Who would have thought?
Doctor Who - The Beginning, is a DVD box set that all fans of the series MUST have. Starting from the very first episode, "An Unearthly Child" the Doctor has some unwelcomed guests on the Tardis and because of what they have seen, he cannot let them leave. This box set also introduces the sinister Daleks, in the episode "Dead Planet". The series is in black and white and although many of the sets, looked and probably are, cheap and unreal, the story lines and plot twists, will keep you clued to the screen. The acting also is performed brilliantly, with each actor having been cast perfectly in his or her role. William Hartnell (the first Doctor), sets the tone of the series and it is easy to see how generations of children and adults alike, have become avid followers. Doctor Who - The Beginning, where the adventure begins and the action unfolds

Solid Retro Scifi
First, I want to make clear that untill I purchaesd this set I never actually saw this program before,I actually heard the theme song once and felt I had to see the show, so I would like to think that I might be more objective than some people. So, on with the review. First, for such an old program this has a solid look that still stands the test of time. Other than the models the special effects and especially the set work is sitll hold up even when compared wit hmoder effects. As I mentioned before only the models and the Daleks really show their age. But, that is not why this DVD set is a good buy. The primary reason that this set is so good is the casts performance. Compared with most shows that came out that period and even today the acting is quite good. It's not perfect but very solid and in most episodes is actually beleiveable. Now, the special features are ok but not great. I find that the music vedio is rather neat as are some of the comedy skits. But, most of the rest of the material will be of intrest only to those who would wish to make a study of Dr. Who. The only other complaint I had is that there wern't enough episodes I really would have liked to see at least one more. Other than that I recomend it to any one who likes old scifi or wants something that has a appeal to people of all ages.

Early Doctor Who
Doctor Who, Torchwood, Sarah Jane Smith, the Daleks, et.al. have become my favorite weekend fare. In the interests of finding out where it all started I purchased a DVD set of the first Doctor Who stories. I was not disappointed. What has always fascinated me about the Doctor Who series is that all the stories are interrelated and each episode has at least one tidbit that serves to knit the tales together. The question of why the Tardis always looks like a police call box is neatly answered in the original Doctor Who. I love it!

Doctor Who The Beginning
This is a product for diehard Dr. Who fans who are curious to see the first episodes of the longest running science fiction series in television history. The DVD's are in black and white and the special effects seem extremely amateurish by today's standards. The first story "An Unearthly Child" unfolds over 4 episodes totally 95 minutes. Two teachers are concerned about one of their students who appears to live in a junkyard. When they attempt to visit her Grandfather, a doctor, they find a Police Box inside the junkyard. After hearing her voice coming from inside the Box, they all end up inside and the Doctor takes off because he can't let them go after seeing the TARDIS. They end up back in 200,000 b.c. I found out a couple of things I had not known before and had wondered about such as how Dr. Who got his name and what the letters TARDIS stood for and so on. I recommend the DVD's but only if you are a true Dr. Who fan and want to know how it started.

The Beginning of a Legend
These are the very first three adventures of the Doctor, witch aired all the way back in 1963 as such some elements are completely and totally out dated but one thing remains the FUN! It's three fun adventures that are very different in style to the modren adventures, there are a total of 13 episodes plus one unaired pilot, and more then enough interveiws to keep you happy. If you can enjoy these oldies then go for it! However if you need the latest and newest these adventures will bore you. For thoses intreasted the second serial in this collection includes the first apperence of the Daleks.
