Hi everybody!

Sir, you seem to have mistakenly place Smith higher than both Tennant AND Eccleston, as well as placing Eccleston higher than Tennant.
Surely, this was an oversight. Correct it promptly.

>3. Matt Smith
>4. Christopher Eccleston

01. David Tennant
02. Christopher Eccleston

rest are fags

I'd like to really get explained to me why some Doctors are just so hated, for example Colin Bakers. Could someone please do this?

Troughton is ridiculously underrated and that makes me sad.

Yeah, pretty much. Only Eccleston lower and McGann higher, he's judged way too much on the shitty script for the TV movie.

01. Tom Baker
02. Matt Smith
03. Patrick Troughton
04. Jon Pertwee
05. David Tennant
06. Christopher Eccleston
07. William Hartnell
08. Peter Davison
09. Sylvester McCoy
10. Paul McGann

9001. Colin Baker

>>9538072
Colin Baker was a badass Doctor. He was unstable, arrogant, but brilliant. He just had bad stories.

>06. David Tennant

such a god damn fucking troll post

he deserves top 3. i personally put him as my #1 but to eachs own

>>9538072

he's just a DANDY, in the worst possible meaning of the word

>>9538072
Are you an idiot or something?

>>9538110
OP here, I quite like Tennant actually but not everyone bums off him.

>>9538072
Colin Baker played the Doctor during the worst produced worst written era of any show ever on television. He also played the Doctor as a dick. He was supposed to be unstable and mellow out over his 2nd season, but it was never made because the ratings were so low they took a year off.

>Colin Baker wished to dress his Doctor in black, specifically black velvet, to reflect his character's darker personality. Producer John Nathan-Turner, however, opted for a deliberately tasteless costume with garish clashing colours (later described by Colin Baker as "an explosion in a rainbow factory").

I'm ok with OP's list. Although I haven't had the time to watch Pertwee I'll take his word for it.

Poor Tennant, his first two series were fantastic. Series 4 was ok. But then his specials were just terrible. Seriously fuck Davies for giving him such a horrible melodramatic regeneration.

>>9537950
It's much better to do tiers, you will never get people to agree to a list like this.

For example why the Davidson hate?

So, after all these answers, it's not really Colin Baker people have something against, but pretty much everything else?

Colin Baker actually played a pretty decent Doctor, but the writing staff raped him into oblivion.

Similarly, Tennant would probably be #1 if he hadn't had RTD as head writer for his stint.

>>9538192
I wouldn't call series 3 of New Who fantastic personally, it had some great episodes and some that were pretty meh.

>>9538192
Waters of Mars was great, and his 1st season was his was his worst. In that it had the fewest great episodes.

>>9538202
You're equating a low ranking with hate.

There are only eleven spots. Somebody's got to be on the bottom.

>>9538192
I had no problems with his regeneration, because it was different than everybody else's.

You mad? You mad.

>>9538229
>Waters of Mars was great

>>9538211
He didn't help. He overacted really badly (seriously makes Tennant look like Marlon Brando by comparison).

>>9538229
His first had the least great episodes but I think it was the most solid one starring him. Whereas at times the later ones were pretty inconsistent to say the least.

>>9538269
You may be right, I only worry about the good episodes when thinking about seasons because they're the only ones I'll rewatch.

>>9538202
God tier:
Baker, Pertwee, Hartnell

Good tier:
Eccleston, Tennant, Smith (potentially god tier), Davison, Troughton

Ok tier:
McCoy, McGann

Shit tier:
The other Baker

>>9538228
>>9538229
You two have a point. I like early Tennant because he was still being lighthearted and an overall cool doctor. And Waters of Mars was good until the ending where he went from being pompous ass to whining that he can't change the future to his full liking.

>>9538321
This is better.

Don't think Hartnell should be god tier though.

>>9538354

Yeah, Hartnell is high tier at best.

