I have that! I have one of those “formula” shampoos/conditioners where you state your needs and they formulate it for you. I think I probably need a leave-in. Sigh. If only my stylist wasn’t booked up completely.

Nice! If you can get your hands on them, I definitely recommend the Loose Cannon recons. Very much worth it. Harder to find now that most of the fans who made them now do work directly with the BBC.

Blink is amazing, but it does require some pre-knowledge. And it’s “Doctor-light,” which doesn’t help.

That’s fair. I’d say give it until the end of the season, and if it doesn’t work, it’s ok.

Yeah, there’s a lot of Gallifrey stuff and “lore” baked into that episode. Don’t know how new watcher friendly it is!

Oh, Lala was amazing; I’m sorry she had to put up with Dawkins as long as she did! 😉 (I used to joke that it was the only thing I envied him for.)

He (and Barry and Terrance) basically saved it. The ratings were terrible during Pat’s last series and it was on the verge of being cancelled. Honestly, another fantastic story to show people is “Ark in Space,” assuming they don’t just laugh at bubble wrap technology.

Yeah, 11th hour works as a great intro episode; it explains the show’s core concepts quickly and coherently.

As a writer as well, I’m not sure that idea works well for this show. It’s very unique in that it’s ever changing….and its sense of continuity is even more nonexistent than early Star Trek. I don’t know as there has been one way it was intended, except in the minds of each showrunner in the 21st c.

…point, rather than a sampling. If it’s just a sampling, I’d probably pick a Tom Baker story, maybe Pyramids of Mars, or, if they like the funny aspects more, “City of Death.” (The latter was the one I most often suggested as a “taste” before 2005.)

Depends. For the 21st century series, “Rose,” “The Eleventh Hour,” “The Woman who Fell to Earth,” or “The Church on Ruby Road” would all work as great starting points, depending on what the person might like. For the 20th c series, “Spearhead From Space” is pretty perfect if you want a starting…

…a different feel, for the most part, and those changes carry on for the rest of RTD’s run. I liked Eccleston’s season, generally, but….yeah. In retrospect, it’s kind of rough.

….person watching. Like, “The Eleventh Hour” was, essentially, a new start for the series. As was the first Jodie Whittaker story, as was this past year’s Christmas special. But the 2005 season has a lot of rough edges, thanks to the pressure of the revival, and it really shows. Season 2 has…

Well, I, a silly person, would say that “Rose” is coming in 26 seasons late! But there are as many opinions as there are Doctor Who fans. The interesting thing about the show is it really does recreate itself again and again, so it’s hard to get a firm good starting point, depending on the….
