A complete ranking and review of the Sixth Doctor's original era from 1984-1986.
Honestly, I know the Sixth Doctor gets a lot of hate and some of it is definitely justified but I'd say the dislike for his era is definitely overexaggerated. Yes he has one of the worst stories of the show's history but he also has some of the most adult and thought-provoking of the 1980s which have sadly become overlooked. It's definitely not a perfect era but definitely not bad.

Personally I'd switch the scores of the two doctors (it drags a bit in episode 2, but if I couldn't tolerate that half of classic Who would be unwatchable) and attack of the cybermen (the cryon costumes!) - but otherwise largely in agreement.

That's fair, I just think the Two Doctors drags way too much, if it was a 2 parter I think I could love it

I never felt like it dragged quite that much as it is a two hander similar to modern two parters like the pandorica opens/ the Big Bang. Definitely the second hand dragged but I do so love the performances, I would never in a million years ask for less Troughton, especially with all the missing episodes. You’re not wrong, but I will always look on The Two Doctors as a gift. Especially as when I first saw it we had fewer Troughton stories to watch and no animated reconstructions.

That’s very true tbf, his era is sadly so lost :(

Colin Baker's Doctor was let down by poor scripts, sometimes amateurish acting and the continuation of Peri and the American accent. I don't mind the outfit - it did and does seem otherworldly not in design but the fact it was 'chosen' by the Doctor and very outlandish. Colin Baker did better come to 'fit' the role as time went on. I don't doubt that had the series continued his portrayal of the Doctor would have improved, but such was not to be. I agree with the assessment made, very fair.

Thank you, and yeah I like Colin and he got some great stories but some forgettable/bad ones too :(
