Doctor Who: Revenge Of The Cybermen Review

 


Doctor Who fans it's finally done after spending a little a month watching and reviewing episodes from the first Tom Baker season of Doctor Who i've reached the final ever episode of this first Tom Baker season of Doctor Who. However the hard work doesn't stop there as in a few short weeks i'll be doing the exact same thing but for season 19 of the show and so then join as I review the episode that wasn't actually intended to be the final episode of this season with the episode in question being called simply just "Revenge Of The Cybermen" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is The Doctor , Harry and Sarah Jane all return to the Nerva Beacon where they discover that things are quite different from what they remember them being. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of 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 is in all honesty not that bad with this episodes plotline being a very satisfactory conclusion to the plotline that was started all the way back up in episode two of this season in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Tom Baker as The Doctor , Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith and Ian Marter as Harry Sullivan. Also starring in this episode is Ronald Leigh-Hunt as Commander Stevenson , Jeremy Wilkin as Kellman , William Marlowe as Lester , Alec Wallis as Warner , Michael Wisher as Magrik , Kevin Stoney as Tyrum , David Collings as Vorus , Brian Grellis as Sheprah , Christopher Robbie as The Cyber Leader and Melville Jones as A Cyberman.

Now then in terms 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 acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty. Not that bad which has really been the case for every episode in this season and it's especially true for actor Tom Baker whom we've seen really grow into his role as The Doctor over the course of this first season of his in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


So now then this episode features the return of the The Cybermen whom were all last seen in the 1968 Second Doctor serial called The Invasion. As well as being there return this one would also be the final Cybermen serial until season nineteens Earthshock and I have to say that I hope they get better costumes in that episode because of the fact that the costumes that they get to wear in this episode from the neck down look completely and totally freaking horrible in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Now then I was really not prepared for this episode to be as dark as it gets since you straight see a character getting crushed to death by a bunch of falling rocks and you straight up see a bunch of dead bodies just lieing around a corridor. That's some pretty dark stuff right there and it's certainly something that you'd expect t see in Doctor Who today let alone Doctor Who when it was in it's prime in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then I have to admit that I really did like the character of Kellman since that character was in all honesty convincing in the role that he played in this episodes plotline. Which i'm trying my best not to spoil because of the fact that it is such a good little plot twist that it's best you guys know absolutely nothing about what actually happens to this character but let's just say that it more then makes up for one dimensional the character is written in the very early parts of this storyline tho in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Now then this episode is also the second to last episode to feature the character of Harry Sullivan and since season thirteen isn't coming out anytime soon I think now is the absolutely right time and place to talk about him as a character. Since in all honesty Harry both the weakest and in some cases the best of any given episode since he's brave when the situation calls for it and he makes for great auidence character however with all of that being said tho as in the case of this episode as well many of this seasons episodes give Harry absolutely nothing to do and as such he feels alot more like a freaking third wheel and not an actual part of this seasons TARDIS team in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.

Now then this episode is actually four episodes long with each of those episodes lasting around twenty five minuets each which means that roughly this episode has combined grand total running time of roughly one hour and thirty six minuets in length. Which if true is a bit of short running time for a story featuring the Cybermen to last since you could very easily have gotten six or even eight whole episodes out of this one storyline alone and that wold have allowed things to have moved at a more naturel and organic pace instead of feeling rushed in alot of arts and or even places in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then just like with last weeks breathtaking Dalek episode there was also quite alot of action to be found in this weeks episode as well and that there for means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and 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 was in all honesty not that bad. Yes it's not as good as the action that we got to see in other episodes but what really elevated the action in this episode for me at least was the breathtaking and heart pounding final action set piece which just phenomenal to watch in my freaking opinions anyways / at least


Overall while I am glad to have finally finished this season with this fantastic final episode of this very season I will be sad to this season go as for the most it was a very good with alot of very good stories being told within it in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 out of 10 from with this whole very season earning itself a grand old score of exactly a 9.5 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 well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page and Amazon . Co .Uk. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

Adventures Of The Gummi Bears "A New Beginning" Review

 


