https://www.cbr.com/comic-creator-peter-david-dead-68/ One of my favorite comic writers of all time. His X-Factor, Captain Marvel and Supergirl runs are legitimately underrated classics in my opinion, and his Star trek work, from what I've read, was also very good. I definitely need to get...

Of that list, I just have to "watch" The Myth Makers, The Massacre, and The Smugglers. I'll probably go with the audio plus linking narration versions of those stories. I can generally tolerate recons, especially when they're in an only partially missing story, but for these historicals the...

What an absolute turd. You could cut the first 35 minutes and lose absolutely nothing. Bringing back the fucking Space Babies was horrifying, especially since there is apparently something "special" about the brat. It also sucks to not have a second of the real Belinda in the episode, but we get...

I forgot about The Aztecs, that was pretty good. So, two good pure historicals and a bunch of junk. I finished The Gunfighters, and it was a miserable experience. I'm convinced that the last thing I'll hear before I die is that awful song.

Currently going through The Gunfighters. Its another terrible "pure historical", I swear The Romans is the only pure historical I've seen that was any good. Also, if I have to hear another line of that "Last Chance Saloon" song I'm going to freak out, whoever decided to put that in the episode...

I know Colin (rightfully, in my opinion) refused to film a regeneration story, but was that story what Time and The rani became? I just don't see how it would work, would 6 have had the same semi amnesia the whole story until something causes him to regenerate at the end, or would the story have...

I "watched" The Highlanders (and by that I mean I listened to the audio version with narration by Frazer Hines). You can't totally judge these completely missing stories just based on the recons, but I thought this was pretty meh, like most pure historicals I've seen. Outside of being the...

My personal order (I'm not separating seasons, so for example TCW had great seasons but the first season drags it down to just "Good", for example: Great: The Mandalorian Good: The Clone Wars The Acolyte Meh: Rebels Ahsoka Book of Boba Fett Obi-Wan Kenobi (Little Leia really drags this down a...

Just watched The Moonbase. It was a pretty good story, with the two animated episodes being decently done. Its not the most unique story ever, but for the Cybermen's second outing it was solid. The 2nd Doctor also gets some time to shine, including getting a little speech about having to fight...

Back on the main topic, I watched The Reign of Terror. It was absolute garbage, and a great example of why most of the pure historicals just didn't work (a few exceptions, like The Aztecs, excluded). This also really suffered from being 6 Episodes long, they did not have the story for that...

I thought this was an ok episode, but not much more then that. It felt padded, like it was a 25 minute story stretched out. The villain was lame, but it was nice to see the 15th Doctor show some teeth, he's definitely improved a lot from his early episodes. I'm really sick of Bi-Generation. I...

While I agree that RTD2 is generally better then Chibnall (but thats a low bar), he's certainly nowhere near his best. Nothing in RTD2 can match the best episodes of his first run (The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, The Girl in the Fireplace, Blink, The doctor's daughter, The Wasp & the Unicorn...

A decent trailer. Lois being some government supporting stooge complaining about Superman saving people sucks but matches the modern take of Lois Lane being an unlikable asshole who takes up too much screen time in Superman stories (seriously, why would Superman give a shit what the US...

And you'd be right, I was just being a doofus. Its definitely "right off the bat", I have no idea why I put "back".

The fight between Anakin/Mace is an example of Lucas' whole "rhyming" thing not being too bad, but the new versions of RotJ having Vader scream "NOOOOO" while tossing Palpatine ruins that whole scene for me. Seriously, I have never been an "original cut" person, I actually think that the first...

I just watched The Krotons. It was ok, but not great. The best part was that The Doctor, Zoey and Jamie were written perfectly. The story overall had interesting ideas, but the human-like Gonds were boring and the Krotons were so goofy and impractical (even by the standards of the time) that...

The Rings of Power is a show I like whole acknowledging that its a average show that could have been an absolute classic if it was closer to the source material, because the source material is just so much better then what the writers of the show frequently pull out of their asses. I'll always...

A very solid episode, if a bit sluggish at times. I liked the speech where the villain is claiming to be all these gods and then the Doctor just takes them down a peg by pointing out that he's interacted with all of thos gods and knows that they weren't all the same person. I also liked the...

I did a rewatch of The Mind of Evil, and it holds up as a very solid story. All of the on location stuff is apreciated, and even the studio sets are pretty good. Having a fight in a real castle is cool and getting an actual misslle, and a helicopter, was just crazy. I think it was definitely...

A bad episode featuring mostly bad characters, and Ruby Sunday who could literally just be anybody she's so generic and bland (nothing against the actress, but the character is just nothing to me). Not bad enough to be good or even memorable, a 3/10 bore that I'll have forgotten most of by...
