I finally got around to getting some icons of Classic Who. :D And speaking of, I'm watching The Sea Devils right now.

Am I the only one who finds the Master boring? *sigh* He's just...so straightforward and predictable! The Simm!Master a bit less so, but even he is quite reliably megalomaniacal--just, you know, more insane. He's most interesting in how he makes the Doctor react, but really only Ten, since Ten is so messed up from the Time War. Frankly I find the way the Doctor interacts with the Brigadier far more interesting.

I've been watching Classic Master serials, trying to find him interesting, but inevitably his bits of the serials are the ones I find most boring. Maybe I just haven't seen enough serials.

I dunno, I'm not sure the Master is an acquired taste. Possibly he is, since I've learned that my love for most Doctors grows with time, but as far as I can tell you either adore the Master immediately or sit around waiting for him to go away.

Incidentally, your icon is made of 100% win. <3

Well, I was thinking that maybe other serials reveal hidden depths, except then I remembered...this is Classic Who. XD

I <3 this icon! UNIT is so much win. :D

I admit I adore the Master because he's just so camp and silly, but he's a very predictable bad guy. I prefer the episodes where he's even dafter than normal and the ones where he has to work together with the Doctor.

I think I only have one slot for "predictable and somewhat ridiculous, but I love them anyway", and that's Daleks. XD
