Give the classics a try, especially Troughton (limited episodes survived), Pertwee, and Tom Baker. Just a notice though, the production values were horrible and that was part of the charm of the show. I think it was a lot funnier than it is now.

I might go back at some point but it's a HUGE investment to sit down and watch all those episodes, there's a TON! Just finished up last night.. have to say the 50th and the 11th Doctor's death were pretty disappointing, though it was great to see Matt and David together bouncing off of each other and adding that missing part of lore between the old series and the new one.

Series 5 was probably the best large-story arc out of the whole new series. The rest of Matt Smith's run was kind of weak. Seemed like Series 6 and 7 were too focused on the large-story arc (River Song, Clara) which were largely uninteresting and didn't warrant being the sole focus of the show. I also feel like there were stronger single episodes under Tennant during Russel T Davies's run (coincidentally most those episodes were written by Moffat): The Girl in the Fireplace, Blink, Midnight, The Waters of Mars..

I gave Torchwood a try.. couldn't make it past the 2nd season

Yeah, Dr. Who is my culture behemoth. My Dad has watched since it was top hats and huge scarves.

I've enjoyed when we sit down together and catch an episode [over Christmas we watched an episode where he was in a town somewhere outside time where he grew old, and the brunette chick back in 'reality' in the apartment had family over for, . . . Thanksgiving dinner I think].

But then I did catch every episode of Torchwood, so.

Ok I gave in, downloaded all of the classic series (reconstructed "lost" episodes included) and only have two more episodes of William Hartnell left.. Only around 700 or so left..

I had idea that I could care enough about Erika Christianson to feel so strongly when she asked Joel to not give up on her. God that was tough.

Then Max put the hammer DOWN on Hank, Sarah beat Hank out for a job by having a better personality [ie, adult Asbergers] and Hank tried to sell his ideas for the job as the better one than Sarah's [studio photo shoot versus location photo shoot], and Max told him his ideas weren't better because he lost the job. Two Aspies trying to help each other.


AND THEN perhaps my most unintentionally funny moment when Adam [Krause] started asking Kristina what they called that thing you bandage over an spurting artery

BECAUSE



BTW, that chick happened to be in this episode 100 lbs heavier and 10 years older, and Krause hasn't changed a bit. Amazing.

That reminds me, want to talk about deep,

Nate's funeral

'for he who is living in the light of God, the death of the carnal soul is a blessing' and the look on Nate's mom's face at that moment?!?!?

The death of the carnal soul is a blessing.
Regarding him, say neither bad nor good,
For he is gone beyond the good and the bad.
Fix your eyes on God and do not talk about what is invisible,
So that he may place another look in your eyes.
It is in the vision of the physical eyes
That no invisible or secret thing exists.
But when the eye is turned toward the Light of God
What thing could remain hidden under such a Light?
Although all lights emanate from the Divine Light
Don't call all these lights "the Light of God";
It is the eternal light which is the Light of God,
The ephemeral light is an attribute of the body and the flesh.
...Oh God who gives the grace of vision!
The bird of vision is flying towards You with the wings of desire.

That show might have had an EPIC finale, but that scene was superior, IMO.

Nice to see that Bunny Colvin has been promoted to Chubby Tabby Colvin.
