Is that a good thing or a bad thing?
That could be a bad thing. Anyone who wants to get rid of Tom Baker loses some brownie points with me. Even though Tom Baker got a great seven year run as the Doctor...

Yes.
And compare this season to last season.
The first three eps of both seasons have seen stories set in ...
One building - school in School Reunion and a hospital in Smith and Jones
New New York
Old England
First sign of unoriginality?
I third that. I'd like to see more adventures in an all-alien environment... no "future of Earth" stories, though they can be interesting too.
To be fair, New New York is in a completely different galaxy, and is *not* our Earth.
Smith & Jones was set in one building on the freaking
moon people. Hell, the Satan pit was set in one building, roughly.
Old England? The Hell? There's a pretty major difference between the 1600's hundreds and 1900's. It's in the past, yeah, but there's 300 years worth of difference there. The TARDIS is used for travelling backwards in time as well as forwards...
To be fair, however, I have been saying we need off-world stories for a short while. I'd be quite angry if it wasn't for the fact that we had the excellent Satan Pit two-parter.
And the TARDIS still doesn't always work. At least, during Eccleston's series it cocks-up once or twice.
