Doctor Who — 

WHO would think that any show would be around so long?  Not even a daytime soap could claim that!  Entertaining people all around the world (and anywhere else in the galaxy that can interpret television signals) for almost 50 years, DOCTOR WHO has enlightened people of all ages throughout time.
Continually ever-changing, DOCTOR WHO has kept up with the times.  No other series can boast that claim.  Okay, there have been other series that have augmented their storyline to adapt, but the stories in general find themselves lacking in content even after 4 years on television. 
The next closest series to compete would be STAR TREK.  Even through the generations of programs and movies, this series has repeated or mimicked other storylines from past incarnations and has NO fluidity of technology for the series itself.  DOCTOR WHO has never repeated a story nor forgot how technology changes throughout time.
If one was to compare STARGATE to DOCTOR WHO (oh, the battle commences), one would find that DOCTOR WHO out-ranks in shear number of stories through the series.  Yes, they say SG had more episodes, but with the new revitalization (and spin-offs like Torchwood and Sarah Jane) DOCTOR WHO has now reclaimed the throne of number of episodes, stories, fans, ... the circle is closed.
How much longer will the Timelord travel?  Only time will tell...or someone at BBC

Thought he called it as it is! Has been around a long time, a little corny but people love it. Still continuing to make new episodes. Loved, the "How much longer will the Timelord travel?".

Nicely put. Thanks for the comparisons and the last line is so true. I am currently catching up on the more current (2006-2008) episodes and I watched Torchwood (through netflix) too.
