New Earths, far-future and the distant past are all places visited in the first four episodes of Doctor Who's second season, though not all the trips are equally worth it.

DOCTOR WHO: Season 1

Most of you will already have figured out this list by looking at the scores, but here it is, ranked, from best to worst:

1. The Unquiet Dead
2. The Doctor Dances
3. The Parting of the Ways
4. Dalek
5. Bad Wolf
6. The Empty Child
7. Boom Town
8. The End of the World
9. The Long Game
10. Rose
11. World War Three
12. Aliens of London
13. Father’s Day

CONCLUSION: It's a good season structurally, but the majority of episodes are weak or alright. The actors and special effects are hit and miss, and the stories often take the easiest solutions - when they make sense at all.

SEASON ONE: 3.5 out of 5, 7/10 and B-.

 

I'm not entirely sure when I'll start doing season 2, but the first post will probably come during the weekend.
