Day 07 - Least favorite episode of your favorite TV show

I'm going to mention two, and I make no apologies for this.

Pretty easy for me, this one. Time and the Rani is a stand-out stinker from the original series of Doctor Who. Bad in so many ways, from dreadful writing, poor acting, lacklustre direction... there is little this story does well. Pip and Jane Baker are writers who have only written one

I have to agree about End of Time. I'm not sure it was necessarily the worst story from the RTD era, but it had so much potential to be brilliant, and it threw it all away.

I was so dissappointed with EOT. We knew what was coming up, and it was like the worst farewell tour of an aging rocker. All sentimentality without any substance.

the actual "I don't want to go" line was heartbreaking, but god did we really need 15 minutes of that drivel to get to it?

I still come back to this -

- 10th Doctor knows he will die, spends all his time whingeing about it, then gets radiation poisoning and lives for quite a while before dying, so gets to do some nice stuff for closure, and after all the previous whingeing, gives a last little whinge then dies.

- 3rd Doctor knows he will die if he returns to the cave of crystal and the Great One, and does it anyway. Gets radiation poisoning, spends weeks lost in the time vortex all alone, and when he's finally dying back at UNIT, he's still trying to give his friends a little hope.
