Dr. Who

2006-03-20 Thread The Fool
Probable spoilers:








They added a new counterpoint to the opening theme and rescored it with
synthesizers.  Bleh.  It lacks the truly synthetic and slightly creepy
sound of the the original masterpiece.  This new version has no heart,
no sharpness.  It's kind of bleh.

Seems kind of campy so far.  Especially the background music.

No regenation sequence from eighth doctor to ninth.

A proper Dr. Who episode needs to be 2h (with commercials or 1.5h
-commercials).  You can't tell a proper Dr. Who story in only 45
minutes.

First the put the eye of harmony in the TARDIS in the 96 movie, and now
they've killed off gallefrey and 'all' the time lords (does this
include the Master I wonder?).

Since we're mentioning Dr. Who

Which of the actors was your favorite? I like Jon Pertwee if for
nothing else the looks he threw to the Brigadier when the doctor
thought the Brigadier was being particularly obtuse.


Tom baker, holding a jelly baby to a lackeys throat, and telling him

to

stick em up...

Colin Baker would have been great, if he hadn't gotten the shaft.


What happened to Baker?


They sabatoged him.  They suspended Dr Who for 18 months.  They did
everything they could to get rid of him. They dumped him after the 
season
after the 18 month hiatus.
