Damfino.  I like Doctor Who, and just about all else I can stand to
watch regularly is Monty Python and auto-racing (a real intellectual, I
am).  I think part of it is that it doesn't take itself very seriously.
There's usually a number of amusing jokes, but they don't seem as forced
as on other programs (perhaps due to the lack of laugh track?).  Campy
does seem to describe it, but I can't see me in a fan club either
(people have clubs for BattleStar: Galactica [the Lost in Space of the
70's], though, as well.  No accounting for taste.).

PS Actually, the REAL reason is that I'm an unrepentant sexist lecher:
Romana's cute, and I've been waiting for the episode where Leela falls
out of her jungle costume (what!! you mean there isn't one!?!?
arrrgggg....)
