Doctor Who Season 4
SPOILERS TOTAL. You've been warned.

027: The Smugglers
(First watched 2011-06-13, -14, -15, -16)  Boy oh boy.  A reconstruction.  A historical.  The group split up, and at least some of them jailed.  It's like my least favorite formats and clichés have joined forces.  Really the only thing a bit interesting about this one is thanks to a 2011 episode which seems to link to this one a bit by way of "Captain Avery".
"We have arrived at the coldest place in the world!" Â Well, which world?

028: The Tenth Planet
(First watched 2011-06-17, -18, -20) Â December 1986! Â The future!
These Cybermen have outfits only slightly more advanced than the cheap plastic Halloween costumes for kids. Â Also, Polly seems a biiiit narrow-minded. Â I mean, I know the Cybermen are being jerkoffs and everything, but get mad about the right stuff. Â More than once she went on about how they couldn't get along because they were different. Â Way to love diversity there, Polls.
So it's Hartnell's last complete episode as the Doctor... and all he does is collapse at the beginning and lay in bed? Â Will we see him do anything at all again before regenerating?
The singsongy but roboty sound of the Cybermen is like autotune gone horribly horribly wrong. Â Melting Mondas... well, good thing having an Earth-sized planet melting nearby has NO detrimental effects.
The whole thing vaguely reminds me of the Star Trek: Enterprise episode with the Borg left over from Star Trek: First Contact. Â Human-machine mix, at a remote snowy base, and the Cybermen were even saying things like "Resistance is useless."
Bye-bye, Hartnell.
