    A GREAT SHOW

    I've been a fan of doctor who ever since I was young and grew up watching it. This was an amazing spin off of the show and I loved it. Elizabeth sladen was an amazing actress and I would recommend this! :)

    Thoroughly entertaining series with great production values

    "The Sarah Jane Adventures" continues to display the excellent production values demonstrated in the pilot "Invasion of the Bane". With well-conceived plots, great acting and genuine drama, the series surpassed my expectations.

    Elisabeth Sladen remains eternally youthful and is as watchable as ever. She's joined by a solid cast and the whole ensemble makes the series more satisfying that "Torchwood".

    "Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?" is the highlight of the first season, superbly directed by Graeme Harper. It's a marvellous tale which paves the way for "Doctor Who"'s "Turn Left" episode.

    8 out of 10.

    This is what Doctor Who should be.

    If Russell T. Davies had instilled this sort of educational and morality in the new series of Doctor Who, we would have something more akin to the Original series, which, even though I was only young when it was being aired and I never managed to catch either Troughton or Hartnell, was a fantastic series.

    Sarah Jane Adventures has humour, monsters and story lines that, although they are hidden behind children running around and on a children's network, are just as accessible to adults than to children.

    The characterisations are clear, the directing good, the effects up to scratch with those in Doctor Who and the acting, dare I say it, better. They tackle emotional issues, far-fetched plots and links to the Doctor Who series old and new and still come up Aces whilst being slightly educational along the way.

    Whether it was intentional or accidental, adopting the whole point to the original series (Being educational and for the family) The Sarah Jane Adventures should hopefully continue for a long time and be given a n equal focus to that of Doctor Who and far beyond that of Torchwood.

    Keep it up Cast and Crew of a fantastic series.

    I grew up with this

    I adore the Sarah Jane adventures, still now. Liz is such a great actor (and the rest of the cast) it's such a shame that Liz past away, she was like a child hood hero and her legacy will live on in this amazing show.

    A fun spin off series.

    As a true Doctor Who fan I always watch the spin off material, I had reservations about the Sarah Jane Adventures on their original transmission, but the show continued to surprise me, it was so tragic that our beautiful and wonderful Elisabeth Sladen was taken before her time. I am so pleased that she got her own show, well deserved as she was and still is the number one companion.

    The show matured as it went along, the Pilot episode was fun enough, but a few episodes in particular shone through, firstly the wonderful 'Whatever happened to Sarah Jane,' as good as any recent Doctor Who I can think of, a great story. The wonderful and hugely sentimental 'Death of the Doctor,' where we finally got to see Sarah Jane meet Jo Grant. There were some other great stories, but in my humble opinion these two were the best.

    Suitable for all the family, enough jokes and humour for more mature viewers, and enough scares for the younger viewers. I became a huge fan of Juliet Cowan from this (Chrissie Jackson) she added lots of laughs to the show.

    I wish we'd had more, and had the delightful Elisabeth Sladen not passed away, I'm sure it would have run for many more years.

    8/10.

    • Trivia
      In 2014, Tom Baker revealed that he had agreed to reprise his role as the Fourth Doctor for an episode, before Elisabeth Sladen died.
    • Goofs
      On a few occasions, Sarah Jane's house has a number "21" plaque on the gate - which is the number of the real house used on location, 21 Clinton Road. It should be 13, for 13 Bannerman Road, which is the fictional location.
    • Quotes

      Clyde Langer: [intro] 13 Bannerman Road is where Sarah Jane Smith lives - and it's home to things way beyond your imagination. There's an extraterrestrial supercomputer in the wall; her son, a genetically engineered boy genius; a schoolgirl investigator across the road; and a whole universe of adventure, right here on the doorstep.

      Sarah Jane Smith: Ready?

      Clyde Langer: Always.
