Re: [scifinoir2] "Dr. Who" Marathon on Scifi Channel

good point, and funny that you mentioned that one scene with Eccleston. As a complete novice at the time, with absolutely no knowledge of DW, I noticed that expression too. And you're right: given that DW can sometimes seem silly to the uninitiated, i think a more solemn, grim Doctor was the per

Re: [scifinoir2] "Dr. Who" Marathon on Scifi Channel

I wouldn't call my feelings for Baker's Doctor a lack of enthusiasm. For example, my favorite DW ep of all time is "Logopolis", Baker's last run in the role. Baker brought an infectiious enthusiasm to the role that really hadn't been there before, and hasn't really been since (Tennant is trying

Re: [scifinoir2] "Dr. Who" Marathon on Scifi Channel

i know you discussed before in detail, but can't remember what you said. Just about every non-fan of Dr. Who thinks of Tom Baker as *the* doctor. Many people don't understand the concept of the show, so thought Baker was the only doctor. And so many people who are fans always reference him as w

Leela was one of the Fourth Doctor's companions. She was from a planet where a survey team had crashed, and two distinct societies had arisen in the afte rmath, a high-tech one and a primitive one. Leela was from the latter. Ran around in a deerskin dress and boots, showing more leg that the Roc

Seven is Sylvester McCoy, Ten is David Tennant (though you knew that already), Four is Tom Baker, Five is Peter Davison, Nine you know to be Christopher Eccleston. First was William hartnell, Second was Patrick Troughton, Third was Jon Pertwee. Sixth (commonly known as He of Whom No Whovian Spea

Who's Leela? do you remember the Brit series "UFO"? We discussed it a few days ago. check the link i posted for a blast from the past. The women in that show with the fishnet tops and lavender hair are something else. (To be fair, the men wear fishnet tops too, but that's just wrong!)

Re: [scifinoir2] "Dr. Who" Marathon on Scifi Channel

Keith, the new Who has a vibe that draws adult viewers in more readily than the original series did. Despite the fact that, as was pointed out to me yesterday in the Skiffy DW board, that the old show actually had more scantily-clad women than the newer one does. In "Tooth and Claw", Queen Victo

Its interesting that you brought up The two-part penultimate episode is the one where my husband stopped watching, and I still watch, but I don't enjoy it as much. While I think Tennant is a good Doctor, I sometimes miss Christopher Eccleston. Can't really put my finger on it, but you rai
