dr. who is a slightly mixed up time lord, who seems to have a knack for 
getting himself into trouble. Like the Voyagers, he seems to specialize
in the troubles of fair(and not so fair) maidens. However, unlike the 
Voyagers, he is a brilliant man, a mathematical genius. He is also a
convicted criminal on his home planet of Gallifrey (he spoke against the
ways of the presidents and high council of Gallifrey). If you try to com-
pare him to T.J. Hooker, it's impossible. He and Hooker have nothing in
common, except that they fight criminals and are basic do-gooders. Who 
doesn't like weapons or violence. He'd rather dream up some scheme and
outwit his enemies. Cute, but kinda funny-looking!
