Doctor Who Story 290 – Nikola Tesla’s Night of Terror

Good moustache, glowing eyes guy. So many great moustaches. It’s the guy from Hustle. Whose brother is Gene Hunt. Is that the spider lady from “Runaway Bride?” Apparently the spider is Anjli Mohindra who played Rani in Sarah Jane. Oh, she’s not the same species as the Spiders from Mars. The baddie is a Pakled. Rani! Stop being a naughty girl. Sarah Jane would be so pissed.

Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventure Series 5

This was intended to be a full season, but Elisabeth Sladen sadly passed away before completion. They were able to get these six episode (three stories) filmed prior to her death. As such, this is also the final season of The Sarah Jane Adventures. I didn’t expect that I would like the show as much as I did, I think it’s a much fantastic kids’ show and definitely the best Doctor Who spin-off we’ve had. Sky Luke still gets a stint in the saga sell. Does Sarah Jane really get a baby to replace Luke? I don’t like that idea. “His skin is metal.” And you don’t think he’s a… Read More »Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventure Series 5

Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 4 & Sarah Jane’s Alien Files

The Nightmare Man Part One They’re still doing the whole saga sell. From what I understand Luke is just a featured player this season, yet he’s still in the saga sell. They really love slowly zooming in on the Earth and the United Kingdom. That’s not how you get out of handcuffs, get a shim under the clicky clicky parts, tighten it one click while putting the shim in between the clicky clicky parts and the locking mechanism, and then slide it out. So Luke is going to Oxford, good for the boy genius, but still needs to learn how to be a human. I guess high school wasn’t really… Read More »Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 4 & Sarah Jane’s Alien Files

Doctor Who story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures series 3

Prisoner of the Judoon They’ve added a saga sell to the beginning of the episodes. Quantum Leap always had the best one. Watching The Sarah Jane Adventures right after Torchwood‘s “Children of Earth” makes me think that Jack should have called Sarah Jane. She has expertise of working with children. How does Sarah Jane know about the Judoon? I love the spray bottle. “Mr Smith, if your central processor fully functional?” Well that escalated quickly. Mr Smith is going to blow up all of Bannerman Road. Wow, Elizabeth Sladen is terrible at playing the baddy. I hate saying this. Wow, I think that’s the first contract security that act realistically.… Read More »Doctor Who story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures series 3

Doctor Who story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures series 2

The Last Sontaran Oh my god! The UI on her music player. The past was so weird. Goblin’s Copse? That’s the name of the village? British people are weird. Call an ambulance, she hit her head. Oh yeah, call the police, too. There’s a missing person. Sarah Jane is being a bitch to Maria. It’s a cloaked Sontaran! I’m impressed by the Sontaran actor’s ability to run in that costume. Call UNIT, Maria and Luke! Or at least call Mr Smith and have him call UNIT. They could have brought Martha into The Sarah Jane Adventure. I really like the single balloon falling around when Mr Smith opens. I wish… Read More »Doctor Who story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures series 2
