I love how ever since all the actual talent left BBV has effectively pivoted to making Gregg Turkington films. One of the new P.R.O.B.E. minisodes even has Nosferatu in

it's crazy that the only (to my knowledge) piece of expanded universe doctor who to acknowledge ace being a lesbian, intended on tv but retconned by almost everything else, is of all things the novelisation of the first bbv's weird "Professor and Ace" knock-off audios

Amazing how many people are literally doing this Onion bit. Hadn't heard of him last week, first thing they heard was that he was a rapist, and they just immediately sympathised with him.

i love this comment and it's just a feeling they can no longer give you when guys like this never make their own art now, never put any humanity into it. becomes harder to relate to why they believe these things.

i love tv comic so much. It really does have the most insane premises. Some Lindsay Anderson shit going down. There's no other Doctor Who like this.

This reading is also good BTW. While the Silurians are clearly the colonisers if you read this as a colonial allegory in the first place, it's also possible to reject that framing entirely and read it as purely about class.

Like this is a pretty hopeless misreading of it. You know you're in a bad place when Chris fucking Chibnall understood it better than you did.

haven't read this book but if I'd read this as a kid this is the exact sort of thing that would make me go "no it fucking wasn't. earth was still occupied by the daleks in that year so was in no position to be hosting sporting events. how stupid do you think I am, book?"

Genesis of Evil deserves to be remembered for more than the fact Genesis of the Daleks retconned it. the reveal of the first Dalek (well, first Dalek casing, the species was already called Daleks before inventing the casings in this story) is honestly stirring stuff.

Note the extremely weasely language used here to describe the content of the transphobic propaganda film Adult Human Female here.

the bbfc are huge pieces of shit. a movie whose entire purpose is spewing hate speech against people like me gets approved but one of the most significant films of the Yugoslav Black Wave is still effectively banned in this country to this day

A random throwaway line from a TV Comic strip simply intended to set up the backstory for the story's MacGuffin being more woke in its appraisal of the conquest of the Aztec empire than the television serial The Aztecs was is interesting

Whenever something like happens I always imagine - what if he just died here? After all his adventures what did him in was being accidentally left on a small rock by a well meaning lizard alien and starving to death.

yeah, douglas adams is pure reddit humour. also, i watched this show called seinfeld, and it was so clearly just a tamer knock-off of always sunny! and then i tried watching this play called hamlet that everyone told me so good, but the plot and dialogue were full of cliches!

For all notable recurring characters in print Doctor Who stories (that haven't been played by an actor in any official capacity) I like to choose a specific one to imagine them as in my head cause it helps. This is what I've got for all the wilderness era stuff so far.

How every Virgin New Adventure should end:

Ace: Professor! I can't believe you did that morally ambiguous thing!
Doctor: Well, Ace, I'm sure whenever you save the universe you manage to do it without any any collateral damage  or difficult decisions whatsover then. Oh, I forget, how many times have you done that again?
Ace: OK, Professor,  I get it.
Doctor: No, Ace, answer me. How many times have you saved the universe?
Ace: Professor, I told you I get i-
Doctor: Ace! Tell me!
Ace: ....zero
Doctor: Oh, yeah, right. That's it. Zero. So, maybe you don't tell me how to save the universe, and I won't tell you how to use outdated slang. Deal?
