Some Doctor Who episodes are good. Some are great. Some are pretty forgettable. And some are epics — not just riveting in their characterization and storytelling, but also in the way that they established or rewrote the fundamentals of the show.

But could our memories have been corrupted by the passage of time? Let's hook up to the Matrix and find out. Please leave a review!
