Doctor Who; The Slitheen

The Slitheen

It's a Whosday!

When Doctor Who first came back (referred to as "Nu Who") with Christopher Eccleston, I caught the "Aliens of London" episode... While the "false-flag alien crash in London designed to spread fear and consolidate power for the government-disguised Slitheen usurpers" storyline was really interesting, the execution was rather goofy. So much so that it kinda turned me off of Doctor Who until a friend got me to try out the newer Matt Smith Doctor, and I was hooked from then on. I'm able now to go back and appreciate the Eccleston stuff in context, even the Slitheen episodes. At any rate, after a long wait, here they are.

A couple of pieces from some great contributors as well today, Daniel has done a great job on "Bucky Barnes" from the Captain America movie;























Ximo also has done something to cool share today, it's Hulk-Thing!

  1. Hah! I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I grew up on Classic Who and when Nu Who was launched, the first episodes I saw were the Slitheen ones - I was...NOT impressed. I saw it as nothing but fart jokes and was really disappointed. I took a break for a few months and then, when the whole series came out on DVD - for some reason, I splurged and bought them and watched it from the first Eccleston episode. Watching in context, I fell in love and have been hooked on Nu Who ever since. And now, I even love the Slitheen and find them fun.

  2. It's just like X-Files, Supernatural or any other long running show in that respect. You're going to get goofy episodes now and then. I started watching Eccelston from the start with the Autons and that almost turned me off but I stuck with it and the very next episode was fantastic!
