"D" is for "DOCTOR WHO"

Yeah, it was almost Def Leppard.

DOCTOR WHO is more than just science fiction. It's science magic. It's fun, it's nuts and - most importantly - it goes on forever.

Yes, I'm a big proponent of knowing when to call it quits. But the fact that the character can regenerate and change means that the show can, too. It has a chance to recharge, reimagine and reemerge into something new and old and better than before.



Once again, I'm late to the party. I caught the occasional episode as a kid on PBS, the ones that starred that guy who looked like Bob Dylan on the BLONDE ON BLONDE cover (Tom Baker). I didn't realize how good it was.



English nuttiness on a budget, time/dimensional traveling police call boxes and Freema Agyeman - it's magic, all right.
