ginainthekingsroad: The Third Doctor spreads his cape dramatically (DW- Three cape)

[personal profile] ginainthekingsroad 2015-04-17 11:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I think Adric's reputation problem comes from his character's personality and acting performance, not his skillset/abilities. Although SF fans are frequently biased against allegedly hyper-competent child prodigies (who really do fail more often than not, because the adults are the MAIN characters and must save the day).

Adric had moments. I tolerate him pretty well in his Fourth Doctor stories, especially Meglos (such cheese! and Romana being great) and Logopolis. And Earthshock is pretty good. Once you watch it in context of Five's arc, it does come across as a moving sacrifice, and you don't really cheer his demise. Although that is me speaking at 30+ years removed from air date (ie, I didn't watch it when it was fresh and new).

Um, Adric wasn't in Meglos, he didn't join the show until the next story.
