Interesting conversation going on here. I’ll have to disagree with the idea that Doctor Who is fundamentally a children’s program and that to make it any more “adult” would thus not make it Doctor Who. While I think I can see where that was coming from, I’m inclined to disagree as many of the Virgin New Adventures I’ve been exposed to present deep and mature elements in such a way that Doctor Who can be geared more so towards adults and still, at least to me, still have a firm grasp on the core of the show or “be Doctor Who.”
