That's because they spent more than $1.35 on the production values

What's the bizarre part Kris Let me guess this is the first time you saw an episode of Doctor Who , so you have not seen the dummies come to life before or his sonic screwdriver, etc

It will grow on you

Wait until he watches "The Unquiet Dead" episode I loved the way that one was made

Yes the little magic blue flashlight and the living plastic was a little out there. No, way out there... Though I find it funny that even the aliens in the future have a British accent.

Plus after five billion years, I would think we would possess the technology to move the earth to another star. Of course they would have to be willing to move the planet. What's one planet compared to the thousands? Perhaps if they created a replica somewhere else that might be easier, but one has to think about the original. I'd rather like the original more. Plus if we are to keep relying on the monetary value system, we will die out as a people way before the sun were to die.

That whole flat skin woman/boy whatever it was. Just a little out there. After billions of years, she.. It is only 2,000 years old? Come on, transfer your consciousness or something. Though they did say that it was a pure human. Perhaps there are other methods of extending the life of a person while also making people less human.

I would expect people being able to create hosts by then. Or something. Still, if we were to regress and start over several times. Perhaps it's possible.

I realize it is fantasy, but still. I'll have to watch some more to see how it turns out.

The reason everyone talks british in the series is explained in the 2nd episode if you watch You don't know yet, but the tardis and doctor are interwined and one of the things the tardis does is translate any alien language to english as it does with alien writing as well.

You can read up on the series at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Who

As for the flat woman that was a good joke on vanity

I just found the explanation rather funny. But since we are watching it, shouldn't the tardis translate it to our accent or language as well?

It was probably due to the tardises chameleon circuit being stuck in the form of a police box during the 1960s so long that made the english language more promininent

On that thought, why not just create a doorway? If you don't really worry about space/time in the same manor, then why not? Create a frame about five inches deep and just have a door. One could open the door, walk in and that would be that...

Then it would be as rather conspicuous, but if in any other time the police box is going to stand out as well..

I would make a device about the size of your palm, with no obvious access points. Perhaps us teleportation as a means to access it. One need only place it on the ground, push a little remote/button or perhaps sequence of buttons on the device itself or some other means of control and get teleportated inside.

Then again, my plans on time travel differers somewhat.. Perhaps I'll go back and you'll see me on the show. Then again perhaps you already have.

Darn right. If they are that nice you know they either stole your money, did something bad to your food, or are going to send you to hell or something...

Be on the lookout while watching the Doctor Who series for references to something called Bad Wolf

If you watch the end of the world episode, youll hear them mention the bad wolf scenerio and in later episodes youll see it pop up as well It really ties the episodes together really great

If you aren`t careful your eye will be squeezed out of your avatar by your swelling head. At first I thought you were channeling Wesley and his Glisten theories but you didn`t mention that word once. Hmm something to watch I think.

I suggest folks who want the Doctor Who DVD set pre-order it now at This Link as if you do you save about $30

If it is like Amazon Canada expect the price to raise up as I ordered my copy from Canada for 87.49 and now the price to buy it there is 99.96

I expect the U.S. Amazon will raise prices soon as it officially ships as well.

I've just seen up to episode 13.. Hmm. Very interesting, and they address a lot of my issues. And the whole Badwolf thing, nicely done.

One thing does stand out. They use an eye on the tv screens in the episode Badwolf.. Very interesting. Interesting if anyone knows my messenger name and avatar here.
