I definitely voted (for genesis). Thought I commented, obviously did not. If Power existed. I think it would be a contender or at least I may have voted for it. But the fact it’s animated vs Genesis.. Genesis wins.
Whilst I have to say Genesis, Power is definitely good and the Daleks themselves along with their rise and scheming is perfect. Troughton himself also hits the ground running. The animated nature of it is definitely a shame, but the story is great. With regards to Genesis, Davros is perfect, Tom is great, you get the iconic "Do I have the right?" scene. The War on Skaro feels like a location you constantly want the lead trio to escape from and seeing the conditions and attitudes of the Khaleds and Thals it makes so much sense that Daleks are the end result. Not even Giant Clams can stop it. Two of Classic Who’s finest, but Genesis comes out on top for me
I'm not a big fan of either but if I have to choose I'd go with Genesis of the Daleks. I agree with you that the real threat of it is the Daleks waiting for the right time to become the Daleks. And I love Michael Wisher as Davios. He's the best one. Power of the Daleks is ok but it has one of the scenes that I really don't like. Were the doctor is trying to provoke the Daleks. And of the 2 doctors I'm more of a Tom Baker fan. I also love Patrick Troughton but I just find Tom Baker funnier. Though Patrick Troughton has his moments too. Power of the Daleks is a good post regeneration story but I think Genesis is a good look into other own past and what could be our future. Sorry for rambling but you know when I have something to say I say it.
7:11 great point! And yeah, "Power" too does the same Dalek slaughtering, but it's not Davros driving that story's plot. A good Davros story is almost as good as a good Dalek story. Genesis and Revelation excel in that regard, but even the 80s people were hoping for a non-Davros Dalek story again and "Dalek" largely delivers, as does Eccleston's finale.. so did "Eve of", much to my surprise... mostly because the Daleks aren't a comedy act and exterminate on cue for full dramatic effect...
Oh this is a tough one! You’ve got me between a rock and a hard place - but I‘d have to choose Power of the Daleks!
Both are good but for story I like Genesis. For better use of the Daleks I go with Power.

@@SirMeowsAlot89 that’s fair.
I'm going with Power I think, because it's not just a great Dalek story it's also the first big change.
@@leecarroll4622 solid reasoning

@@ShamrockParticle though in eve the Daleks have terrible aim lol
@@AnotherScifiGuy I thought they were successfully zapping everyone time and time again? On the plus side, none of the characters was named "Adric" 😆
@@ShamrockParticle lol, they do miss a lot in those narrow hallways 😂
Genesis is the better story... power arguably the more important for the show historically.. ep 1 mainly.. i would give anything to see power though
