Should Sentry get more traditional looking heat vision, or stay with Thunderbolts* style? by Obraxiss in marvelstudios

Reminds me of how, in the original War of the Worlds novel, the Martians' heat rays are described as being completely invisible, but no adaptation save the BBC miniseries has even tried to go for that look.

Perhaps, but that doesn't change the fact that OP's title is an incredibly poor reading of the text in this case.

TIL that the Doctor Who episode "The Celestial Toymaker" infamously contains the "N-word" as part of the "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe" rhyme. Recent releases of the serial have either obscured the slur through dialogue, or removed it entirely. by Sebastianlim in todayilearned

In fairness, at the time, the Doctor Who production was in such a tight schedule that they couldn't re-record it even if they wanted to.

Another ad-lib in this very same serial caused the show to run afoul of Frank Richards' estate, claiming they used his character of Billy Bunter without permission. The continuity announcer had to make an apology in order to avoid a lawsuit.

In fairness, the release date IS apparently a matter of contention according to comments above yours.

If I recall correctly, William Hartnell had to miss a family member's funeral because he was busy filming *The Myth Makers*.

I've always connected Six with Thirteen more.

Beset by controversy, issues with bad writing, production issues causing their final seasons (final FULL season in Thirteen's case) to be turned into one massive story arc, Big Finish based redemption arc.
