Favourite Doctor

I find most Doctor Who fans tend to introduce themselves with the inclusion of their favourite....

For me I find it very hard so I shall not choose one, no, instead its 4, 9 and 10 with a honourable mention for number 8 who I believe could have been great if not for the terrible movie he had been put in.

I am pretty happy with the current doctor, too.

Think my least favorite would be #5, Peter Davison. He was far too 'normal'. From his interviews, he seemed to just see it as a job, and a kinda embarassing one at that.; ▶ Reply to This

Didn't like Cushing either.; ▶ Reply to This

Granted I didn't like him much at all...; ▶ Reply to This

Its amazing isn't it that this show is determined really by which Doctor you saw first. Tom Baker was my first, but I have to say my Doctor Who watching fell to the wayside until recently with the resurgence of the show, and how great Christopher Eccelston and David Tenant are.; ▶ Reply to This

Eccleston seemed to have a frantic energy that I liked and he looked right for the part to me. But I'm determined to watch the other seasons now.; ▶ Reply to This

My least favorite would have to be #7 (forgot his name), and then right after him comes Colin Baker, who seemed to be more of a jackass than what was called for in the role. I'm not absolutely head over heels for the current Doctor...there's something about him I don't really like. Maybe that he's more "human" and less of a detective like some of the earlier Doctors. Am I the only one that thinks there's something off about him?; ▶ Reply to This

The writing during that time was atrocious up until Trial of a Time Lord. He could have been great albiet harsh much like Hartnell.; ▶ Reply to This
