I use to watch it. I've never seen the new episodes of it.

I'm very unusual, my favorite Doctor was 7, Sylvester McCoy /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />

McCoy was a good Doctor, I even have a few of his Episodes on DVD. I know of a few people on the Sci-Fi/Doctor Who boards who list Sylvester McCoy as their favorite.

My least favorite Doctor was Colin Baker, but I think his lack of success was mainly due to bad writing.

I had his Episodes on DVD (the ones that were available), lost them in a Fire though last year.

My 2nd favorite Doctor is William Hartnell /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' /> – old school Doctor /wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I get a lot of flack for admitting I was never a huge fan of Tom Baker /unsure.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' />

I'm not sure why I've never watched the new series. I may have to check it out /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

Nothing wrong with McCoy.

I think the reason Tom Baker was my favorite at the time was because

1. He was my initial exposure to the show.

2. PBS played the hell out of his run until the show was eventually canceled.

Sorry to hear about the fire BTW.

As for me, if MK's house is burning down, the last thing I will do is chuck my small collection of Doctor Who DVD's out the back door.

I always picture myself running around during a fire and saving worthless **** when I should be more worried about my own life.

I think the reason I DON'T like Tom Baker is because PBS played the hell out his episodes /laugh.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':o' />

I got sick of it.

As for the fire, I always knew what I would do if there was a fire. I would

save my children, my pets, grab the strong box with all the important papers

and the box of pictures.

When the real fire happened, I got my kids out, grabbed the strong box

and got out. My oldest ran back into the house to try to save the cats

and had to be dragged out. I never even thought about my pictures.

In the end one cat died, one cat survived, my pics actually made it

because the fire didn't get to the room they were in. Lost almost

everything else though. But most important I didn't lose my children,

in the end that's all that matters.

Doctor Who became cool for me (back in the 80's) as soon as I found out Douglas Addams was a writer on the show. I've watched it off and on but I really liked the recent episodes. I'm a bit behind though and haven't watched since last Christmas.

I have seen all of the available episodes from the beginning and have them on VHS, DVD and on hard drive. esp the last four seasons and the specia;s this year.

Considering that I invested in UK formatted materials and playback devices, y0u might say I am kinda hooked.

I started in the 80s with Tom Baker. but my favorite is Jon Pertwee, the third Doctor.

At the time, the PBS station in Phoenix played thru the Baker era and then proceeded thru the rest of the series, as available, in sequence. When Lionheart, the BBC co, raised the licensing prices the episodes evaporated like water under the AZ sunl

I saw a few episodes 0f the classic series on BBCA, but decided t0 get the entire series before it disappeared and so hunted thru the various EBAY adds untill I had them all.

Needless to say, I still watch the Doctor whenever the mood strikes me.
