Thomas And Friends TV Series "Thomas Goes Fishing" Review

Thomas And Friends right is in the middle of a big relaunch with a new special currently doing the rounds of both Netflix and Youtube. However it is still important to look back on when the show began and it's early years as nine times out of ten that you find a true gem of a story with the story that i'm going to be reviewing for you all today perhaps being one of those hidden gems from the shows first season and so then join me as I review the episode that sees Thomas going fishing with the episode is question being called simply just "Thomas Goes Fishing" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is when Thomas needs to take on water but can't due to the pump at a station being broken he and his crew find something unexpecting when they use water from the local river. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. This episodes plot was a pretty fun almost nothing plot as it doesn't advance Thomas as a character and is just there just to have some jokes in it and while this is something that does make the episodes plot feel like a filler plot. It's a filler plot that's done rather well as it does give the chance to show us some of Thomas's branchline and it does give us the chance to see how Thomas's crew have to sometimes improvise and while yes the plot of this episode is one that could have been a bit more better as it is a nothing plot and it is one that could have had a more stronger plot to it but given the fact that in the series canon are building up to the debut of Percy and those two episodes it does make sense that we would have a more lighter episode in the lead up to those two episode but again it still would have been nice if this episodes plot was alot more stronger as having the whole thing revolve around Thomas struggling to get some water isn't all that compelling of a story and is something that would have been better of being just a throwaway scene in another episode with the plot of this episode also being really rather entertaining and as well being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this episode is Sir Ringo Starr with him really making for a really good narrator for this episode. As he does have alot of youthful energy for for this story and with it essentially being a solo story for Thomas this is something that does work well enough in the episodes favor as the episode can't relay on the other characters to make the story interesting and therefor Sir Ringo does have to sound perfect when he's voicing the character with this something that he does pull of with ease with you getting the feeling that this was a story that he either liked growing up as a kid or that he himself read it to his kids as he does sound full of life when he's reason this story as it wouldn't make sense for him to sound this full of life if he didn't have some sort of personal connection to the story. While Sir Ringo doesn't usually do any voices for this first series of the show this is something that does really work in this episode due to the fact that really only four characters talk and none of them have any distinct voices to them in the first place however this is something that does also cause an issue within the episode as if you close your eyes and just listen to the episode outside of a few scenes where the episode outright says who is talking you wouldn't be able to tell just who is talking to who and this is something that really isn't Ringo's fault as he isn't a trained actor and he never will be therefor to expect him to give all of the characters voices would have been a but to much of an ask as he was only hired in the first place due to the fact that he was at the time a very well known name and therefor having him sound as much as he normally does is something that does makes sense but it still would have been nice if we did get to hear more distinct voices in the episode tho.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. The fact that we have some really good acting in this episode is somethin that really isn't all that shocking as this show has always had some really good narrators in it and while of course the show would get better narrators the more it goes on there is no denying the fact that Sir Ringo Starr does make for a good narrator in this first series with him being really good in this episode as his voice does lend itself really well to telling this story. With the best actor in this episode of course being Sir Ringo Starr as he is the episodes only actor with him having the kind of silky smooth voice that is just right for this more relaxing story and it is something that is put to good use in this episode with him hitting all of the right notes performance wise and just overall being fun to listen to in this episode and while any of the shows UK narrators would have made for a good choice to do this episode what Sir Ringo brings to the episode from a performance point of view is a sense of childlike wonder as you do get the feeling he is just a big kid having fun reading this episode and it is something that does work for this episode with him having this natural charisma that really does sine through in this episode. With the acting that's in this very episode really being helped by the fact that this episodes script is just so good that all this episodes actor has to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of him naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very episode.

This episodes setting was something that did look really good as it's not all that often that we get to see alot of detail hidden in the shows sets. With us getting alot of fun little details going on in the background of the sets for this episode like for example we get workers working at a train station and we get to see people fishing in river these are small things yes but they also help to make the world of Sodor feel more alive as these are things that we would get to see in our everyday lives therefor it would make sense that we would get to see it in this episode and while later model seasons had dropped this aspect of the sets it is something that we get in alot of the first series episodes and it's something that should have been kept in alot of the show. In this show and in this episode it's the little things that help to make the biggest difference like showing that people are not only working but also on the train station it helps to make that station look busy and it tells us the audience that that is a popular station on Thomas's branchline or the fact that we et to see people fishing in the background this is something that it could be argued lets us know that this is where Thomas got the idea to try fishing out in the first place and it's something that is missing in alot of the later model seasons of the show with those sets making up for it by having alot of dynamic camera moves here tho the makers of this episode couldn't do that and therefor they instead chose to add in bit of detail that no one would notice upon a first or even second viewing but it's something that once you do notice them you can't unsee them as they feel right at home in the scene. 

Thomas in this episode felt kind of off in this episode as he is pretty much halfway between completing his series long arc with Gordon and learning to be more grown up and still being his cheeky self. Which is something that does lead to him feeling a little bit off in this episode as we get a scene with him calling James a stick in the mid or saying that engines don't go fishing and yet even this more childlike version of Thomas wouldn't want to go fishing as as he says in quite literally the next episode he like's his rails and therefor why would he want to do something that would require him to get away from his rails and be away from being able to move and yet when they do get the fish out him it's clear that he hasn't really learnt his lesson as he just repeats what James said earlier. To be fair this episode is one of the early episodes of the show as it's only the twelfth episode of the show and therefor the makers of this episode are of course still trying to work out just who there version of Thomas is and while they do have a helping hand in this regard due o the fact that all of the stories at this time were being adapted from the books there still would have to have been changes made inorder to make the story work for the show and part of those changes would have been how certain characters are handled therefor the makers of this show would still be trying to work out who there version of Thomas is and to be fair this is something that we do see in this episode as he acts neither fully childlike and nor does he act fully wise either when it would have helped the episode out a bit if we did start to get hints of him becoming more wiser, it is possible that this episodes script was one of the first written due to the fact that the episode doesn't portray Thomas as neither childlike or wise which if so then fair enough but there still could have been changes made when they found what the running order was going to be for the episodes in this first series.

