Someone I used to be friends with was fond of saying, "You only like Doctor Who because you lived in Philly - people outside that area don't watch the show."

To him, and to everyone who used to naysay my love of the show?
BITE MY SHINY METAL ASS!

(This video is from Glastonbury 2010 and for those of us who've just watched part two of the current season finale? It's pretty damned fabulous. And also..surprise hot Matt Smith!)

Here's to what gives you pleasure. (And I will watch more Doctor Who eventually!)

So how long have you been a fan? I'm guessing since the 80s, but that's a Wild-Assed Guess.

Seriously.

I guess that person had it figured out all along. The BBC produced a series from 1963 to 1989, Fox produced a TV-movie in 1996, and BBC Wales have made a series since 2005, and it's been seen all around the world all that time, but it's only been for... people... who... live in... Philadelphia.. because.. no one else...

Sorry, I think my brain just disintegrated.

I know. I said that if he played the Doctor wearing an outfit like that, the show'd be vastly different. And people would be expecting him to sparkle or something.

This is patently false and easily disprovable.
