Doctor Who Daily
http://www.drwhodaily.com/main/index.php
Official news and tantalizing gossip on Doctor Who, Torchwood and the newest Who-based spinoff, The Sarah Jane Adventures, is the stock in trade at Doctor Who Daily. Run by devoted fans of the long-running 1963 series and its successful new incarnation, this site is an upbeat gathering place where web surfers can discuss the show, participate in polls, download screen grabs and generally celebrate the 2005 revival of one of SF's best-loved TV programs.
As its name suggests, Doctor Who Daily features a frequently updated news blog that tracks guest-star and other casting announcements, official BBC press releases, story rumors, award nominations and even the release of media tie-in products for the show. Site visitors can explore the ever-expanding gallery of images of the Doctor and his various companions and watch previews of upcoming episodes. In the site's discussion forums, members chew over Who news together, reacting to new episodes as they air. Spoilers are clearly marked, and the atmosphere is chatty but never overcrowded.
Boasting as it does one of the best-established and most loyal fan communities in the genre, Doctor Who has naturally inspired any number of Web pages. Some of these try to offer a little of everything to visitors. Doctor Who Daily's focus, on the other hand, is more specialized; it is very much a site for talkative aficionados of the program. There is nothing wrong with its news blog or other features, but the discussion forums are the real heart of this site. For Whovians looking to share a spirited conversation about any portion of the Doctor's long and colorful history, the regulars at Doctor Who Daily are a ready, willing and welcoming community of fellow travelers.
