Doctor Who: The Whovian Review

Shada, the one never completed Classic Doctor Who story is our topic today! This story has been told, retold, reedited, animated, released on audio with different Doctors, and has had two K9 actors take on Douglas Adam's curious script. We watch the most recent version included on the Season 17 Bluray release. Warren, Jeremy, and unsurprisingly Michael are on this one again.

Warren, Jeremy, and Michael try to count down the rankings for this particular story that made us laugh, and gave us some joy to watch thanks to Tom Baker being there to begin with. As the first ever VHS release for this show, was this a worthy story to be number 1? Harry Sullivan is an imbecile, Sarah Jane attracts Cybermats, and gold seems to be the scariest part of this story (for Cybermen).

Thank you to Hayden Powell for posting your gorgeous music to Youtube. He created it masterfully. Anywho, the gang dives into the crazy and zany Series 15/2 finale. Tears, joy, chaos, missed opportunities, last minute changes, and Billie?! We discuss all of the points, and dissect this story from start to finish. The most intense edit I've had to do in a while, but totally worth it.

The Rani finds the seventh son of the seventh son of the seventh son who turns out to be a wishing child. Conrad wishes a whole world where the roles of everyone in the Whoniverse have changed drastically, and the Doctor and Belinda have a child, Poppy!? The Rani, er the Master like Rani, has huge plans to bring back someone else from the Doctor's past, but in the meantime we need to tackle the re...

Dugga Doo everyone! We sing our praises or dissent on this lavish episode with reveals, action, harmony, and little pink alien creatures singing one of the weirdest and most catchy cute songs of 2025. Will we be won over by this episode, or will these vocals land on flat ears? Listen to our music as we provide a walk through the Interstellar Song Contest.

We dive into this tale of the Doctor dropping in at a local barber's shop in Nigeria. Being forced into the chair to tell stories, the Doctor doesn't realize he is generating fuel for the barbershop which exists in an alternate plane of existence, and needs stories in order to generate movement. Lets see how the actual author's of the group react to this story. (Shelby and Jeremy the Elder). 

Colin, Shelby, and Michael tackle this Doctor lite episode which is the fourth in Disney's Season 2. Ruby Sunday returns for another outing as she works for UNIT and meets Conrad, a podcasting hottie, who turns her head and heart towards someone who appears kind like the Doctor. Music clips are here thanks to Brambles & Stars. Find his beautiful recreations on YouTube!

Jeremy, Lou, and Michael all discuss this sequel episode in stereo! Will we appreciate the story? Will the science hold up? And will the Doctor's tears be warranted? These topics and more are discussed over this creepy and stylistic episode. Just don't go behind someone if they are sitting still in the middle of what seems like and empty room!

We dive into the second episode of Season 2/15. A cartoon comes to life and terrorizes Floridians in the 1950's. After everyone in the theater disappears it is up to The Doctor and Belinda to save the day after The Doctor becomes interested in a locked cinema. Its unlikely that the companions are ready for what they will find in the theater once they have broken in. All of us are back together for...

Warren and Michael reach back in the vaults of 1975 and check out the 2 part Tom Baker story. Warren is a new podcaster who will join in on classic reviews moving forward, while the rest of the gang will be helping out with the newer series. Expect more content soon as we are currently enjoying multiple stories from multiple eras. Welcome Warren!

The gang is back and tackling this opening episode to the second Disney Season. How does it fare compared to Space Babies, or The Eleventh Hour? Does this hold up as an opening episode? And how do we enjoy Belinda Chandra? Does the 15th Doctor cry or do we notice? And what about the overall look of this episode? We discuss all of these points and more!

Welcome to the Time Hotel where you can view dinosaurs, visit a bombing, or just spread joy to the world. Come romp with us through this holiday adventure as we meet new friends, revisit an old enemy, and launch ourselves into Doctor Who 2025!

Colin, Shelby, Jeremy, and Michael dive into the final outing with Sarah Jane Smith! We give our take on Eldrad, and he must live, er, uh, She must live! Elizabeth Sladen gives a tearful performance, and the Doctor shoves off back to Gallifrey in the end. But did we like the story???

A semi-historical Fourth Doctor and Sarah Jane Smith story that involves the Madragora Helix, cultish characters, and ancient royalty. Sword fights, horse chases, and a very long scarf endure. Join us as we rate another 4th Doctor tale!

When autotrophs attack, no one is safe! Monsters from the dawn of time and plants that scream in what can only loosely be described as a melody, an Antarctic research station and an insane millionaire: this story has it all.

The Sisterhood of Karn sentence the Doctor to death while Morbius is being recreated Frankenstein style. WIll we object to the violence, or will we embrace the Doctor needing a glass of water while standing in the rain? Colin surprises us with his rating for sure!

Fake trees, fake leaves, fake money, fake towns, fake people, even a fake Sgt. Benton, and a fake Harry Sullivan make a mystery out of the planet the Doctor and Sarah stumble onto. The Kraals are plotting, and a guy named Guy is part of that plot. What do we make of this sinister story?

Episode 279- An evil planet, a beast of antimatter, a long lost mineral excavation team, and some of the most unique set designs in Who's history. But how does the story hold up with today's audience? Come join us as we move into madness. in and out of the story...

A cautionary tale about how letting zygons be zygons can lead to an infamous monster breaking into Parliament.

Revisiting an old classic which encompasses the Doctor's first encounter with Sutekh - The God of Death !!

Our thoughts on the last episode of Doctor Who - Season One on Disney+ Sutekh has risen again, but as a dog?! The mystery of Ruby Sunday comes to an end, sorta, and some goodbyes take place that eat at your heart strings.

The TARDIS (along with its mysterious passenger) crashes into UNIT for an exciting peek into Ruby's past and Susan Triad's present.

Ruby rolls a 20 for Bridgerton insights in this one. Cosplaying owls attack while the Doctor is distracted by a rogue romance. 

Ruby is trapped in an alternate timestream maybe because of a fairy circle perhaps.
