[QUOTE="darkshadows38, post: 329127, member: 19"] i dunno if he hated Baker i can't remember but for whatever reason Grade Hated Doctor Who with a passion to the point he did end up cancelling it and fans wanted it back, he hated the show so much he slashed the budget cause if you recall the last season which would be Season 22 had a pretty good budget than it was slashed and he cut the budget so much that it was shot on video tape, doctor who was a show that had celebs want to do the show after he brought it back in (1986) i don't think any other celebs did the show i don't think? i could be wrong but it was cause of Michael Grade. John Nathan Turner wanted to leave the show i don't remember which season and Grade would not let him people crack on Turner so much and with good reason don't get me wrong, i don't like him either but if you look at before season 23 i think when he still cared about the show Turner i mean. this is my own opinion or rather when his heart was still in it i meant to say i have not seen all of 5th doctors era to be fair but i do like it. but the show was i think better than when he was forced to stay the show not only suffered this is my own opinion as i said, when his heart wasn't in it anymore cause Turner was told you leave the show is f... gone it's cancelled it wasn't just the budget that suffered it was everything, i haven't seen all of McCoy's era either but he was a great doctor i think. season 23-26 in short suffered cause i think his heart wasn't in it as much as it used to be. that and he wasn't very good at going after talent from my understanding when it comes to writers, i can think of one writer i don't remember who had been a fan that wrote a number of stories and he many have said was a terrible writer. but ya know when you don't have a good budget for a show like doctor who it's hard to hire good writers for a good price and no doubt he may have been also forced to hire some writers that just the show could not afford i am guessing. i don't like John Nathan Turner either but i don't think his entire tenure was utter shit either. he did give us a lot of great stories too [/QUOTE]
