I was a huge Doctor Who fan when I lived in Madison. They ran marathons every pledge drive because the whovians were the biggest contributers. I saw some of all of the doctors up until the guy nobody liked...number 7 maybe? I saw none of McCoy except in the movie with McGann.
Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Could it be Colin Baker? Frizzy hair? Bad regeneration? Horse's ass?
He has claimed that the producers *wanted* him to be that way.
He has softened a bit with age, I've noticed. Like someone's grandfather.
Yes, Colin Baker was the one noone liked! I wish I had caught more of the new series but I'm looking forward to catching up on BBCA's airings.
I am bummed that I forgot to watch Mega Snake before I went to DragonCon. Not only was Shanks there, but Feedback, who won the first season of "Who Wants to be a Superhero?" was also there, and had a cameo in the movie.
(I got a Fat Momma comic.)

Aw, I always felt bad for him. They gave him the most incredibly stupid outfit, poor bugger, and the Beeb was starting to be sort of embarassed by the show and...but I thought he was a pretty good Doctor. It was just that the show had been going so long that it was no longer cool, and then there was that STUPID coat...and I think they even gave him Bonnie Langford as a companion, iirc.
Did we see this? - Doctor Who taking a break - season five not 'til 2010.
I was just coming to comment on that!
I mean, I'm chuffed as all hell at the possibility of seeing Tennant play Hamlet opposite Patrick Stewart's Claudius (and, damn, am I ever going to try to get my arse back home to catch it) but...for the love of heaven! WTFF, Auntie Beeb? WTFF???? I, this - I mean, for fuck's sakes, you can't just put a show on a year-long sabbatical!!! With 3 crappy specials!!!
....except you can.

I suppose I should be glad that the Beeb isn't more commercially-minded. I like that about them. But still.
WTFF???

Tell that to HBO and Sci-Fi.
Tennant play Hamlet opposite Patrick Stewart's Claudius
Gleeb!
