]]> Comment on K-9 (A Spinoff too far?) by The Vig http://www.shadowproclamation.net/wordpress/?p=707&cpage=1#comment-449 The Vig Thu, 09 Sep 2010 03:06:03 +0000 http://www.shadowproclamation.net/wordpress/?p=707#comment-449 I just saw the episode where the kids go back to 1963. Overall it was a nice homage to Back to the Future. Would have been better if they could have had a police box on screen if only for a moment. After all the events take place at a police station. Unfortunately the BBC now owns that design. I just saw the episode where the kids go back to 1963. Overall it was a nice homage to Back to the Future.

Yeah, it is obviously aimed at kids, but was quite the enjoyable show. I, too, had problems with the new K-9 design when I first saw it, but I was surprised how much I accepted it in the show. I also laughed at your line of "obvious Harry Potter inspired casting decisions" as about five minutes into the first episode, I leaned over to my friend and said "Do you think they intentionally set out to cast a girl who looks just like Emma Watson?" :-) I think they were wise to essentially have the three kids be the lead characters and K-9 be a more animated sonic screwdriver as, yes, he works better as a supporting character...much like Mickey the Idiot. Tin dogs unite! ;-) All in all I enjoyed it as a piece of children's fluff. Not something I would stay home to watch but if I had kids I would be happy to show it to them. especially considering the usual shows aimed at this age group.

I get the impression he will probably stay as long as Moffat so that will probably be a few series no matter how many ways you slice it. I think he has worked out really well so here is hoping….

Of course they could always renew it. Good point, Plus I would hate for Matt Smith to burn through his three year contract so quickly. Of course they could always renew it.

Mostly looks like he wants to do a massive cliffhanger and make us suffer over the summer. :-) Looks more like with will be season 6 part 1 and season 6 part 2 than two really separate ones, especially as they won’t be 13 episodes each.

The Hobbit is a prequel to LOTR so unlesss part of it is told in flashback, I doubt they would get an older actor to play Bilbo. Of course they could always use the technology from Tron Legacy, but if they were to do that, Ian Holm should get to reprise the part.
