Season 13 -
Terror of the ZygonsHilarious camp and stupid. Truly bottom scraping acting, idiotic story. Funny like an accidental version of Dark Place.
Planet of Evil
Pyramids of Mars A passable bit of fun. If you don't mind all that rather
mouldy all aliens of Mars stuff.
The Android Invasion Granted one of my favourites.
The Brain of Morbius Just bloody stupid, especially the witches.
The Seeds of Doom Is this the one where the Dr has a gun?
Season 14 -
The Masque of Mandragora Top notch another fave
The Hand of Fear Another goodie
The Deadly Assassin Histrionic Baker, no assistant, boring
Timelords TV snoozeland.
The Face of Evil Camp fun
The Robots of Death Don't remember it
The Talons of Weng-Chiang
With
Season 32 -
"The Eleventh Hour"A very enjoyable update of Pertwee village in peril
story and doesn't suck for a new Dr episode.
"The Beast Below"Impressive, low budgeted steam punk with a great role from Sophie Okonedo
"Victory of the Daleks" A mixed bag. Witty and inovative, with genuine
humour, but suffers from over stuffing
"The Time of Angels"/"Flesh and Stone" Brilliant, proof Who can do acting,
stories and FX,
"The Vampires of Venice" A solid story nothing special
"Amy's Choice" Who casting aside it's awful camp heritage to
become far closer to the Prison.
"The Hungry Earth"/"Cold Blood" Poor, very poor a misguided attempt to bring
a classic Who monster without understanding it.
"Vincent and the Doctor"90% There without the monsters another chance
for Who to prove it's real scifi
"The Lodger" Really, really good fun. A show confident enough
to mock it's self and still be dignified.
"The Pandorica Opens"/"The Big Bang"
Who was fun in the 80s. But that was it fun. Silly, awful FX, hammy acting, over cooked lighting, f**king radiophonics music shit. There was no drama, tension and not a sliver of genuine Scifi. The current one has been a mixed bag and RTD ended up producing a lot of camp, pointless noise. But amongst these it actually made some classics.
Where as old Who is more and more like wanking over Marylin Monroe, only to find it was Danny La Rue seen through thick glass.
