I pretty much agree with what the article said.  The Sixth Doctor is my least favourite of the classic ones, but not by a huge margin, and most of the things I'm less keen on aren't really down to him.  I do find his character a bit too OTT in The Twin Dilemma, but he develops well and, as the writer says, he was cut off just when he was getting really interesting (as was McCoy, for that matter).  The problems with the era were, in my opinion, too high a proportion of indifferent writing, some dodgy supporting acting, and poor production values, which was basically down to the budget.  And the costume, of course.  I wouldn't blame Colin Baker for any of that, though, and there are gems in his tenure.
