Having bought and listened to all 35 or so, I have to say I disagree (but, hey, everyone's opinion is valid!). Sure, you get the occasional story that fails to hit the spot as much as others, but the same could be said of televised Doctor Who. The two McGann seasons in particular are excellent, and IMO the cliffhanger at the end of 'Neverland', the most recent McGann story, does for Doctor Who what 'The Best of Both Worlds' did for Star Trek: TNG.d said:Quote:
As for the stories with past Doctors, it's interesting to hear Colin Baker take the character forward in the way he would have done had he not been sacked by the BBC. In particular, the pairing of him and the new audio companion Evelyn Smythe (who is older than the average Doctor Who assistant) has changed a number of fans' views about Colin Baker as the Doctor (for the better!).
Incidentally, the BBC's own website chose Big Finish to produce their second online story, Real Time, which just goes to show that Big Finish can't be going too far wrong! They certainly feel right to me, much more than any of the books did.