I can't really compare the classic Doctors with the new ones, the shows themselves are just too different, and I'm too biased to the new ones.
Classic Series
>Patrick Troughton
>Peter Davison
>Tom Baker
>John Pertwee
>William Hartnell
>Sylvester McCoy
>Paul McGann
>Colin Baker
New Series
>Smith
>Eccleston/Tennant tied, don't make me choose

>03. Matt Smith

No.

Just no.

>>9538462
More like YES

Paul McGann sucked?

>>9538253
It was an utterly stupid regeneration dude, it's as if Davies completely forgot the basics of Doctor Who.

When the Doctor regenerates he regenerates, that's it. For the Doctor it's like pulling off a band-aid. He doesn't start sobbing "I DON'T WANNA GO!", no sad bullshit goodbyes. Tennant acted like the Doctor was really dieing, visiting his friends for the last time, and that doesn't make a lick of sense.

01. Tom Baker
02. Matt Smith
03. Jon Pertwee
04. David Tennant
05. Patrick Troughton
06. Peter Davison
07. Christopher Eccleston
08. Colin Baker
09. William Hartnell
10. Sylvester McCoy
11. Paul McGann

This was kinda tough as I like them all in some way or another.

>people implying Smith is a better doctor than Eccleston/Tennant despite not having a single challenging episode so far

Seriously, how the fuck do you rate him higher when he has yet to have a single episode outside of his comfort zone? And after what, half a series?

>>9538497
Did you ever see the movie? It sucked hard.

His audio dramas are badass though.

>>9538503
It's a bit more than than a bandaid. I remember Troughton throwing a fit and refusing to choose his face, and Tom Baker created the Watcher to prepare for his regeneration.

You are now aware that Matt Smith has yet to make an episode even half as moving as Tennant was during the Waters of Mars episode.

And that isn't even his best episode.

I wish I could stab you Smith fanboys in the fucking face sometimes.

>>9538512
You're kind of having it both ways. If you can say Eccleston is better than Smith when he had only one season, I can say Smith is better than Eccleston unless he suddenly becomes awful for his remaining episodes.

Also, name episodes that you think show Eck and Tennant outside their comfort zones.

>>9538512
>breaks his promise to Amy
>almost kills Star Whale
>Daleks get away
>almost raped by Amy
>fails to save space fish
>gets his dark side revealed to his companions

>>9538576
Likewise to you Tennant fanboys.

>>9538576
It doesn't have to be a moving storyline for it to be an amazing episode.

>>9538576
Amy's Choice
The Beast Below
the speech at the end of Time Of Angels
the rooftop scene in The Eleventh Hour

all as moving/stirring/whatever as anything in The Waters Of Mars.

>>9538557
Yeah it's funny, McGann had the best Audio Dramas and Comics because those mediums no longer had to play second fiddle to the TV Show.

My nan left me loads of sci-fi/fantasy books and I think a couple of the McGann novels are in there. Maybe I should read them sometime.

>Matt Smith
>broad acting skill

Choose one.

Funny how those weren't mutually exclusive for the previous two doctors.

>>9538683
Time of Angels ending speech was weak and predictable and there wasn't much emotional drama especially considering how weak the cliffhanger was.

The rooftop scene was a little weak for me just seemed like a pale rehashing of Tennant.

I liked him at the end of Beast Below, event though it was a pretty weak episode.

He had some good emotion in his interplay with the dream lord, especially given the reveal at the end.

But damn the desperate mania of Tennant declaring himself essentially a god and then being crushed to despair and facing his mortality in the span of a few minutes was pretty amazing.

>>9538822
>David Tennant
>broad acting skill

lol oh you

>>9538847
Tennant can play a broad range, he just plays it bombastically. Which makes sense given his theater background.

>>9538576
I'm not yet a fan of Smith, he seemed to young when he was first cast. But I decided to give him a bit of a chance, and I've gotta say i'm warming up to him a bit. He's done a good job of being a bit of a cranky old man despite looking very young, and there seems to be something desperate about him to avoid loneliness while still trying to keep an emotional distance in Smith. Just my opinion though.

