I Think With The Standalone Boxsets:
* More Solo 8th Doctor Stories (Similar to Series 11 of The 4th Doctor Adventures with a Temporarily Companion for Each Story)
* If There has to be a Story Arc Range than it should be done ala Dalek Universe Style A Trilogy of Boxsets (Two in One Year and One in The Following Year- No More No Less)
* More Lucie Miller Era Stories/Boxsets
* Company of Friends Companion Boxsets set in Each Era of The 8th Doctor's Life- Sam & Fitz, Izzy and Kroton, etc
* I Certainly would never want a Tie In/Lead in boxset to Night of The Doctor
* Time War Boxsets id love to see a Lies in Ruin version of The 8th Doctor but more vengeful, perhaps have him reunite with Romana, Rassilon,etc

I don’t really want a new TARDIS team tbh. I just don’t want an endless cycle of companions for Eight while he doesn’t actually move any closer to his end. So I just prefer to keep at it with the ones we’ve already got. Carry on with how things ended in Stranded 4 and also go back and revisit older teams. 8 and Fitz- Given Nick Briggs comments unlikely to happen as Matt Di Angelo is a busy in demand actor and given Big Finish steering clear of Comic and Novel Companions unlikely to happen
8 and Izzy- While Izzy's Voice over actress has voiced a character back in 2019 for Time War Vol 4, agian probably unlikely due to Big Finish staying clear from Comic and Novel Companions
8 and Benny- Most likely to happen wish we could get a Novel Adaptation of The Dying Days with Jon Culshaw as The Brig but that's never going to happen any time soon
8, Samson and Gemma- Unlikely to happen they are basically forgotten obscure companions that were only created to create a plot twist, The Actor playing Samson is unlikely to appear but the actress playing Gemma might be okay to return as she frequently writes for Big Finish
8 and Charley- Most Likely to happen with India Fisher as with The Further Adventuress Boxset we had earlier this year
8, Charley and Crizz- Unlikely to happen as The Voice actor for Crizz is retired from acting and i don't know if Big Finish would want to recast Crizz (not that he was hugely popular)
8 and Lucie- at the current moment unlikely to happen however Sheridan Smith is very in demand not to mention becoming a mother
8 and Tasmin- Potentially likely to happen however Nicky Wardly hasn't recorded for Big Finish in a while and the character has fallen into the more obscure part
8 and Molly- Unlikely to happen as Ruth Bradley is heaps busy and given the structure of Dark Eyes there isn't much room for her and 8 to have adventures

The Eighth Doctor has had ongoing adventures since January 2001 with Big Finish and I have enjoyed them all with the exception of Stranded. Even though I look forward to one-off box sets with past companions it would be a shame if there isn’t an ongoing series.
So I am currently hoping that those two back to back box sets that have been announced for the Eighth Doctor in November and December will a six episode ongoing series and that is what we will be getting each year going forward.
And I agree that it would be nice to have the Eighth Doctor travelling solo in that 2022 series perhaps with him meeting his new companion either at the end of it or in the 2023 series.

Personally, I’d quite like to see the Eighth Doctor travelling alone for a bit. If only for a little while.

I guess what I would like to see most is the desperate and broken Doctor of Night of the Doctor, not necessarily right before night of but a Doctor desperately trying to be the good man, to help people but utterly disgusted by his own people, it would be cool to see the Timelords really pressuring him and the Doctor full on running to avoid the Time War.
In the pre time war timeline, it would be good to see a fresh companion after Liv and Helen (there still great by the way), I love when 8 meets new people, he was so charming with Charlie and I loved the initial resistance to Lucie.
I love all the different aspects of 8s character, the bouncy optimism when adventuring and the dark passion and despair when his hopeful world view is tragically shattered.
Some years at big finish particular Doctors get more releases, last year there was plenty of 4th Doctor and this year appears to have lots of 6th Doctor on the horizon, 8s my favourite so I'd love to see as much as possible, although I've yet to give January's Charlie set a try. More Time War and post Stranded adventures will definitely get my vote.
