    With the return of Mel and the mention of Sabalom Glitz, I decided to go back and watch Trial of a Time Lord. I marathoned all 14 episodes with fairly fresh eyes, I had not watched it in well over a decade. Each story is honestly super well put together, and the stories themselves are pretty interesting sci-fi on their own standing. The way the trial is woven into the stories, the edits, the way characters act “out of character” when in parts that had been manipulated within the Time Lord Matrix, feels well ahead of its time for 1986 television. also, it feels like a waste to have The Valeyard pop up and not be dead at the end, and then we never see him again. Like, that was a huge reveal. The Valeyard is actually The Doctor, but only his dark side, and is looking to eliminate his virtuous half. That honestly sounds like something straight out of modern Dr. Who. I’d always hoped we would see more of him.

    I had heard that this season was not well liked, and that Colin Baker was partially to blame for being not very popular as The Doctor… But I dunno. This season feels like an amazing season. I think it’s a shame Baker didn’t get one more season as was originally planned.

          Gerne doch, das mit der BRD ist inzwischen in meiner Autovervollständigung drin.

          B: Und nun lass uns die Angelsachsen in diesem Faden nerven.

              Ich komm, jetzt tu doch mal nicht so. Inzwischen wissen doch alle, das wir ein und die selbe Person sind.

                Wir sind hier doch gar nicht in unserer gewohnten Nachbarschaft. Hier auf c/memes wissen die Leute nichtmal wer EherVielleicht ist. Also woher sollen sie wissen, dass wir er sind?
