It's a bird, it's a plane...

It's an old british Police Box!?!?

You knew it couldn't be kept away from us for long, didn't you? The new Doctor Who series that ran its first season over the pond last year is coming to the best night of television: sci-fi fridays. That's right, starting March 19th (check your local listings), the Doctor makes his return to America. And this time there's no playing around. It isn't some cheesy Fox movie that sucked for us Doctor Who fans and for anybody else that watched it. No, this time it is for real, and you don't have to wait until 12:30am on a Sunday night to watch it on PBS. No interuptions from telethoners asking you to support great programing like this. You just get all of season one, in order, each week for three months.

Hopefully Sci-Fi will get season two next year. I have seen the whole of season one and it is fantastic. Of course, I have been a Who fan since I was a kid, but I think even those who have never seen it will get a kick out of it and those who might not have liked it in the past might also check it out.

So Sci-Fi hits the mark again. Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, the ever surprising Battlestar Gallactica and now Doctor Who! What will they think of next!?!?
