1) Warriors' Gate - Visually and conceptually stunning with
great characters too
2) Full Circle - A truly intelligent script, bolstered even
more by stylish direction
3) State of Decay - A fusion of Hinchcliffe, Williams ad JNT
4) The Keeper of Traken - Beautiful design, nice ideas,
insanely theatrical
Not reviewed yet...
5) The Leisure Hive - A bold new era of style, if not fun...
6) Logopolis - A bizarre mish mash of the very good and the
very poor
7) Meglos - Bidmead stops all this silliness...by bringing
forth a really silly story
"JNT and Bidmead wanted to concentrate more on the story and less on the dynamics of the Doctor and his companions..."
ReplyDeleteOof. Far be it from me to tell professional writers how to do their job. But it seems like Doctor Who is rooted in the most bog standard, sci-fi tropes out there, and if you take away the personality and jibes between the cast, what are we left with? A pulpy fifties throwback show that hasn't moved on with the rest of television, in appearance, direction, acting or budget.
It's always something with Doctor Who. They always find new ways to shoot themselves in the foot.
Odd how opinions differ.
