The Defenses are Weakening

Some of you may already know that I have been, in my sister's words, "corrupting" my niece and nephew by introducing them to Doctor Who. Now, my sister, [livejournal.com profile] coquillagement used to watch with me a bit in the 80s (mostly T. Baker and Davison)when it was on PBS so she had some knowledge of the show I had shown them some classic eps but things really took off with the new series. She moaned when I sent my niece series 1 & 2 on tape. I recently sent a package containing series 3 and a few other goodies and I think she caught bits of it watching with her children.

Anyway, I was talking to her last night and she confessed to me that she watched the DW marathon on the SciFi Channel yesterday on and off without any outside coercion. To take it one step further, she watched "Christmas Invasion" online. I was amazed.

I'm sure she'll comment on this and you'll get to hear her side of it. :)

In my defense, I was bedridden and taking painkillers and muscle relaxants.

And really, you shouldn't be so surprised, you know I like good writing and good acting. It's just that Dr. Who never had that before. :P
Blame it all on Eccleston and Tennant.
Besides, it's something else to discuss with the kids. Just because Bookworm and I have now taken to saying "What? What?" to each other at odd moments does not mean I am now a Whophile.
