The Doctor’s face carved on a mountain Mount Rushmore-style? Lots of scantily-clad people running around, fighting invisible monsters? Green-tinged people with a superiority complex? And then you want to add-on an insane computer?!? Chris Boucher definitely gets his Doctor Who career to an impressive start with his ambition. Yes, this episode, we’re discussing The Face of Evil!

Join us as we discuss Tom Baker’s ego, the absolutely fantastic direction, Chris Boucher’s amazing world building (including the complexity of the Tribe of the Sevateem), critiques of religion, the Doctor once again acting like Bugs Bunny, the surprising influence of this era of the show on Matt Groening, and whether the Tesh should work at Willy Wonka’s factory or if they should be hanging out in Oz…
