Your dissenting Doctor Who opinions
I think that The Pirate Planet is better than City of Death, and probably Douglas Adams' magnum opus.
Is that blasphemy? Maybe.
If you must blink, do it now.

I think the BBC should've cancelled the show back on Logopolis.
I think the Davison era is far worse than the Colin Baker era.
I don't subscribe to the idea that the Doctor is or should be a pacifist.

We don't need threads like this because we already had one a few weeks ago and anyway people can say what they wish on a discussion board and it's best not to encourage people to say the same thing for the umpteenth time.
That's my dissenting opinion.
So this is permanence, love's shattered pride.
What once was innocence, turned on its side.
Delta and The Bannermen and Silver Nemesis really aren't that bad!
I know I'm very much 'swimming against the tide' on this one but I'll never understand the near-universal fan hate these two generate.
Not that I'm insinuating they're 'Who masterpieces either, obviously but both serials are enjoyable, fun and boast more than their fair share of good ideas and solid, inventive concepts.
Philistines.

Totally agree!
shareOh, and whilst I'm on a roll as it were with such outrageous Who-themed blasphemy: The Happiness Patrol (henceforth 'HP') is so comically overrated it hurts.
More frustrating though is that the lacklustre HP - a very mild 'ribbing' come satire of 'Fatcha' that inevitably flew right over my 9 year old head in 1988 has since been disingenuously 'upgraded' to be the fiendishly subversive, nay pseudo seditious indictment of Thatcherism it so obviously isn't.
Yep, Andrew Cartmel, Sly McCoy, Sophie Aldred and indeed many fans have all retrospectively indulged in a bit of self-congratulating revisionism post HP's transmission, puffing the story up to be something very daring when in truth it's a total lightweight. The Kandyman still looks great though!
HP for me at least is boring, surreal (and not in a good way), cheap (much of its budget was gobbled up by the overspending Remembrance of the Daleks, and it shows) and its purportedly fiendish political overtones all but lost on its then young target audience.
So there.

I am only on season 19, ep. 2, (also all of NEWWHO) but so far I actually like all of them, some more than others, but I can honestly say, I don't DISlike any of them

Creature from the Pit is actually a great episode.
In times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

"The Caves of Androzani" is overrated and overpraised.
