    ...and they approached David Tennant to play the lead. I guess they're
    more interested in continuity than in a bold new direction.

    If it hasn't even been offered for tender yet, this story probably
    isn't real. It could easily be a planted story to express Electric
    Entertainment's interest.

    For a bold new direction Electric Entertainment could just come out
    with a new show, and not have any of the baggage from Dr Whos's past.
    But their television series *The Librarians* is an example of what I
    guess is what they would do with Dr Who.

    Stan

    "The Librarians" is nothing like "Doctor Who" though, and trying to
    make them similar would be a disaster.

    I liked "The Librarians" series, although it did quickly fall off the
    rails (like most American shows) and I bought the three released
    novels. I haven't *yet* seen the earlier "The Librarian" movies nor the
    more recent "The Librarians - The Next Chapter" series.

    There were three TV movies made for TNT, all starring Noah Wyle ("ER", "Falling Skies", "The Pitt") as the single Librarian character Flynn

    - The Librarian: Quest for the Spear (2004)
    - The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines (2006)
    - The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice (2008)

    "The Librarians" TV series then took over in 2014, with Noah Wyle, Bob Newhart, and Jane Curtin briefly reprising their movie roles alongside
    new characters.

    The new spin-off "The Librarians - The Next Chapter" took over in 2025
    with another set of new characters, with a couple of the first TV
    series' actors also briefly appearing. Unfortunately this one sounds
    like it suffers from the usual "Political Correctness" silliness with
    one of the characters being a Knight of Camelot, but of course is a
    woman (the ridiculous excuse is that her role as a knight had been
    erased from our history by Lancelot). :-(

    You total missed my point. Not that they would make Dr Who like The
    Librarian, but that Dr Who wouldn't be the first TV series that they
    would be reviving.

    You total missed my point. Not that they would make Dr Who like The >Librarian, but that Dr Who wouldn't be the first TV series that they
    would be reviving.

    Reviving? Are you certain?

    There were three TV movies made for TNT, all starring Noah Wyle ("ER",
    "Falling Skies", "The Pitt") as the single Librarian character Flynn
    Carsen:

    - The Librarian: Quest for the Spear (2004)
    - The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines (2006)
    - The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice (2008)

    Worth trying. Thanks.

    If it hasn't even been offered for tender yet, this story probably
    isn't real. It could easily be a planted story to express Electric
    Entertainment's interest.

    For a bold new direction Electric Entertainment could just come out
    with a new show, and not have any of the baggage from Dr Whos's past.
    But their television series *The Librarians* is an example of what I
    guess is what they would do with Dr Who.

    Stan

    "The Librarians" is nothing like "Doctor Who" though, and trying to
    make them similar would be a disaster.

    I liked "The Librarians" series, although it did quickly fall off the
    rails (like most American shows) and I bought the three released
    novels. I haven't *yet* seen the earlier "The Librarian" movies nor the
    more recent "The Librarians - The Next Chapter" series.

    You total missed my point. Not that they would make Dr Who like The Librarian, but that Dr Who wouldn't be the first TV series that they

    Stan

    There is so little actual creative talent these days, that pretty much
    every company is reviving the old stuff, almost all of it far worse
    then the otiginal version. They've even been reviving the revivials - superhero have been "revived" so may times in differeing versions that
    nobody now knows what they even are any more. :-(

    Not just the entertainment industry either, Just look at things like
    the new "VW Beetle", the new "Mini", the new "C64" computer, the
    multiple comic book versions of Spider-Man, etc.

    Thankfully some people are - hopefully - beginning to see some sense
    with some of the revivials being cancelled ("Stargate" being one
    example).

    Yeah. The word seems to be that RTD didn't take many of the
    "notes" presented by Disney on board, and their lack of control
    over the direction the show was taking was one of the things
    that irked Disney. The leaks suggest they wanted more input.

    The fact Disney are in no rush to show TWBTLATS probably backs
    this up to some extent. As clearly Disney are not impressed with

    We reviewed TWBTLATS here at the time... go back and you'll find

    think the general RADW consensus was that it wasn't very good.

    If you can't be bothered going back through the RADW archive
    I'll give you a concise review of the main bits of it. (Just for
    you.)

    Humans are bad to reptile-fish people... reptile-fish people
    attack mankind... mankind fights back. Man meets female
    reptile-fish person... (this is where it's going to get
    fishy)... female reptile-fish person doesn't like mankind...
    then she does... man likes female reptile-fish person too... man
    fucks female reptile-fish person... they fall in love... there's
    a small bit of emotional disturbance in this "I love you" thing
    (Isn't there always?!)... but, they weather the storm and the
    female reptile-fish person and the man swim off together in the
    deep blue sea to live happily ever after in some happy undersea

    The fact Disney are in no rush to show TWBTLATS probably backs

    I seem to recall that TWBTLATS has been shown somewhere (U.K. and
    Ireland, maybe).

    UK. On BBC1 and the BBC iPlayer. (Where it is still available for
    viewing.)

    Does anyone from those parts that DID watch it want to give the
    group a bit of a run down, please??

    We reviewed TWBTLATS here at the time... go back and you'll find out
    what we thought of it. I can't speak for everyone here but I think
    the general RADW consensus was that it wasn't very good.

    If you can't be bothered going back through the RADW archive I'll
    give you a concise review of the main bits of it. (Just for you.)

    Oh!! How SWEET of you, Blueshirt.

    Humans are bad to reptile-fish people

    That'd b right.

    ... reptile-fish people attack mankind

    The Bastards!!

    ... mankind fights back. Man meets female reptile-fish person

    Is she a good-looker??

    ... (this is where it's going to get fishy)... female reptile-fish
    person doesn't like mankind... then she does

    Can't make up her mind!! Typical.

    ... man likes female reptile-fish person too... man fucks female
    reptile-fish person

    Why Not?? Any Port in a Storm.

    ... they fall in love

    Is this where the music starts up??

    ... there's a small bit of emotional disturbance in this "I love you"
    thing (Isn't there always?!)

    Yeap!

    ... but, they weather the storm and the female reptile-fish person
    and the man swim off together in the deep blue sea to live happily
    ever after in some happy undersea reptile-fish place. The End.

    To be resurrected next year!

    It's nice to be nice...

    I'm Irish. We always support the underdog against the oppressor.

    So, go Sea Devils! Give it to them.

    ... mankind fights back. Man meets female reptile-fish person

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    [Digression]
    The actress who plays the fish-reptile seductress has been in
    "Doctor Who" (as the sister of Martha Jones) and when not made
    up as a fish-reptile she is reasonably good looking.

    You wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers anyway...

    ... (this is where it's going to get fishy)... female
    reptile-fish person doesn't like mankind... then she does

    Can't make up her mind!! Typical.

    Yeah. I think he made her laugh. That's what usually works.

    I won't mention the dirty talk they engaged in. It all got a
    bit salty for 9pm in the evening.

    ... man likes female reptile-fish person too... man fucks
    female reptile-fish person

    Why Not?? Any Port in a Storm.

    It was a stormy situation.

    ... they fall in love

    Is this where the music starts up??

    It's where most sane people went, "Yuk!".

    ... there's a small bit of emotional disturbance in this "I
    love you" thing (Isn't there always?!)

    Yeap!

    The course of true love never did run smooth...

    ... but, they weather the storm and the female reptile-fish
    person and the man swim off together in the deep blue sea to
    live happily ever after in some happy undersea reptile-fish
    place. The End.

    I think we can safely assume there will be no sequel...
