It's quite a different animal, and having watched Sara Jane as a bossy Lois Lane mimeo when she was a companion to John Pertwee and Tom Baker, I can say she still retains that character's charm and mild lack of tact :D. It is targeted at kids, but so was the original Dr. Who, and look at how it's evolved after 30 years.<br /><br />K9, BTW ia just AWESOME. I don't think he could hold a show, but he really needs to just show up ALL OVER UK advertising, just because.<br /><br />I will add that you *must* see what Moffet and friends just did with Sherlock.Kimberly Ungerhttp://www.theagiliste.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4625171860671748699.post-27231673959451618642011-01-03T06:31:28.153-08:002011-01-03T06:31:28.153-08:00I think the previous commenter does have some poin...I think the previous commenter does have some point about Sarah Jane Chronicles, but I did enjoy watching it. More importantly, I really enjoyed watching it with my girlfriend's daughter (age 7). It is designed to be more accessible for a younger audience but it doesn't shy away from having some depth to the characters and at least attempting to explore some of the larger themes found in Doctor Who.<br /><br />If I were you I would wait for spring break and watch it with your 9yr old. I can't promise he'll love it but I can't imagine both of you won't get something out of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4625171860671748699.post-48794269707735001122011-01-03T00:39:41.413-08:002011-01-03T00:39:41.413-08:00I still think David is great at Who, but, having s...I still think David is great at Who, but, having said that, Matt Smith (the new doctor) is far superior. Hopefully you'll enjoy his performance. Suffice to say the writing is a ton better in the latest season, too.<br /><br />In regards to Sarah Jane Chronicles, I'd pass. It's a show aimed at kids and because of that, lacks any edge of the main Who show or Torchwood (which I'd love to hear your thoughts on).Daniel Lipscombehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10151874418130377973noreply@blogger.com
