Now updated with recommendations for all of Season 2!
Doctor Who [Season 3]
[ Galaxy 4 ]
this one is interesting - basically all of the footage is gone entirely, unlike several of the other missing stories which have some footage, or at least telesnaps. The Loose Cannons team spent a lot of time and effort recreating a bunch of things and using visual effects to pull in footage of characters from different stories, in order to recreate it
Doctor Who [Season 3], sexism
Peter Purves, the actor for steven: I didn't like that my character was overpowered by Maaga, a woman. He's supposed to be a man.
me: hmmm.... that sounds like a pretty terrible thing to say, but maybe it makes sense in context
*watches the episode*
maaga: *is a highly trained military commander, overpowers steven because she has a gun and 3 guards*
me:
Doctor Who [Season 3]
The Myth Makers was a weird one - the story is a farce, the way they depict the trojans is a farce, the way they make Vicki fall in love with a random dude and run off with him is also a farce.
And yet it very clearly wasn't intended to be that. It's just garbage.
The third story to get a "Don't Watch" recommendation.
Doctor Who [Season 3]
@lizardsquid Less a season and more a cease-son.
Doctor Who [Season 3], sexism
The actor for Steven hated this story, because it had been originally written for the companions Ian and Barbara, and when it was rewritten for this season, Steven's lines were mostly barbara's.
He felt upset that his character had been "feminised".
