• RTD's Second Era: Episode League Table

    From Blueshirt@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jun 20 10:18:24 2025
    As it's a quiet news day... and we all know Doctor Who
    fans love lists... now that the dust has settled on S2/15
    here - for posterity on RADW - is my league table of all the
    episodes of RTD's second era on the show ranked in order...


    1) Boom
    2) 73 Yards
    3) The Star Beast
    4) Rogue
    5) The Well
    6) The Giggle
    7) Wild Blue Yonder
    8) The Devil’s Chord
    9) Lux
    10) The Church on Ruby Road
    11) Lucky Day
    12) Joy to the World
    13) The Legend of Ruby Sunday
    14) The Interstellar Song Contest
    15) Dot and Bubble
    16) Wish World
    17) Empire of Death
    18) The Robot Revolution
    19) The Story & the Engine
    20) The Reality War
    21) Space Babies

    This list means absolutely nothing in the big scheme of
    things of course, but it was fun to compile... and if I
    stare at it long enough I could even move episodes
    around... so I won't!

    For somebody who has been on Usenet for decades his mind
    retention on how things work here, or how to use a newsreader
    properly, is severely lacking.
