Exactly 45 years ago today Doctor Who debuted on the BBC, and it quickly became a cultural phenomenon. Now, all these decades later, Earth-2.net launches Bigger on the Inside -- a deep, analytical look at the program and its impact on the world. Starting off, the duo explores "An Unearthly Child," the four-part serial that introduced the world to the Doctor.

Doctor Who Week continues on Earth-2.net, and in this episode of Earth-2.net: The Show Dan and Mike discuss Steven Moffat, writer of such episodes as "The Doctor Dances" and "Blink." Not only do they look at his contributions to the program thus far, but speculate as to what he'll bring to the show now that he's been named head writer / executive producer.

It's Doctor Who Week on Earth-2.net, and with that in mind, Kellen turns the majority of the episode over to Michael David Sims who discusses Doctor Who: The Infinite Quest!

As part of Doctor Who Week, Dan and Mike discuss IDW's Doctor Who Classics, volume one. But before that, they review the Robin: Violent Tendencies and Ultimate Human trade paperbacks.

In this episode of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick is joined once again by his lovely wife Megan to discuss Ginger Snaps before he continues the feminine theme by going solo for a review of the blood-drenched French film A L'Interieur (Inside). Then, in conjunction with Doctor Who Week on Earth-2.net, Michael David Sims stops by to discuss the top five scariest episodes of the modern Doctor Who. Tunes include: "Ginger Snaps Main Theme" by Michael Shields, "Ginger Snaps" by Under a Nightmare, "Baby Gotterdammerung" by Monster Magnet and "She Moves in Murderous Ways" by The Chuck Norris Experiment.

Though selections from the November Previews catalog might be the main topic of the show, Jenny and Mike find time to talk about writing, road trips and ice cream. Oh, and STDs.

In this episode, we continue our look at the early Captain America solo stories in Tales of Suspense. Issue #60 features the introduction of a major enemy... who gets his revenge on Cap elsewhere, a Rick Jones who is ignored and patronized, and the discovery that even bad guys love hearing Cap talk!

After catching up on a backlog of e-mails, James and Mike suffer through five terrible episodes of Batman Beyond: "Disappearing Inque," "Ascension," "Joyride," "Earth Mover" and "Splicers."

First Des and Mike discuss Amazing Spider-Man #575, Battlefields: The Night Witches #1, Final Crisis: Rage of the Red Lanterns, Hellboy: In the Chapel of Moloch and The War that Time Forgot #6. Then DW chimes in with his review of the Mirror's Edge remix album.

In this fanged episode of Dread Media, Desmond Reddick talks Dracula with the world's foremost authority and author of the academic book, Bram Stoker's Notes from Dracula: A Facsimile Edition, Robert Eighteen-Bisang. He then reviews Blood Wars and does a top five non-vampire vampire films list before DW suffers through a review of Countdown Vampires for the PlayStation. Desmond caps it all off with the most vehement and venom-filled review yet when he "discusses" the Halloween issue of Revolver Magazine. Tunes included: "Dracula's Tango" by Zombina and the Skeletones, "Fresh Blood" by Alice Cooper, "Drain the Blood" by The Distillers, "Bloodhsot" by Ghoultown, "Bloodrocuted" by Dethklok and "The Box" by Snot.

Kellen is back! He explains why he was gone, and goes on to review the recently released first half of Ouran High School Host Club.

Ill-fated time travel, the politics of superheroes and the aftermath of world domination are the themes this week as Dan and Mike speak about Booster Gold: Blue and Gold, Civil War and Empire.
