A sequel to the previous season's "Kinda". Brings back the Mara, who immediately takes over Tegan for a second time. This was another I did not like originally, but given I changed my pic.twitter.com/lLfqTPN4jp

tune on Kinda before, I wonder if I'll feel differently here. Nyssa finally gets a new outfit just two stories before she's off the show. :) @jfmouthonlegs is quite good in this ep. pic.twitter.com/fSAgXoEzbK

Possessed Tegan is fun. The Doctor tries to get a celebration of the destruction of the Mara stopped while Tegan runs around causing problems. The Mara is trying to do the same thing pic.twitter.com/beiEquwcjN

as in Kinda - resurrect itself in a corporeal form. Tegan internally battles it, and again Janet Fielding is quite good here. The Doctor is a bit panicky in this episode, I thought. pic.twitter.com/QJLTXeczoF

The Doctor is behind bars during most of this ep. Lon has become one with the Mara and Tegan and they're looking for the great crystal, which the Mara needs to manifest itself. Same pic.twitter.com/HfawL9HLM5

old Mara story ;) This ep feels more like an ep1 than an ep3, the penultimate one usually is where the shit hits the fan. This was a pretty slow ep. Tegan is mostly in the background. pic.twitter.com/DFHnr1GMr8

In the past, I actively disliked Snakedance. Don't feel this way on this watch, however, it still feels off - can't put my finger on it. I did enjoy Kinda much more a few weeks back. pic.twitter.com/JADT8hKg8T

@JFMouthOnLegs was excellent here, best thing in the story. Ep4 was more interesting than the others though, but was the only one I really enjoyed outside of Janet's performance. pic.twitter.com/rYTL4E8rrn
