We continue down the rabbit hole of #DoctorWho that Could Have Been but Never Was & take a peek inside the Leekley Bible! Let’s just say that the classic stories chosen to be remade and updated to that 90s American TV sensibility…well, they were some interesting choices!

EPISODE 350!! We each pick 3 unproduced #DoctorWho stories, flesh them out, fancast them, and pitch them to each other. This was so much fun to record! If you know anyone at @bigfinish.bsky.social, have them call us!

A couple days late, but worth the wait! As we reach the cusp of episode 350, we first look at the Jon Pertwee story Colony in Space. It’s a little bit of a middling #DoctorWho story, but there are some notable firsts, some great action, & a surprising amount of shoot outs!

Our escape into classic #doctorwho continues with the half-animated, half original eps adventure The Moonbase! The Cybermen return, bent on disabling a weather control station on the moon! And they decide to poison/convert the humans...through their sugar supply?! Ok, sure!

70 pounds doesn't get much today, but in 1967 70 pounds got you an all-day bear rental so you didn’t have to waste your money on stock footage!! And that’s not the only exciting part of The Ice Warriors! It’s a solid six-parter from the Troughton era! #DoctorWho #WhoSky

The Power of Three. Overall, a rather unremarkable #DoctorWho adventure that glosses over a lot and leans heavily on handwavium. That said, this story does have some sweet moments & introduces Kate Stewart! So it's not all bad. It's just a little meh! #WhoSky

It came from beneath the ice!! Some alien plant pod falls to Earth in the distant past only to be discovered by mankind and have it germinate and try to take over the world. Sounds like a b-movie, but it's absolutely The Seeds of Doom! #DoctorWho #WhoSky

So get ready for us to review the animated recreation of The Savages!

True true. And thank you. We'll see where things go. God forbid we enter The Wilderness Years 2.0 with "Oh hello" being our last glimpse of the show. 🤦

Podcastica! A Doctor Who Review Podcast! @podcastica.notlg.com · Jun 3

Oh, and quick programming note. We're taking June off to relax and decompressed (actually decided to do that before seeing The Reality War). So our next ep will drop July 1st.

Podcastica! A Doctor Who Review Podcast! @podcastica.notlg.com · Jun 3

Folks, we are a positive podcast. We’re always looking for the things we like in even the least enjoyable story. Well, The Reality War was a struggle. We definitely have some things we liked, but we absolutely have to address where this story leaves us & leaves #DoctorWho.

Well, #DoctorWho has ensured that we can no longer guess a mystery character is Susan or The Rani anymore because The Interstellar Song Contest gave us both! We're not sure how we feel about this weaker Mrs Flood, though. Is RTD playing at something?

WOW #DoctorWho gave The Interstellar Song Contest a lot of heavy lifting for a single episode. The Rani! The Dark Doctor! Susan!! And will we get the Susan's "find me" comment paid off this season? Or is RTD seeding something now for a future arc?

The Interstellar Song Contest has come and gone. Dugga Doo didn’t win. And for that we riot!! #DoctorWho gave us two huge reveals this ep & there's so much to unpack as well as see what we can answer before we get into the last two eps of the season. #Podcast #WhoSky

We've long been fans of UNIT and not only do we LOVE a strong female team, but we adore how much of a protective mama bear Kate Stewart has become. That's right! Don't mess with her #DoctorWho family! #Podcast #WhoSky

Lucky Day gave us brand new #DoctorWho monsters (who, granted, look like they could appear in Ghostbusters) but the steps they took to create (& re-create) the costumes is so impressive!! Listen to the #podcast to hear the whole story. #WhoSky
