Anyone catching Doctor Who on SciFi tonight?

Cell phone is turned off.
Friends told that they will be killed if they come by between 9 and 11.
Order in for a pizza to be delivered at 8:50.
VCR and DVS set to record.

Yeah, I'd say that I ready to watch.

Excellent show! I loved it! It captured the original feel - can't wait to see what happens! Cassandra, the last human really grossed me out tho.

Yes but as Rose said, she really wasn't human. I liked the Forest of Chem (sp?) and how the Doctor appears to be the last Time Lord.

Someone said that in the 2nd season with David Tennant their going to have K-9! Can't wait for that!

Sarah? 4th Doctor's Sarah?

 

[Lubiana]

Yeah! The lady who always squawked like a chicken! (Don't get me wrong, I really loved her but she did squawk like a chicken sometimes!)

I also enjoyed these characters not that I would call Cassandra human either. But i wasn't too happy that he was the last time lord. I don't know why I was bummed out but I was. considering that I've seen each and every episode from Hartnell on up to McCoy (missed some of those), I liked that he was part of 'active' race of beings.

I also didn't like how they handled his 'regenerations', in other words, there were none that we could discern. The doctor regenerated 8 times prior to this guy and most of them would have showed up during research like that other guy did. He showed each one looking the same for like 100 years. But we fans know better and that was a let down. I would love to have seen them show photos of each of the past doctors just to provide some show continuity.

Other than that...I enjoyed it. I got such a tickle out of hearing the old TARDIS noises and the theme song. I liked this doctor though missed the flambouyant or unique costumes he wore in the past.

Yeah! I thought they were going to do the same thing! I was very dissappointed when they didn't.

Such great characters they were too, both on the show and in person. Tom Baker was sort of like his on screen character. Colin Baker was very different but extremely nice. Sylvester McCoy was a real hoot! Patrick Troughton was very very pleasant (though, sadly, he was not feeling all that well at that time and passed away very soon thereafter).

FAVORITE DOCTOR anyone??

Mine would be Doctor #6 (Colin Baker) but Doctor 7 (McCoy) is a very close second.

I think you mean Tom Baker
He is probably the most well-known doctor
Watched that show as a kid too!

Nope, I meant Colin Baker (Doctor #6) who I met several times in person. Tom Baker was Doctor #4. You are right. He was the best known and probably the most liked of all the doctors. But I still liked Colin Baker the best.
