Exactly. It's stuff like that that RTD does most typically, and that's the kind of thing that has always bothered the hell out of me. Stop with the contemporary references!

Doomsday -- pretty good.
Gridlock -- meh.
Smith and Jones -- agreed; perhaps RTD's best.
Utopia -- also agreed; pretty damn good one here too.
Sound of Drums -- hmm... this is where my interest in the finale dipped, so I dunno.