This episode is very much a nothing episode but its really a nothing episode in all of the right ways possible. As even tho the episode doesn't advance Thomas's series long arc of learning to trust Gordon more this is something that would stop the episode from being alot of fun to watch as sometimes being more fun to watch is more important then advancing a characters plot as this is something that would have bogged the episode and it wouldn't have made sense for Gordon to be on Thomas's branchline in the first place therefor having the episode be a more fun episode is something that does work in the episode with it even allowing for there to be more jokes in the episode as the episode doesn't have to worry about character arcs it can just be a fun episode and that's it. This is something that is great as not every episode of this or any show needs to be about advancing a characters arc even more so if the show like this one is is aimed at little kids as sometimes just being a fun episode is more then enough to get people to like it and while yes this episode could be seen as being one of the more weaker series one episodes which is something that would be a fair point to make it could also be argued that the things that make it weak are also the things that make it alot of fun to watch and to a little kid being more fun to watch is more important then advancing a characters arc as that's what there going to remember the next day and this is something that this episode does have going for it as there are alot of fun aspects in this episode with the fact that the episode does go out of its way to tell us how many holes are in the bucket and then tell us how long it took them to fill Thomas's tank along with the episodes more lighthearted nature being things that do make this episode alot more fun to watch.

While it is hard to say on if this episode is a fan loved episode or not as there really isn't anything to this episode. The thigs that the episode does have it has going for it rather then working against it as it would have been super easy for the makers of this episode to just write this episode of as being a filler episode and not put that much thought and effort into it which they would have had every right to do and yet they didn't as you can tell in alot of the episode there is alot of thought and effort going into making this episode which you could very easily skip over and miss nothing important to the series and yet there is still alot more thought and effort put into this filler episode then what there really needed to be. Be from as was mentioned things going on in the background to real life train facts like Thomas's driver and fireman putting up danger signs around Thomas to warn not only other trains but also other people that Thomas is in series danger this is something that real life work crews would have to have done in order to make sure that there wasn't a major accident and it's something that the makers of this episode put into the episode yes granted they pretty much had to do it as they were adapting a story from the books but it's the fact that they did it in the first place that does show that this show does teach you things about how trains are run which is something that does make it more of a family show and less of a straight forward kid show as yes there are things in this show that only little kids will love but then as is the case with this episode there are things that the whole family will love and this is something does need to be taken into account when people say that this show is just for little kids because while yes they are the target demographic the whole show is for the whole family to watch together.

Now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly five minuets and thirty two seconds. Which is pretty much the bogstanderd running time for alot of these early episodes to have and to be fair this is an episode that does work best within that time frame as the story is so weak and so small in the first place that to stretch this plot out to even ten minuets would be pushing the plot beyond breaking point as it would means that we would have to have alot of filler scenes in the episode which is something that would make the episode feel more like a chore to sit through as we'd be sitting through five minuets worth of filler content just to get to five minuets worth of plot with the episode really having the right amount of plot there to really cover that amount of running time in the first place. With the episode not really using it's running time all that wisely due to the fact that the episode really doesn't take the time to fully develop its plot granted there really isn't all that much plot there to develop in the first place but it still would have been nice if the episode did add things to the plot that help it feel more developed like showing or telling us why Thomas wants to go fishing in the first place which is a small thing but given that that's important to the episodes plot it would have been nice to find out why he wanted to go fishing in the first place with the makers of this episode being more focused about having the opening music in the episode play for a good while into the episode then they were about giving the plot for much needed plot development. The same thing is also trye for the episodes character development as one of the episodes character get character development which given that this show made for little kids is kind of understandable and you can always argue the at the characters would get there development in later episodes of the show but we still needed for there to be something in this episodes that makes the character feel alot more development with the makers of this episode putting more thought and effort into showing the human characters fishing then they did into giving the characters some character development but I really will admit that this episode really does have some really good pacing to it tho.

So now then as this is comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. The episode really does have alot of funny moments in it with them even bringing back the fact that The Fat Controller is to lazy to do things from the "The Sad Story Of Henry" episode with him here just telling Thomas's crew how to fish and not willing to help them with it himself. With the best joke in the whole entire episode even involving The Fat Controller as when we find out that Thomas's crew had cooked the fish and eaten the with Chips for there lunch we see him wiping his mouth clean with Sir Ringo adding in adding in an "Mmmm" making it sound like that he really enjoyed it which was a really cute joke to have with it being something that does catch you of guard with it working because of the fact that you didn't see it coming with the joke itself even making sense in the context of the episode as of course these characters would eat there fish with chips and of course The Fat Controller would openly admit to enjoying it as that is in his character to do so and heck this joke even got a little chuckle out of me when watching it as it is a joke that really does work with there not really being anything that could have been to make the joke be all the more better as it's one that does work as well as its ever going to with the rest of the episodes jokes being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall whilst it is hard to say if this episode is a fan favorite episode what can be said for sure is that it is a fun episode that whilst it doesn't have much in the way of a plot as the plot for this episode is pretty bare bones at best it more then makes up for that with its rally funny jokes in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked abut all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and such that really es mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of q0 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . UK and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Scrubs "My First Time in a While" and "My Mentee" SPOILER FILLED Review

TV revivals are very hard to do as they have to attract new fans whilst also keeping the fans that the original show had in the first place. With one of the shows that got this right being the Scrubs revival from earlier this year so much so that people where happy when it got renewed for more episodes with the latest season not finally debuting and so then join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED review of the episodes that pretty much signal that a certain classic character might not make it out of this season alive and well with the episodes in question being called simply just "My First Time in a While" and "My Mentee" enjoy.