Disney fans whenever we talk about all of the many animations that Disney as a company has produced or even had a hand in producing there's always one TV show that gets forgotten about and that's the show that I want to talk to you all about today. So then join me as I review the very first episode of the show that was high adventure beyond compare with the episode in question being called simply just "A New Beginning" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is a young knight's page called Cavin is attacked by a group of ogre's whom are under the commend of the evil Duke Igthorn and so then it's up to Cavin and group of mysterious creatures to stop the evil Duke from bombing the Kings castle and taking the thrones all for himself. Now then in terms 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 as it gives you a very good example of what this show is going to be like which is what good plotline should really freaking do in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Starring in this episode is the late and the most certainly great June Foray as Grammi Gummi and Christian Jacobs as Cavin. Also starring in this episode is Katie Leigh as Sunni Gummi , Lorenzo Music as Tummi Gummi , Noelle North as Cubbi Gummi and Princess Calla , Will Ryan as Unwin and as The Ogres , Michael Rye as Duke Igthorn and as King Gregor , Bill Scott as Gruffi Gummi , Toadwart and as Sir Tuxford and Paul Winchell as Zummi Gummi.

Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this 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 is in all honesty not that bad. Which given that this show and thus this episode voice acting royalty isn't that entirely surprising in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Doing the animation for this episode is either TMS Entertainment , Big Star Enterprise , Guimaraes Productions , Tama Production or even quite possibly Walt Disney Animation Japan. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation 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 animation that'sd actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad. Heck i'd even go as far as to say that the animation that we actually got to see in this episode was the actual best of this actual episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this show was one of if not the first show to really make the The Disney Afternoon programming block what it well and truly is. Since this show has alot of the heart and more importantly alot of the humour that we all think of when we think of The Disney Afternoon programming block and while alot of the humour that's in this show isn't in this first episode it doesn't take away from the fact that it's present in this very freaking show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then when I say that this show and thus this episode is sickly sweet I really do mean it because this is the show that you think of when you think of sickly sweet Disney shows. Since everything that's in this very first episode is sickly sweet that you better go and get your self a dentist appointment after watching this very first episode because this episode is that sickly sweet in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this episode is as corny and as cheesy as you'd expect from a show about Gummi Bears and you know what I freaking loved it for being exactly that. Since when you think of a ids animated TV show about Gummi Bears you don't think of something like Regular Show or even Tiny Toon Adventures no you instead think of something that's going to entertain you for twenty two minuets and that's and that's exactly what this very first gives you in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.

So now then has / had a grand total exact running time of exactly twenty three minuets and eleven seconds. Which is in all honesty the exact perfect time for an episode like this one to last just because of the fact that this episodes job is just to entertain you for twenty three minuets and nothing more then that and on top of all of that this episode really doesn't have enough there in terms if either plot and or even character in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then I personally would struggle to call this show either an action show or perhaps even a comedy show. This is simply because there really isn't that much actual action going on in this episode and there really isn't that much comedy going on in this episode either which is weird because this is Disney everything kids TV show they do is a comedy and so it's weird to me at least that this show isn't technically a comedy TV show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this was a rather enjoyable first episode with this shows opening theme song still being rather catchy as all heck but tho with all of that being said I dont really know if I can recommend this show or this episode to absolutely anybody just simply because Disney TV animation has made some freaking leaps and bounds in the decades since this episodes first airing and watching this episode might seem like a huge step backwards to alot of people in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 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 the official Disney fandom wiki page and also from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page simply because the official Disney fandom wiki page actually has images from this film up on the official Disney fandom wiki page and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on the official Disney fandom wiki page were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987 Animated Series "Return Of The Shredder" Review

 


TMNT fans the 1987 TMNT animated series is perhaps the most influential piece OF Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles media. As it's influences are still being felt to this very day and as such I thought that it was about right that I now took the time to take another look at yet another classic episode from this show and so then TMNT fans join me as I review the episode that has quite alot of animation errors with the episode in question being called simply just "Return Of The Shredder" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is The Shredder returns to Earth after being sucked into Dimension X and all the meanwhile the turtles have to find out whom is making the public believe that they are infact villains before it's far to freaking late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot of this episode was in all honesty not that bad since it was just as freaking cheesy and as corny as you'd want an episode of this show to be like in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Cam Clarke as Leonardo and Rocksteady , Barry Gordon as Donatello and Bebop and Townsend Coleman as Michelangelo. Also starring in this episode is Rob Paulsen as Raphael , Peter Renaday as Splinter and Vernon Fenwick , Renae Jacobs as April O'Neil , Pat Fraley as Burne Thompson , Krang and Baxter Stockman , Peter Cullen as Smash , James Avery as Shredder and Jennifer Darling as Irma and Tiffany.

