Classic Who Reactions: The First Doctor

Oct 05, 2011 21:58

Taking my second crack at the series. I've now watched all the First Doctor serials from my list.

The Aztecs
The Rescue
The Chase
The Time Meddler



The Aztecs

Are they gonna make her a princess?

Oh, look, no suit for Ian.

Barbara adapted to that quickly enough.

These First Doctor episodes are just sooo damned slow.

For some reason, I'm imagining Aztec!Ian fighting Centurion!Rory.

I didn't think peopel fell for the Doctor in the classic series.

Barbara's such a BAMF.

"Where did you get hold of this." // "My fiancé." // "I see. ... Your what?!?" // "Yes, I made some cocoa and got engaged."

The Rescue

"Remember I can hear what you're saying." // Heh.

Dear heavens, that's a short skirt. Especially for the 60's.

I like that name, Koquillion.

The Chase

"I am redundant around here." // I was sort of thinking the same thing.

The Beatles!

Ian looks like such a dork just there.

It's weird to here them pronouncing the "h" in annihilate.

Also, I thought all the Dalek serials would have the world "Dalek" in the title.

Interesting that they keep physically blocking off the TARDIS to keep him there, whereas nowadays, he'd just decide to stay even though he could fly away.

"I don't think we shall run into them again." // Pfft.

Well, Alabama guy sounds slightly more convincing than New York guy at least.

"Well, dang me if they ain't gone and done it again."

This is a lot like that romp in 'The Daleks' Master Plan'.

No one's even asking, "Where's Vicki?"!!!

Finally!

That's pretty neat that they could have the Doctor fight his robo self in the 60's. Did Hartnell have a twin?

Ah, so that's where Steven came from. And it explains how he saw the Daleks before.

Okay...so...Sarah Jane said they hadn't aged since the 60's. I thought this one was supposed to explain that?

The Time Meddler

How the hell did Steven get into the TARDIS?

The Monk helped build Stonehenge? Did he know about the Pandorica underneath?

Next up for me: The Highlanders. And probably a few others before I post again.

reviewish stuff, doctor whoville, fanboy moment
