Doctor Who 4, Sarah Jane Adventures Coming to SCI FI
Looks like the TARDIS will be making another stop in the good old US of A this April when Doctor Who returns to SCI FI Channel for an all-new fourth season.
In season four of Doctor Who, David Tennant reprises his role as the tenth Timelord. For his latest adventures he is joined by a brand new companion, Donna Noble, played by award-winning actress Catherine Tate (The Catherine Tate Show, BBC AMERICA) who appeared as ‘the runaway bride’ in the previous season. ‘Martha Jones,’ played by Freema Agyeman, the Doctor’s most recent companion, who had a dramatic role last season’s finale, makes a triumphant return in the middle of season four.
In addition, SCI FIC Channel will be running the popular spin-off series The Sarah Jane Adventures (Sarah Connor Chronicles, anyone?) which will also premiere in April.
Candace Carlisle, EVP Sales and Co-productions, BBC Worldwide Americas commented, “The imagination of Russell and the rest of the production team in Cardiff who have produced these two incredible shows is outstanding. We are so pleased that the loyal fans of the SCI FI Channel will be able to meet a whole new range of characters and aliens that are intrinsically linked to the Doctor’s history. Both ‘Sarah Jane Adventures’ and the new season of ‘Doctor Who’ are jam packed with some of the most creative storylines ever produced by the BBC’s brilliant team.”
The Sarah Jane Adventures is written and produced by the same creative team behind Doctor Who, including multi-award winning writer Russell T. Davies. Having traveled the universe with The Doctor, Sarah Jane is used to alien encounters. Accompanied by her new young friends Maria, Luke and Clyde, she becomes embroiled in an offbeat world of mystery and danger.

Great to see the Dr. is coming back! Now if Sci-Fi would just renew the Dresden Files, they’d have several great shows airing! NBC calls the Dresden Files a Sci-Fi “cult favorite”, and with over 9,500 signatures on the petition, the series certainly has support and needs to be renewed. We’re sending the Execs Valentines and asking for Season 2 - join us!
