No, sorry, no. When it comes to really fucking obvious jokes, even i can't finish saying that one.

Haha. People tore through the obvious jokes and puns in the comments on that site.

Yeah, thought as much. It's just so..."WTF?!?" There's a difference between an adult enjoying something from or based on a children's show like the usual case in Who merchandise, and there's an adult enjoying something that's friggin' based on a children's show! Yep, definitely too strange for my fan brain!

Weird. Too weird for me this early in the morning. Of course, I don't know what I expected, clicking on a NSFW link....?
Because, unsurprisingly, the discussion between me, Pond and Melike was getting just a little bit off topic, I've decided to continue it here.
Yeah, one thing I do enjoy about the show is that it is one of those shows you can watch out of order and still get a ton of enjoyment out of it. This is especially true of the classic series (well, as long as you watched the whole serial of a story from beginning to end, anyway). But, although the finale to series 3 isn't exactly one of the best, it's still one I really enjoy, with ten minutes of it making me go, "OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG". It's definitely one of those stories that, unlike Blink, it does help to have watched the eps of the previous eps of the season beforehand.Originally Posted by Melike
Oh, ok, thanks for telling that. I don't want to spoil it, because in general big story is the best.Ok, sweet! Will aim to get season 2 asap, then!
Well, feel free to watch Blink, but make sure to watch HM/FoB before the final 3 eps of the season, at least. It's not just a really powerful story, it's also a bit of a big one.I will be back to them, I just took an early look at Blink. Way too much curious of it. But now I want to skip it, and go back to Human Nature.

Out of the finales, I'd say it's probably still the series 1 finale The Parting of the Ways, just because it had everything:Spoiler:This would be followed by The Big Bang, for being a wonderfully epic yet intimate resolution to all the threads of that series.
Favourite BIG stories of each season? It may have divided a lot of fans, but series 6 still comes out on top for me, followed by 5, with 3 coming afterwards. I just loved the whole "Vote Saxon" buildup.
So, Melike, here's a question: out of the fans on this board, you're probably the most enthusiastic atm, after me and Pond, of course. So how long have you been watching the show, then?
Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.
You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me. - Melike
In between which series are the fans divided? 6 and 5?
Ending of The Parting of The Ways is epic; fantastic. But also sad.
I love Doomsday a lot. Cyberman vs Daleks. Lots of funny moments.
Not sure exactly but I think I am watching it since January. Quite new. My excitement is huge because of this maybe.
I have watched the first episode of the season 1 with Eccleston before, when you had recommended me two or three years ago. DO you remember that?But I couldn't get into the show. Now I see the reason. I love that episode now, but it is not a good one to start with. Feels childish when you do not know the back story.
Anyway, last January I watched The Time of the Angels by coincidence. Not only because of Matt Smith's eccentric Doctor; but because of The Wheeping Angels I just sucked in. Antagonists are the most interesting parts of a story.
Then I watched season 6 in one and a half day.
Mainly with 6. A lot, including myself, enjoyed the more complex arcs and character development, but a lot also hated it as seeing it as too convuluted and that some of the standalone eps suffered. Like I said, I really loved 6. I do have a couple of problems with it,Spoiler:but overall I loved it, it's one of my favourite seasons of the show.
Agreed on both. (Even if it's not the "real" Cybermen that the DaleksEnding of The Parting of The Ways is epic; fantastic. But also sad.
I love Doomsday a lot. Cyberman vs Daleks. Lots of funny moments.fightpwn.) A nice big story. I'll be interested in your thoughts on the series 3 finale. I wasn't sure at first, but it has grown on me over time.
I do remember that actually, i think that's why I was surprised that it's only recently you've been showing a lot of love for the show with your sig/av. Yeah, I'll agree that the very early eps of series 1 did come across as a little childish in tone, which is why when I want people to get interested in the show now, I tell them series 5 is the best place to start. It's as much a clean start for the show as series 1 was, with a new Doctor, new TARDIS, new companions, and even new style, but it also kicks off with a much better episode. Can't tell you how much I adore The Eleventh Hour. The first ep of series 1, Rose, that I'm still fond of, as it was the first brand new ep I had watched for 9 years, but I can definitely see how it can be offputting to new viewers of the show.Not sure exactly but I think I am watching it since January.

Very impressive! And yes, I love Time of Angels. Massive fan of that one. It's easily in my all time top 10 favourite Who stories ever, with its horror atmosphere, mix of excellent standalone story while really pushing the main arc forward, and Matt Smith at his very best, I think. I wasn't surprised to learn that was the first story they filmed with him as the Doctor, as it allowed him to just jump in, define who his Doctor was, and then go back later and blend in some Tennant in his performance for the earlier eps.Anyway, last January I watched The Time of the Angels by coincidence.

