seems the more "fun" they have making it, the more it sux to everyone else. How could this not be "fun". In eigth grade, we did crap that was "fun" too, and everyone but us, thought it sucked! We had fun! How do you get dry ice to stay in your pick up truck with all your fake floats during the school parade and go from 0 30 mph in less than 10 seconds? Well, you don't get it to.
It's about the limit of the late 70's switch from serious drama to comedy in the light of Mary Whitehouse complaints regarding too much horror and violence for the poor kiddies! She was talking crap of course, but it damaged the series and it never really recovered.
Another problem that I notice is that many stories that were written later on were just not suited for a serial format show. Although, even some of the oldest serials did kind of run far longer than they needed (honestly, a great deal of the serial "the chase" can be skipped without losing anything to the overall story).
This is partly due to the fact that writing serials was something that less and less writers had proper experiance with late in the original run.
LOL!

one of the funniest scenes in DW ever, except for the 'not computable' line. Tom Baker was a comic genius at times

Namely the Colin Baker era
*what I mean by that is that this is the only story in Tom's time that was worse than Colin's

I disagree. Meglos and The Invisible Enemy were both worse than this one.

Really all this humour was down to producer Graham Williams
AidanLunn 3 years ago 3
Actually, the BBC told the Graham Williams to make the show more comedic, because they felt it was getting too violent in the Hinchcliffe years.

Played by a bloke called David Brierly for a bit instead of the great John Leeson. Sounded like a stuffy old woman!

Speaking of David Brierly, I have some bad news, which you may or may not know already. He died of cancer on 10th June last year. RIP Dave