Now then in terms 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. Which shouldn't really shouldn't come as an absolute surprise to absolutely anybody whatsoever as the acting that's in this very show / series has always been really freaking good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Doing the animation for this show is of course A-1 Productions whom are perhaps best known for there animation on the anime Fairy Tail. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty not that bad however this episode does indeed feature quite alot of animation did bring the overall quality of the animation in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Now then this episode also sees the introduction of April's friend and colleague Irma and well this episode presents a huge issue with the writing of Irma. Since she's written as somebody whom only thinks about getting married to a man and that's it. Which might have been passable in 1987 but it's a piece of writing that really hasn't aged all of that very freaking well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then for me what would have made this episode seem like a perfect episode of this very freaking show was if this episode had been funnier. Since when you think of this show you think of it being funny and yet that's the one thing that's missing from this show since there are truly laughing out loud this is despite of the fact that there plenty of good set ups for some actual jokes in this episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Now then there is one thing that I really did laugh out loud at and that's the fact that Krang only sent Shredder back to Earth simply because of the fact that Shredder was getting on Krangs. Just that one idea alone is just so freaking funny to me just because it's totally something that I can see this version of The Shredder doing and that alone makes that one simple idea very freaking funny to me in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly twenty two minuets and thirteen seconds. Which is in all honesty more then enough time in which you really do need to tell the exact same freaking story as this freaking episode however tho with all of that being said I would have liked it if this episode was just a tad bit longer tho just because this episode storyline is that damn good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then since this show is an action show after all that means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and 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 was in all honesty not that freaking bad. Since it was just as wonderfully over the top and thus kid friendly as you'd expect to see in this very freaking show in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this was a rather solid episode of this show but at the same time it's quite clearly not this show at it's absolutely best since it's quite clear to me at least that this show was still trying to find its feet with this episode in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and as such that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 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 the official Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page simply because the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page actually has images from this film up on the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition.

Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island Film Review

 


Scooby-Doo is a franchise that has entertained millions if not possibly even billions of people around the globe during the franchises over fifty year existence. However there is one Scooby-Doo film that alot claim to be the absolutely best one of the whole lot of them and well then it's that exact same film that i'm going to be taking a look at today and so then join me as I review the film that made the monsters real with the with the film in question being called simply just "Scooby-Doo On Zombie Island" enjoy.

The plot of this film is after going their separate ways due to all the monsters being either just men in suits or robots The Mystery Inc gang reunites for a segment on Daphne's new show all about monsters and while searching for actual real monsters they come across something that has more bite to it then what would have liked. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / resented to us in this very film in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty really freaking good with this films main plotline holding up really freaking well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Starring in this film is Scott Innes as Scooby-Doo , Billy West as Shaggy Rogers and Mary Kay Bergman as Daphne Blake. Also starring in this film is Frank Welker as Fred Jones , Simone Lenoir's Cats , An Owl and A Zombie , B. J. Ward as Velma Dinkley , Adrienne Barbeau as Simone Lenoir , Tara Strong as Lena Dupree , Cam Clarke as Detective Beau Neville , Jim Cummings as Jacques , Morgan Moonscar and A Plantationer , Mark Hamill as Snakebite Scruggs And The Airport manager , Jennifer Leigh Warren as Chris and Ed Gilbert as Mr. Beeman.

Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film 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 film was in all honesty really freaking good. I would however like to admit that the voice that B.J. Ward uses Velma just isn't the right voice at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



Doing the animation for this film is Mook DLE whom would also do the animation for the next four scooby-Doo films. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film 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 film was in a word fantastic since the animation that we got to see to see in this film was in all honesty that i've seen in absolutely any Scooby-Doo piece of media in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


So now then this is the first every Scooby Doo direct to video film where the monsters that the mystery inc gang are chasing are actually real. Which I think is a really freaking good idea since it forces our characters to now to face facts that not every creature that there going to face is going to be just a man in mask which in all honesty makes this film seem all the more scarier then what it actually is in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then another brave move that the makers of this film made is the fact that they made his film feel alot more grown up and scary. This is done due to the fact that all of the characters now have jobs and the film feels more scary simply due to the fact that it creates tension and this is something that even the best most modern Scooby Doo just don't do and I have no idea why because kids love to be scared and scaring them in a kid friendly would be a very good thing to have in your product in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then there was no way in heck that I could do a review of this film not talk about the song Terror Time. This is rather simply because that song is awesome and pretty amazing and it's a song that suits this film pretty freaking well since it's a dark and very atmospheric song however tho the same thing cannot be said for the cover of the classic Scooby Doo Where Are You theme song which just feels like a generic pop song and nothing more then that in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.