The plot of "My First Time Ever" is J.D. and friends have to come together to try and find out why the treatment for Dr. Cox isn't working and the plot of "My Mentee" is J.D. finds someone that he can mentor and Dr. Samantha "Sam" Tosh has to decide what her specialty is going to be. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the plots that are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plots that are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. Both of these episodes do have strong plots with the plot for "My Mentee" of course being the more goofier and lighthearted plot when compared to the plot of "My First Time Ever" which starts out goofy and light hearted but then gets more serious as the episode progresses. This is something that the original show did really well as the original show always fond a way to have serious moments happen in goofy plots and while here the plot for episode one gets more serious it did start out goofy and its something that does show you that if you have people that cared about the original show involved with the new version then you do end up getting gold, yet with the plot of episode this was a plot that you could imagine being the plot of a more lighthearted show and therefor paring it with the more serious first episode does make sense and while episodes 2's plot is a little bit more weaker then the plot of episode one it is still a good plot in it's own right with the plots of these episode being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in these episodes is one of this shows executive producers Zach Braff as Dr. John "J.D." Dorian and one of this shows executive producers Donald Faison as Dr. Chris Turk. Also starring in these episodes one of this shows executive producers Sarah Chalke as Dr. Elliot Reid , Ava Bunn as Dr. Sam Tosh , John C. McGinley as Dr. Cox , Judy Reyes as Carla Espinosa , Christa Miller as Jordan Sullivan , Rachel Bilson as Charlie , Jacob Dudman as Dr. Asher Green , Layla Mohammadi as Dr. Amara Hadi , Amanda Morrow as Dr. Dashana Trainor , Robert Maschio as The Todd , Michael James Scott as Nurse Dubois , K Callan as Lillian Blue , J.P. Manoux as Dr. Meeko , Vanessa Bayer as Sibby Wilson , Joey Fatone as himself , John Higgins as Grant Summers , Daniel Thrasher as Dustin , Keyla Monterroso Mejia as Nurse Mimi , Vanessa Bayer as Sibby Wilson , Flavor Flav as Father Time and Tamera Mowry as Dr. Steffie.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the acting that are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that are actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. The fact that we have some really good acting in both of these episode is something that is not all that shocking as even in the last season the acting in every single episode was really good and yet here it felt like that all of the actors just stepped up what was already a really impressive and heck Ava Bunn was so good last season that she's now been upped to a main actor in this season and yeah she knocks it out of the park in both of the episodes more comedic moments but also the more dramatic moments as well. Yet she is not the best actor in these two episodes as that honor goes to John C. McGinley as Dr. Cox as episode one of this season proved that he can still play this character really well something which he did prove last season as well with him even getting a heartbreaking scene in the first episode where it looks like Cox is about to cry and yet earlier on in the same scene he's there making jokes and making you laugh this is the true magic of him as an actor as like the show himself he does have you laughing one minuet and can have you in floods of tears the next with him still clearly loving playing this character as it is something that does show in the episodes with his natural charm and charisma really shining through in his performance. With the acting that's in these very episodes really being helped by the fact that the scripts for these episodes is just so good that all these episodes actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in these very episodes.

As was to be expected with Ava Bunn becoming a main actor this season both of these episodes do have alot of spotlight on the interns. This is something that dies make alot of sense as now one of the main characters is an intern herself but at the same time tho none of the interns that we liked from the last season are given the spotlight in these two episodes with it just being Tosh that gets the spotlight and while this is fine as again she is a main character this season it still would have been nice if some of the others got some attention as what little we saw of any of them last season they all have the potential to carry an episode maybe if the show did what the previous show did and have an episode where someone else is the main character with J.D. passing the mantle of narrator to one of the lesser used interns. What little we get from the rest of them in these two episodes it does look like that nothing has changed for them as they all act exactly how they did in the last season which was fine for that season as then you had nostalgia on your side and the legacy characters could carry the show but there does need to be more thought put into the interns and giving them m0re screen time as at the end of the day they are the ones that will carry the show forward if the fans like them and the fact that the fan favorite Tosh is now one of the main characters does show you that the makers of this show are more then willing to listen to the fans and give the spotlight to someone who wasn't apart of the original show and heck she even gets some laugh out loud funny scenes in both of these episodes but the rest of the interns don't really get anything and feel more like set dressing when alot of them should be getting pushed to the forefront alongside the legacy characters and the legacy cameos.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The first episode of this new season starts of something that I hope to god doesn't come true as it will be utterly heartbreaking if it does. That being the fact that they straight up hint at the fact that Dr. Cox is going to die by giving him this illness that the team are struggling to find a way to cure as his body just isn't responding to alot of the treatment and heck even in episode two there's a sequence where he gives alot of the characters some piece of advice to help them deal with there issues with the camera lingering on him just enough to make sure that we know that not everything is as it seems with him if this is the case and he is indeed going to die or be revealed to be dead at the end of the season then they have to him reunite with Brendan Fraser and if you've seen the original series you'll know why and if you haven't seen the original series then go and watch his episodes as they are heartbreaking to watch. It is something that would be fitting for both old and new fans alike as the old fans will get why Cox is now seeing Ben and the new fans will be left heartbroken because of what's going on on screen of course there is always a chance that he doesn't die and that he does get better but then if that was the case then why have him give the characters one last piece of advice and why have the camera linger on him and with this being Scrubs you know that there not going to have the character be OK or if they do it's going to be in the build up to having something tragic happen to them like maybe they reveal in episode 9 that he's OK only for him to take a turn for the worse at the end of that same episode and die during the tenth and final episode of the season with the last two episodes of the last season being very much focused on his character it would make sense for them to make Cox the focus of this seasons final two episodes if they are building up to his death.

