Re: Book club - November discussion: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

It was ground-breaking when it came out, and it's still pretty ground-breaking today, though now I can see where its roots are in classic Doctor Who, dialled up to 11.

But what made me go "wtf" all the way through is that there's only one speaking female character - in fact, I think Trillian is the only female character on-stage. I should have picked up on that all those years ago. I didn't because I was young and that was the way things were.

But Douglas Adams wasn't young, and he was a good deal brighter than me - as he says in his bio, he went to Cambridge! So my main impression this time around is, "Badly done, Douglas."

Fair points IMO.

I do think the Doctor Who stuff is interesting but it also kind of feels like a Doctor Who episode without, like, an editor or someone to put a plot in.

I was glad she was intelligent and not super stereotypical though it definitely bugged me that she was the only one. :(
