On the other hand, the easiest way to get the bonus-laden version now is paired with the other Auton story, so that's something?

I said this in the Community thread, but it bears repeating: Why is Sylvester McCoy in this?

Zagreus is really weird and I'm not sure if I like it, but I appreciate it. I love The Light at the End because it's so much fun having Four and Eight star in a buddy comedy. With Extra Doctors and an Awesome Master as a Bonus.

Fungah! posted:Of all the Joseph Lidster stories you could have gone with, you picked Master? The first half of Master's really good, The Council of Nicaea is a decent little historical, and Absolution's pretty good and a way better ending than I thought C'Rizz would get. I'd listen to any of the three of them over Minuet in half a heartbeat. I really like Master. Even the latter half where things get weird. The performances are fantastic. I just love McCoy and Beevers playing off one another.

ewe2 posted:Moffat is entertaining and cartoonish, but doesn't engage me the same way a Big Finish audio does (and not simply because of the format, its the content). That's how I feel. The TV show is pretty empty to me these days. Flashy and Cool, but not really Interesting. Big Finish is pretty much my go-to for Quality Doctor Who right now. Even the sillier stories, like "The Maltese Penguin," are much more entertaining and worthwhile than a lot of the stuff Moffat puts out. Of course, Big Finish does have some truly terrible stuff, too. I just generally prefer it to the TV show these days.

Imagine Voyager with a good writing crew. edit: After all, I doubt Paramount/CBS will bother with a new TV show for a while, so you may as well get those actors from the 'original timeline' to run with it.

The Maltese Penguin is one of my Go-To Big Finish audios when I need to cheer up, because it has Colin Baker acting as Frobisher acting as a look-alike of the Sixth Doctor. Colin Baker as a Shape-Shifting Penguin Detective is Wonderful.

McGann posted:I listened to my first Companion Chronicle (by accident) thanks to putting all of my Light at the End stuff on a playlist. I was cleaning and had my hands dirty, so it started into The Revenants (read by William Russell) and I just let it go for a few minutes....then a few more...I'll be damned if I didn't listen to the entire thing. Then, remembering someone said Frazier Hines does a really good Troughton impersonation, I listened to one of his - also great. I've only heard ones narrated by Russell, and I've enjoyed all of them. The Revenants especially. I also really liked the Short Trips story he narrated, Rise and Fall, which is on Big Finish's Soundcloud for free. https://soundcloud.com/big-finish/sets/complete-free-big-finish

Oh man, a team up between 8 and 12 would rule. After hearing 8 and 4 bouncing off each other like pals in The Light at the End, it'd be great if 8 and 12 were more like 2 and 3, butting heads. Who am I kidding? Any kind of 8 appearance would be great. Maybe like a mystery that started with 8 and 12 solves it, with appropriate flashbacks. Now I'm writing fan-fiction. And that's a dark moment in my life.

Thunderfinger posted:Again, is anyone having trouble buying stuff from Big Finish? When I go to buy something, it keeps saying that the bank is not authorizing the purchase with my credit card even though I have used it for other things just fine. I never had this problem with them before. I had that problem the first time I ordered from them. But I called my bank and straightened it out. No problems ever since. At this point, I order something from Big Finish about once a week.

With Capaldi as Doctor, and reading what Sean Pertwee had to say about Capaldi and Jon Pertwee being friends, I hope he can get them to make it as much like 3's run as they can in the new show. UNIT being back and a Lethbridge-Stewart being in charge of it, I can only hope that Bessie comes next. And maybe ridiculous giant maggots. That'd be cool too.

The most interesting thing is "The Holy Terror" was initially written for Tom Baker, trying to get him involved with Big Finish. I'm glad it went to Colin, but I bet the version with Tom would have been cool to hear. (Mind you, the only place I've heard that it was written for Tom instead of Colin was in one of these threads.)

Davros1 posted:When it was a Tom script, it was originally written that the people of the castle would think The Doctor was a god, not the companion. Gary Russell thought the idea of being fawned over as a living god might appeal to Tom. I'd buy that for a dollar. But the people worshiping Frobisher makes it a lot funnier. All Hail Frobisher. All Hail the Big Talking Bird.

How long are each of the "Destiny of the Doctor" stories? Are they worth the money? It seems interesting, if only for Big Finish getting to do stories for 9 through 11.

I really enjoyed "Cold War." It was the first one in series 7 I genuinely enjoy. Of course, a big chunk of that love is due to David Warner as a New-Wave Loving Soviet Scientist.
