No, you must be mistaken. My video collection quite clearly delineates: everything made 1969 or before is categorized as “classic.” Everything from 1970 to present is clearly labeled “modern.” (Guess when I was born?)

I discovered Peter Gunn in reruns, about 10-15 years ago - and I love it! It’s the best old show I’ve come across this century. Moody, atmospheric, great soundtrack, and sometimes amazing. Alfred Hitchcock Presents is a close second-best discovery. Sometimes directed by Hitchcock, often...

To each their own. 🤣

She was great! I think it’s the only Joana Lumley performance I’ve ever enjoyed. And Jonathan Price’s Master was great. Wasn’t his name floated once or twice as a rumored/potential modern Doctor?

Sylvester is my second-favorite classic Doctor, so he got my 2nd vote after Tom Baker. I chose Chris Eccleston as my favorite modern Doctor. I found him an absolute joy to watch: funny and serious. caring and heartless. both alien and very, very ‘real.’ He was great when he had a great script...

In what I’ve seen of her episodes, I thought Jodie was a fabulous Doctor. But the stories were terrible. It felt a lot like like trying to watch Sylvester McCoy’s first series. But unlike Jodie, Sylvester was gifted some great stories, starting with his 2nd opener Remembrance of the Daleks.

I was a moody, lonely, desperate-for-sci-fi 11 year old boy when I came across Series 18, and found its preoccupation with entropy and decay absolutely riveting and revelatory. But Tom Baker hated that version of Doctor Who. And I like (i.e., desperately wanted to be) Adric. So judge accordingly.

My favorite iteration of Doctor Who is Tom Baker’s final series. I love Tom’s ominous moodiness throughout, and well pretty much everything else about that series (The Leisure Hive excepted). This is a guy who I believe has seen a universe of evil, and been fighting it for centuries. IMO.

(nevermind)

Typical. Haters gonna hate. Hate. Hate. Hate. Hate.

First post = last post, I guess. Very efficient. 🤷‍♀️ I do like Dark Sun, and still wish for a chance to play the 4e version of the Dark Sun rules. I feel it could be used for a great wahoo version of the old Thundarr The Barbarian cartoon!

To be fair, my comment was 1) I’m really looking forward to receiving this!, and 2) after that, I’m out of here because you violated your own right-good-and-proper 2020 pledge. So that bridge was already burned, by one or both parties.

GG is deleting critical comments regarding the CSIO on the page promoting CSIO on their still-undelivered Backerkit campaign for Jennell’s Caverns of Thracia. Well, they deleted my comment at least. Not surprising. But I feel like noting that here merely because I can’t do so there.
