My first Who was the Tom Baker serial The Brain of Morbius. This would be sometime around 1982 (yep, I'm old), during a summer I was staying at my aunt & uncle's and right when I was leaning hard on Star Trek as methadone between Star Wars movies. After a brief chuckle at Morbius' henchman being named Condo, and getting a quick primer on the Time Lords from my uncle, I was hooked (and apparently on a pro-tier serial, with a lot of heavy series mythology and graphic violence). From then on, Four was My Doctor, Sarah Jane was My Companion, and after I got home I was disappointed to discover that my local PBS affiliate only showed DW on Friday nights. I was really thrilled to see the Sisterhood of Karn from these episodes show up in the Paul McGann short for the 50th. I think that's the least irritated I've been with Moffat since "Blink."

So you're saying it's time to pitch my spec script for a dark and gritty Space: 1999 reboot?

Nero Wolfe, modern day, and keep the mostly-ensemble cast approach that the A&E series used. goddammit, I miss that show.

Davros1 posted:George Lucas changed the design of Han Solo's ship because it resembled the Eagle too much. It became the blockade runner at the beginning. I've always been impressed with the capsules-and-girders design of the Eagle. It just screams "utilitarian human-built workhorse." I believe it also influenced the design of the human fleet ship in the Star Control games, though those were meant to be larger to house nuclear missiles and point-defense lasers. (Scale wasn't much of a priority in the early 90's PC gaming scene.)
