Does Dr. Who get good?
shmokes:
I've never seen the old Dr. Who episodes. I mean, I remember it coming on when I was a little little kid, but I never watched it.

I've seen every episode of Dexter and Breaking Bad. Both are really good. My wife watched Spartacus (while I was studying) so I'd periodically walk through. Can't complain about the gratuitous nudity. She said the show was okay. I watched a couple episodes of Burn Notice when it first came out. I seemed like goofy fun, but I wouldn't dream of putting it in a list with Dexter and Breaking Bad. Has it substantially improved since it began?
AtomSmasher:
Dexter and Breaking Bad are two of my favorite shows currently on tv and definitely worth watching.
Spartacus is mainly about gratuitous violence and nudity, although I have to admit it continually got better throughout the season. I'm curious if it's going to have a second season since I know it was at least delayed due to the main actor undergoing cancer treatment.
Burn Notice is still just goofy fun, entertaining to watch, but no where near the caliber of Dexter or Breaking Bad.
Prison Break had an entertaining first season, but none of the other seasons were very good.
As for Dr. Who, the first half of the first season of the reboot was really bad, especially the premiere episode. It definitely gets better as it goes along, but is still fairly hit and miss on each episode. One episode will be brilliant and the next will be written horribly. Overall I'd say the pluses outweigh the minuses and that it is a show worth watching.
shardian:
Burn Notice is a formula show in the truest sense...but it is very entertaining. It is a good break from the over serious, serialized stuff.
