Doctor Who

[bigmamag]

Can someone recommend the absolute best episodes, perhaps one or two? I just finished watching the first one, 'Rose', and, well, I thought it was stupid. I don't want to judge an entire show based on one episode, though, so this is why I'm asking for the best. Is this episode even considered good to fans or is this akin to judging all of Star Trek

well no one like Nine too much, but he have good episodes specially when jack came aboard the tardis

Ten is my absolutely favorite Doctor!!, i think 11 is a bit childish and naive,but everybody else seams to like him and Amy is great!

maybe is a good idea start with the ten doctor or start in the first season and the nine doctor with "the empty child" because Jack is just so fun!!

also good idea is too check out this info
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_Who#Characters

specially adversaries and companions so you have an idea

if you want to start with tenth

( i love the intensity, the conflict and the passion of ten)

the first christmas special is the start, i particularly love all episodes of tenth
he has 4 companions:
Rose
Jack
Martha
Donna (Donna i my favorite ever) and her grandfather is awesome and cute, and he have a great part at the end of tenth.

Blink is a great episode, but for me at least it is difficult to pick only one
but maybe
"Planet of the Dead" that is good and Colin from Merlin act in it!! could be one you like is a desert planet, a bus arrive there by dimension accident and something or someone wants to finish them all. Tenth is alone in that special
so it could be good for a start

Donna start in "the runaway bride"

the worse episodes for me are the ones with the cybermen

and the 11 doctor, is like cute, but no so whole as tenth and he has
two companions

Amy (amy is really good character)
Rory

One thing you must understand about doctor who is that the most of adversaries are the same from the 60's so they look cheap as hell, but you forgive it!

I watched "New Earth", and it was all right, but "Blink" was fantastic, so I'm definitely looking to watch a few more suggested in this post. :D

I told another commenter this, but the campiness is sort of odd for me. See, Star Trek TOS was campy because it was the 60's, so you can forgive that, and it had a very small budget, so they had to use cheap stuff (like making a spacesuit from a shower curtain in "The Naked time") but even then ST sort of redeems itself and KNOWS it's silly because in the episode "Operation--Annilhilate!" a crewman remarks "they don't even look real!" at those one-celled flying pancake parasites. To me, it's almost inexcusable that a tv show in the 2000's would look that campy, even with borrowing enemies from the 60's tv show. To me Star Trek reboot works because it updates what's already there, and not resurrecting Hortas to fight. (though oh my god, I would love to see Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto fight against a Horta.)