To be frank here both of these first two episodes feel like the makers of this show are upping there game. As everything in both of these first two episodes feels like everything that they did in the first two episodes of the last season only now it's done better due to the fact that the makers of this show know what works and know how to make this version of the show this is something that does prove that people do still know how to make seasonal TV how do we know this because the first season of this show started and ended earlier this year there's no two or three year wait between seasons the makers of this show just got on with making with the show with the quality of the show not suffering if these two episodes are anything to go by. Yes there are some shows like for example House Of The Dragon or any effects heavy show that you can only make every few years but now we are getting comedies that are taking that long between seasons you shouldn't have to wait two or three years for a new season of a comedy show or a drama show as those by nature don't require alot of time to make and these two episodes are proof that you can still do a seasonal show and not have the quality suffer as there are scenes in both of these episodes that will have you crying one moment and then have you howling with laughter the next all because of the fact that they were made by people who not only know how to make shows every few months but how to put alot of thought and effort into each of them and how to make it so that you don't have to wait three years for the next season and yet we had to wait that long for the final season of Euphoria granted that was also due to it's main stars becoming house hold names but you still could have made that season a year after the second.

Out of the two episodes it does go without saying but the first episode is the more stronger episode due to the fact that it does have those more heartbreaking moments in it. This is not to say that "My Mentee" isn't a bad episode as its really not but when you compare the two episodes and watch them back to back the difference is night and day with even "My First Time In A While" bringing back another kind of legacy character that being J.D's scooter Sasha which was pretty fun whereas with episode whilst it is the more fun of the two episodes due to the fact that we get to see Ava Bunn being super fricking funny in that episode it is lacking alot of the meat that the first episode had with the second episode even making great use of Nurse Dubois by having him put on different voices just to get people to do what he wants which is a really clever idea and its one that could make for a really good running joke in this season if its done right. With episode one doing something that the original show might not have done and that's have Elliot openly and willingly tell Jordan off as Elliot does have a go at her for her stopping them doing there jobs and in turn stopping them from treating her husband Dr. Cox whilst Elliot was right for doing that as she was doing exactly that and this is something that Carla does point out to her Jordan in this case was also a scared patients wife and yes while Elliot was right for telling of her there was a time and a place and while this was the place it wasn't the time as neither person was in the right frame of mind as they both wanted the same thing and both of them were stressed out and the fact that Elliot does put a blanket over her at the end of the episode was a sweet moment between the two of them.

Now then episodes one and two of this show has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty one minuets and twenty nine seconds. Both of these episodes having the exact same running time is something that does make sense as both of the episodes have plots that don't really require alot of running time in order to tell there stories as they both tell stories that are very well contained within those twenty two minuets with every scene being about moving the plot forward with no scene in either episode feeling unneeded as while yes you do get scenes that are there to tell the fantasies of J.D. that's purely for comedic effects and with this being a comedy it does make sense that those scenes be in the episode with both episodes having more then enough plot there to really cover there respective running times. Heck both episodes even use there respective running times really wisely as they both do take the times to fully develop there respective plots as well as they could have done given there respective running times and while the opening scene with J.D. riding Sasha back to the hospital could have been trimmed to make way for more plot development it was still a good build up to a really good joke with both of the episodes putting alot of thought and effort into giving both episodes alot of plot development. The same thing is also true for the episodes character development as both episodes give alot of the characters a chance to grow and get character development be it something as simple as Tosh and Asher going public with there relationship or J.D. learning to give Grant a second chance as the person that he's going to mentor both of these are things that didn't need to be in there respective episodes and yet they were with the makers of this show giving alot of thought and effort into there respective characters character development but I really will admit that these episodes really do have some really good pacing to them tho.

So now then as this is a comedy that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's  actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in these very episodes was in all honesty really good. With both of the episodes having alot of laugh out loud funny moments in them all of which di feel true to either the characters are the tone and spirit of the show be it something simple like Dr. Dashana Trainor yelling hand to Amara whenever she's about to say something stupid with Amara always covering her mouth with her hand that is a really good and funny joke and is one that could very easily become a good running joke this season and heck the makers of the show could even have other characters say it to her just to keep it from being to stale. With the best joke in both of the episodes being when Elliot goes to Cox for some advice in episode 2 and he just says that he'll give it if he gets killed and when he doesn't get killed he just looks up at the sky asking why and when he give out more advice in the same scene he again looks up to the sky and asks if someone hates yes this is a dark joke given what might be coming but it is still a really funny joke and is one that Dr. Cox himself would make which is something that really does make it feel true to his character and while there is alot of really painfully funny jokes with Tosh in both episodes this one with Dr. Cox stood out due to the fact that it is a darkly funny joke and it is one that really does work with the rest of these episodes jokes being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Overall not only is this season of a to a really good start but if these first two episodes are anything to go by then we are in for one hell of an emotional ride with episode one being the better of the two just due to the Dr. Cox stuff but episode two is the more funnier of the two episodes in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. ow then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in both of these episodes in this very review and really does mean that episode one of this season earns itself a grand old score of a exactly a 7.5 out of 10 and episode two earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Popeye: I Yam What I Yam Review

When people think of comic book characters they usually think of the big hitters like for example Spider-Man or Superman. However there is one character that is actually older then Spider-Man AND Superman as the character in question is Popeye who made his first appearance in 1929 and yet he's been forgotten about for no good reason this is despite the fact that he had a hugely popular cartoon series in the thirties and a very popular live action movie in the eighties and some questionable cheaply made horror films that came out in the past few years with it being his second cartoon that i'm going to be talking to you all abut today and so then join me as I review the cartoon that wouldn't get made today with the question in question being called simply just "I Yam What I Yam" enjoy.

