Sorry guys classic who memes are hard to find. Anyway I am planning on watching the fifth Doctor some day.
GermanSausageIsTheWurst
I feel old if the Tenth Doctor and Donna are considered classic Who

The Eighth Doctor wasn't ginger. He was just sort of... brown.

Davison (5th) was my doctor and still my favourite. I have his number on my car license plate. Still go back and watch the old classics

Except the screwdriver didn't appear until the 4th Doctor, and is overused IMO. Not just mine, the writers purposely broke it a long timeago
MalisVitterfolk
I started with 4th during re-runs on the BBC when I was a kid. Remembered them fondly but wasn't a fan of 9th until I came back to watch
MalisVitterfolk
them later on after finishing 10th's run. I now love almost all the new seasons/Doctors, each has brought their own spin on the story (2/3)
MalisVitterfolk
I am especially excited for Ms. Whittaker to take the helm and it'll be fun to see where the new stories go! (3/3)

#5: Tardis: THERE'S A SPECIFIC ROOM WHERE YOU CAN REGENERATE SO PLEASE STOP EXPLODING IN MY CONTROL ROOM!
DanniLuxgarbe
The Zero Room is missing as of current. Attack Eyebrows jettisoned it with the Celestial Toymaker inside.
myr14d
I mean, literally every room would be a better room to regenerate in than the control room.
PianoMan2112
13 should make a room with fireproof walls & a sprinkler system, and mutter about the other idiots as she crawls in to regenerate.

I haven't been able to watch Dr. Who ever since Netflix removed it. I feel so lost.

Website: Twitch tv! They're on #5 now! Monday thru Friday.

Same here. The last I saw was The Wedding of River Song, I believe.
Hutchy01
How does wardrobe hear that request and come back with Liberace's clown outfit?
Onlyhereforthelaughs
When I first saw Matt Smith as the Doctor I hadn't seen the regeneration, so it's just him landing in a garden wanting fish fingers.
Onlyhereforthelaughs
And custard. Character limit. Anyway, VERY jarring. Went back and saw the regen, and suddenly he was okay. He was the Doctor again.
dissociativeidentitydisorder
fish fingers and custard is oddly nice
dissociativeidentitydisorder
nice hummus and pink wafers

You've.. tried it..? You are a bold one
DeathByVanilla
You're in for a treat. Well, a tempered, salty treat. With sensible portions.
Phoenixfighter43
Fish sticks and custard anybody?
ImpizzahutwelcometoEvan
Jon Pertwee is my favourite Dr for reasons I have never been able to fully ascertain.
TheAngryMarineBiologist
He's the most heroic and serious Doctor with the most consistently good run of episodes of any of the Doctors by far, makes sense to me
jesusedgarhoover
It's because he's so completely amazeballs in every way.
bestofallpossibleworlds
Because he's a grandfatherly James Bond-esque scientist. And that's awesome.

An alien menace that isn't immune to bullets? Either there are a hell of a lot of them or they aren't very menacing, now are they?
RedDwarfIV
You know what annoys me? How the only time anyone aims for a dalek's eyestalk is when they have a paintball gun.
RedDwarfIV
Like, the Doctor specifically says "shoot for the dome, the eyepiece, thats the weak spot" but Satellite 5 management only got one of them.

The one show in history that proves time and again that you don't need a giant budget and CGI, just really good writers and a story.

A Classic Doctor Who dump on imgur? This is christmas...
FallingStar7669
It better not be! Something terrible always happens on Christmas!
Dratias
As someone whohas never watched this before and am highly curious,where should I start?At the beginning of the show or at a specific doctor?
wonderbug
you need to go back in time and watch all the episodes they're currently showing on twitchpresents...
TheImgurianWhoSendsFriendlyAndFunnyMessagesToOtherImgurians
Start from the reboot if you don't like cheesy stuff, otherwise start from the very start, and skip everything Moffat has done.
EggsaretheDevil
Well the ultimate timelord treat would be to start with the last episode and watch the whole thing backwards!
Theman098
Okay river.
DrCryptid
My friend started at the end of Tennant and got hooked. So the End of Time(s) were good
TheAngryMarineBiologist
Depends what your preferences are. Wanna see everything and don't mind old TV? Start at the beginning with 'An Unearthly Child', 1/?
TheAngryMarineBiologist
Don't like Black and White but want to see the classics? 'Spearhead from Space' works as a jumping on point. Want something a bit more 2/?
TheAngryMarineBiologist
Modern? 'Rose' is the start of the new show. Want something less dated than 2005 and with less silly campiness? "The Eleventh Hour" 3/3
monojoker
You know twitch tv is currently streaming every doctor who episode in order and they’ve just started on the fifth doctor :)

if you need permission to do things you probably shouldn't be on imgur.

