Doctor Who Story 176 – Fear Her

Tardisode Is that supposed to be a true crime YouTube channel? If it was done now, it would be a podcast. Episode Before we start, this episode sucks. So, old lady should be prime suspect now. Mom wakes up a kids laptop and it’s streaming live news. Really? That’s what a kid was doing on her laptop? This kid needs some mental health support. Wow, this kid is going through some serious trauma and the mom just wants her to forget her dead dad. Who thought it was a good idea to have a Doctor Who story centring around a child? Did she just whisper “feel the love” into a… Read More »Doctor Who Story 176 – Fear Her

Doctor Who Story 175 – Love & Monsters

Tardisode These Tardisodes are really bad. Love & Monsters I love the Scooby Doo scene in this episode. This is the second time they’ve called back to the Slitheen. I love that Elton loves ELO. Stop foreshadowing deaths that aren’t deaths. Ursula doesn’t die. Mr. Skinner’s novel is great. I love this group of people that come together for something silly, a time travelling alien, and just become genuine friends. If this episode were just LINDA hanging out, it would be better. Elton trying to “infiltrate” Jackie is amazing. Jackie’s a slut, and I love it. I also love the high percentage of this episode that features “Mr. Blue Sky.”… Read More »Doctor Who Story 175 – Love & Monsters

Doctor Who Story 174 – The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit

Tardisode This feels like a University student project. The Impossible Planet This is not tense at all when you know the Ood are adorable little creatures. My wife seems to think this is a good episode. I remember it being horrible. “Since when did Humans need slaves?” Umm… Oh, they’ll get the TARDIS back. She just kissed his helmet. Now he has a smear in his eye line. This episode reminds me so much of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. Tardisode The production values on this are terrible. The Satan Pit The pit is open. I love that it’s literally the devil. Oh yeah, foreshadowing about Rose’s “death.” I… Read More »Doctor Who Story 174 – The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit

Doctor Who Story 173 – The Idiot’s Lantern

Tardisode That old lady looks like the granny from “Nanageddon.” Episode Oh my god! It is Nanageddon. Oh god, Rose wants Vegas-era Elvis. She really is an idiot. I like the Doctor barging his way into that house by pretending to be working for the Queen. God this episode is terrible. *gasp* She’s in colour! Once again, you have another supporting character who would be a better companion than Mickey. Hello Tommy. That made no sense whatsoever. At least he stored her on Betamax, no one will be able to play it.

Doctor Who Story 172 – Rise of the Cybermen/The Age of Steel

Tardisode A little bit of back story that will be told in a few seconds in the actual episodes and a few shots of Mickey/Ricky driving a truck. Rise of the Cybermen Wow that is the most moustache twirling villain, ever. Noel Clarke still hasn’t made it into the opening credits. Just a coincidence that they land right beside a billboard of Pete Tyler. Hahaha! The bad guy is terrible. The punk homeless dude looks ridiculous. I like Ricky’s bubie. I think the British President is going to die. Double Ricky! After two of the best Doctor Who episodes, we get this garbage. Confidential Why isn’t this two parter part… Read More »Doctor Who Story 172 – Rise of the Cybermen/The Age of Steel

Doctor Who Story 171 – The Girl in the Fireplace

Tardisode Oh, we see the crew before they all die. That was creepy. Episode This is the first episode where Mickey is officially a companion. I’ve been tagging him in all episodes he appears in as he eventually became a companion. If you look at all the stories, I tag the actors who play the Doctor, Master and the companions (by character name, not actor name). Okay, this is definitely one of my all time top Doctor Who stories. Madame de Pompadour screaming out for the Doctor into the fireplace is such a good teaser and then to jump 3000 years later to a spaceship is great. “They didn’t nip… Read More »Doctor Who Story 171 – The Girl in the Fireplace

Doctor Who Story 170 – School Reunion

Tardisode Oh, it’s about Mickey. I really hoped it would be a precursor with Sarah Jane Smith. Episode Anthony Head! Yes! I love Giles. When you work in a school, do not eat children. It’s a bad idea. You should know better Giles, you usually just arm the children and make them kill vampires. Now you’re a beast and dining on children. I would like to have the Doctor as my teacher. Upset Rose is fantastic. Sarah Jane! Aww, the look on the Doctor’s face is so nice. He shows how the audience should feel to have perhaps the most iconic companion back on the show. It’s glee, and I… Read More »Doctor Who Story 170 – School Reunion

Doctor Who Story 169 – Tooth and Claw

Tardisode It took 300 years for the werewolfe to find a victim? Episode Scottish Monk Ninjas. This story is so ridiculous. It’s nice that the David Tennant gets to use his accent. “James McCrimmon!” I miss Jamie. Best companion, ever. If I were Vicky, I’d slap Rose. This episode is terrible. Oh, they got knighted. And now the Doctor is being exiled. She’s going to start Torchwood. Confidential Nothing to see here.

Doctor Who Story 168 – New Earth

Tardisode Really? That’s what they’re calling the mini-episode? Bad name. So this is an ad for a hospital. It adds nothing to the story. I think most will be like that. Episode I haven’t mentioned this before, but I’m so happy they got rid of face during the opening credits. David Tennant seems so happy to be the Doctor. Gross, don’t refer to your adventures as dates. Cassandra is horrible. I’m surprised they brought her back. “The lonely god…” I dislike this description of the Doctor. Also, I think the writers are overestimating Rose’s attractiveness. The Doctor is suspicious. Cassandra switching between the Doctor and Rose is amazing. He can… Read More »Doctor Who Story 168 – New Earth

Doctor Who Story 167 – The Christmas Invasion

The Christmas Invasion Aww, Jackie looks so sad. Okay, speaking of TARDIS sounds being so loud, Mickey can hear it while in a car shop with music blaring. David Tennant is great, and ending the teaser with “Doctor who?” is wonderful! I’m excited for Tennant’s run as the Doctor. “Tina has a lodger, a medical student.” It’s MARTHA!1 Mickey really needs to leave Rose. Why does he care about her. She has no interest in him. Also, Mickey, her bestie is ill, and she’s worried about him. He’s an asshole to assume that she should ignore that. Yay! David Tennent is awake! Only took 11 minutes. Much better than our… Read More »Doctor Who Story 167 – The Christmas Invasion