The plot of this cartoon is Popeye , Olive Oyl and Wimpy find themselves on a deserted Island and have to fend of a group of Indians that come to attack them. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's a actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty OK at best. To be frank here the cartoons plot isn't all that great as it's simple and while this is still a good thing there's also nothing all that much to this plot outside of the basic set up of the cartoon which to be fair given how long theatrical cartoon shorts they do kind of need to have a basic and simple plot to them to make them work and this is something that is also true for this cartoons plot. With the fact that it is this short and simple plot being something that does work to it's advantage as it allows for there to be more jokes and more action moments in the cartoon with of both of those taking precedence over the plot of the cartoon however tho this plot still could have been better as we don't get to find out why the three of them are sailing in the first place the cartoon literally opens up with all of three of them out sailing and while it's not a big deal to not include something like that it is something that would have made the cartoons plot feel more thought out and heck we don't even find out why the Indians are attacking them which does lead to another issue with the cartoon that will be getting talked about later on in this review with the plot of this cartoon also being really rather entertaining and as well as being really rather engaging as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Starring in this cartoon is Billy Costello as Popeye , Bonnie Poe as Olive Oyl and Charles Lawrence as Wimpy. It's not uncommon for theatrical cartoons to have only a short amount of actors in each cartoon as after all nine times out of ten there's not going to be that many speaking characters in the cartoon and to this cartoons credit it really doesn't need to have that many actors in it as right when the cartoon starts as does the plot and that is something that does mean that there's not going to be that many characters in the cartoon and heck even the fact that there's just three main characters is something that does mean that all three of this cartoons actors had to do alot of heavy lifting and make sure that there voices for there characters was spot on right from the word go. As while both Billy Costello and Bonnie Poe both appeared as there characters in the previous Popeye cartoon which was apart of the Betty Boop series this cartoon which is the first in the Popeye cartoon series meant that they could hit the ground running as they already knew what there voices sounded like as they had just done them one cartoon previously yet Charles Lawrence had to find his voice of Wimpy which is something that might explain why his character didn't have alot of dialog in the cartoon infact he only had one line of dialog in the whole cartoon as the makers of this cartoon wouldn't have known how the character was going to sound while they started production and to be fait his voice for the character is alright but it's nothing special, however tho the voices for both Popeye and Olive Oyl sound really good with there respective voice actors really getting there voices down perfect and while Billy Costello does give Popeye more of a gruff sounding voice something which would get toned down when Jack Mercer takes over the role just a few years after this cartoon the starting voice for the character is a really good one.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's a actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty OK at best. With the cartoons actors turning some really good performances with alot of them having voices that do suit there respective characters where the acting is let down at the very least from the actors point of view is the fact that the characters don't get much in the way of dialog and therefor the cartoons actors really can't get across just how good that they are as an actor with the cartoons having to do alot of the heavy lifting in this regard. With the best actor in the whole cartoon being Billy Costello as Popeye as he does manage to capture the spirit of the character whilst also being this reluctant hero type which is something that does fit his character perfectly with the only thing that doesn't quiet fit being the characters more gruff voice as the bones for the characters voice is there it just needed to be toned down a little bit but performance wise Billy Costello does do a really good job of setting up just how good each of Popeye's other voices actors need to be as he is the one that started it all with his performance in this cartoon being really good with him having this charm that really does come through in this very cartoon. With the acting that's in this very cartoon really being helped by the fact that this episodes script is just so good that all this cartoons actors have to do is just say the lines as they are written and a good performance will come out of them naturally which is something that really does help to raise the overall quality of the acting that's in this very cartoon.

Doing the animation for this cartoon is the legends and the really greats that were over at Fleischer Studios. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's a actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty really good. The fact that we have some really good animation in this cartoon is of no surprise as outside of Warner Bros and Disney Fleischer Studios was known for having really high quality animation in all of there cartoon shorts with this particular cartoon of course being of no exception to this. As despite the backgrounds not being that detailed this is something that does make alot of sense as the characters are on a deserted island therefor of course there's not going to be that much detail in the backgrounds but when there is detail in the background it is something that does stand out all the mor with the makers of this cartoon putting alot of thought and effort into this cartoons animation with the things that is annoying about this cartoons animation being the fact that it has the characters bending there knees alot of the time for no reason this is somethin that is seen in alot of cartoons from around this period and it's always annoying to see as it makes no sense all of the time, there are alot of places where the animation does shine like in the characters movements as given the fact that this is a theatrical cartoon it mean that the makers of the cartoon could have a bigger budget and they put that to good use by giving the characters these really fluid movements that help to make the characters feel more real with the animation even helping to sell you on both the comedy and the action in the cartoon as it makes each hit feel more impactful and each joke being animated as well as it possibly could have been at the same time.

There's no other way around it this cartoon would not be made today due to how it portrays Native Americans or Indians. As while yes it was fairly common practice back in the thirties to portray them as savages as we as a world didn't know much better back then but here due to the fact that they do attack Popeye and his friends for reason even tho technically it's Popeye and his friends that are trespassing on there lands the Indians are seen as being the bad guys of the cartoon with them all wearing the clothes that you typically think of when you think of Native American Indians and acting like savages and heck when Popeye knocks out the head Indian he turns in Mahatma Gandhi again looking back at when this was made which is something that we have to do when discussing controversial moments in classic media this cartoon doesn't come of as being that bad but when you look at through the eyes of today it does come off as being really bad. This is why the cartoon wouldn't get made today or if it did it would be blasted all over social media within a week of it coming out and while this cartoon isn't as racist or as controversial as other cartoons are it is something that is certainly up there but in this cartoons defense this is something that could be chalked up to the ignorance of the time that it was made as back then we didn't know much about Native American Indians we just knew what we saw on TV and in films and that was it whereas today of course we do know alot more this is not to say that this isn't controversial content still being made heck an episode of Lanterns portrayed white people in a racist way just to make one of their heroes look good but we are learning and while this cartoon was just a victim of circumstance it is something that should be shown in schools so that future generations can learn from it.

