For a season of The Sarah Jane Adventures, there honestly wasn’t terribly much Sarah Jane, and I think that worked to the show’s advantage. Luke leaves in the first serial and doesn’t come back until the last one, taking K9 with him. This leaves us with Clyde and Rani, and their developing relationship which is wonderful. The two of them work so well together as a team, and the show shines when the two of them get to work together to save the world like in The Empty Planet. The stakes on the show continue to be hilariously high, but in the premise of children’s tv it doesn’t seem to matter much. I think kids can understand ‘save the world from destruction!’ more than emotional stakes. Still, there are those, especially in the final episode where Clyde and Sarah Jane come close to death. It’s a shame this was the final full season of this show, because who knows where it could’ve gone from here.
8.5/10 It was a standard affair
