Extra! – The Commentary of the Rani

Once again, as a thank you to our FABULOUS PATREON PATRONS, we are following through on our promise to do a commentary for “The Mark of the Rani”. Join Deb, Liz, Lynne, and Tansy as they dive into this 6th Doctor classic! For the record, Liz is right, I would have totally commiserated with the Doctor when his pun game wasn’t given the love it deserved.

Do you agree with the Verities about this story? Let us know in the comments!

Extra! – Dinosaurs on a Commentary

Remember back when we promised to do a couple commentaries as a thank you to our FABULOUS PATREON PATRONS? Well, trust us, we did. And better late than never? Here’s the first one! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Lizbeth as we discuss “Dinosaurs on a Spaceship”: the dinosaurs, the spaceship, Amy-as-Doctor, pretty-people-bias, “comedy” robots, and so much Rupert Graves. Also, a serious anti-cookie agenda.

Are you a fan of this story? Or does it annoy you like it does at least one of the Verities? Let us know in the comments!

Extra! – Love & Monstrous Commentary

Ok so the commentary itself isn’t monstrous. Nor is the episode. The amount of whiskey consumed while commentating…? Join Deb and Erika as they do a live-from-Deb’s-couch, in-person commentary! (recorded in November, 2017, during Erika’s epic US vacation-adventure)

Extra! – Paul McGann in Velvet

VerityExtraTVMIt’s another rare recorded-in-person Verity! It’s also an even-rarer commentary track! Join Deb and Lynne as they wind down from Uncanny Cabin shenanigans and settle in to watch the Paul McGann TV movie from 1996. With cocktails, natch. It’s as much fun as you’d expect!

Listener Poll – Patreon-Sponsored Commentaries!

Verity Patreon w frame

 

It’s commentary time again! Who’s excited? We are, that’s who! We are also exceedingly grateful to all our Patreon sponsors who’ve made this possible. We’ve already hit our informal goal of 120 patrons! Thanks so much! So that means we’ll be doing one commentary for sure.

As always, we want your input! We’ve each picked a new Who episode we think would be fun to talk over. Please vote for the one you think would be the most fun to listen to. We’ll keep this poll open for at least two weeks, and we’ll announce the winner here in the comments, on Twitter, and on the show!

 

And we’re mighty close to our goal for a second commentary (125 patrons), so we’re going to think positive and post the poll for that right now. If/when we hit that, we’ll leave this poll open two more weeks to give everyone ample time to vote. ETA: We’ve hit our secondary goal so this commentary WILL happen! Vote wisely!

 

So make your selections, and feel free to lobby for your choices in the comments. I have a feeling the Verities won’t hold back!

Verity! Extra! – Johnny Ringo’s a Jerk!

VerityExtraGunfightersThe moment you’ve been waiting for (if your name is Liz, anyway) has arrived! Join Deb, Erika, Katrina, and Liz as we do the second of our listener-voted commentaries. This time we take a trip to the inconsistently convincing old west with 1966’s “The Gunfighters”.

So queue up your DVD (or Hulu+), hit play when we do, and then pop into the comments below and tell us what you think!

Verity! Extra! – Tower Commentary by the Dashboard Light

VerityExtraPTCommentary210You asked for it! (Or at least enough of you did to beat out the other choices.) This Extra! sees the first of our two listener-voted commentaries! Join Deb, Erika, Lynne, and Tansy as we chatter over the Sylvester McCoy classic, “Paradise Towers“. Or rather, we’ll be talking over it if you play your DVD while listening to us. (Queuing instructions included in the ‘cast.)

And before the commentary, Lynne tells us about her exciting new project!
