Blasphemy in the Doctor Who Universe

[lesbiassparrow]

Oh, I got the blasphemy, I got it here. Having watched several episodes of Hartnell I am now horrifically annoyed by all the people who told me I should watch him. Because he is sort of rubbish and floppy and does not do very much. And he disappears for much of the story which is not very interesting as I bought the DVDs because they said 'Doctor Who' not 'Random humans die horribly.' Which they do.

Also while I am at it, I am not sure that I like the Seventh Doctor. Or Ace. I go backwards and forwards on this one, because I know Ace has some elements that are quite admirable, but then there's Ghostlight and I have no idea what is going on and Ace's revelation in the episode really, really annoys me for some bleeding reason. So there you go. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa, etc.

You can diss Hartnell but I will protect Seven liek woah.

PS: Do not admit to finding it confusing. We're trying to get that declared an urban myth. Thnx. *kiss*

Seven would not be disturbing were it not for horrific Mel. Who could withstand the terror that is Bonnie Langford?

Also Ghost Light has the most elaborate commentary but still I findz it v. confuzing. Sorry. *iz slow*

The commentary is where they say stuff is in it that so totally isn't. THEY LIE. Well, they speak true, but only in the sense of "and in my head we got this across clearly"

I like the bits where they talk about things like and 'we had a stamp on the envelope that clearly showed where we were going in the story and you are very stupid for not understanding.'

omg watch Troughton!

I don't mind Troughton because he is actually mobile and I don't worry he will have a heart attack getting up the stairs. Hartnell scares me because I am afraid he will have a heart attack on screen. And that's not the good sort of scared.
