Hmmm, Peter Cushing never actually played The Doctor, he played a character called Doctor Who...
But, they were great films for their time and they did have daleks in...

there was meant to be a story at some point that would tie Peter cushing into the doctor who universe, but for argument sake he was called doctor who and he did have a TARDIS and he did fight and defeat the Daleks.
what more do you want.
Seeing as we are linking cool YouTube thingys I feel it would be negligent of me not to link to the Curse of Fatal Death at this point...

For me (and probably most people) how much you enjoy Dr Who depends greatly on how much you like the current incarnation of the Dr. Sadly for me I think Matt Smith blows.
Ahem, that was even in reply to your post.
I actually thought Eccleston was great as the Dr. Would've loved to have seen more than one season of him.

I wonder why the Death Star isn't on that list for comparison?
Oh yeah.

Valen went after the wrong space station...
Just goes to show that bigger is not always better.. Now if the empire had stuck to the original plans and not tried to build a bigger Death Star it would have been completed in RotJ, and we could have seen a test firing on Endor........ Then we'd have been spared those terrible Ewok movies.
Now to add to the conversation, Farscape!
How could any of you forget that one. It had the stupidity of Lexx, the drama of B5 and the characters of Star Trek. The best Sci Fi of the last 20 years.
For mass consumption Sci Fi, Stargate did pretty well. I was really begining to enjoy SGU and the 2nd half of season 2 was some of the best SG. Then the "syfy" channel canned it. Though how they can be called "Syfy" boggles the mind, since reality TV and wrestling shows really don't belong in a Sci Fi channel. That being said new program this April:

Defiance. Seems they are launching an MMO with the same title.
Other decent Sci Fi:

Falling Skies. Is actually a pretty decent survival Sci Fi programme. Season 3 looks like it could be a hum dinger.

Part 1 of BSG: Blood and Chrome. You can find all the webisodes linked from this one. Have heard rumours that they will release this one as a proper pilot movie with added scenes.
It already looks better than the Caprica series.

LOVE fallen Skies, and I had all the Deluxe box sets of Farscape..
It was the 20th Century bloke in the futuristic setting that was captivating, and Scorpious... Only downside... puppets!!
Also coming soon Continuum Future cop blown back in time with future terrorists, and Re-Volution (re evolution) where all the power cuts off FOR EVER.
Both reasonable attempts.. good bits......bad bits.. and some poor poor bits.
