Series Four - The Tennant Era

First Time Who Watcher Charlynn Schmiedt once again joins to talk about her new experiences watching "old" Who. This time it's series four - which can be defined in a few ways; we discuss the episodes from "Partners in Crime" to "The Next Doctor" special. There's new(ish) companion Donna Noble, the re-appearances of Rose Tyler and Martha Jones, and an epic reunion of all companions and Dalek enemies at the end. What did Char think of the Tenth Doctor's final full series? Is she ready to say goodbye? And what did she think of Donna's exit from traveling on the TARDIS? Let us know your favorite episode from this series of Who.

"Fury from the Deep" Animated Review

Second Doctor fans continue to enjoy the new release of animated "lost" episodes of the Troughton era. Jessica and Phillip are joined by Richard of "Clever Dick Films" as they dive into the restored series five serial. The Doctor, Jamie, and Victoria find themselves on Earth as they battle a mystery in the natural gas pipelines, a company filled with troublesome figures, and the ultimate departure of one of their own. The story, the actual animation, and the behind-the-scenes featurette make this 1968 production come alive (again!) for all Whovians. What is the next "lost" adventure you are looking forward to being animated?

Series 11 (Classic) Wrap-up

Jessica and Phillip finished their initial watch of the Third Doctor era, and now look back at the series that closed this chapter, introduced Sarah Jane Smith as a companion, and provided some memorable moments. From the pseudo-historical "The Time Warrior" to the unfortunate special effects of "Invasion of the Dinosaurs," from the mandatory Dalek story of "Death to the Daleks" to a rare sequel to an earlier adventure with "The Monster of Peladon." Then there is the final serial of "Planet of the Spiders," where the Third Doctor faces his fear and ... regenerates. Do you have a favorite episode or moment in Series 11?

In their look into the TARDIS library, the couple examine their time in the Jon Pertwee Era by re-visiting the Clever Dick Films video (https://youtu.be/zH-tlUZtrdw) covering this time of the franchise. What do they appreciate more now? And does watching the entire Era in order add anything to appreciate the time of the Third Doctor?

Companion Potpourri - Martha, Amy, and Bill

They enter our lives, make us laugh and cry, and then leave by either death, marriage, or ... magic? It's the Doctor's companions - and we are examining Martha Jones, Amelia Pond, and Bill Potts. How did each of these women work with their respective Doctors? What were their families like? How did they develop and grow in character during their time in the TARDIS? And what did we think of how they left us? Let us know your favorite companion moments.

In their look into the TARDIS library, the couple look at the 2001 slapstick comedy TV movie, "Hotel!" starring Paul McGann, Peter Capaldi, and Bradley Walsh. Have you seen this? Is it a great comedy or a greatest comedy?

Companion Potpourri - Rose, Donna, and Clara

Billie Piper, Catherine Tate, and Jenna Coleman recently appeared on a "virtual" Doctor Who con panel -- which leads to this discussion about their respective companion characters. Jessica and Phillip look at these women's relationships with their Doctors, their families, and their departures (good, bad, and memory loss!). What are your favorite moments from these companions' times aboard the TARDIS?

In their look into the TARDIS library, the couple co-hosts review the latest YouTube video from Clever Dick Films - "Dr Who Review - Companions: Jamie." Are all your questions answered about the Second Doctor's consistent companion?

In their look into the TARDIS library, they look at the British series "Fortitude," featuring Christopher Eccleston in its first series, along with other "Doctor Who" alum. They examine the first two episodes, do you think they should continue?
