Interesting without being spectacular.

Never before has anything promised so little and delivered even less.

In the words of my younger brother .. "What the heck was that supposed to be?"

It was terrible. I want my hour back.

It's an over-hyped kids' show!

That's lasted 50 years and is still popular throughout the world.

It doesn't compare to the original series in my humble opinion. So, I prefer the 60s & 70s stories.

I'd never say it was ever for kids, though. It never was. Just a family aimed show.

If I had to pick a favourite Science Fiction series, it wouldn't even be the 60s & 70s series either.

I'd plump for something that was less fantasizing. Like "The Incredible Hulk" with Bill Bixby or "The Invaders". Something with a possibility. Tapping into the hidden strengths of Gamma Radiation & people from out of space, that looked just like us. It would be nice to think that "The Invisible Man" a la David McCallum could be a possibility too...but I doubt it.

I'm sure the hilarious double act between the Dr and the forgetful Sontaran had all the 5 yr olds in stitches

I didn't enjoy it. After an excellent first 3 minutes it quickly became a confused mess with the joke Sontaran and meandering plot.
