Lyric from "Bad Case of Loving You (Doctor Doctor)" goes here

[sabinelagrande]

So, flist. Am watching New Who, finally (which, in the time it's taken me to get started, has turned not quite so new anymore, hasn't it?). Here's my question for you: which episodes, if any, would you recommend not watching for whatever reason? Episodes that weren't any good, episodes that pissed you off, or any other reason- I am wondering what to skip, but I am also sort of fascinated by what makes people hate an episode.

Please note that I have a place in my heart for all the Doctor's incarnations and all his friends, so "Skip all the episodes with Amy/Nine/Martha/River/Jack/etc in them" is nonresponsive. Assume I'm not spoiled for anything (though I am, for quite a bit of things- when in doubt use blackout text).

"The Idiot's Lantern" in series 2 was just really boring. Also that season, "Fear Her" which is a fine episode, but involves A LOT of TV WHISPERING. A good half of it is just this girl talking in a hoarse -- yet really loud -- whisper. It's so irritating.

Yeah, but Idiot's Lantern had some really awesome Ten and Ten/Rose moments. So I'll forgive it for that. I also tend to imitate the Wire when I'm hungry, and it cracks me up.
