I know this is easier said than done, but are there any plans to create a Dr Who section on the sadgeezer site?? I know it would be a mammoth task to cover episodes, so maybe just a section on the doctors and who played them. It’s just does not seem right Dr Who is not on here !
Love the site by the way – best sci-fi site on the net by a long way!
I e-mailed SadGeezer the [i]Doctor Who[/i] guide I assembled (along with a bunch of other sci-fi junk) a while ago with a suggestion to create new guides.

Dr. Who and I have a long history. I blame ( or maybe thank) my Mom for a lifetime addiction to sci-fi-tv since I was watching Dr. Who as a toddler in the UK instead Sesame Street like my peers at home in the States. I rediscovered him as a teenager on PBS and hosted Dr. Who nights in my college dorm. What I want to know is this: are any episodes currently being aired in the US or are videos available? And how many Doctors had they created by the time the series ended? I quit watching after the Dr. with the stalk of celery in his lapel began airing.
There have been eight Doctors:
1. William Hartnell
2. Patrick Troughton
3. Jon Pertwee
4. Tom Baker
5. Peter Moffitt a.k.a. Peter Davison
6. Colin Baker
7. James Kent-Smith a.k.a. Sylvester McCoy
8. Paul McGannMy all-time favorite is Davison (the celery guy), but Tom Baker is the most popular among fans (for some reason). The show ran for 26 seasons (1963-1989) with a total of 169 episodes (672 segments). There have been 21 movies (T.V. and video) within the “actual” [i]Doctor Who[/i] universe, plus two films starring Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin from [i]Star Wars: A New Hope[/i]) and a parody starring Rowan Atkison (Mr. Bean). Next to [i]Star Trek: The Next Generation[/i] [i]Doctor Who[/i] is the second most popular science fiction television series. Perhaps the most memorable element in the show was the Daleks.

life dont talk to me about life – HHGTTGThanks Dalektek790. You are a fountain of Whovian knowledge [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] What is the name of the Rowan Atkinson parody? It sounds like something I’d like.
The Doctor who parody starring Rowan Atkinson is called *CURSE OF THE FATAL DEATH* if I remember correctly.
It’s a scream.
