I've seen the first two episodes so far, and the one on Saturday is a historical and looks good. I have to say I wasn't expecting much, having been a fan of the original series since I was about four, but I've loved it so far.
Weird thing is most of my Dr Who discussion group seem hooked as well, and I expected about half of them to hate it. It's a shame Chris Eccleston's not going to continue on in the role beyond the first series, as I'm really liking him as the Doctor.
On a weird note - I loved the 'tree people' in episode two - like super-evolved Ents

I caught it the other night too on the CBC. I think this one is very tongue in cheek compaired to the other 'Who' series in the past. I rather find the latest Doctor very attractive(and here I thought Peter Davidson had broken my heart  -not my favourite Doctor though) and yes, its a shame he wants to move on.
I watched the eppie with a very non-sci fi type person...he thought it was really funny and good and watched the entire thing!
Love that the exterior of the Tardis is always the same and glad Rose joined the Doctor(hey, I would have in a heart beat! )
Cheers

I have joined the obsessed and have to admit that I spent three hours after the second one was transmitted, having a scarily involved conversation if Jabe was an Entwife or not. She so was.
Hoom!

Can't say I've seen the new ones yet. Loved the old series so I'll go and find it.
Is the TARDIS still a telephone booth?

Yupe, the same outside but inside, the Doctor has had a TLC 'While You Were Out' makeover.
Cheers

I had heard about them coming out with a new series of Dr. Who (loved it when i was a kid) but haven't seen it advertised. Do you think itwill show in the states?
Excited at the possibilities now that technology has advanced.
