Music/Television Growing up with Doctor Who

As a child, I used to enjoy watching Doctor Who with my Dad. I’d spend countless evenings on his couch, watching old VHS tapes of the episodes with him.

My Dad was actually the one who introduced me to the show. He was around for Hartnell’s run in the ‘60s and always reminded me how terrifying the Daleks were back then.

One episode that has stuck with me is The Caves of Androzani. No exaggeration, it was the only time I saw my Dad genuinely quiet during an episode. Even he had to admit it was “brilliant.” I sat there, a kid with wide eyes, completely bewildered.

The show was like this weird portal into the past. The stories, the lessons, the old-school production, it all felt richer because I was watching it with him. Fast forward to now however, and modern Who doesn’t hold a candle to the old classics. Due to obvious reasons we all know by now.

Anyway, I guess the point of this thread is, Doctor Who was something that was tied to my family, something that made me feel like I belonged to a world bigger than myself. And it’s why I never plan on letting go of all my old tapes.
it must be sad that something you love gets ruined by leftist agenda

It’s like a punch in the gut accompanied by pain that never subsides.
jodie shitaker sucked but I think a series with romana 1 or romana 2 could have worked.

they were enjoyable female protagonists without being all kiked

Peter Davison. His outfit is the most elegant out of all the doctors. I also quite like his adventurous and haunting theme song that perfectly encapsulates the feel of the show at the time.

VHS tapes are cool and I used to watch VHS movies when I was a kid with my Mom, Brother, and Grandfather at church when he would take me to church with him through out the week (He was the Pastor)

We had plenty of Veggietales movies played in the Church when I was a child.
 
Via decree of the highest Druids of the order or Chudar, We have an announcement to make; VHS Tapes are oldGOD kino.
