I'm really striving to finish classic who before new who returns in november
  • Yeah that's true. I would say the best classic doctor is probably Baker but Troughton surprised me by being the first classic who doctor that felt like the same old doctor I had known and loved which makes him my favorite classic who doctor. Like Capaldi is my favorite Newhu doc but not sure if I'd say he is the best. And yeah 13 is a very distant cousin

  • I started with 10s last episodes The end of time. I had been watching something on BBC and the commercials for Tennants last episode looked so good I gave it a shot. By the time Capaldi was finished airing I couldn't get enough. Took a long time but going through classic who was great and made me appreciate the show and charecter all the more. I gotta say Patrick Troughton was such a suprisingly good doctor, it sucks so many of his episodes are hard to find because he really softens the Doctor into a more caring and whimsical hero. Everyone point to Baker and he was great but 2 is probably my favorite classic who doctor.

  • Watching Thirteen
  • My big problem with 13 is there is rarely a worthwhile payoff. Her last season was building up to this cool thing and then it fissled out like a 30 year old sparkler. As much as I don't blame Jodie I do think they messed up with a lot of her character decisions. From 9-12 you can see aspects of the others and many former doctors. Capaldi especially has a lot of inspiration from former regenerations but 13 rarely tried to tie them together with anything more than a single out of context line. The few tries to connect her to whovian lore always worked too her time with Captain Jack was great m. If they'd just stayed a little more true to Doctor lore and not mucked about with way too many companions and convoluted stories with no pay off it would have been much better. That said I would only ever suggest people watch 13 if they are big fans already. Such a shame since when she gets the chance she can shine as the doctor, they just rarely gave her one.
