Comment Dr. Who fans are the real conspiracy! (Score 1) 214
Maybe in the United Kingdom Scotland Yard fears local fans of American science fiction programs, but they got it backwards. The real troublemakers, tracked by the F.B.I. and U.S. Secret Service, are American fans of the British television show Doctor Who. The American authorities fear that these American fans might go mad and kill themselves, turn against society or start a weird cult. After all, it is patently obvious that X-Files and Star Trek convey perfectly normal behaviors, but Doctor Who presents some very odd and disturbing ideas, not to mention the strange accents and misspellings of simple words like "color" and "civilization".
