I enjoyed both 'The Androids Of Tara' and 'The Stones Of Blood' from the previous season.<BR/><BR/>This didn't work for me simply because of the way it was executed on screen. The script is actually pretty good.Frank Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680654042528560764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3737235139994190228.post-26319431843065658692009-04-04T14:43:00.000+01:002009-04-04T14:43:00.000+01:00I have really happy memories of this season, well,...I have really happy memories of this season, well, apart for The Horns of Nimon which was just a joke too far. Poor old Shada, eh? That would have made such a difference. I'm a big fan of Nightmare of Eden, I love all the big sci-fi ideas in it. I know why other people might dislike it - overlit, monsters who look like a disco band, etc., but I still enjoy watching it. I haven't seen this one since it was broadcast, though, and all I can remember was my brother killing himself laughing at the blowjob sequence and the wolfweeds attacking K9.<BR/><BR/>I'm also a bit of a fan of David Fisher - The Stones of Blood terrified me as a kid, and even though it's a bit of a mess I still love it - that and The Leisure Hive. He's rather underrated.John Grindrodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03067106605722692491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3737235139994190228.post-11315364934050411812009-04-03T22:13:00.000+01:002009-04-03T22:13:00.000+01:00I'd have to agree with you there-the new K9 series...I'd have to agree with you there-the new K9 series looks like the Uwe Boll version of SJA. :( .<BR/><BR/>I'm afraid I never really got into S17-COD's excellent, Destiny's okay, but I find the other stories are pretty unmemorable.Vector-Victornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3737235139994190228.post-55316118443183732332009-04-03T14:15:00.000+01:002009-04-03T14:15:00.000+01:00At about the time this originally went out I was k...At about the time this originally went out I was kind of throwing teenage strops about everything and only very vaguely recall the story. Like you, I came back to this as an adult and found it wanting. Camp and noisy for the most part. Bayldon's good. <BR/><BR/>The new K9 series officially looks cack. Basically, it's the 'The Sarah Jane Adventures' without Sarah and an abomination of design calling itself K9. Not for me, thanks.Frank Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680654042528560764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3737235139994190228.post-32394338693514292452009-04-03T11:16:00.000+01:002009-04-03T11:16:00.000+01:00I have very vivid memories of watching this as a c...I have very vivid memories of watching this as a child and being very, very scared. Similarly, <I>Nightmare of Eden</I> terrified me.<BR/><BR/>Imagine my disappointment when I came to view them both as an adult. Just what the <I>flippin'</I> eff was I scared of??<BR/><BR/>At least <I>that</I> K9 sounds half~decent, unlike the new "Is it British? Is it Australian?" one...
