Of course I don't have work I should be doing. Whatever would make you say that? : comments.

This is the comment thread that never eeeeeends...
1.5. The regeneration thing actually started out of necessity - the original actor who played the Doctor, William Hartnell, wanted to leave in 1966, so instead of ending the series when he left, the producers just wrote in his regeneration and kept on going. It's one of the reasons I think the show kept going as long as it has; whenever the Doctor's actor gets worried about typecasting, he can bow out and someone else can take his place without throwing the whole series out of joint.
2. *glees with you* I'm kind of looking forward to you seeing it too, sad as that may sound. And remember that you can feel free to ask me any questions you please about it.
2.5. *ahem* Well, then. There's a slightly out-of-date FAQ here (http://nitro9.earth.uni.edu/doctor/FAQ/Faq_1.txt) (it only covers up to the beginning of the new series) and a Newcomer's Guide here (http://nitro9.earth.uni.edu/doctor/newbie2004.html) (also only covers up to the beginning of the new series, but recaps the entirety of Classic Who in a nutshell). The Doctor Who Reference Guide (http://www.drwhoguide.com/who.htm) summarizes basically every Who story ever, including novels and audio dramas. Then there's the Official BBC page (http://www.bbc.co.uk/doctorwho/"), which has decent episode summaries and production trivia, especially for the Classic series, but which I honestly haven't found myself using too often. And then, of course, there's Doctor Who on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Who), which is an almost exhaustive resource but is rife with spoilers for the new series if that concerns you. It also contains information on almost every Classic serial, every companion, every monster...it's really quite easy to waste hours in there, as I've done on several occasions. :)
3. See, that's kind of what happened to me - I was so intent on becoming a writer all through elementary, middle, and most of high school...and then I took high school Bio and screwed everything up. XD I got so hooked on the class that I couldn't just not persue Bio after that, at least not without careful consideration.
Screw you, microbio. This is all your fault. >P