Now then this film had / has a exactly grand total running time of exactly one hour and sixteen minuets and thirty nine seconds. Which for a story that's this epic really is a short amount of time to really do this story any kind of justice heck you very easily could have gotten a a very good and solid two and a half hour movie out of this ne story alone because of the fact that this storyline is that freaking good and epic  in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now then since this film is a comedy film after all that means that I absolutely have to talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and 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 film was in all honesty just about OK at best. Since there are some genuinely funny jokes in this film like Scooby Doo pretty much not knowing that he's dog is a pretty running joke in this film but then you also get jokes that are quite clearly aimed at the kid audience which to me at least just clashes with this films more freaking adult and rather freaking tone in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least. 


Overall while I cannot say that this is the best Scooby Doo animated film ever I can say that this film is quite one of the best Scooby Doo films ever made and it's a film that really does deserve all of the praise that it gets in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and that means that this very film erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 7.5 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 the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images from this film being the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page simply because the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page actually has images from this film up on the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page and plus pretty much much all of the images that I personally found on the official Scooby Doo fandom wiki page were all fairly high quality and as well as being as fairly high definition.

WWE Elimination Chamber 2022 PPV Review

 


WWE fans it's been a long time since I last reviewed a new WWE show and well as look would have it they have just released a new PPV. I will very much admit that i've been watching the shows but I have been keeping up with that's been going in the world of the The WWE and so then I say that you should all join me as I review the final PPV on the road to Wrestlemania with the PPV in question being called simply just "Elimination Chamber" enjoy.

Like I just said i've been keeping up with the WWE product and so I do know all of the storylines going into this show. Alot the main storylines going into this show are advanced in a nice but somewhat predictable way which does make me wonder if the imagination has gone from the WWE creative team which shouldn't be the case this close to Wrestlemania at all in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


The set for this show is in all honesty really impressive since it's just one big and curved screen that's surrounded by several smaller screens. What really makes this set stand out for me personally is the fact that there's no dead space at all which is a huge thing for me since it shows that every single square inch is being used for something and it really does add up to creating a really impressive PPV set in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

Now then to me at least this set really does look like something that you'd expect to see at Wrestlemania. Since that's how impressive this shows main set is to me personally and this really does give me hope that the WWE starts to use custom sets again because we know that they have the money and now we know that they can do when they really want to put together a good PPV set in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


So now the I really do feel that the Naomi and Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair and Sonia Deville match should have been put up on the preshow for this particular PPV event. Since the Naomi and Sonia Deville feud means nothing to nobody in the long run and so having a match involving that feud taking the place of a possibly much better on the main card just doesn't make that much sense to me personally and is just a bad move to make in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then what I really hated about this show is the fact that for some strange and rather unknown reason they spent several adverts kissing Jeddah's backside. This was something that really wasn't needed as they don't do it for literally any other town , city or country that they visit and so then it makes no sense at all whatsoever that they would do it for this show tho in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then i'm not one to post spoilers or even to talk or to mention spoilers but clearly Michael Cole is since at the end of the first match he spoils whom is going to win the Mens Elimination Chamber match. I get it that it was a mistake but it's a mistake that also spoils the ending of the main event and so I really do feel that the WWE should make sure that there commentators don't spoil what's going to happen in your shows main event in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then the women's matches were a very hit and miss affair for me personally since every good women's match it was very quickly by a bad one. With perhaps the worst women's being the Women's Elimination Chamber match simply because it was very stop and start match with alot of the women just pausing and waiting for there next big spot to happen and that really take me out of the match and it really does effect quality of the actual match itself in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this PPV has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly two hours and fifty minuets and eighteen seconds. Which i'm not going to lie here is a good amount of time for a PPV to last and that really did help with the general pacing of the show itself as well which was something that I wasn't expecting to be the case and it's something that i'm glad was the case since most WWE PPV'S feel alot longer then what they actually are in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then since this is a wrestling PPV after all that means that I have to actually talk about the actual wrestling that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show and well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual wrestling that's actually featured / presented to us in this very show was overall really good. Yes there are some bad matches in this show like Roman Reigns Vs Goldberg for example but the overall quality of the actual wrestling was really freaking good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this show wasn't a bad show but it's a show that had a few bad things within it which is a shame because when you see something that is a genuinely cool moment it is really worth watching that moment again and again in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad moments that are in this very show in this very review and that means tat this very show erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 5.5 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 the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally favourite website to use to get images from this particular WWE PPV being the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page this is simply because the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page actually has alot of images from this episode and plus all of the of the images that are currently up and featured and on the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as freaking being fairly freaking high in freaking definition.

