I liked Northern Exposure because I liked some of the characters, but it still went over my tolerance limit for comedy and I found that one episode per month or less was close to my saturation level. So I don't think I watched a lot if it. I thought it was good, though.
Yes, Doctor Who is a good mix of character, adventure, and comedy. But it fits my tolerance levels well. By which I mean I can watch it over and over and still enjoy it.
Well, Men in Trees was higher on the "silly" scale than Northern Exposure (IMHO, anyway), even without all the metaphysical hoo-ha (I liked the metaphysical hoo-ha, it's one of my Things, in the Kareenian sense of the term). So be forewarned.
While I like Dr. Who I don't feel the urge, as I did with Northern Exposure to make my own copies of every episode [g]. I used to look forward to Monday nights just for it.

I hope Netflix is right!
