Anyone remember that show? (Perhaps watched it on Nickelodeon in the mid-1980s?) Harry Brighouse on Crooked Timber does. See also John Quiggin's and Henry Farrell's posts about Doctor Who. (See also my posts about Doctor Who here and here. Note, as I noted back then, that Dalek is a good rhyme for Volokh. Also, since writing those posts, I saw Tom Baker as Dr. Who in The Talons of Weng-Chiang, which was better than the episode I had complained about.)
