Monarchs ego made Sixes look like a pebble. I quite loved this serial, but I was disappointed in Adric for a moment. When I saw him agreeing with Monarch, I thought he was bluffing. You know, like in State of Decay. Though I hadn't seen that serial yet, it seemed like something Adric would do.

When Five was all serious or smiling, I think that was one of the times where we really saw the previous Doctors, even if it was unintentional. (I haven't seen the serial in a bit, so I don't know it was. All I know is this was the first serial that they filmed and produced. I really need to see it again.)

I had a lot of fun watching this. The space walk he had, really bad. I don't think that's how a space walk would look, ever. *laughs*

I'm jealous of Tegan's drawing skills too. I haven't been able to draw like that in years. :'(

Space helmets. *laughs*

There's just some much I can say for this, but I really can't think of it all right now. It was one of my first serials.

I think Monarch's ego puts every other ego ever to shame. And I think it's safe to say that Adric was the official Morality Boomerang of this story. No matter how many times he erred on the side of fail, he always came back. *hugtiem ( ... )

Adric did come back, which makes me happy. But this was to me the beginning of the end. This is where they start writing him wrong. (Which is really sad.) I want to hug him too.

I guess he mind was still recovering, in less obvious ways.

I find this story very watchable. I love it.

I'm a little naive at times and I try not to read about the actors themselves till I have seen EVERYTHING from the show.(Davison was an exception. That's because I've seen him in Campion. Netflix strikes again.) I didn't know about that. I admire him for that now.

Adric-hugtiem art is far overdue. Dammit, I did it for Bertie Wooster when the situation called for it, why can't I do this now...oh wait...class...(I really really do want to do this, though) I was just talking to my friend who lent me Black Orchid and mentions of Earthshock brought out a cry of "I LOVED HIM SO MUCH" from her.

I know what you mean, but I don't think I could hold off until after I'd seen ALL of them. Still, it can have its detriments. Notice how my last few Tom Baker commentaries have had some talk of the stories about his backstage behavior.

Hugtiem art. That sounds like fun. :D

I have a large amount of patience. I let a few things slip through though. (You can't help it with the extras and the commentary on the show.) I mean, even I have heard about Tom Baker's behavior.
