Review of Doctor Who

Doctor Who (1996 TV Movie)
7/10
I thought it had potential!
3 March 2002
Some people hold on to the past too hard. They forget that Dr. Who, being a TV series, had some excellent episodes and some really, really awful ones. I think the FOX revamp of our favorite time-lord was interesting! It had the class of starting off with the last Doctor of the British show and then led us into a movie that combined the story line of the British show with an American spin.

I think it worked very well... and while die-hard Who fans may not have approved, I think this show needed to be given a chance... the pilot certainly had a good start... and the Master was never cooler than he was in this pilot.

The movie had flaws... but it was still better than a lot of other shows on US television... and let's not forget Dr. Who no longer is being made in England... and I think this would have been a perfectly acceptable continuation of the series.

I wish Fox would reconsider bringing it back!