This was the first Popeye cartoon not to have Bluto in it at all and well the cartoon really did miss him as he would have made for a great villain to have in this cartoon. As it could have been him that told the Indians that Popeye and Wimpy are bad people all the while he's there trying to get Olive which is something that would have been very true to his character how he would have gotten onto the island in the first place is another story tho as there is no way that you could have gotten him on to the island without him having to have sailed with the rest of the main cast which would then beg the question of why he's turning on them which does mean that not having him in the cartoon is something that does also work in the cartoons favor as you don't really miss him as a character. It would have been nice seeing Bluto in this cartoon as then you could have the Indians and Popeye team up to take on Bluto and end the cartoon as friends yes it wouldn't remove the racial stereotypes seen in the cartoon but it is something that would make them less damaging as then it would be painted as Bluto being the racist and the one who's in the wrong and not Popeye and heck it is something that would have made the cartoon alot more fun to watch as then we get to have that moment where both Popeye and the Indians realise what's going on and have to go and stop Bluto before he gets away with Olive, however like was said it wouldn't remove the racial stereotypes seen in the episode but it is something that would make them alot more easier to watch as its easier to buy Bluto as being this bully who is doing everything that he can to get rid of Popeye then it is to buy Popeye willingly trespassing on someone else's land as that's not in his character with the whole situation being one that could have been stopped if both Popeye and the Indians stopped and talked to each other.

These Popeye cartoons are meant to be action comedies and there is a good dose of that here altho it does feel more like tat the cartoon does favor more being an action cartoon then it does being a comedy cartoon. This is not to say that there isn't comedy in the cartoon as there is but there's more action in the cartoon but when the cartoon does get to some comedy it is something that really works as the film does gave alot of really funny bits in it like the fact that when it starts to thunder Popeye just straight up grabs the bold of lighting and throws it into the sea scaring of the rest of the clouds and thus clearing up the weather and stopping it from raining it's a simple joke but it's also one that works really well and that's also true for alot of the cartoons other jokes as they are all simple and nine times out of ten they all work. With a great example of this being not long after the thunder joke as the friends boat starts to sink and yet the characters just keep on as they were even when there on dry land with Olive still rowing as if she was rowing the boat with the only thing that would have made that joke be even more funnier was if in the next shot we saw rowing into frame as that is something that would have made the joke be even more over the top and even more funnier then what it already but to be fair ending the joke with them rowing onto the beach works just as well. This is something that does prove that you don't need to have a complicated set up in order for the joke to work as sometimes having a more simple and yes basic set up is all you need with all of the jokes in this cartoon being a good example of this as they all have very basic and simple premises and they all work due to how simple and basic the set up of the joke is.

Now then this cartoon has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly six minuets and four seconds. This is pretty much the bog standard running time for these Popeye cartoons as alot of them wound last between six or seven minuets total and to be fair to this cartoon it really doesn't need to be that long as outside of the basic premise there's not alot there that really requires the cartoon be alot longer then that but even so it still would have been nice if this cartoon was a few minuets longer as it does feel like the cartoon is rushing along at break neck pace to reach the next plot point instead of just taking its time and getting there at a more thought out pace with the cartoon having more then enough plot there to cover that amount of running time in the first place. With the cartoon not even using its running time all that wisely as the cartoon doesn't take the time to fully develop its plot granted this is something that would have been hard to do with its current running time but this is where having a longer running time would have helped as it would have allowed for the makers of this cartoon to have scene where they can add things to the plot like showing us why Popeye , Olive and Wimpy are out sailing in the first place and showing us why the Indians are attacking the group these are small things yes but they are small things that make the cartoons plot feel more developed with the makers of this cartoon putting more thought and effort into the cartoons action then they did in giving the cartoon some plot development. This is also true for the cartoons character development as while you don't go into a theatrical cartoon expecting the characters to grow or change it is still something that would have been nice to see even if it was just for this one cartoon and its something that could have happened if the cartoon was longer as then there could have been scenes where the characters do grow as people but the makers of this cartoon where more focused on making Indians look bad that they didn't give the cartoons characters any kind of character development but I really will admit this very cartoon really does have some really good pacing to it tho

So now then as this is an action cartoon that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very cartoon was in all honesty not that bad that. This cartoons action was quite frankly alot more better then what it really should have been as given the desert island setting it would have been impossible for the cartoons action to be as good as it is and whilst yes the action in this cartoon isn't that good it is still alot of fun to watch as we do get to see Popeye and Olive Oyl beating up alot of Indians and heck Olive holds her own against several of them and yet she still screams for Popeye to come and save her even tho she's doing just fine. With the best action in the whole cartoon being the third act fight between Popeye and the Indians as we see Popeye having to outwit several groups of Indians not only to get some food to his friends but to then returns to them when they need his help with him even getting beaten up by alot of them with it only being when he eats his trusty can of Spinach that he ends up beating them up with this action scene just being fun to watch as not only do we get some really fun and over the top cartoon violence but but we also get some nice comedic moments in there as well like Popeye bending all of there arrows so that they won't hit the ducks that he wants and instead hits all of them on the rear end and yet when the cartoon does show us violence it is alot of fun to even if it's something as simple as Popeye knocking down an entire line up of Indians with one punch with the rest of the cartoons action being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall this is cartoon that whilst it is fun to watch is also one that due to how Indians are portrayed is also incredibly dated and while this is was always going to be the case it is something that people need to be weary of when checking out this cartoon but it is still a solid cartoon to watch in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and well as all of the bad things that are in this very cartoon in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very cartoon really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . Uk and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very cartoon that I used in this very post being the really great Google Images really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very cartoon with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Google Images really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.

