My TV station will never broadcast a 40 year episode of Doctor Who. I just watched one streaming online (missed it the first time around- I was only 5) TV stations put shows on air only because they are economicaly viable. People stream shows on the internet because they love them, and they want to share them with the 5 or 6 other people in the world who love them too. Hmmm...commercial greed VS quirky interest. I'll take captain Quirk any day. Nuff said! Heh Saskboy…Way to make people think :-)
