Classic Who~What I've Seen

Jan 07, 2014 18:40

Let's just say I have been watching a lot more Classic Who recently. At the moment I've been mostly delving into the 2nd Doctor & a bit of the 1st Doctor. Although I've seen quite a bit of the 3rd and 4th as well.

If you ask me if I like Classic who or New Who better I am not sure how I would reply. You see I realized I like early Classic Who (up to the 4th Doctor) & New Who but I am not to keen on late Classic Who (from the 5th Doctor on). I think I am just not very fond of the 80's, except for the 80's I specifically grew up with and enjoy from nostalgia lol.

Anyways here is the list of what I saw or what I have but have not watched yet (in italics)


1st Doctor Serials Companions Ian, Barbara, Susan, Vicki, Steven, Polly, Ben, Dodo (briefly)

Unearthly Child- Only the 1st episode, I wanted to see how it all began. while this is a 4 part story but the 1st episode is a good stand alone.
The Daleks
The Aztecs
The Dalek Invasion of Earth
The Romans
The Time Meddler
The War Machines
The Tenth Planet
The Massacre of St. Bartholomew Eve- Audio Only

2nd Doctor Serials Companions Polly, Ben, Jamie, Victoria, Zoe

The Faceless Ones Audio Only, have 2 orphan episodes to watch as well.
The Abominable Snowmen- Audio and Novel
The Evil of the Daleks- Reading Novel, have audio
Fury from the Deep Audio Only
The Wheel in Space- Audio Only, plus two orphan episodes
* For the audio only serials I am also watching certain scenes reconstructed on youtube, such as the 2nd Doctor's regeneration in Power of the Daleks.

Never thought I'd be listening to Doctor Who audio but some stories I just really am curious about & sadly for some great stories audio is all there is (or audio with still shots).

3rd Doctor Companions Liz, Jo, Sarah Jane, & Unit

Spearhead from Space
Terror of the Autons- 1st Master appearance and 1st Classic Who I actually saw
Time Warrior- Sarah Jane's 1st Appearance ♥
Inferno
The Daemons
The Three Doctors
The Green Death

Not the whole episode but I also watched when 3 became 4

4th Doctor Sarah Jane, Harry, Romana II (I've seen a lot of the 4th Doctor but only a few of his companions), soon Leela

Robot
The Ark in Space
The Sontaran Experiment
Genesis of the Daleks
Terror of the Zygons
Pyramid of Mars
The Android Invasion (possibly, I am not 100% sure about this one)
The Seeds of Doom
The City of Death
The Pirate Planet
The Talons of Weng Chiang
Horror of Fang Rock

Not the whole episode but I also watched Sarah Jane's departure in the Hand of Fear

5th Doctor Companions: Peri

The Caves of Androzani- This is actually the 5th Doctor's last appearance so I also saw the regeneration of 6th

I started to watch Earth Shock but honestly I got bored in the 1st episode. Maybe I will get back to it before it goes off Comcast On Demand. I do know who Adric is now though.

6th Doctor: Peri

The Two Doctors

7th Doctor- Ace

Remembrance of the Daleks
Ghostlight
Curse of Fenric

So there you have it, I have definitely seen the most of Four & Two. It's not necessarily because I favor Four & two (although I do love Baker and Troughton) but I've mainly watch for Sarah Jane & Jamie. So yeah Jamie joins Sarah Jane as one of my absolute favorite Doctor Who companions. I've also grown quite fond of Victoria, Harry, Ian, & Barbara. I enjoy what I saw of Romana II, Zoe, Polly, & Ben as well but I feel I haven't seen enough of them to form a strong opinion yet.

City of Death & Genesis of the Daleks still remain my two favorite Doctor Who serials but I am looking forward to The Power of Daleks & The Evil of the Daleks which I have heard very good things about.

Oh and the Brig I love the Brig, but who the hell doesn't? :)

edit: I think I can honestly say Two is now my favorite Doctor and Jamie my favorite companion. Probably the only Doctor I made the effort to see as much as I can (including the lost serials) whereas with other Doctors I was content on seeing the best.

But as I said in another post Sarah Jane Smith is still one of my favorite characters and companions. She was my first love. :)
