That's interesting to me, Spode, because I just got UNhooked! I enjoyed the original years ago, and I liked the new version with Chris Ecclestone and David Tennant. But when they turned the reins over to this new Doctor, Matt Smith, it did a quick nose-dive as far as I was concerned. But tell me, what do you like about it? What stories catch your interest? Keep in mind I stopped watching about the "Curse of the Black Spot".

I was starting to get into it when I saw one about the Pandorica or somethng. It was completely incomprehensible! too bad really because I rather liked the Romans!

I remember watching that episode and thinking, "Lucius would like this." Have you seen "The Fires of Pompeii"? It was one of the episodes with Donna Noble. They visited the Roman Empire in that one.

Sounds like "The God Complex"! The basic premise was actually not a bad idea. Subject a person to fear over and over again, until he begins to lose confidence in whatever he believes in, whatever he thinks runs the universe whether it's God or luck or even science. Theoretically that person's faith might transfer to the thing that frightens him. It might have worked in a Stephen King novel or a full length movie, where they had time and resources to really frighten the audience. But the episode wasn't nearly scary enough to pull it off. It ended up the thing had to "possess" you pretty much at random anyway. What's the point in all the rooms then?

Supposedly your worst fear is in one of the room bu in an infinite hotel what are the odds youre going to run into it? All you'd have to do is stay out of the rooms, right?