Well the ones theyve got, I'm fairly sure some are still like, actually lost.
FatherElongatedAppendages
I know especially the first few episodes.
jesusedgarhoover
1) Classic Who fact. Four of the original Doctors never used the sonic screwdriver, and tow hardly used it at all. Only three and four used
jesusedgarhoover
2) it consistently, and Matt Smith used the sonic more times in the first five minutes of Rings of Akhaten than Pertwee did in 2 seasons.
TheAngryMarineBiologist
It was destroyed in 'The Visitation' because JNT believed it had become a lazy Deus Ex Machina for the writers that could do anything 1/?
TheAngryMarineBiologist
Though it wasn't nearly as bad during RTD and Moffat's eras (especially RTD's where it basically turned into a magic wand) 2/2
jesusedgarhoover
That and the psychic paper. I preferred when the Doctor had to charm, bully and bluff his way through via great dialogue
TheAngryMarineBiologist
The 7th Doctor run is particularly great since it doesn't rely on the Sonic Screwdriver or Tardis very much, just quick wit and intelligence
Snooj
That third quote in #9 is funny because he very much one time did commit genocide.
RedDwarfIV
Its also funny because its just as wrong as the Batman quote. The Daleks are the aggressors.
TheAngryMarineBiologist
'One time', he did it dozens of times throughout the series. Not even counting the retconned Time War bollocks
Dominiricanish
Did he tho?
Areliae
Yes, the thing you mention DID NOT happen. It's stupid.
Snooj
Yes. If memory serves, he was on trial for meddling too much in the timeline and the proof he used that his interference was acceptable 1-
Snooj
ended up also showing that he killed a couple plant creatures threatening humans which turned out to be the last of their kind. 2-2
Dominiricanish
Oh damn! I thought you were referring to the whole time lord situation. Thanks for the info
Esch2
That was the 6th Doc right?
Snooj
Saw the whole series (up to McCoy) on PBS about 20 years ago. I *think* it was Tom Baker but I'm not positive.
Esch2
I remember Colin Baker being on trial, and that was actually the point I started liking that Doc. Just can't remember why he was on trial.
Zorbaq
Haven't seen a single episode of Dr Who. Is it really that good? Where should I start?
VerityCarlo
Literally anywhere but the second of a two parter. It wont make any less sense than it does already but you'll still love it.
TheImgurianWhoSendsFriendlyAndFunnyMessagesToOtherImgurians
Start from the reboot if you don't like cheesy stuff, otherwise start from the very start, and skip everything Moffat has done.
bestofallpossibleworlds
Or start with Troughton. Hartnell's stuff is very dated, still rooted in the desire to provide somewhat educational programming. It's (1)
bestofallpossibleworlds
(2) good in its own way, and is obviously the spark for an amazing legacy, but the later stuff is better.
higherbelow
Don't skip Moffat. You will miss "Blink." That's one of the best hours of television ever made imo.
TheImgurianWhoSendsFriendlyAndFunnyMessagesToOtherImgurians
Ok, i should have written "Skip everything that was showrunned my Moffat".
wonderbug
the biggest thing you'll need to take away is the lack of money for sets, actors and post production. plus the years it was made.
bassclarinetl2
Which is what makes it awesome.
VerityCarlo
I personally recommend starting with either Baker or Eccleston, or perhaps the movie.
DnDInsanity
Definitely NONE of the movies to start. I recommend something in the rebooted episodes. Tennant is well loved, Eccleston is also great.
NotASecretAgent
Is there more movies than Shada and the 1996 one with Paul Mcgann?
DnDInsanity
Doctor Who and the Daleks (1965), Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 ('66). Both starred Peter Cushing. 1st movie is better than 2nd, but still...
