Personally, I prefer Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy the towel and Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy the old text-only adventure game over Hitchhiker's Guide the the Galaxy TV adaption. It is really hard to say which is my preferred method of experiencing the series, a tight match between the original radio show and the full unabridged audio book read by Douglas Adams himself. The guy just has this really great way of reading his own work that is hard not to love.

And to bring things back on topic (because I am such a rebel), finally after many years of being told I should, I have begun watching the first season of the new Doctor Who series. I guess it is okay, but as someone who has never seen anything Doctor Who before and has no attachments to it, it has a really high cheese factor and is obvious it was really made to appeal to kids falling somewhere in the 10-17 demograph. The Aliens of London/World War Three two parter was immensely painful to watch with all of its infantile fart gags, not to mention the intentionally over the top goofy looking alien villians. When I was twelve I may very well have loved this show, but I really don't think it is something I could get into in adulthood. Glad I gave it a shot though.
