Calling all Doctor Who fans

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006

Am I the only one in my circle of friends who’s a Doctor Who fan? The new season’s about to start (in Canada) and it seems everyone I try and talk to about it is either clueless or apathetic toward it. If you’re a sci-fi fan and you haven’t checked out the series, you should. I mean, check out what they’ve done with the Cybermen in the upcoming season!

C’mon guys, it’s the Doctor!!!

Doctor who?

Sorry - couldn’t resist making a who’se on first joke. :P

Btw, isn’t Dr. Who the longest running TV series in the history of television?

Luke: Well the funny thing is, that’s exactly where the name comes from. If you watch the show you’ll notice that he always introduces himself as “The Doctor” to which most people reply “Doctor Who?” and that’s where the name comes from. Wikipedia has a more comprehensive explanation.

It is one of the longest running sci-fi series, but I’m not sure if it’s the longest running show ever. :-)

[...] As I’ve stated in the past and on my about page, I was a part of the demo scene back in the ’90s, and as I again mentioned yesterday, I’m a big Doctor Who fan. Two seemingly separate universes. Both geeky in their own rite, but both really separate universes nonetheless. [...]
