A couple of nice article links there Jazz,thanks.
I notice Dr.Who was mentioned early on in the thread....
I'm a huge fan of the franchise,not so much the newer ones but most certainly the 1970s/80s series'
I only watch the modern ones where the villians are the Daleks and on occasion the Weeping Angels.
The problem I have with the new ones are that each story lasts an hour not much to get your teeth into.
The old ones were 30minute episodes which ran over an average of six episodes.
That said, its still hard to knock a series that is still running after some 50+ years...longevity speaks volumes on its own for anything beit actors,musicians etc....