Doctor Who: Genesis Of The Daleks Review

 


Doctor Who fans after taking a rather unexpected week of from this weekly Doctor Who The Collection Series 12 reviews i'm now back with the very next episode and it's an episode that i've been absolutely dieing to cover. This episode has frequently been called the best Doctor Who Dalek story ever made and it's not really all of that hard to see why and so then join me as I review the episode that is quite easily a fan favourite episode with the episode in question being called simply just "Genesis Of The Daleks" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is The Doctor , Sarah and Harry are sent to the Daleks home world of Skaro to help to prevent there initial creation but they have to deal with an evil scientist whom may or may not have bigger plans for the Daleks then originally thought of. Now then in terms 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 really freaking good with the story also being very freaking well told and very well written as well in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is of course Tom Baker as The Doctor  , the late Elisabeth Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith and the late Ian Marter as Harry Sullivan. Also starring in this episode is the late Michael Wisher as Davros , Peter Miles as Nyder , Stephen Yardley as Sevrin , Harriet Philpin as Bettan , Dennis Chinnery as Gharman , James Garbutt as Ronson , Guy Siner as Ravon , Jeremy Chandler as Gerrill , Drew Wood as Tane , Andrew Johns as Kravos , Tom Georgeson as Kavell , Ivor Roberts as Mogran , John Franklyn-Robbins as Time Lord and the late and the most certainly great Roy Skelton as All Of The Voices Of The Daleks.

Now then om terms 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 actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really freaking good. Which yeah really shouldn't come as an absolute surprise to absolutely anybody whatsoever as the acting this season has so far been really freaking good and so then it only makes sense that this episode would also have some really freaking good acting inti as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.



So now then this episode is the first episode to introduce to us the creator of the Dalek race in Davros whom I really did like in this very freaking episode. Since he was very frightening at times and at times he could also quite charming and quite smart as well with him more often then not thinking to or perhaps even three steps ahead which does in all honesty make Davros come across as being a genuinely good or perhaps even great leader in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Now then this episode is rather shockingly a take of morality since The Doctor is forced to question his own morels in a rather iconic scene just as Davros has gotten of all of his morels. This does lead to a rather interesting parallel between the two characters as both characters are scientists but one character wants to see the Daleks be fully created where as the other having witnessed all of the horrors that the Dalek race will inflict upon the universe wants to see Daleks either destroyed or turned into something else entirely and that makes for a rather interesting parallel between these two rather freaking iconic characters in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then what I really didn't like about this episode was the mask that they used to create Davros since it makes it look like the characters eyes are closed. Which yes I know is a small thing to complain about but in my defence tho the eyes are the window to the soul and so when you deney us access to those eyes it makes the character come across as being a tad bit lifeless and plus it was just weird design choice in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Now then this episode did have really impressive shots in it with my personal favourite shot being the one where Sarah Jane and some Thals are climbing up some scaffolding which was just a really impressive shot that did in all honesty have e wondering they managed to get a shot like that into this show. Since Doctor Who was never a big budgeted show since all of the serials were made on a literal shoe string budget and so to see some rather impressive shots in this episode is a very good thing indeed in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this six episode serial had a grand total running time of roughly two hours and twenty two minuets. Which is the absolutely perfect amount of time for any Dalek serial to last since a Dalek serial needs alot more time in order to set up it's main storyline and so giving this story six episodes really did help out this storyline alot since it meant that things were developed at alot more naturel and a rather freaking organic pace in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.


