anybody? Shallow Grave? Let Him Have It? The grumpy bastard in Elizabeth?) I've always liked him though, so I'm enjoying this a lot.
I'm a Tom Baker-ite too, Am-Chau. I could have been a Jon Pertwee girl, but the show still scared me witless at that stage.
