Well, honestly, I am very much looking forward to Stranded (I know, for some of you it was a mixed bag). And I am also looking forward to Colin hamming it up as a villain even if I know next to nothing about Blake's 7. And then in January, it is Charley and 8 are back in action! So no, I am not sad. At least not about anything from Big Finish. More about life and COVID and work, that makes me sad.

I'm curious how much we actually got this year, so... from least to most:
SECOND: None. SEVENTH: One extended cameo. FIRST: A 1DA set and an EA (3 stories, 6 hours) SIXTH: 2 MR, 1 6DA set (5 stories, 6 hours) FIFTH: 2 MR, 1 5DA set, Out of Time (6 stories, 8 hours) EIGHTH: 1 MR, 2 Stranded sets, .5 TLV (10 stories, 9.5 hours) FOURTH: A PHP, 2 4DA sets, 2 Lost Stories and the Dalek Protocol (8 stories, 16 hours) THIRD: 2 boxes of 3DAs, Scourge of the Cybermen and a River Song appearance (6 stories, 17 hours)
+ we still don't know who stars in this year's Paul Spragg Short Trip! That's a 2-in-3 chance for another classic story in December.
Admittedly, this is a more sparse year than last year - but also more sparse than next year! This is an in-between time, where the Old Main Range has ended and the New Main Range hasn't started. And it comes at a time when things have been postponed - Short Trips Vol. 11 should have been out this year, alongside the Second Doctor Companion Chronicles - and when one of the classic Doctors (Sylvester) hasn't been able to record.
But also, the biggest year the Third Doctor has had with Big Finish, I think? One of the biggest for Tom, too.
(ALSO: Big Finish has occasionally bumped a January release up to Christmas Day. I know I'd love to listen to Watchers a little earlier, if anyone out there's listening for requests...)

I'm more a "glass half-full" type so am looking forward to 9th Doctor-Lost Warriors (Respond to all calls was excellent) and the revival/continuation of Survivors and more Torchwood with Mr Colchester and Ianto Martha Jones Bayban and his "reunion" with Vila as well as Stranded
