Season Two Reviews Completed

Exactly two months on from completing the First Season, the Second is now complete - 9 stories over 39 episodes. Frustratingly, I'm still four stories behind schedule and with Easter next week I expect that to increase. However, half the stories for Season Three are missing or partially missing and one of those is the twelve part The Daleks' Master Plan so in terms of episodes the percentage is much higher (68%). I will of course be watching the Loose Cannon reconstructions of these episodes but since there are no commentaries or production subtitles I won't need time to watch them three times!

So without further ado, here is the summary of scores for Season Two

#	Title	Content	Production	Total
009	Planet of Giants	68%	80%	74%
010	The Dalek Invasion of Earth	77%	82%	80%
011	The Rescue	73%	86%	79%
012	The Romans	71%	100%	86%
013	The Web Planet	65%	78%	72%
014	The Crusade	44%	80%	62%
015	The Space Museum	42%	38%	40%
016	The Chase	71%	74%	73%
017	The Time Meddler	74%	90%	82%

This then gives us a combined over-all score for Season Two of 72% (the same as Season One!)

Season One Reviews Completed

So here we are, two and a half months into the epic project and I've just completed the first season - 8 stories over 42 episodes. For some reason, I've found myself writing up The Reign Of Terror a week late and when combined with the delay at Christmas, I'm currently 4 stories behind schedule! I don't mind dropping back because of holidays but dropping random weeks isn't good. Thankfully, like last time the next story should be a breeze - Planet Of Giants was originally a four part adventure but was cut down to just three before broadcast. The unedited version no longer exists but has been reconstructed for the DVD... it's interesting to watch but easy to see why it was cut down and I won't be watching again this time around.

Meanwhile, I thought I'd post a round up of my scores for season one since I've been including them in the reviews (something I hadn't originally planned). My scores are devised from various content and production categories (which I'll breakdown in another post at some point) which give me two percentages that I then combine for an over all score...

#	Title	Content	Production	Total
001	An Unearthly Child	61%	76%	69%
002	The Daleks	73%	78%	76%
003	The Edge of Destruction	73%	76%	75%
004	Marco Polo	47%	96%	72%
005	The Keys of Marinus	53%	72%	63%
006	The Aztecs	59%	84%	72%
007	The Sensorites	69%	88%	79%
008	The Reign of Terror	48%	92%	70%

This then gives us a combined over-all score for season one of 72%
