I started watching "Doctor Who" with the Peter Cushing movie that I saw in High School. Although it's not canon, it's based on the story of the First Doctor's meeting with the Daleks. Instead of the Time Lord we're familiar with, it featured a human scientist named Dr. Who. Still, it got my attention.
My first introduction proper into the series was during the 1970s with the Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) and I was immediately a fan. I eventually saw all of the classic Doctors in action except for the First (William Hartnell) and Second (Patrick Troughton) since they didn't run their episodes on television where I was living. Of all of the Classic Doctors, the Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker) is my favorite. The movie featuring The Eighth Doctor got my interest back into the series and it was unfortunate that the series didn't continue.
When the series returned with The Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston) I was interested again and found him to be an outstanding Doctor and a great one to resume the series. I haven't seen much of The Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) (yet) but I like what I've seen and ditto the way Matt Smith has taken on the role as The Eleventh Doctor. For me both "The Day Of The Doctor" and "The Time Of The Doctor" were outstanding and left me wanting more.
