More evidence of the inroads Doctor Who has made in US pop culture

"Sally Forth" is a regular US comic strip focusing on the lives of an average American professional wife. Her husband has a rather fun outlook on life. Here is this past Sunday's entry, proof enough of how much progress the Doctor is making in American life:

Definitely a good idea for the parent to have "The Talk" with her.

Wouldn't want her picking up her Dr Who opinions in the street, or worse yet, on an internet BBS :rommie:
 
Yeah, she might find her head filled with all sorts of unsavory ideas, and once you're a Sixth Doctor fan it's difficult to integrate back into society ;)
 
:guffaw::guffaw::guffaw:

Not quite as funny as Fox Trot's "Orlando Bloom has ruined everything" when LOTR came out, though...
 
Ugh, that comic has always been pedestrian, and that's never more apparent then when it tries to act like it's not.

Yeah, but with Fox Trot, you expect it. Hell, years before the Lord of the Rings movies came out, they did a few weeks worth of strips where Jason & Marcus were cast as Frodo & Sam in a movie version of The Lord of the Rings where they insisted on performing every single Frodo/Sam scene in the book, regardless of how pointless or uncinematic it was.

This Sally Forth comic strip seems to have really come out of left field. It's a great gag and I really wonder how many people got it. (I didn't even see it since The Arizona Republic doesn't run Sally Forth anymore.)
