I really don't understand these obsessions with comic book characters and superheroes. I mean really, get a life! Meep is fricken REAL. I bet you'd buy a giant plushie one stuffed full of Langfords pubes. |

This is a huge coup for the show to get two of its most beloved stars back in the helm of the TARDIS. Fans will tune in in huge numbers for sure.

Yeah, I think this will be the last time I'll tune into the new series. Maybe I'll give Ncuti a shot, but I'm happy to just watch Tennant own the part again and then let it go to pasture. |

Well apparently despite the odds, a lot of the movie reviewers I check on youtube have all said the new Predator Movie "Prey" is actually really good. I'm going to watch it soon and see for myself but I was firmly in the camp of never watching another new Alien or Predator anything again. So there is some hope. Maybe, just maybe, all the bullshit surrounding this new era is just poor and somehow it will be good... |

I'm not even going to watch the 60th. I had lost all interest anyway, but the inclusion of NPH clinged it for me. I don't see this as a good story being valued again. I see it as RTD unchained. Who knows where he will go with this one. Either way I'm out. I won't even watch Jodie's last episode to be honest. |

Tbf, I don't think any of the DW anniversary specials have been exceptionally good stories. The Three Doctors comes the closest, but it's executed in such a shoddy manner. Five Doctors is mostly just Terrance Dicks trying to find something for everyone to do. Dimensions in Time is iconic in its badness. Day of the Doctor is one big retcon, which spends half the time on a bizarre Zygon runaround that doesn't get a payoff until two years later. |

I'd always make a case that it's a really good story. The Five Doctors meanwhile is very clumsily written as a story, full of huge plotholes and gaps in logic, but I think it is held together by the cast, some terrific sequences and set pieces and some brilliant and frightening ideas like the Raston Warrior Robot and Borusa being condemned as a statue. Day of the Doctor was good at the time and could have held up if the subsequent era had made good on its promise of Gallifrey being back. The 60th however looks like even more of a celebration of New Who than the 50th was and with Beep the Meep as a villain and NPH a vile c*nt in the other. I struggle to think of any reason to watch it, other than David Tennant and I say that as someone who thinks he is overrated LOL. |

I'd always make a case that it's a really good story. It's a decent concept - I like Omega, I like the antimatter universe stuff. But Thorne doesn't really bring any subtlety to Omega, which wastes the inherent tragedy of the character. And the production just looks tacky on every level. It needed a different director, someone like Douglas Camfield or Michael Ferguson. Three Doctors is such a pedestrian-looking piece of television. It's late season 17 bad on a visual level. The other things that don't work for me are the guest characters who add nothing, and the flanderisation of the Second Doctor and the Brigadier. |

I prefer the Three Doctors to the Five Doctors myself. Both aren't exceptional stories, but they're the type of stories you should watch on a Saturday night with a big bag of sweets and a nice drink.

I'd say it's more of huge coup for the show to get its most beloved comic strip villain The Meep into the show myself. Who the hell cares about Tennant and Lauren Cooper? They were both pretty awful first time around. They should just get rid of all of the deadwood and have a show entirely devoted to The Meep instead. |
