Nicholas Davis
Are Pertwee and Davison good? I like how they look aesthetically
Jaxon Gonzalez
As the Doctor, Pertwee is up there as one of the best. Davison never really gets into the role until Caves unfortunately and his stories suffer for it.
Stories wise, Pertwee has so many good ones but some really bad stinkers here and there (The Mutants, Claws of Axos, Planet of the Daleks). I think Davison has one of the worst good to bad story ratios of the whole programme. I can count on one hand the number of stories I would consider seriously good from his era.
Chase Butler
It wasn't and I've yet to be convinced that I'm wrong. I tried watching it again a little while ago and I managed 10 minutes before I had to turn it off.

>Davison has one of the worst good to bad story ratios of the whole programme Colin had one good story
Cooper Clark
People actually defend pure shite like Trial of a Timelord. That was fucking painful going through that boxset
Leo Brown
This man is correct

Carson Davis
Elaborate on why it is so bad, please?
Alexander Harris
It is one big Moffatt style Doctor speech stretched out to 50 minutes and everyone fell for it as some deep, philosophical meta episode. Capaldi's lines from what I can remember are nearly all embarrassing attempts at humour or unnecessary melodrama. Although this could describe every single one of his episodes to greater or lesser degree. It's not his worst but I don't know what I'd call his best.

Dylan Miller
Can you reccomend some Pertwee?
Cameron Price
I never once believed it to be deep myself. I just liked the idea of the episode. Also Capaldi is one of my favourite Doctors, so I am biased
Juan Diaz
All of season 7 All of season 8 apart from Claws of Axos Day of the Daleks, Sea Devils All of season 10 apart from Planet of the Daleks All of season 11 apart from Death to the Daleks (although Sarah Jane is in a swimsuit for the first 5 minutes)
Alexander Mitchell
>>The Sea Devils What makes the Sea Devils better than Silurians?
Jace Brown
>The Horror at Fang Rock I think Fang Rock starts off really strong but the tension disappears completely when the Rutan reveals itself to be a barely mobile blob
Hunter Sanders
>Also Capaldi is one of my favourite Doctors He was a real disappointment for me. He tried being too mobile and energetic but his skinny, wooden frame doesn't allow for it.
Easton Nelson
People like Heaven Sent for actual reasons that they can explain with examples.
You hate it because it irrationally annoys you (possibly related to some complex you have about Moffat), and you will never, ever be capable of explaining what it does wrong, or why you are so incapable of enjoying any Capaldi episode. It's a real pity.
Asher Sanders
But I did give reasons. I couldn't give specific examples because that would involve watching it again.
Brandon Hill

>People like Heaven Sent for actual reasons that they can explain with examples. Oh and please go ahead. I really do want to try and change my mind
Adam Reed
The plot (and twist) fall apart on a second viewing, because they make no sense. The entire prison resets itself (except for when it's convenient for the plot). As a mystery/ thriller it fails completely. Outside of that, it's Moffat sticking his dick in the Doctor's back-story again, in a way that adds absolutely fucking nothing to the character, yet at the same time acts as a glaring contradiction. The Doctor's greatest fear is a corpse he saw when he was six? Despite the fact he fought in the Time War, has seen the Dalek death camps, seen a billion corpses in much more horrific states?
Nah.
Henry Thompson
Personally I got into disliking Moffat's style because it tried being too cute during its moments of trying to be serious in order to give that wacky badass vibe like is done for Rick and Morty. It's like a whole lot of Pickle Rick.
