		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve said some not-so-nice things about British writer Russel T Davies.  The man who brought Dr Who to a 21st century audience, and who then created its &#8220;more mature&#8221;s spin-off, Torchwood, has a tendency to write over-the-top scenarios that that tend to resolve with head-slapping deus-ex-machina endings.
I&#8217;ve also said some unfriiendly things about Torchwood, a [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=skiffy.wordpress.com&blog=3022045&post=102&subd=skiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Television cartoons are a funny business.  Most people still think of them as children&#8217;s fare.  When the topic of such cartoons is a team of superheroes, the threat of juvenility rises considerably.  Somehow, Marvel&#8217;s X-Men has always managed to sustain a high level of both adult characterization and storytelling in all three of its TV [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=skiffy.wordpress.com&blog=3022045&post=91&subd=skiffy&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

We fans of the iconic Dr Who were saddened when Christopher Eccleston stepped down from the lead role in the revivified series almost four years ago.