Wheeping Angels are amazing in the idea. You know I recently saw Blink; so I didn't know
Wheeping Angels
I try to see episodes in the regular order, but still my Doctor Who timeline is complicated.
I have just met Tennant's Doctor and now I know why people are so in love with him. It must have been difficult for Smith. Pressure to be marvellous. And he did it. Moffat is also another success.
Absolutely! Tennant was a very good Doctor, really performed the role well. I love Smith's interpretation just a little bit more, because he does come across a lot more as an ancient alien trying to blend in and failing a lot of the time. Not quite my favourite - that would be McGann as the 8th, purely for his excellent portrayal of the character in the audio series (and, admittedly, the Doctor that drew me into the show) - but pretty close.
As for your complicated Who timeline, a lot of fans are like that, although it's more common with those who became fans of the classic series, particularly in the 90s. The BBC never released videos or dvds of the old serials in order, in fact they still don't, so back in my early days I was collecting whatever stories I could. One week I'd watch a story of the 3rd Doctor, then one from the 7th (a story so bad it was something like 7 years before I watched anything more of his incarnation, who has ironically become one of my favourite incarnations), then one from the 4th etc. Like I said, that's something I really do enjoy about the show, that you can watch them out of order and still be entertained, to a degree, anyway.
Oh, and as you mentioned both Blink and getting new fans on board: you'll be pleased to know that episode is the one I convinced Jean to watch, and he really enjoyed it! Now to get him to watch the rest of the show!

As soon as I finish season 3 and 4, I will be looking for the classic series. I want to know all of the incarnations.
Jean is watching The Doctor? Cool. It is a real success sir.
So, did Shizzie like The Time of The Angels? I have asked him but couldn't get the answer. Believe me if we get him to our side we will gain the power to upgrade the universe.
And... I think, people's first doctor becomes their favorite.

Jean's only watched Blink so far, and that was because it was standalone. I'm hoping he'll watch more eventually, though.As soon as I finish season 3 and 4, I will be looking for the classic series. I want to know all of the incarnations.Jean is watching The Doctor? Cool. It is a real success sir.

And yes, Fernando really enjoyed Time of Angels and Flesh and Stone. He also liked the first 2 eps of series 5, (hated Victory of the Daleks, though), but he's yet to watch more. Been watching it far too slowly, imo. He likes the show overall, but that's about it, unfortunatly. He's not keen enough to watch every ep. Shocking, I know.
And I think that your first Doctor is your favourite, that's true to an extent. It's really the first Doctor you watch of a story that you really enjoy I think that does it. Pertwee was the first I watched, but McGann was the first one I watched where I began to get what was going on. "Oh, so his spaceship is only DISGUISED as a phone box and is in fact much bigger on the inside? So it's not like Bill & Ted then!"
And don't worry: when you are all caught up, I'll be sure to give you more than a few recommendations, classic series wise!

Haha, Daleks are very irritating when you first see them. I hated them. How could they give us such useless things as evil? Antagonists are so important to me. But now I love them. They are the funny part of the show.When a Dalek talks like a hysterical woman, it is hillarious.
So you feel I should be on drugs and medicine?Yeah, I am.Yes, Melike is my first doctor.
Honestly, I am a huge dalek fan. I don't mean in a funny way, I mean in a serious way. I think they're brilliant, I'm just not sure why. I do think they are very much a product of their time, which may be one reason why the 60s stories (with the exception of the Chase) are some of the best. Another reason though is that those stories were so dark a lot of the time (again, with the exception of the Chase). That's why I think the series 1 stuff with Eccleston was some of the best of the new series, dalek wise. I think it's less them that are so cool and how, in their best stories, their sheer relentlessness really pushes humanity to its limits. At their best, they are truly brilliant creations.
And then they wrote Victory of the fucking Daleks!

Unfortunately I first met them in Victory of the Daleks. Cute and hysterical things. But you're right, back in the series they are more than that.Honestly, I am a huge dalek fan.

Just watched the season 3 finale. And... Wow. I mean, really... Wow.
Spoiler:
I know, right? Blew my mind!
'Tis a real pity about the intro to Daleks you had. I was lucky enough to see them first in all their nasty glory in the series 1 ep "Dalek." And that freaked me out. I still don't know if I LOVE them, per se, but they are notably better than a lot of the villains on this showSpoiler:
Well I thought they were really complex villains, Pond.
Spoiler:
I think I've only started to love the Daleks recently after not only watching/listening to their 60s stories, but also their spin-off Dalek Empire. Absolutely loved the first season of that. Hoping the rest of the series is good.
And I'm guessing you enjoyed the series 3 finale, Melike? What did you think ofSpoiler:I regularly rewatch those eps every so often really, just for John Simm's glorious performance alone.
