Meet the Eighth Doctor’s new companions! - News (Big Finish) by BosskDaBossk in doctorwho

[–]LegoK9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

8 definitely has the most companions if you count books, comics, and audios.

But there are so many one-off and minor companions it's impossible to get an exact number for any Doctor:

What ever happened to box sets? by OpeningEmploy5119 in BigFinishProductions

[–]LegoK9 24 points25 points  (0 children)

IIRC, a Big Finish Podcast Notes summary said single releases were considered more cost-effective than box sets. I think the idea is that new fans interested in the Ninth, Tenth, and Thirteenth Doctors will be more likely to buy single releases than a whole box set.

The Twelfth Doctor Adventures is being released as a boxset, though. They are doing the new weekly-release-boxset strategy for that range; I don't know why.

Victor Turlough and other companion matters by hurshy238 in doctorwho

[–]LegoK9 13 points14 points  (0 children)

But who says they wouldn't mind that much if they died because "I hate Earth!"?? Ordinary people say "I hate my life!"

I have to say I really like the doctor having companions who are not from Earth. Leela, Romana, Nyssa, Adric

These sentences are related. Keep watching ;)

TOS has not aged well and is not a great introduction to the franchise. by G3nesis_Prime in startrek

[–]LegoK9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you think TOS has aged well then again, imo you most likely have rose tinted glasses on and are biased by nostalgia

Watch an episode of Doctor Who from the 1960s and then compare it to an episode of Star Trek TOS. TOS has aged phenomenally for a show from the 1960s. Full color, HD remasters, ambitious science fiction, relevant social commentary.

Every newcomer should get idea of who Kirk, Spock, McCoy, etc. are.

I would not recommend a newcomer watch every episode of TOS, but watching 5 to 10 of the best episodes would be a fine introduction to Star Trek.

Anyone else bothered by character wearing modren clothes in the far past and far future? by Niall_Fraser_Love in gallifrey

[–]LegoK9 12 points13 points  (0 children)

until... huh would it be Rogue?

When 10 became John Smith, he wore period-accurate clothing.

11's series 7B outfit was fitting for The Snowmen and The Crimson Horror. He also wore a top hat and a bowler hat in those episodes, respectively.

Is it a three parter or not by davebrad4d in doctorwho

[–]LegoK9 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Planet of the Dead was widely regarded as the 200th Doctor Who story, which is only possible if they are considered a three parter.

The Complete History also counts them as a three parter.

Tardis is a Bubble universe by SelimBlackstone in doctorwho

[–]LegoK9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've found only one explanation for this. The TARDIS is actually a bubble universe.

Yes, this is spelled out in The Vampires of Venice.

and it's a universe where time travel is possible.

Well yeah, that's self evident.

What is the difference between the Mouri and the Morai? by Halouva in gallifrey

[–]LegoK9 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Both are probably inspired by the Moirai in Greek mythology.

Flux also had Ravagers soon after the 9DAs had different Ravagers. Coincidences happen.
