When Pull To Open debuted three years ago, we didn’t even have a rating system — just a sound of drums in our heads, convincing us to bring thoughtful commentary about Doctor Who stories from the perspective of longtime fans who are also journalists. As we went deeper into the show and installed the key component in our journey — the Pull To Open Randomizer — we developed a shorthand for signaling if we considered an episode good (a Dalek) or not so good (an Ogron). Eventually we created ratings for unsuccessful stories that were instructive (a Professor Hayter) and the absolute best of the best (the coveted Viscount Banger). Completists that we are, we felt the need to go back and retcon our old ratings with our current system to ensure our newly upgraded Pull To Open Codex stays fully armed and operational. Come with us as we cross our own timeline to fix the past. Because that’s always a good idea.
