What Are You Currently Watching?

Woah hang on are you stealing my job of trying to promote people to listen to Gallifrey!! I’m so proud :smiling_face_with_tear:

That’s how I tend to think of Arc. It’s extremely just… there, like quite a bit of the Davison era.

I do like the way Nyssa is written, though– she gets to be a bit more independent and active. Much as I love Tegan, she tends to overshadow the other companions a bit.

I find her going crazy with a Gallifrey staser very funny. This is currently my profile picture on Spotify:

I don’t dislike Arc of Infinity, but I think it does just become a runaround that goes nowhere by the end.

It’s my favourite of the 60th anniversary.

Oh. Any of them over Wild Blue Yonder is not the common take you see.

I don’t like Wild Blue Yonder. I find it a boring angst-fest. A waste of an hour.

Damn. I think it’s not quite the 10/10 great one that so many do. Certainly not “best episode since Heaven Sent” that I’ve heard said, but I think it’s pretty good. Some of the effects really take me out of it, like the obvious green screen and honestly the prosthetics didn’t work for me either, just all felt a little too cartoonish, but I like the story. Star Beast is probably my least favorite of the 60th, though it has plenty to like in it.

Watched the Celestial Toymaker. The reconstruction, not the animated version.

Mixed bag for me. I like the mindgames and the Doctor and the Toymaker, less so Stephen and Dodo’s games.

I’m half-way through Inferno now. I think Classic Series 7 may be one of the strongest seasons of Doctor Who. All 4 serials are bangers. The weakest would be The Ambassadors of Death, but even that has enough going on to keep my interest.

Quoted for truth! It’s a solid season, helped by the fact that it is so short, so there’s not a lot of room for stinkers. I also find Ambassadors the weakest of the lot and Spearhead and Inferno are both superb.

Blasphemy! We have to banish you now!

Heaven Sent is good but overrated. It is not even the 12th Doctors best episode.

Finished WBY now. It is really one of the very best. I think that it is the third time watching it, and I think I like it more every time!

Giggle next!

Well, this is something we can agree on! I love Wild Blue Yonder!

You’re saying this just to appease Shauny, right? Just because it has River in it doesn’t make it the best :wink:

Dark Water is great and Listen is good as well.
