The Gunfighters - Episode 1: A Holiday for the Doctor

Ooh, VidFIRE, shiny. Looks pretty good. This story's gotten a lot of flack over the years for many reasons. But I've always kinda liked it. The American accents aren't nearly as bad as they could be. William Hartnell has a wonderful comedic touch, he really shines when he's given some light-hearted fun. The ballad that keeps popping up every few minutes gets irritating almost right away. Doesn't Wyatt Earp look like Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen from "Back to the Future Part III", only cleaned up and a bit older? He does to me. Poor Steven and Dodo exchange one set of terrible costumes for another. The Doctor looks good in his hat. I also liked his hat in The Daleks' Master Plan. Hmm...
