IfM: Our mileage variance on that one aside, I do think it might work better onscreen in some ways. I have a feeling the new series would give us more than two goofy aliens, y'know? (Even if I rather like those comic aliens myself. *snerk*) It also seems to me that having Invaders from Mars in the same season as a Shakespeare story again....don't think they could be borrowing a bit more of the Doc's-gone-and-frakked-up-the-web-of-time arc, do ya? *g*
Hex: is great. They take my favorite TARDIS crew, and they had in a newbie with whom I identify quite easily...guy about my age, enjoying the wonder of the travels and just wanting to help people where he can. And it does great things with the TARDIS dynamics, too...Ace is now the experienced cop training the rookie Hex, with the Doctor as their watchful boss. It really makes their audios feel like new seasons of the show, a very natural and cool growth beyond 'Survival'.
