RTD has expended his creativity on season one, season two was a dissapointment and the scripts he wrote for season three were just tripe.

Look at the other episodes written by other script writers, ie. Blink.

There is still loads of life left in Dr Who, just not Russell - move on !

Agreed, this season was crap compared to season 2.

I loved the gasmask episode in season 1, that was just scary as fuck :p

I don't know about moving on completely. There could be some thing he could add to the Who-verse, but I will admit that the writing of this series has for the most part been very poor. There were a few nice parts in the episode (like the fact it's one year later, and the end with the revelation about Captain Jack (Such a great character, seriously)). Blink was a great episode, and they all have been entertaining in their own way. There's still a lot more to the Doctor though.

Oh, and as to who won. Technically I would call it a draw.

Sad thing is, even if its shit (Though i still find it compelling to watch) its still the best thing on TV currently. That and top gear are the only good thing from even having a TV.

Utter bollox TV these days, bring back the old game shows (Bullseye, catchphrase, Crystal maze) and some decent programming/documentaries etc.

We get stuff like Paramount and a couple of US based shows. But nothing like they do, ontop of we get the good couple of month break.

I tend to download my shows (Oh QQ, anyone with a net connection > 128K does it) so I don't really get the gap.. Only UK (UK only) shows worth watching are ended (season wise). Stuff like Top Gear etc.

Depends on the channel :)

Channels 4 and 5 are mostly american(Simpsons, CSI, Friends, Ugly Betty etc)

BBC1 is mainly your big budget dramas, BBC2 mainly your "offtopic" stuff(like science, Top Gear, ie stuff thats not normal:p) and ITV is mainly reality shows like X Factor

As for those with cable, Sky and Feeview, it also depends what channel

There is lots of good TV if you actually look for it outside prime time. The problem is that it is spread across alot of genres. A year ago I was bored shitless with prime time TV so I started to record alot of stuff that was on either before or after prime time as well as the odd prime time gem, stuff like...

Respectable
Shameless
The F Word
Dragon's Den
Top Gear
Cooking in the Danger Zone
The Friday Night Project
Life on Mars
Peep Show
Extras
The Apprentice
The IT Crowd
Star Stories
TV Burp
That Mitchell & Webb Look
Swinging


...and I could go on.

Well have to say i liked it, it might have been better, but that was as good as it needed to be for me.

He didn't have that much fun though as he should, loved the ending being all "What...what? WHAT?!" cause that's the kinda parts i love about the show.