Doctor Who: The Gunfighters Review

Doctor Who in it's third year was having just as many downs as it was ups as for ever good Dalek serial that came out there was sadly two or three bad ones that came out. Sadly the bad ones usually came at the same time as each other meaning you would get weeks of bad Doctor Who serials with the episode that i'm going to be talking to you all about today being one of the bad ones as yeah this serial isn't that good and so then join me as I review the episode both William Hartnell and Peter Purves hated making with the serial in question being called simply just "The Gunfighters" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is The Doctor , Steven and Dodo arrive in the old west town of Tombstone and have to try and stop a family of gang members from causing an all out war in the town. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty OK at best. With the first episode by far being the weakest interms of story and the rest of the episodes being very light on plot that it was hard too work out just what the main plot of the serial was even meant to be alot of the time as the episode didn't focus on any plot. This is something that this episodes writer Donald Cotton whom had previously written The Myth Makers for the show really should have fixed as there's nothing to this episodes plot there's no stakes there's no drama and there's no focus what we are essentially seeing is the characters go from one of the episodes same three later four or five sets over and over again and while that's great for the first episode as then you could make the point that the story is being setting up but all of the serials episodes are like that with the plot itself feeling like an after thought to anything else in the episode yet if he had put more focus on plot and less focus on spectacle then we could have had a really good story as there are the bones of a good story in there we just needed a better writer and maybe a better director to help to bring it out as the stuff with The Doctor trying to convince the Clanton's not to go to war with the Earp's is good stuff and yet the episode doesn't focus on that with the plot of this episode not really being really rather entertaining and as well as not really being really rather engaging either in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 

Starring in this episode is William Hartnell as The Doctor , Peter Purves as Steven Taylor and Jackie Lane as Dodo Chaplet. Also starring in this episode is William Hurndell as Ike Clanton , Maurice Good as Phineas Clanton , David Cole as Billy Clanton , Sheena Marshe as Kate , Thunderbirds star Shane Rimmer as Seth Harper , Dalek voice actor and Thunderbirds star David Graham as Charlie , John Alderson as Wyatt Earp , Anthony Jacobs as Doc Holliday , Richard Beale as Bat Masterson , Reed De Rouen as Pa Clanton , Laurence Payne as Johnny Ringo , Martyn Huntley as Warren Earp and Victor Carin as Virgil Earp.

Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. To be frank this episodes acting is one of the better things about the episode as everybody in the episode does give us a really good performance with some of them like for example Jackie Lane giving us a really good American accent something which could have been easy to do as she would have had to also turn in a good performance at the same time and while she does give us a good American accent there are some actors in this episode who don't give us that but still give us a good performance on top of that. With the best actor in  this episode being William Hartnell as he does give us a performance that not only feels true to who his character is as The Doctor doesn't want to mess with time in this episode he just wants to get his tooth checked out and be on his way and yet when the character does get dragged into this situation William Hartnell does deliver a good performance with him getting across just how important it is to him that he doesn't fire a single bullet just with a look and while William Hartnell not only didn't like making the episode he also doesn't do an American accent with him being professional enough to get through the production of the episode and remind us of why he is this good actor by giving us a performance that s far better then what an episode like this one really did deserve with him having alot of charm that really does come through in his performance. With the acting that's in this very episode not really being helped by the fact that this episodes script is just so bad as it gives none of this episodes actors anything to work with interms of what it is that that there actual characters personalities are even meant to be in the first place which is something that really does help to harm the overall quality of the acting that's in  this very episode. 

For alot of modern Doctor Who fans they will think that The Doctor's hatred of guns started with The Thirteenth Doctor when it fact this episode is the earliest one one this far that has The Doctor mention that he hates guns. This is something that does work well for any version of The Doctor as he or she would then be forced into finding a creative none harmful out of a situation with the fact that this version of the characters gets given different guns at different points in the episode being something that does utterly disgust him even tho when it's by Steven it's for his own protection and yet he never once uses it with the only time he raises his gun being in the bar at the start of the second episode and even then someone else has to raise his arm for him and tell him what to say next. The fact that The Doctor hating guns goes back this far when it very easily could have been a modern thing is something that does make the character on the whole feel more thought out as by all rights whom ever creates any version of the character could if they so chose have that aspect of his character be removed and yet they kept it and it is something that does put The Doctor at odds with alot of the characters in this episode as of course he's landed in the old west where every one had a gun and with him telling people that he won't use is something that does make alot of them confused as they don't know any better all they know is how to shoot with even several character early on in the episode bragging about killing people by shooting them and yet any version of The Doctor is able to do more damage then they are just by using his words and while that wouldn't gave helped him in this situation the fact that the makers of this episode even toyed with the idea of having him with a gun is something that does tell you right away that this is episode is alot more different and alot more darker then what the other episodes of this show are.

There was one thing above the dull plot of the episode and the lack of a plot in the first episode and that's the fact that they had the song "The Ballad Of The Last Chance Saloon" play seemingly every five minuets during the entire episode. Just to be clear here both the song and the singing by Lynda Baron was fine for what it is but it's the fact that they kept on stopping the story just to have bits of this song play that started to drive me mad this wouldn't be a bad thing if the song was being used to advance the plot of the episode but its not rather it's being used to recap things that we've just seen happen on screen which makes it a pointless song and fair enough this song was used to make the episode feel more like a true western but surely just having the song play once at the start of the episode and then once again at the end of the episode would have accomplished the same feet. There really was no need to keep on bringing back the song at several points in the episode if it's just recapping something that we've just seen as all that does is stop the plot of the episode for no good reason however tho to be fair the song itself is a fairly decent song that does do a good enough job of setting up the tone for the episode when it's played in episode one and even when Steven sings it in that same episode it still does work with even the main singing by Lynda Baron being really good as she does have a good singing voice on her that does suit the type of song that this is which makes it all the more shocking that Sydney Newman according to David Brunt's Doctor Who the Production Dairies: The William Hartnell years hated her performance in the episode yet he was seemingly fine with everything else in the episode which is odd as her singing isn't that bad for what kind of song that this is meant to be.

