I've watched all the new ones and while there's a few great episodes ('Blink' is one of my all time favorite for any show ever), I wouldn't classify the show as great. Its good, but I left it a little disappointed.

"Classic" Doctor Who ended in the late 80s/early 90s. You guys are seeing Dr Who with 10000 AAs and Station Cash :(

Forget all you WHO bashers, the show is awesome, yeah he always gets into hairy situations and wins in the end, but that's what Dr. Who does. Plus it is always changing, we are on our 13th Doctor i think, every Doctor brings new things to the show.

Yeah in the end its always gonna be a win in the last second kind of show, but don't all shows do this. If you weren't close to crying after what happened to Rory and Emilia, then you have no love for the show, and should not be watching...end of story. :cool:

See this is why they need to get on board and make the series about Worf. The SciFi genre has gotten so bad since star trek has been out of the picture that people actually think the new Dr. Who is a respectable SciFi series.

Friend is a really big Dr.Who fan and invited us to watch a Dr.Who special at a movie theater. It was like a TV show shown at a regel a week early. The event was funny lots of fangirls dressing up. The movie was kinda strange it was about a "forgotten" doctor and then all the other doctors blew up a planet at the end.

I've watched the series on and off, it reminds me of watching B movies on the sci fi channel, It's charming but I don't know how people can take it serious. I think it's because girls think they are cute.

It kind of reminds me of Lexx, but even Lexx was better. there have been so many better science fiction shows in the past couple of decades that DR Who can't hold a candle to, yet people are like "Dr Who is god's gift!"

Michael Dorn said he'd love to do it too, sass there's 0 interest in the idea production side. They should just man up and give Seth MacFarlane a shot at it. It couldn't be worse than Enterprise/most of Voyager and it'd easily have more Sci-fi/less fantasy than the Bad Robot stuff.

Nah. MacFarlane would just crap it up. Enterprise was pretty horribad. Do not EVER speak against Voyager though. One of the best!
I just can't believe that they made those two abominations of Star Trek movies and did t ride the popularity to some sort of new series. Wasted effort on that one. Bad move.

MacFarlane would have better potential to do a good job than anyone else on the market IMO, he's a true fan and worked directly with the writers on several occasions, particularly on enterprises 4th season (you know, the good season).

Voyager was pretty certifiably god awful, it had its amazing moments I'll grant you but overall it had too many plot inconsistencies and omg Janeway would of not stayed in the captain's chair if she pulled half of that shit in federation space! (Tuvix much?)
Then there's the nurturing of the Borg. I loved seeing them so often but they explained literally everything about them by the end. Half of the charm of the Borg as an adversary was that they were an indescribable force of nature.

The new movies were great, though they were terrible start trek movies, it's important to make the distinction that it was essentially star wars in a star trek setting.

To each their own I guess. But I enjoyed Voyager as much as I enjoyed DS9. Of course Janeway pulled all sorts of crap. She was stuck in the Delta Quadrant. Plus,she was just the female Kirk. Kirk did all sorts of.disturbing stuff, especially in the books.
The fact that you have to make a star wars defense for the new star trek movies just tells me how bad they actually are.

If she was the female Kirk she would of said yes to Q and had their ship zipped home.

It's less of a star wars defense and more of understanding the pitiful excuse of popular culture.

I thought enterprise sucked when i first watched it, ended up re-watching it again once all the seasons were on netflix and it was pretty good. Just don't follow archer as the top dog in the show, I ended up liking reed/tucker more than anyone else on the show

I found that voyager was kind of an ugly ship (not a fan of the intrepids), replace janeway with a dude, (sp) chakotai with a female or a different male cast member, kill off neelix, keep tom paris and you've got a good show.

If a show has characters that annoy you, that means its most likely a good show. You have invested in it emotionally to the point that you are liking/disliking characters and replacing them in your head. They've got you at that point. Watched Dr. Who for the first two seasons of the new BBC version, couldn't have cared less who was in it or what happened after that point. I was done.

You're smoking too much crack. I liked the plot of voyager, there were some pretty good story lines. But most of the characters were terrible.

Of the new series of dr. who, it wasnt good until about the 2nd seasons with tennant, watch through to the last season with him and then you start to appreciate the first two seasons more.

Except the most annoying thing is when characters don't entice me to "invest" emotionally, and that's usually why I'm replacing them in my head.

Oh its definitely better and I don't even know what crack smells like. Anyone who considers Dr Who is quality SciFi needs to have their head examined or simply doesn't understand what science fiction is.

Claiming Dr Who is good is like claiming that BS glitter, emo-vampire crap on my-9 or the twilight movies are quality vampire fiction. Its complete and udder crap and does nothing but hurt the entire genre.
