In defense of Doctor Who, there are a number of back references and wiki entries that can bring one up to speed rather quickly. Aside from being a "dropper" show, it is original content and very creative considering the junk on domestic (US) TV. I like many of the British productions because of that.


Doctor Who is hands down one of the greatest shows ever made.

My problem with shows you can watch in any order...is that with no real continuity to them, a storyarc never really progresses; it can get boring really fast.

Serial shows are all I care to watch

Dexter
Monster
Battlestar Galactica
Breaking Bad
Spartacus
Deadwood
The Wire

and so on....

I like story and character arcs. It really gives the writers a real chance to build characters and intricate plotlines. When everything is neatly wrapped up in 40 minutes, it just seems so shallow.....
