The Death of /Who/ Edition
/who/ - Doctor Who General
Unironically love Turlough.
It’s dead.
I’m rewatching during lockdown & up to Human Nature.
Contrary to my feelings a few weeks ago S12 has not retroactively ruined Doctor Who.
Couldn't possibly. It's not canon.
Fuck Clarafags.
Fuck Capaldifags.
Fuck Moffags.
Jackie is a better character than everyone in all of Moffwho
>look at me I'm a massive slag
RTDfags will defend this

Thot of Rassilon
Yeah, how it didn't get cancelled after that I don't know
Damn, people were ugly 50 years ago.
Actually, two thirds of trial is okay. The Vervoids segment is just really dull.
>3. Planet of the Daleks
huh why
Check out Nuns on the Run, she really was cute.
It's fucking tedious shit that epitomises the reason why they moved to one six parter per series in Baker's era. It's that or the Mutants

>8. The Empty Child
Based and mommy?pilled
Is Dragonfire any good? I haven't watched it in years.
>Sleep No More
I see people shit on this one a lot but I've ever watched it. Why is it meant to be so bad?
Fun fact: in Japan that line had to be changed to "are you my parent?" because the direct Transliteration of the phrase is a line used to pick up older women and wouldn't have been appropriate for a child to say.
I'd actually say Let's Kill Hitler is way worse.
Fuck Clara yes she ruined fucking Moffat's run.
What an annoying character. Moffat insisting on making the "definitive" doctor who companion for some reason. The closest to "definitive" companions are fucking Ian Susan and Barbara, Jamie, Sarah Jane, and Rose. That's it.
>The closest to "definitive" companions are fucking [...] Rose
>all of the Trial
Pleb
It's alright. Based inexplicably violent 80's Who.
Also what do you think is the most overrated story?
It has Ace, so it's great.
She's the first NuWho companion, was the most beloved one for five straight years, beloved enough to come back for the 50th instead of any other ones, and the first NuWho ep is named after her.
Yes, she's the definitive NuWho companion.
I was with you until that last bit, man.
The Space Pirates for 2. Unless someone has another valid pick, I’m not choosy.
Ace is a better Rose than Rose is
>inexplicably violent
As a ghoulish shithead raised on Arnold Schwarzenegger movies I loved all that stuff.
Rose is just Ace without everything that makes Ace a fun character. Also, less cute than Sophie.
>what do you think is the most overrated story?
1. (Nobody hypes up 1)
2. (Nobody hypes up 2)
3. Inferno
4. Genesis of the Daleks (Forgettable outside of the concept)
5. Caves of Androzani (It's good, but the greatest story ever?)
6. N/A (NOBODY hypes him up)
7. N/A (nobody really hypes any of his episode up besides Remembrance, which deserves it)
8. N/A (Only had the movie)
9. The Doctor Dances (Doctor saves the day in typical fashion, somehow this is one of the best stories?)
10. BLINK (fucking hell, most overrated story ever)
11. Vincent and the fucking Doctor (my fucking christ, this is just a shitty biographical with a MotW in, this is Fear Her tier for me and yet people treat it like some masterpiece)
12. Heaven Sent
13. Orphan 55 (It's not really too shit, but it's hyped up as one of the worst stories ever. I actually thought it was a bit better than the average 13 story.)
I would.
1. The Sensorites
2. The Underwater Menace
3. Invasion of the Dinosaurs

11. I dunno
12. The Doctor Falls
>12. Heaven Sent
Literally the peak of NuWho.
>4. Brain of Morbius
Just in itself or because it inadvertently caused the death of the show?
Thank you for proving my point!
Well, this new level of infamy doesn't help it much, but it popped up on best of lists every now and then and I never got it
It's arguably the last good episode of the show.
>12. The Doctor Falls
Why though?
Woah, proving it even more.
It's a good story with a moody atmosphere. That whole era of Baker gets a little oversold though because people are so nostalgic for it.
It's boring, it's ugly, the ending is dreadful, it completely wastes the Masters, and it dropped the ball on everything the first part set up. Bill as a Cyberman was almost interesting but it never gets there. Capaldi is incredible but that's true of every episode so it's not exactly special.
1. The Daleks
2. Tomb of the Cybermen
3. Frontier in Space
4. Brain of Morbius
5. Snakedance
6. Revelation of the Daleks
7. Survival
8. Anyone who says the movie is good
9. Dalek
10. Human Nature/Family of Blood
11. Doctor's Wife
12. Heaven Sent
13. Any episode which you say is good
Yeah, it's FINE. But that's it.
Never quite got the appeal of Sarah Jane for that matter. Much prefer the Leela and Romana eras.
She was a good actress generally and played an important role as a powerful female character who wasn't a stuck up bitch or an airheaded bimbo.
In comparison, Leela was two-dimensional savage, and Romana was 2smrt4u
>Snakedance
I didn't even think this was rated yet alone overly so.
They were more entertaining though.
Perhaps to a philistine.
Sarah Jane is vanilla.
>11 didn't just move on or repress the memory of counting the dead children
>Turns out River actually just deleted the knowledge from his mind, tee hee funny clown robot
>10 attacks and beats the shit out of 11 in this massive sperg out for no reason
This Day of the Doctor novel is atrocious.
Most of the women I know are like Sarah Jane. I don't know any cool babarian women from space.
