The Resume

Why Doctor Who (TV Series) might be annoying:

    Each episode looked like it was made for about $1.95 (laughable rubber monsters, toy spaceships, shaky camera work, gravel-pit locations, etc.).
    It couldn't decide whether it was for adults or kids.
    It was criticized for its extreme violence.
    It featured horrendous over-acting from the supporting cast.
    The Doctor wore ridiculous costumes (14-foot scarves, frilly shirts, plaid pants, celery stalk on lapel, etc.).
    When the first Doctor, William Hartnell, decided to leave the show, the writers cooked up a 'regeneration' gimmick to keep the series going.
    It is a continuity headache, with writers routinely ignoring or revising important details from show history.
    When Colin Baker took over the role, it went into a tailspin and never really recovered.
    A 1996 attempt to revive the show on American TV was an utter failure.
    Like 'Star Trek,' It has legions of geeky fans all over the world.

Why Doctor Who (TV Series) might not be annoying:

    It successfully combined sci-fi, comedy, horror and mystery genres.
    Because the show has almost no budget, the writers had to compensate with inventive, intelligent scripts.
    The mutual appeal to adults and kids is an asset.
    Although the show was violent, the Doctor solved problems with intelligence, not force.
    The Doctor was accompanied by attractive (and sometimes scantily clad) female companions.
    It is the longest-running sci-fi show in television history.
    BBC announced a revival of the series with acclaimed actor Christopher Eccleston (2004).
