Barking through time and space, one adventure at a time!

“DANCING THE SNAKEDANCE!”

This episode is off to a shaky beginning, if you know what I mean.

This time, we’re dealing with strange time disruptions and a strange alien disease. It goes into a sort of timey wimey tangent that doesn’t make much sense. There’s this time snake stuff that is supposed to be so heartfelt but falls very flat.

They decide to give Bad Starkey some characterisation by suddenly talking about his parents and making him go look for them. He’s been quite fine without them so far.

The Tube Corp stuff sits so badly with the rest of the episodes. which is actually surprisingly earnest.

Bad Starkey and Annoying Kid are at it again, while Forgettable Girl is the voice of reason. K9 is given something to do again.

Dull Professor is also pretty useful here again.

The build-up to the climax is slow, and then the climax itself is disappointing.

Oddly enough, the big CGI snake doesn't look too bad.

RANDOM OBSERVATIONS:

“Schroedinger’s cat and kittens!” is a new favourite exclamation of mine!
