There's a couple of television events happening that may be of interest to
the list, something old, and something new:

First, "Dr. Who" was named the "most influential television cult program of
all time." :-)

Secondly, I've been watching a lot of the Cartoon Network for some reason and
happen to know that the premier of Samurai Jack is this Friday. I'm not a fan
of Japanese Animation, but the previews look quite interesting:

"Samurai Jack is a bold adventure show from Genndy Tartakovsky, creator of
the hugely popular Dexter's Laboratory. In the distant past, an evil
shape-shifter named Aku has brought destruction upon the land. As the
citizens' last hope, a youngster is sent away to train as a samurai warrior.
But when he returns as an adult to confront Aku, the warrior finds himself
flung into the future through a time portal, landing in an unknown time and
place. There, the locals dub him "Jack" and help him in his quest to return
to the past and undo the evil brought by Aku. Samurai Jack's adventures and
battles are portrayed through a groundbreaking style that combines stylized
cartooning, minimal dialogue, split-screen visuals, rich backgrounds and
pulsating music--making Samurai Jack a true Cartoon Network original. "
