Some of the choices raise concern (the trial season?! Way to make Colin Baker look awesome, not!) And a more even selection for each Doctor would be nicer, but this is a good effort nonetheless. Atrocious pricing, though.

This is limited selection of classic dr who with seasons playing per regeneration/actor. The selection of shows could be better and you would like more choice. But it is nice to see and enjoy the older series and relive your childhood.

I know the BBC famously deleted a lot of old episodes of Doctor Who, but there is definitely more left than this. C'mon Google, between yourselves and the BBC you could get the full 50 years of Who on here. There are plenty that would pay for those season passes...
