Ranking every TV Doctor Who Story by how well it uses K9

You read the Title, you already know what this is about. K9 had plenty of great Apperances in that stupid Show called ‘Doctor Who’, so why not rank those from worst Use of K9 to best Use of K9. Just copy the Stories listed here:

School Reunion
The Five Doctors
Warriors Gate
State of Decay
Full Circle
Meglos
The Leisure Hive
Shada
The Horns of Nimon

Destiny of the Daleks
The Armageddon Factor
The Androids of Tara
The Stones of Blood
The Pirate Planet

Episodes where they use K9 primarily as a weapon < Episodes where they use K9 primarily for his knowledge and computational ability

What’s your opinion on how Sarah Jane adventures uses K9?

Personally speaking, I haven’t watched enough of that Show to really have an Opinion on that Matter, but they seem to have used him very much in small dosses

Well, they introduce his archenemy Mr Smith and give him much more screentime than K9 so clearly they’re using him terribly

You get more K9 later on though. K9 and Mr. Smith not getting along is amusing.

I didn’t watch that show
Is Mr Smith the AI, Sarah’s husband?

Alien computer life-form, but not really her husband.

K-9 in SJA is either a deux ex machina or comic relief. I wish he’d been in the show more, but he was only in a handful of episodes. In “The Gift” (the season three finale), Clyde was so valid for taking K-9 to school for a science exam to cheat, tbh. Maybe I should take my stuffed K-9 to school for emotional support during finals, and see if anyone tries to stop me. /j

I love how you sound a bit unsure, he’s not really her husband…

They aren’t married :rofl:

Would have been really complicated in that episode where she does get married.
