It's a little tongue-in-cheek at times, but I don't think that's a bad thing. The leads are really good, the writing is usually top-notch and Russell T. Davis is frequently called the "Joss Whedon of the UK." You should at least check out the first few episodes of the first season and then decide for yourself.

I've been hearing great things though about the new series, so....do you think I should give it a try despite my initial reactions to seeing bits of the series in the '80s and thinking it looked too hokey to invest in?