As Doctor Who's first western this episode is fairly decent in that regard as it does try to capture the tone and spirit of western films. However tho in doing so it does forget to be a Doctor Who episode as outside if seeing the TARDIS at the start and end of the episode there is nothing in this episode that makes it feel like a Doctor Who episode with it feeling like that the makers of this episode were somehow ashamed of the show and wanted to use the episode to distance themselves from the show this is something that might be why both Peter Purves and William Hartnell hated working on the episode as they are both were and still are strong advocates for everything that the show was and still could be and yet here it does feel like that this episodes director Rex Tucker whom also helped to develop the show for a few months back in 1963 felt like that the show was beneath him. With there being noting in this episode that makes it feel like a true Doctor Who episode and while yes the same thing could also be said for alot of the historical episodes that the show did back in those days those other episodes also didn't feel ashamed of being an episode of this show whereas this episode feels like it would rather be the episode of any other show with this being something that doesn't work for this show as no one is watching this episode to see Wyatt Earp for example there coming to see The Doctor and his friends this is not to say that a story like this could work as A Town Called Mercy proved that a western themed Doctor Who episode can work but this episode needed to not be afraid of being a Doctor Who episode with this being something that does hold the episode back and stops it from being as good as it had the potential to be.

This episode is perhaps the most dark episode of early Doctor Who as not only do we have the companions in this case Steven almost getting hanged. We also have Dodo almost getting shot and quite literally alot of the episodes main characters getting shot and killed something which we see ON SCREEN alot of the time and even when we don't see them getting shot on screen the episode lingers on there bodies and in the case of Charlie even shows his body for a good few minuets before The Doctor and Steven even realise that he's dead holy heck is that a dark thing to be in a kids show and yet the episode doesn't shy away from it which to be frank is something that the episode should be praised for doing as the old west was a violent place and a violent time for both men and women alike and therefor showing characters that we like getting killed of does feel true to the time period. However even tho we don't get to see any blood in the episode this is something that might be seen as being a bit to dark for its good heck the episode even shows use Doc Holiday killing someone in cold blood just for there trey of food and it's played off as a joke this is something that if it was shown on BBC today would get alot of complaints from parents groups and odds are that it did in 1966 as while villains like the Daleks for example do get up to some pretty dark things they are purely creatures of fantasy whereas here alot of the side characters barring Seth Harper , Kate and Charlie were all real people with the fight at the end of the episode being a real thing that did happen and did result in the deaths of people therefore this is something that does need to be treated differently, due to the fact that people can except ruthless killing machines in a kids TV show as there not real but these side characters were real and therefor there should have been some effort put into toning down how dark that this episode is in the first place.

Now then whilst I cannot for the absolutely life of remember what this episodes grand total running time even was I do know that this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of roughly one hour and thirty minuets. Look to be frank this episode really didn't need to be this long and nor did it need to be four episodes long either as all the first episode is is just The Doctor going to the dentist and that's it heck even the big cliff hanger ending is just him walking to the saloon where Steven and Dodo are being forced to sing "The Ballad Of The Last Chance Saloon" which is just such a huge none ending whereas if this episode was say three or two episodes long then it would have been all the more better with the episode having the right amount of plot there to really cover that amount of running time in the first place. With the episode not even using its running time all that wisely as the episode doesn't take the time the fully develop its plot due to the fact that the episode doesn't spend alot of time even focusing on its plot with this being something that does make it harder to recognise what the plot is even meant to be and yet if the episode was say two episodes long for example then it would force the makers of this episode to focus more on the plot which in turn would make the episode be all the more better with the makers of this episode being more focused on shoving a beautiful but pointless song down our throats then they are in giving the episodes plot some plot development. This is something that does hinder the episodes character development as well as none of the episodes characters get any kind of development which OK fair enough for The Doctor , Steven and Dodo isn't a big deal as they have the other episodes to get there character development but all of the episodes side characters it is a big deal as none of them get any kind of character development and they are are the ones that needed it the most with the makers of this episode caring more about showing The Doctor getting his tooth looked at then they did giving the episodes characters character development but I really will admit that this very episode really does have some really good pacing to it tho. 

So now then as this an action show that really does mean that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really good. Much like with the episodes acting this episodes action was the best thing about the episode as it did give us a chance to see what the makers of show could do when there given a decent filming location as with this episode there was alot of filming done at Ealing Television Film Studios which was a frequent filming base for classic Doctor Who even going back the the first episode of the show as its a proper film studio and it is something that does show in this episode as it makes the episodes action scenes look all the more cinematic as it was clearly filmed on film and not on tape like it is for all of the interior shots which were done on tape. With the best action scene in the whole episode being the action scene at the end of the final episode as we get to see all of the villains go up against three of the heroes minus the shows main characters and engage in a massive shoot out with even Dodo getting in on the action to try and help Doc Holiday when Johnny Ringo tries to sneak up behind him and shoot him in the back this was a really good action scene and it's odd that the episodes director rex Tucker hated how the shows producer Innes Lloyd had that scene edited so much so that he had his name removed from the final credits of the episode and yet the editing on that scene was actually really good with the rest of the episodes action being just as good as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Overall wow was this episode a big heap of nothing as while the idea of the TARDIS crew visiting the old west is a good idea here in this episode it just felt wasted as the makers of this episode don't do anything new or fun with the concept which makes the whole episode feel undercooked and underbaked in my freaking opinions anyways / at least/ Now then i've talked about all of the good and a swell as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very episode in this very review and as such that really does mean that this very episode really does earn itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images rat I personally used in this very review from Amazon . Co . Uk and Tardis . Wiki. With my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this very episode that I used in this very post being the really great Tardis . Wiki really simply just due to the fact that really alot of if not really all of the images that are all really from this very episode with alot of them really being really better quality then what you'd really think of and all of the images are really of course up and really on Tardis . Wiki really are also really all fairly high in quality and as well as them all being really fairly freaking high in definition.
