Fake Merchandise
This is late!
I should've posted this last year in the week following the final episode of the series. These are the six covers I produced for series 13. It would be interesting to see how Target would've handled this back in the day - six short novelisations (more profitable) or a single big one (probably more logical for a six part story).
As for the episodes, I really enjoyed this series. Some great visuals, a far ranging story packed with colourful characters and some great twists along the way. It certainly corrects the issues I have with the last two series.
As was usual, I produced some absurd TV annual covers for the festive season. They were done over a period of months so I probably would've ended up posting them one at a time had I been updating the blog then.
This is all of them together in one place:
There was that huge curved ball that CBS/Paramount bowled late last year when they removed Star Trek Discovery from Netflix just days before it was due to premiere. The press release was a classic example of working to the rules of positivity when a more empathic approach was needed for an action that affected every fan who didn't live in North America. The bottom line was "No more new Star Trek until your country gets Paramount+ as a streaming service.
Now this for me is the apex of classic Doctor Who quality. The series' budget was certainly never spent better on a season where - in their own ways - each story is a classic.
