Picking between Genesis and Remembrance was tough, but I opted for Genesis.

Remembrance is my favourite, but I think Genesis is objectively better.

Do I even need to open my mouth here.

I do have a soft soft for Victory though too.

Best I would say is Remembrance. It’s just perfect in every way (and I should really get started on counter measures)

I’m voting Victory, because it needs all the love it can get, but Remembrance is a powerhouse of a story, and I really enjoy The Evil of the Daleks. (Original Dalek Emperor <3)
Destiny isn’t the best Dalek story, but it’s fun, and Romana has a great outfit (as always)

Remembrance. Genesis is good, but it isn’t delightful in the same way Remembrance is.

Remembrance! Because Countermeasures. And 7 and ace. It’s one of the highly rated stories that actually 100% deserves the hype.

Destiny and Eve are 2 others that I love, though.

It isn’t Genesis of the Daleks.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Genesis is great, but it’s a better Davros story than Dalek story. Power is the most threatening, intimidating, and effective the Daleks ever are.

I won’t comment on classic (I’ve only seen 3/9 so far (and even then 2 were animations, which I feel don’t give the stories a fair impression of the original work (ie the surviving episode of Evil is miles better than the animations imo))) so I’ll stick to best revival. Whilst I think on any other day it could easily be Asylum or Victory (depending which flaws annoy me least in the moment/highlights I remember most fondly) I’m going to be bold and say Eve.

Asylum as I loved the twist, and I do think the insane Daleks driven mad by the Time War and the Doctor is a great concept. I know some fans said how it didn’t make any sense, but then just look at Dalek Caan.

Power of the Daleks is marvellously tense and dark, so it’s an easy choice.

Remembrance is great, but I honestly need to rewatch it.

Eve of the Daleks is probably my favourite 13th Doctor episode.

Paradox of the Daleks is another really good story that should be on here. It’s not a time loop, but it feels like a time loop, and paradoxes are fun. It’s been a while since I listened to it but it’s probably been my favourite (except for all of Connections) of the recent post-arc-boxsets 8 releases.
