Remember the dog from Dr. Who?

I mentioned a while back that he's getting his own show. More data has since come to light.

Quote:

Park Entertainment, the television distribution agent associated with the Jetix-produced K9 Adventures spin-off, has further details of the upcoming series on its website. Among the website's list of "projects in development" is a section headed "K9 - The Series", which describes the premise and lead characters for the series as follows: "Somewhere in the future… An old Prairie class spacecraft is drifting towards distant stars. She is The 'Platte,' once used for the colonisation of Asteroids. On board are SLOCUM - mid-thirties, rugged, taciturn who thinks of himself as a dealer in valuable commodities - others would say he just collects junk! He is a loner – a space gypsy! It's the only way he knows. He's in no hurry to get anywhere and he stays well off the beaten track. And DJINN - a V997 (F), an overactive computer module in the shape of an attractive young woman. She was programmed by the ship's previous owners to provide stimulating conversation. Something that SLOCUM would happily change if only he had knowledge of her operating codes! Together they discover an apparently abandoned battle cruiser. Whereupon they meet K-9! The adventures begin ..."

I like K9's tagline. Punny, yet senseless.

K-9 looks too... cute? I'm not really sure how to accurately put into words my reaction. I mean, this K-9 is sleeker but I sort of miss his boxiness.

The site doesn't say what kind of show it will be. Is it a kid's show, considering K-9's sudden cuteness? Cute tag line though, if you don't mind me using that word again.

didn't they try this once before?

the great thing about this new series of doctor who, first with christopher eccleston, and even moreso with david tennant, is the much darker, somber nature and tone of the show......this is not your silly, happy doctor anymore, but rather a lonely and deeply troubled man with no home........i would hate to see them screw it up with something too cutesy.
