Another season in the can, bringing the 1970s era of the show to a close. Of course, that means that it’s time for our customary season retrospective, where we’ll look back at the entirety of Season 17 with our usual blend of end-of-season awards, a look back at our scores and metric counts, and answer a few questions from our friends on our social media platforms. These are always a lot of fun to do, so don’t miss out!
Join us as we discuss whether the glee club in Shada was necessary or not, buyer’s remorse over how we rated Season 15, what sort of alcohol this season would be, and whether we’ve finally warmed up to Romana II. We also award our very first-ever Dudley Simpson Award for Outstanding Achievement, thus opening up the Watchers in the Fourth Dimension Hall of Fame!
