5.0 out of 5 stars Great Example of Classic Who May 31, 2012
By J. Batistoni
Tom Baker's second story, I really loved this "episode" as a kid, and it holds up over time. Yes the bug suit is a bit funny, but that's Doctor Who for you. Liz Sladen and Ian Marter do a great job as usual, and Tom Baker fully solidifies his role as the iconic 4th Doctor

5.0 out of 5 stars The Doctor who! December 19, 2010
By Mr Demill
The first time I saw the doctor he was Tom Baker. I cannot help but judge all the Who s by him. He was wonderful as the Doctor and well worth watching. He may be odd to someone who was introduced to the Doctor by another actor but his quirks are so endearing that other Doctors will seem plain.

1.0 out of 5 stars Where is the Rest? October 6, 2012
By Timothy Haworth
This is an excellent season that I cannot recommend highly enough. However, Amazon is missing literally 80% of the season, including arguable the best Dr. Who story of all time in Genesis of the Daleks. This is an incredibly callous oversight that should be corrected immediately, if not sooner
