Review of Kinda by thedefinitearticle63

This is part of a series of reviews of Doctor Who in chronological timeline order.

Previous Story: Four to Doomsday


I'm glad that Doctor Who is being experimental and branching out but it doesn't always mean it'll be great

Peter Davison is absolutely shining as the Doctor. Simon Rouse and Richard Todd as Hindle and Sanders respectively are great, especially the former who brilliantly captures the devolution into insanity. It was one of the most engaging parts of this story. The scenes inside Tegan's mind are experimental Doctor Who at it's best.

The whole story feels like a fever dream and I love it, though it's not without it's faults. Nyssa is written out of this story because they just couldn't handle 3 companions. It also feels like the Doctor doesn't really care about his companions, especially Tegan who he just leaves to sleep in the middle of a jungle.

In general I think it's absolutely a fun story, but with a lot of glaring issues that are present not only in this story but as a whole throughout the season so far.


Next Story: God of War
