The budget on the original run was ridiculously low, and the deadlines ridiculously short.

The new series has a much bigger budget, and a lot longer to film each episode. I did hear somewhere that nowadays the catering budget per episode is higher than the entire budget per episode in the old days.

Plus, of course, they use a lot of CGI effects that simply did not exist back then.

The thing that summed it up for me was that back then, if we wanted to see high budget effects, we had to watch US shows. A couple of weeks back I was watching "Marvel's Agents Of Shield" and caught myself thinking "Huh, the effects on this are nowhere near as good as the effects on Dr Who!"

Also, back then, it was aimed at kids, today they aim at an older audience.
