5 out of 5 stars Enjoyable...   October 21, 2008

Two shows in one. The Invisible Enemy is where the Dr. picks up K-9. It's a fun episode that takes you into the Dr.'s brain.

A Girl's Best Friend is a take off of Dr. Who.... Sara Jane is back home and finally opens the present sent to her from the Dr... K-9! It's a fun, short episode... not sure that anything ever came of that show.

5 out of 5 stars Better Then Bad; It's GOOD!   September 21, 2008

Look, Doctor Who is never going to win any awards for special effects. In addition, the fight sequences occasionally leave me in stitches; I'm afraid everyone in the Doctor Who universe is easily felled with a stiff kick to the shins or a slight nudge to the back of the neck.

Once one gets past these rather inconsequential shortcomings, however, Doctor who is generally a combination of both acting and teleplay brilliance!

The Invisible enemy is no different. Amongst the excellent focal points of this "episode" are: the introduction of K-9 (who preceded even R2-D2 in the cute robot milieu), Leela at the top of her form, Tom Baker - brilliant as always, and a rather interesting plot involving a microorganism with intelligence.

Furthermore, this DVD includes K-9 and Company. As a kid, I always wanted, but was never able to see this quirky chapter in the Doctor Who canon. To be honest, I thought it was quite fun. The theme song, by the way, hilariously embraces the kitzchy-ness of 1970's techno-disco. All in all, Sarah Jane is always fun, K-9's neither over or under-utilized, and the side characters are more than adequate.

My verdict? A fantastic introduction to the Doctor Who collection of DVD's!

what can I say, the more Doctor Who that is released the better the world is. great redone special effects and of course the original version.
