This is great science fiction, great human storytelling, great acting.... Christopher Eccleston is such an excellent actor, it's sad this is his only Dr. Who season.

Bought this for my son. He was very happy with it and rated it a five. He said he can't wait until he can get season two.

The return of Doctor Who to television was well worth the wait. Christopher Eccles as the ninth incarnation of The Doctor is a refreshing change from the posh and sometimes haughty language of previous doctors. Eccles's Doctor is more down-to-earth in language and approach to the character, making him eminently more approachable.
By carving out his own niche and making the character his own, Eccles manages to not only take the show in more fun and interesting directions, but his incarnation does not detract from the actors who previously played the role. Although there are faint echoes of Tom Baker's zany and often mischievous persona, they echoes are very faint indeed. Casting aside the posh accent and adding an element of competence bordering at times on mania, Eccles brings new life into an old favorite and ushers in a new era of intelligent and inventive writing that retains the best (and sometimes hokiest) of the old era.
Bravo! And welcome back.

My family recently discovered Dr. Who by chance and was quickly hooked. We had not seen any of the original shows, only parts of Series 2 and were somewhat hesitant about a "different doctor." Series 1 was outstanding! Now we can't decide which Doctor we like better. We had to force ourselves to watch only one episode at a time so that we could spread the pleasure out. Season 1 is very well written, acted, and produced. I cannot believe that it is a children's show; it can be enjoyed on many levels. I enjoyed the gradual unfolding of the relationship between Rose and the Doctor and also the frequent glimpses into the Dr.'s complex emotions. The series sets the framework for several recurring themes and characters making it a must for people like us who are new fans. I also enjoy that the show has no bad language, and minimal, subtle sexual content. The overall message of a "better way to live" is a great thing to share with your family; a nice contrast to the narcissism prevelent in so much modern entertainment.

Wow, it's wonderful to finally know what goes on behind the scenes. The first disk is a "behind the scenes" tour of how this show is produced. How all the aliens are invented & created in a 3-d manner.
