[@MarionBaggins]

People: 6 is the worst Doctor... *Talks about how annoyed about him* Me: *Listens to this and drowns out the hate for 6* What was that?!!! I can't hear you over the sound of his epic singing voice...What an Underrated/Overhated Doctor...You are Amazing Colin!!! I haven't seen a single 6th Doctor Story...But I want to!!!

[@ChrisC11291980]

If JNT had only put some effort into Colin Baker’s era, he could have had the best era on the show in years. He’s a fun guy with a great sense of humor. He loves the show too. He was just let down by the writing, much like Jodie Whittaker.

[@rockotarsoldaccount]

Most of Colin's episodes really aren't that bad actually. Only Twin Dilemma (bad) Timelash (terrible) and to a lesser extent The Mark of the Rani (mixed bag) and The Ultimate Foe (underwhelming finale). The rest of his stories are actually quite good Vengeance on Varos (I don't need to explain this one) Attack of the Cybermen (clever plot that actually uses the original concept of the Cybermen, and has some great moments of character development for the 6th Doctor) The Two Doctors (and underrated gem, perhaps slightly too long and yes the Doctor does kill Shockeye, but everything else is so great I can overlook the few flaws) Revelation of the Daleks (a dark masterpiece which explores the insanity of Davros and his maniacal plans, and his manipulative personality, as well as the suffering which he has forced the people of the funeral facility to endure) The Mysterious Planet (not anything particularly special, but decent all round) Mindwarp (Confusing for sure, but also highly intriguing, the plot of transplanting minds is very good and Peri's fate is terrifying) Terror of the Vervoids (another just decent romp, an interesting side cast and a great villain design on pretty good sets, good presentation lifts the OK plot) I will never understand the hate for Colin's era when it was really pretty alright, not the best by any stretch, but certainly not the worst era (*cough* Chibnall *cough*) or even second worst (*cough* Capaldi *cough*). Anyway that's just my take.

[@That_Random_Bloke]

@@rockotarsoldaccount I would agree with this. And the bloody irony of Chibnell going on Open Air to criticise the season only to 30 odd years later produce a far worse one!

[@tommarsdon5644]

​@@rockotarsoldaccountthe twin dillema really is one of the main reasons. It's not just bad, but what makes it truly awful is the timing. One of the worst serials right after one of the best. It's also Colin's first serial whilst also being a season finale, meaning this was all people had of him for a long time. People already decided that his are was bad before it really began because the twin dillema was all they had at the time.

[@dregoth22]

​@@rockotarsoldaccount Timelash, I find is one of the good ones (it's just let down by Herbert)

[@yoloswagboycashmoney]

Little known fact: Colin Baker constantly tried to get the show runners to change the show into a musical, and would always waste the first take singing his lines. This, not poor ratings, is the actual reason he was fired.
