That was our stopping place, too. I was addicted to Dr Who from the start of the redone series. We had a lot of the older ones because a friend’s husband had died and he’d collected all the old ones on Beta. So we bought ALL her tapes at a dollar per. Husband never transferred them. Just watched.
Husband also broke our TV connection completely. We only watch online, if not on DVD. We subscribe to Viki.com and IQ.com which are asian drama channels. Asian dramas, besides being FAR better than American TV, are also MASSIVELY cheaper. Usually about 10/mo.
The restart of the DOCTOR WHO series, wen compared to the early ones ( the last Doctor of the original wasn’t much good at all ) leaves a very great deal to be desired! They took the
“fun” out of it.
