Antilles Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 Thats pretty much the scores Id give the episodes although Id only give Dalek a 9, Im saving that golden 10 for something REALLY special! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 01 Rose - 6/10 02 The End Of The World - 7 03 The Unquiet Dead - 8 04 The Aliens Of London - 6 05 World War 3 - 6 06 Dalek - 9.5 07 The Long Game - 7 I still think that Rose was the weakest out of the seven so far, episode 7 was by no means the worst. But it did have a tough act to follow dalek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunrise Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 One thing that came from the Confidential to dispell the Master rumours. Did I hear correctly RTD is NOT bringing the Master back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V13T Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Ah I might as well share my thoughts on the series so far too. All the OTHER kids are doing it. Keep in mind that I have very little knowage of the classic series of Doctor Who, and these opinions are from someone who's previous experience with the program, is seeing it on TV in the early 80's, and teasing his older brother and telling him that he has the same hair cut as Dortor Who (Tom Baker). ANd yes, he DID have the same haircut, so the teasings WERE justified, not just a little punk running his mouth. 01 Rose - 7 <--- Nobody can expect the 'pilot' to be stellar, when they are introducing the main charecters, and establishing the mood and theme for a new audience (ie, guys like me). 02 The End Of The World - 6 <--- I don;t know what it was about this ep, but it seemed to drag on, and was very unintertaining for me. But the sostumes for the aliens were definatelly interesting, especially the concept of the last true human being a piece of stretched skin 03 The Unquiet Dead - 10 <--- Yes a 10. I LOVE Zombies, and the use of zombies made this episode extremely awesome for me :) I don;t care what anyone else says, but my opinion of the undead is non-negotiable. 04 The Aliens Of London - 9 <--- Great charecter development here, all accross the board. Great humor with The Doctor and "Rickey", and the little piggy running around all terrified on its hind legs was absolutely priceless, genuinely made me feel like a kid again. A very rare, and special treat, indeed! 05 World War 3 - 7 <--- All the farting jokes got a little stale, very dramatic, very touching parts with Rose and her Mother, a bit of humor with 'ricky". I didn;t care much for the Slitheen, as their motivation for blowing up a planet to sell radioactive, uh... dirt to fuel starships? I don;t know, dosent seem likely that that power source would do the trick, lol. 06 Dalek - 6 <--- I'm sorry, and I know that I'll get flamed, but I don't have the same nostalga for the Daleks as you guys :( Although, since this is my first dalek experience, I was pretty impressed with the overall "Bad-assedness" of this dalek, and how Rose made it question the purpose of exterminating. A good example of a good overcomming evil story. 07 The Long Game - 7 <---- Since I'm also in the process of watching Max Headroom, the theme of the Media controlling the masses is engrained in my mind, so I probabally would have given this a lower score. Best villian in the new series yet, in my opinion, had good chemestry / excellentetly scripted banter with The Doctor. And I think a lot of us can relate with the Adam side story. Trying to alter the past by 'borrwing' from the future, no matter how good the intentions are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not suprised the farts got stale after being stuck in thoses suits lmao sorry had to say that for a laugh. heres the start of the flaming (well not in a nasty way lol), you ask anyone in the british public what is the most famous enermy of the doctor and i bet at least 70% will say the daleks. The daleks go in hand in hand with dr who, its not the same if they dont pop up now and again. This had everything that you could wish for in a sci-fi episode, the drama, the action, the emotions and a top notch script. Chris's acting was the best in this by miles could he be up for a BAFTA??? could be !! This could give him the attention of hollywood in the future??

Daleks and Cybermen are magic. The Zygons COULD have been magic, but they never turned up again, dammit! If it hadn't have been for the Daleks, Doctor Who would have been a six-week series. So I've heard, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antilles Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 The Zygons were ok but next to Daleks, my favs are obviously Cybermen then Sontarans, I loved their weakness with the probic vent at the back of their necks hehe! Oh and not forgetting the Ice Warriors they were also the other enemies that had a few stories but very rarely get voted for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolcat13 Posted May 10, 2005 Author Share Posted May 10, 2005 I am not surprised that some of the newer Dr Who fans would find Dalek a little uninteresting .They do indeed lack the nastalgia .an enemy that the Dr has faced with mixed sucess for over 42 years now .So I wont flame but if you want a real treat down load a bunch of the Dalek episodes and watch them even those with Davros then go back and watch the Dalek episode again .willing to bet youd score it a bit higher . you would understand the guilt that the Dr felt as he blew his chance to wipe out the daleks completely .as a matter of fact no matter what the destruction of Galifrey can be attributed to the Dr as per his actions in Genesis of the Daleks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Chris's acting was the best in this by miles could he be up for a BAFTA??? could be !! This could give him the attention of hollywood in the future?? They'd just put him in the same garbage they put Clive Owen in (have you seen King Arthur? Jeeeezus.) He's too good for Hollywood. Yeah thought king arthur was a pile of crap to be honest, much prefer the older version. I know chris said he dont want to be typecasted but i do think he is making a mistake only making one season, as being Dr Who surely would get him well known throughout the english speaking and viewing world. Sorry Wreak, I was just highlighing that daleks are a household name in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
