- A Handful of Master examples. \

- A Handful of Master examples. \\\"Holy Shit the Master is Back ZOMG\\\" is no really an Wham example when it\\\'s resolved next episode with an absurd ResetButton, and never mentionned at all. bonus point for this gem : \\\"If that\\\'s not the EPITOME of this trope, I don\\\'t know what is.\\\" No, that\\\'s not the epitome, that\\\'s not actually an example.

- Army of Ghost example : more of the same, Cliffhanger, egregious ResetButton.

- The Rory example might count, because of the impact of his loss on Amy, and the various mentions in the following episodes, but the example fails to point this.

- The series 32 examples are kinda fine by me, because they change the dynamic in the Doctor/Amy/Rory relation, even if it doesn\\\'t come into play until The Almost People.

All in all, apart from stuff like the first regeneration, and the Doctor being stranded on earth (which I\\\'ll add), there haven\\\'t been a lot of true Status Quo changing in Doctor Who, ever.


So, quick question here : should I go on a killing spree and remove all the rubbish examples? If I do, will they be re-added in the following minute? Should I just add a Line in SquarePegRoundTrope, or will it ironically SquarePegRoundTrope the SquarePegRoundTrope page?

thanks.

Something that has bugged me a lot recently is how the Wham tropes (WhamEpisode and WhamLine) relate to DoctorWho, because of the Status Quo changing nature of wham, and the fact thatthe show\'s premise is so simple that it can\'t really change that much (And RTD\'d propension to use the ResetButton all the time).
