Well sorta. Last night on Dr. Who we got to see that last surviving Dalek. Unfortunately, it was the last soldier it's kind and with no one to give it killing orders...so it offed itself. I guess that kinda depresses the odds of them coming back in another storyline.

I so hope they put these on DVD once the show is over - or atleast it makes it to BBC America!
They're still making new Dr. Who shows??? [img]eek.gif[/img]
Dayyummmnn.... I remember a guy in College who had all of the episodes from the 60's or whatever up to that date, and there had been like 6 different doctors at that point.... how many actors have there been by now????
This is the 9th incarnation of the Dr. Who character
...*ahem*

I thought, a new Doctor Who... cool... but then last week I saw an episode with some big, pot-bellied, hairless aliens on it and thought... "You have seriously got to be fucking kidding me. It's 2005 and you can't find talented individuals to create decent creatures on a low budget? Even I could do better than that. >click<".
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yes, they could have done better with more modern state of the art effects but they wanted to keep the charm of the original campiness of the early shows. The aliens were quite funny in their idea of posing like humans. The only problem I had was the switch from actor in rubber suit to CGI was inconsistent. They lumbered in their big rubber suits but sprinted like cheetahs in the CGI.Quote:

Give it a chance Spore. Last nights Dalek episode was really good. The special effect of the Dalek opening up to reveal the alien inside was quite well done.
That would have been cool... I vaguely remember from the old show something about the Dalek hatchery... I think...
Nobody will ever replace Tom Baker as the Doc.
Ya know... they should do a movie and get Jeff Goldblum to play the Doc.
Damn! I haven't seen an episode of Dr. Who since Tom Baker played him. That was five regenerations ago! [img]eek.gif[/img]
I just looked at the link and I only remember the Doctors up to the fifth one.... with the fourth being the one that stuck in my mind as "The" Doctor.
Damn... this one could be SCULPEY!!!

And the seventh one reminds me of Rowan Atkinson.... now HE would make a great Dr. Who!!!! [img]wink.gif[/img]
Seriously though, will they ever make a big-budget, feature film??? Alan Rickman would make a great Dr. Who.... [i]but knowing hollywood, they'd want a "young" "hip" Doctor.... so they'd use Colin Ferrel, or Orlando Bloom. [img]rolleyes.gif[/img]