Troughton was forced to regenerate and there are apparently so many regenerations one can have so there is a reason to be upset. Also I don't think the Watcher was created by the Fourth Doctor.

Tennant just pissed me off because he was acting like Regeneration kills the Doctor. "I don't want to go!" Who the heck is going Doctor? You're just getting a new face.

>>9538896
That's one way of putting it. I would say he was great at either being really upbeat and eccentric or being really angsty and dark without usually offering much middle ground.

Whereas Smith's performance is more nuanced in the way he moves and delivers lines, and in the way he gives a more rounded portrayal in general, which personally I think comes closer to broad acting skill than Tennant in the role.

>>9538833

I do agree that we haven't seen Matt Smith do anything as challenging or impressive as the best Tennant moments yet. It's very early in his run, though.

Any one of these lists that does not have Tom Baker as #1 is blasphemy, though. Man, what a Doctor.

Switch Tennant and Smith OP.

>>9538946
I'm not disputing that Tennant's regeneration was over played by about a mile, just that other Doctor's took it like pulling off a bandaid.

I heard McGann did a lot of cool audio plays.

Matt Smith better than David Tennant? Pffft.

>>9538946
>Who the heck is going Doctor?
RTD.

>>9538833

I agree the ending of Water of Mars was a brilliant moment for Tennant but he's had 4 (well 3 and specials) series to achieve that. I think we will get similar moments as Smith goes on: when he thought he had to kill the star whale I sympathized with him a lot

>>9538946
I kinda get the feeling that its one of those things like a 7 year old getting a shot, it terrifies them a bit leading up to it but after the fact its not so bad.

Regeneration could go terribly wrong, and he does change, but once he's through it its not bad and you can treat it with some levity.

>>9538946

I totally agree and I hate the "regeneration is dying" crap, no it's not. But then, the "I don't want to go" is really RTD and maybe Tennant himself speaking and that scene only works on a meta level as them and the related cast (and some crew probably) saying goodbye to their audience. Thinking of it that way, the scene was OK.

>09. Sylvester McCoy

>My Face

>>9538602
Space WHALE.

>>9538973
Baker gets considered the best because he's the one most old series fans started with and for years was the only one they had. Its the same with Tennant and the new series. Both of their tenures brought the most new fans to the show, and they're iconic for it. Its entirely possible to like another Doctor more, though most are always partial to their first.

Also Pertwee=Troughton>Baker

NewWho needs to do something badass like The Deadly Assassin, where a good 15% of the serial was just Tom Baker being rugged and hardcore, whilst being hunted in a jungle by a sniper. There was blood, poison darts, everything.

>06. David Tennant

>>9539056
It makes sense that to begin with in The End Of Time he was apprehensive about facing the Master and the Time Lords because, if I'm not mistaken, he thought he might actually die full stop at first. It's just that he carried it on after realising he was regenerating.

Yeah, I never really understood why 10 was so sad about regenerating. Like dude, you're coming back. chill.

>>9539139
So its the James Bond effect eh?

>>9537950

For a second, I thought you said "Best Director" and I was like 'WTF I DON'T EVEN...!" But then I was like "Oh wait..."

>>9539062
Its the same with Time Crash, the ending dialogue between Ten and Five is really about Tennant talking to his hero, Davison.

Here's one thing we can all agree on. The New Logo is awesome. Whoever thought of making a D and W form a Tardis deserves a raise.

>>9539179
Except everyone knows Connery is the best Bond, just like everyone knows Tom Baker is the best Doctor. So guess it is the same effect?

>>9539210
>Whoever thought of making a D and W form a Tardis deserves to be fired
FUCK THAT DW.

FUCK IT.

EVERY TIME I SEE IT I CANNOT TAKE IT SERIOUSLY

DO YOU KNOW WHY?

CLICK THE FUCKING SPOILER IMAGE

>>9539194

Yeah, exactly. The line "You were my Doctor" makes no sense in-show. But I don't give a damn; I found that moment really touching, I teared up, and the goodbye to the fans was really touching, too.

