So spake Harlan Ellison ...

[fajrdrako]

Star Wars is adolescent nonsense; Close Encounters is obscurantist drivel; Star Trek can turn your brains to puree of bat guano; and the greatest science fiction series of all time is Doctor Who! ...This TV viewing will not harm you ... will, in fact, delight and uplift you, stretch your imagination; tickle your risibilities, cleanse your intellect of all lesser visual SF affections... Doctor Who is the apex, the pinnacle, the Louvre Museum, the top, the Coliseum, and other et cetera. -- Harlan Ellison

Well, yes, he is a moron - or at least, he's one of those people who are so busy trying to look clever that they end up looking as if they are overcomensating for something which may or may not be intellectual challengement.

But he quote Cole Porter, so there's a streak of something good in him. Not to mention "City on the Edge of Forever".
