Doctor Who
 
I'm working with BBC America to promote the new series of Doctor Who with Matt Smith. Wanted to make sure that everyone is ready for the premiere on April 17 at 9/8c. It's going to be an extended episode with limited commercial interruption!

Be sure to get previews, interviews and more straight from the source, the official site: http://bbcamerica.com/shows/doctor-who/

[very quietly] Um. Here in the UK we're all very excited as it's on tomorrow night. Though I'm a bit concerned as I just found out that we have a guest staying... I hope she likes Doctor Who... [/very quietly]

[very quietly] My lips are sealed. And with Doctor Who in mind that is really quite scary. [/very quietly]

I think the next Dr. Who should be that Mr. Bean guy.

Oh man! I wish we could pick up the new episodes. All we can get are older episodes aired on PBS. :(

Of course, I was thrilled when we found that we could pick up Doctor Who on a new PBS channel that we started receiving after the digital switchover. They were in the middle of Series 2 with David Tennant. My daughter wandered in and asked curiously what I was watching. ("Rise of the Cybermen") From that moment she was hooked (a new generation of Doctor Who lovers is born!) So, I should just be thankful for what we can view! Plus, we've been able to view Series 1 episodes via Netflix! As a matter of fact, we just got the movie "The Five Doctors" in the mail yesterday, so I can show my daughter the older re-generations that I remembered watching. My first Doctor was Tom Baker.

We got through Series 3 and then the PBS channel went back to airing Series 2, so we got to see the first episodes of that season that we had missed when we first discovered it. I wonder if & when they'll ever get to airing Series 4. :chinscratch:

BTW- thanks for the new link teamplayer and Welcome to MobileRead!


... Mr. Bean? :eek:

Is Torchwood finished or should I keep it on my record list, just in case?

You could always hold out for Torchwood USA.

I dunno, dumping brave cute gap-toothed Gwen for a generic American blonde will take some awfully good writing to overcome.

BTW, I saw the guy who played Capt Jack as a villain in something the other day, nothing interesting enough for me to remember the title. He's looking sort of crinkly for a guy who is supposed to be immortal.

Same thing for Spike the vampire in his unholy religious leader role on Caprica. (I keep watching hoping that anything interesting will occur.)

It's weird to see these actors playing age-appropriate roles after being icons for eternal youth.
