    I miss Doctor Who in the 80's

    I like the new series and it's very popular but it don't have the magic of Dr Who in the 80's ...

    I'm not talking about only Dr Who's produced in the 80's --- I'm talking about being a fan in the 80's

    Does that make sense ?

    So you're an 80 year old Doctor Who fan?

    I was hardcore Who back in the late 80's. In two fanclubs (Two Hearts Ltd and The Unofficial Harry Sulivan Fan Club), edited the newsletter for one of them for a bit, we helped man the phones for PBS pledge drive & worked the DW USA Tour (a trailer with a TARDIS console, many foes behind glass, K-9 and Bessie!), twice helped promote DW and the club in local papers.

    I never did that much for Trek!

    I know what you mean. I used to stay up to watch it on PBS every weekend growing up. I'll never forget how much fun I had. I always wanted some of that Doctor Who swag they offered for being a donor to help with funding the channel.

    There was a feeling of Doctor Who taking America in the `80's; exploding on the scene.

    I disliked most of the episodes of Doctor Who that were made in the 80s, unfortunately...It got to the point where bad episodes far outnumbered the good...But I was a fan in the 80s.

    Yes, it makes perfect sense. I agree.
