Yeah, for some reason someone(s) at the Beeb have an extraordinary interest in the Autons and/or the Nestene Consciousness. They chose that episode (of all episodes) to show for the 3rd Doctor, too.

I'd say "Dalek" was when the new series really started to hit its stride and show its potential.

:: In best movie critics voice::

In order to be good, any fiction needs to get you to 'suspend your belief in truth' for the duration of the story. The Jetson's wasn't scifi either.

What can I say, when it comes to scifi I'm picky. smile

But isn't the word SciFi derived from two words: Science and Fiction.

Both have science elements in them, and are fiction. (I know, I know, sorry kids, but The Jetsons aren't real.

So technically they are SciFi... Good SciFi? That is a whole different question. I did like The Jetsons when I was a kid. Dr. Who and The Last Starfighter? Meh...

Yup. I threw that one out there two. Maybe The Last Starfighter and The Jetsons will team up against the Doctor in this epic battle. (Maybe they should have an Epic Rap Battle of History about it. YouTube that if you don't know what it is.)

Here is Doc Brown vs. Dr. Who:

Incidentally, just watched Back to the Future with my kids the other night.

I don't think they understood most of it.

Probably for the best.