Now then what I personally found to be rather shocking was that there was actually quite alot of action in this very episode which means that I have to actually talk about the actual action that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and well then all of the action that was actually featured / presented to us in this very episode was in all honesty really freaking good. Which was something that did in all honesty catch me of guard since when you think of Classic Doctor Who you don't genuinely think of good action scenes but nope the action that we actually got in this was really freaking in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this episode was everything that it was built up to be and more because yes this episode was so freaking good and it's episode that I would very freaking highly recommend any self respecting Doctor Who to watch because this episode that good in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all pf the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review which means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 9.5 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 the official Doctor Who fandom wiki page , Amazon . CO . UK and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful Google Images since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.

The Goes Wrong Show "The Pilot (Not the Pilot)" Review

 


Ladies and gentlemen since I really loved watching and then thus reviewing Peter Pan Goes Wrong I thought that i'd take a look at an episode by the same cast and crew as Peter Goes Wrong. However with there being so many really funny episodes to choose from it was really hard for me to choose an episode to do a review on and so then join as I review the an episode of a TV show that will have you laughing out loud with the episode coming the The Goes Wrong Show being called simply just "The Pilot (Not the Pilot)" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is a bunch of soldiers in World War 2 have to work whom amongst them is a spy. Now then in terms 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 really freaking good with the plot being just as ridiculous as you'd want it to be in a comedy TV show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Charlie Russell as Corporal Valerie Sky and as Cloud and Henry Shields as Lieutenant Rufus James Heal. Also starring in this episode is Bryony Corrigan as Vanessa Wilcock-Wynn-Carroway and as A Cloud , Jonathan Sayer as Dennis Tyde and as The Telegram Machine , Nancy Zamit as Annie Twilloil and as Wing Commander Wycombe , Dave Hearn as Max Bennett and as Moncrieffe and as A Cloud , Henry Lewis as Robert Grove as Hitler , Greg Tannahill as Jonathan Harris and as Winston Churchill and Chris Leask as Trevor Watson and as A Cloud.

Now then in terms 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 episode was in all honesty really good. Which something that could also be said for all of the Goes Wrong productions since everybody involved is basically playing two characters at once and that is an incredibly freaking difficult task to perform or even do in my freaking personal opinions anyways / at least.



So now then this is the first TV show for the team that created such hit stage productions such as The Play That Goes Wrong and of course Peter Pan Goes Wrong. Now then I do have to say that the The Goes Wrong Show as a whole is a genuinely really funny show and i'm not just saying because i've just spent the last days binge watching the entire second series i'm saying because it's true and it's a series I do very freaking highly recommend people watch right freaking now because it's that damn good and it's that damned funny in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. 


Now then this is episode serves to be a really good send up of World War 2 films or just war films in general. Since you have alot of the clichés that are to be found in nearly all of those films but here there are given the stereotypical Mischief Theatre twist which makes them all seem both fresh and unique which for me at the very least is a very freaking good thing in freaking deed in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then there are some things that are in this very episode that I personally didn't like like the fact that for example the crew doesn't really do that much with some of the things that goes wrong with the play. Which is a shame because when the crew does fully embrace the things that are going wrong with there play we do infact nine times out of ten get some comedy gold coming from them in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.  


Now then I really do believe that the cast and crew that are currently over at Mischief Theatre are some of funniest people currently working in comedy in the UK right now. This is simply because there shows could be described as being pure and total anarchy and the same thing could also be said for this episode since this episode is the perfect for anybody to test out if they are going to like the Mischief Theatre lot or not in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.

So now then this episode has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly thirty minuets and forty seven seconds. Which is a bit on the long side for an episode like this simply because the actual plays storyline isn't strong enough to cover that amount of running time which could also be the point since these fictional characters aren't really known for picking the best stories to adapt into a play format in my freaking opinions anyways / a least.



Now then since this is an episode of a comedy show that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very episode and 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 not that bad. With pretty much all of this episodes jokes landing and some landing quite hard as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.


Overall this episode was a rather funny episode that's in a sea of really funny episodes and in all honesty this whole entire show is really funny freaking funny as well in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this episode in this very very review and that means that this very episode erns itself a grand old score of exactly an 8.5 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 the official The Play That Goes Wrong fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and Google Images. With my personal favourite website to use to get the actual images that are from this very / particular episode that I actually used in this very review being the official The Play That Goes Wrong fandom wiki page simply because alot of if not all of the images that are currently up featured and on the official The Play That Goes Wrong fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in freaking definition.
