yeah, that was cool. I think it was the kinda tongue-in-cheek, shoestring budget nature of DW that turned me off back when I was a kid, so enamored of superiour special effects in Star Trek, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, etc., was I. That, and the fact that i was probably a bit too unsophisti

Keith, you mentioned Daleks using their plungers as weapons. That took me right off my seat when I saw a Dalek use his to pulp the head of some scientist in "Army of Ghosts". The original DW never would've considered that, which makes the new version not only the best SF series running, but the

(standing ovation) Oddly enough, now that you mention it, Marian, it's the childish factor that's been turning me *off* to Sarah Jane consistently. I can only guess that I accepted such from the show (DW) back then because I was a teenager, and didn't expect much of my TV viewing. And I've nev

I've had 2 weeks of the Doctor Who and Sarah Jane. It's interesting in a way. Someone asked for a comparison of the old Doctor series and the new one a while back. Sarah Jane is very much like the old Doctor Who series. It's obviously for kids. They even have a kid version of "Mickie" from the