>>9539242
wat

>>9539210
The new logo is shit.
The old new logo is shit too.
There was only one great one.

>>9539210

Doctor DW Who.

>>9539139
>>9539179
Eccleston was my first Doctor and he isn't my favourite, also Moore was my first Bond and he isn't my favourite

>>9539281
No connery was the best bond there is no relativity to that.

>>9539210
Bahaha, I had the same thought. I wondered why it took them 47 years to think that one up.

hell ya tom baker was win

>>9539114
I just want to give him a hug and for him to be my borderline evil machiavellian granddad.

>>9539259
There is a difference between a 10 minute special most people didn't even see and the fucking regeneration scene that everyone will remember their whole lives.

>>9539242

Well, I think of a very different DW, so...

First doctor was best doctor.

So shut up you Chestertons.

>>9539313
Riveting tale chap.

>The Doctor tells Wilf that he has taken lives in the past, and that he "got clever, manipulated people into taking their own." This may be a reference to his seventh incarnation, who often talked his enemies into taking their own lives.

wat

>>9537950
interesting list... but do you really think colin baker belongs on the list at all?

actually I take that back, colin baker was an excellent doctor. he was just an asshole is all and everybody loves an asshole. we need a george patton doctor soon.

>>9539347
EVERYONE WILL REMEMBER THEIR WHOLE LIVES!!!!

That's a bit of an overstatement if I e'er heard one.

>>9539370
I love Dalton too, but Connery was the best.

repost

>>9539383
Yes, maybe you've heard of hyperbole? It's a rhetorical device.

>>9539371
He talked the villain in Ghost Light into killing himself.
>>9539351
>SHUT UP CHESTERFIELD

>>9539242
>DW
>Dominic West
>Mcnulty

That just makes me like it more.

>>9539370
Did someone call for Lazenby?

>people complaining about the most recent regeneration

HE THOUGHT THAT HE WOULDN'T FUCKING REGENERATE, IS THAT SO FUCKING HARD TO UNDERSTAND?

>>9539421
He also tricked Davros into using the Hand of Omega, blowing himself up.

>>9539375
also this should be the next doctor who

>>9539412
Yeah, but not usually a constructive one to use in honest debate.

>>9539443
>>9539421
That's kinda badass.

>>9539370
Dalton was the most badass, there is a difference.

>>9539445
That's not Michael Sheen

>>9538503

I remember when Sylvester McCoy came onto the scene, and came across some people he met in the past and everyone was just like "oh" when he said he regenerate. The second doctor did get some surprised companions when he changed, but most doctors just came out of their regenerations without anyone really caring.

This new trend of acting like the old regeneration is dying sucks.

>>9539443
>Blowing himself and the entirety of Skaro up
McCoy didn't fuck around.

>>9539491
meh I like it, adds a little bit of drama to what is really just a tool to allow the show to outlast actors.

>>9539210
Best Doctor Who Logo:

Poor Colin Baker, even his logo was terrible.

>>9539428
The next Doctor? I think so

>>9539549

It adds unnecessary drama. The doctor isn't dying, his face is just changing and his personality getting a makeover. He doesn't stop dealing with his companions so the goodbyes just don't make sense.

William Hartnell was also just a badass that needs more respect.

you guys don't give mcgann's doctor enough credit

he was actually pretty good
and not to mention, he's the longest serving doctor

>>9539602
that picture is a gay orgy waiting to happen.

wat

>>9539698
Technically he was, as he was officially the Doctor from whenever it was that he was announced up until 2004 when Eccleston was announced.

>>9539602
I require this without the text.

>>9539698

he's not canon

>>9539776
Where'd you get them?

>>9539687

Well for timelords it is normal and he already went through many without any fuss. So having him act so strangely now is just weird.

>>9539776
Do it faggot.

I think someone found them on deviant art, but I got them from /tv/.
