Some of Tennant's best acting, the high point for the Doctor as a character and one of the only times he as a character belonged on prime time tv rather than a kids show. Bernard Cribbins was excellent and they both succeeded in creating an emotive and powerful performance. The use of beautiful latin choir elevated both of the episodes, and especially made the regeneration scene one of the most emotional and moving sequences in all of tv and film.
This was the final episode of nu-Who for anyone who cares about quality. This was the finale the franchise deserved. But instead we just saw our beloved, longest running sci-fi turn into another socially regressive pandering void of soul or entertainment. Fuck bros, why does this have to happen to everything I love?
Doctor Who is dogshit and you're a retarded faggot

It ended well but all the stuff about 'The Secret Books of Saxon' and regeneration stuff was stupid nonsense
>This was the final episode of nu-Who for anyone who cares about quality Not a chance, Matt Smith had plenty of better episodes

It was a big masturbation session for everything awful about the RTD era.
Brandon Jenkins
I completely agree. RTD was always pulling shit out of his ass to make episodes work and no one ever called him on it cause he always threw in a line for the Doctor like "didn't you know i could do that?" or "Oh yeah I've had that little device in my pocket the whole time." FUCK RTD!
Cameron Bailey
>wah the Doctor was too human and relatable >I want a Doctor who is a quirky caricature or completely emotionally dead >I don't want compelling emotive dialogue >I want le funni quips and le silly music to let you know the scene is XD
Moffat was even worse with asspulls and his story arcs made zero sense. He was also shit at catharsis for his arcs, and his dialogue was like MCU dialogue
Brody Russell
>It ended well but all the stuff about 'The Secret Books of Saxon' and regeneration stuff was stupid nonsense I won't argue. You have to admit the payoff for the four knocks was brilliant though. >Not a chance, Matt Smith had plenty of better episodes I only really liked his first season. I could stand his run with the Doctor/ Amy/ Rory trio but anything past that was cancer. I will admit also there were some kino episodes like Amy's choice, but I just think the overall quality of the seasons wasn't as good as the RTD era.
Justin Gray
>You have to admit the payoff for the four knocks was brilliant though Yeah that was really great, The Waters of Mars (my favourite Tennant episode) had me totally convinced that it was going to be a villain knocking before they killed the Doctor.
Josiah Hill
Ninth Doctor most kino episodes: >Dalek >Father's Day >The Empty Child Tenth Doctor: >The Girl in the Fireplace >The Impossible Planet >Utopia three parter (yes I count it as a three parter) >Silence in the Library >The Family of Blood >Midnight >Turn Left >The Stolen Earth >The Waters of Mars >The End of Time Eleventh Doctor: >The Beast Below >Amy's Choice >Vincent and the Doctor >The Doctor's Wife >The Girl Who Waited >A Christmas Carol >The Time of the Doctor Please note that for two parters you can assume I mean both parts, I've just named one from each for convenience- I consider two parters one episode. Also, I've stopped at Eleven because I dropped consistent viewing during his run and lost interest.
Have I missed any anons?
Anthony Bell
The End of Time is an clusterfuck. DINNER TIME! Financial solution...DELETED!!! Pull your head out of your ass.
Christian Hernandez
>implying "DINNER TIME!" wasn't kino go back to r3ddit
Jason Wright
I know it's gotten a lot of praise already, but surely Blink deserves to be on the list? And what about Army of Ghosts (x2)?
For Eleven, it looks like I liked the story arcs more than you, I'd add
>The Time of Angels (x2) >The Pandorica Opens (x2) >The Impossible Astronaut (x2) >The Rebel Flesh (x2) >A Good Man Goes To War >Asylum of the Daleks
But I'd remove The Time of the Doctor which I thought was a really lacklustre send off compared to what Tenant and Ecclescake got. The Beast Below was a very good episode but I'm not sure I'd include it on the list, the mystery stuff at the start was very engaging but I thought it was overall a bit twee, which Moffat had a tendency to slip into.
I think Asylum was the last of the truly great episodes, bringing Clara in as a companion really spoiled the emotional gutpunch ending, that said Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS was a solid 8/10, if not for all the Clara stuff in the climax it'd warrant being on the list.
