The new Dr. Who had its North American premiere on the CBC television
network Tuesday at 10:00 pm EDT. The first program is set in London
with good production values and special effects. The plot is no weirder
than Michael Jackson, Camilla, Art Bell, and Brother Stair (can you
spell Walterboro) and a great deal more entertaining. If you can handle
the old space-time continuum, quantum physics, BEM's, with a dash of
derring-do the series will run each Tuesday. US viewers can probably
catch the border stations such as Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg,
Windsor, etc.

As far as I can see, the new series didn't get very good reviews in
the Brit papers and THE DOCTOR quit after the first episode for
whatever reason and is going to have to be replaced.

Of course, I'm not going to deal with a religion like Dr. Who fandom.

There was an old BBC Radio 4 series that was recently repeated on
satellite/streaming BBC7 called "the Wordsmiths at Gorsmere" (or "Sex
and Drugs and Beethoven", as I called it), in which very thinly
disguised versions of the Romantic Lake District Poets, in the early
nineteenth century, went through their antics.

Every time I heard a story which seemed too weird, I google'd it and
it turned out to be almost entirely true.

So life (and not only life in the twenty-first century) can definitely
outweird art.
