It sounds interesting but I have no clue where to find it to watch it.

It's on BBCAmerica. It's on hiatus now, but it will be back Easter Sunday.
Also, you can catch previous seasons on Netflix.

I guess I need to re-up our Netflix. We let it die when out debit card expired and hubby was too lazy to put in the new card number so we have been without since June I think.

I LOVE DOCTOR WHO!!!
Seriously, this is one of my all-time favorite shows! The new series is great, and I adore most of the old series! Can't wait for it to come back!
Who's everyone's favorite Doctor? Mine's Peter Davison!

David Tennant all the way!! Did you know Peter Davison is his father-in-law? The Doctor married his daughter and now The Doctor is his father-in-law. HA!  |

Well, it does make for interesting family reunions, what with the 10th Doctor marrying his own daughter and the 5th Doctor being the 10th Doctor's father-in-law. Ah, well. As the Doxtor would say, "Wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey". I'm sure their dinner conversations are interesting.
Peter Davison (The 5th Doctor) is coming to C2E2, a convention that will be held in Chicago in April of this year. I'm hoping to get tickets so I can meet him.

I'm too scared to try out Doctor Who because I know I will be sucked in and it will be yet another obsession for me. But, I do love David Tennant so he's definitely my favorite Doctor. I had gotten hooked on Torchwood, the one on Starz got me hooked and I caught up with the previous ones on Netflix. So, I'm hovering around the Doctor Who universe without being in it.  |

Rocky - if you liked Torchwood, you'll LOVE Who. Plus, you already understand the underlying story (which can be hard to explain) so jump right in!!! And yes, it will take over your life. But no more so than Sherlock.  |

Oh, it's only a matter of time before I dive into Doctor Who. I'll probably end up taking the plunge in the summer when I'll have more time to get lost in it.

If you do, make sure you start with Nine/Eccleston (Series 1). One season of him, 4 seasons of Ten, Captain Jack throughout both of those, and then on to Eleven. You'll laugh, you'll cry (a LOT) and then you'll go certifiably insane. It'll be great! |

Yay! Whovians!
I'll check out your page momentarily, DD!
I am torn re: doctors. I liked the 4th doctor, because he was the first one when I started watching (and you never forget your first doctor, LOL).
But, I loved David Tennant's portrayal and enthusiasm. I am currently enjoying Matt Smith's quirky portrayal, but I am still mourning the 10th doc, LOL.
But, I have to give props to 9th doc, since he started it up again (and had big shoes to fill).
Favorite companions?