Ian Wright
Yeah I was harsher on 11 since I just didn't like the story arcs that much, so the payoff episodes didn't mean much to me, as entertaining as they were. Also, I'll admit I forgot to put Blink on there, new I was missing something- although it undoubtedly is overrated, especially when people put it in their top episodes of all time or whatever. It was still a great episode though and one of 10's best (despite him not being in it that much). Yeah, The Time of the Doctor was a bit understated but I thought the send off understood his character perfectly. The sentimental episodes are some of my favourite with 11, they really clash with his more alien personality in a good way. Journey to the Centre of the TARDIS was ruined a bit for me by those three black guys; their characters were just shit
Colton Anderson
Stupid episode, why the fuck did The Master have super powers and the knock three times twist was painfully anticlimatic
Isaac Murphy
He knocked four times, and it being so understated was what made it so great. What did you want it to be? I admit the master having super powers was nonsensical and a bit pointless but it hardly ruined the episode
Daniel Ward
Journey to the Center of the Tardis was ruined by the forced inclusion of "monsters". The episode is set in the middle of a spaceship that's infinite and in the process of exploding, surely surreal environmental dangers would have been more interesting than being chased through corridors by notZombies.
Bentley Hughes
Give me RTD cheese over Moffat pretension any day.
Lucas Cox
Twelfth Doctor >Flatline >Mummy on the Orient Express >Under the Lake/Before the Flood >Heaven Sent >Extremis >World Enough and Time (fuck all happens in the second part)
Kevin Parker
I watched Heaven Sent even though I have not seen much of Capaldi's run. Great episode and great premise, so I'll agree it goes on the DW kino pile. Extremis was good but the whole "power of love" bullshit in the third part was fucking stupid. She loved her mum so much she defeated the aliens that had the power to completely simulate the Earth. Terrible asspull ending
>the best tv is some rip of off Star Wars, hammy acting and over the top nonsense, skeleton ghost master eating homeless people, Obummer turning into the master and retarded political messages.
Jose Lee
for some reason, the master eating a hamburger was fun and memorable.
Xavier Bennett
youtube.com/watch?v=UszT_L4QWII The Masters all laughing after converting the human race into him is complete cheese kino. Maybe you just need to develop a sense of fun
Aaron Foster
This two parter was some of the best tv ever produced and broadcast on British television
Some of Capaldi's best acting, the high point for the Doctor as a character and one of the only times he as a character belonged on prime time tv rather than a kids show. Michelle Gomez was excellent and they both succeeded in creating an emotive and powerful performance. The use of beautiful soprano singing elevated both of the episodes, and especially made the death scene one of the most emotional and moving sequences in all of tv and film.
This was the final episode of nu-Who for anyone who cares about quality. This was the finale the franchise deserved. But instead we just saw our beloved, longest running sci-fi turn into another Netflix-tier pandering void of soul or entertainment. Fuck bros, why does this have to happen to everything I love?
This. Plebs just didn't appreciate it. This was the highest point in the series. It ended there.
Benjamin Martinez
should have been the finale of the show. they had the doctor on the verge of killing himself and then they just never made a convincing case for why he'd suddenly just snap out of it
Dominic Walker
>just finished watching the classic Dr Who streams on twitch >nobody to talk to dr who about on Yea Forums anymore
Henry Hall
Has the general stopped?
Cameron Mitchell
We jumped ship to that other double place to it's own board Generals aren't allowed when the show isn't running so we got "banned"/terminated.
Xavier Price
This ten parter was some of the best tv ever produced and broadcast on British television.
Some of Troughton's best acting, the high point for the Doctor as a character and one of the only times he as a character belonged on prime time tv rather than a kids show. Frazer Hines was excellent and they both succeeded in creating an emotive and powerful performance. The use of the Time Lords elevated both of the final two episodes, and especially made the memory wipe scene one of the most emotional and moving sequences in all of tv and film.
This was the final episode of Who for anyone who cares about quality. This was the finale the franchise deserved. But instead we just saw our beloved, longest running sci-fi turn into another Technicolor pandering void of soul or entertainment. Fuck bros, why does this have to happen to everything I love?
ah. well at least you have some kind of a home, although that place isn't very active
Brody Jones
It depends. The jannies were right because the threads would struggle here but if a conversation took off it would be fine. I hate the trips and personalities that are there to troll. If they contribute that is fine but half of the time it's bullshit.
Camden Hill
Yeah I always wanted to get into Dr who and see what it was about but fuck there's so many episodes and I wouldn't know where to begin so the twitch stream was nice. Just started at the beginning and went all the way to 7. They did a rerun a few months ago and just recently did all the episodes with Daleks in them, maybe it'll come back again when they aren't doing Pokemon. I did manage to find a mega Torrent of 1-7 and a bunch of missing episodes and bonus stuff was all included as well. I guess if they ever did a nu Who stream I'd check that out too, but those are probably easier to find anyway
