Dr Who Season 6 is now available through Netflix DVD. The other seasons are on instant Netflix. This is a terrific ride. The season starts with Doctor Who's Death, then goes back and explains things on the road to this event. There are some incredible turns in the general plot, for example we see the Doctor's marriage to River Song, discover who are her parents, and are introduced to the "Silence." The Silence are evil creatures who you don't remember when you are not looking at them. They are like a great conspiracy, manipulating things without anyone knowing about them. They are still around at the end, and it is the Silence who have decided the Doctor must die.
This series has a greater use of poetry which is highly effective. It also has a way of bringing back old characters. In this case the characters are often old nemesis who now owe the Doctor. This is especially true with the kidnapping of Amy and Rorie's baby girl. She was conceived in the TARDIS which causes her to have time lord characteristics.
This is a show you have to see. I watched Doctor Who as a youth, staying up late to watch it on PBS. The plots and stories were fun then, but the special effects were always lacking. That is no longer a problem, and the stories have just gotten more intriguing. I LIKE DOCTOR WHO.
