Alesh91: I think there is a Doctor Who adventure videogame. Not sure about the developer or publisher though, but it had a cartoonish look, similar to Telltale.
And there is some mobile games. For instance: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/doctor-who-legacy/id737628981?mt=8

That one's pretty good, too. And it's on Android as well. Also available from Amazon's Android store, and on Facebook if anyone for whatever insane reason fancies that.

jacobmarner: No please don't. I haven't seen the day of the doctor yet. I am only at season 19 of the classic series.
avatar
snowkatt: you will find out eventually then

things get a bit wobbely during season 19 though

and even more uneven with the 6th doctor
the trial of a timelord is a bloody mess
baker didnt come in to his own as the 6th untill the audiobooks and plays
and you do him a disservice by disregarding them ( for now maybe pick them up after your done with the videos ? )

the seventh is also a bit uneven
all though i like the happiness patrol
there is some sneering social commentary in there as well as particular scene i like a lot
I am still at the 5th doctor, Peter Davison. I think he is pretty good. Besides that my favorite so far is the third doctor Jon Pertwee. Tom Baker was too silly for my taste.

depends on the episode baker was magnificent in the ark in space and he elevated robot

i dont care much for pertwee's doctor
his first series ( season 7 ) is amazing one of the best seasons ever with each and ever story a winner ( if a bit long at times )
but after that the quality start to drop and for a lack of a better word it became campy


id rather watch throughton who is the most important doctor ever ( in my opinion ) he had to make the whole regeneration thing work
and had to convice everybody that he was indeed the doctor the same yet different
without him and his performance the series would have died

anyway
the 6th doctor is a bit uneven and he really doesnt come in to his own until the audio plays

but everybody loves the caves of androzani for a reason
you'll see why
In general it has taken quite some effort to get all the classic episodes.

Online the best place has been Hulu Plus, although that required me to buy a prepaid US mastercard and then use a service like unlocator.com to circumvent region locks. It is amazing how many hoops you have to go though to pay somebody money.

Unfortunately Hulu Plus only have about 70% of the episodes.

Then some I bought on DVD collections from Amazon, and yet others I could find online for free streaming - for instance many of the reconstructions are available at dailymotion.com.

But I have them at that is nice. :)

They have the new series. They only have very little of the classic series. There are ~600 episodes total and US Netflix has something like 80 episodes, all of which is also on Hulu.

yogsloth: Just wait until you discover all the official audio releases.

Better get started.
Not to mention the Big Finish audio dramas. There are over two hundred (mostly about two hours each) in the main series alone, plus many other series (e.g. Eighth Doctor Adventures, Fourth Doctor Adventures, Companion Chronicles...), and on top of that the various spin-offs not featuring the Doctor (e.g. Gallifrey, Dalek Empire, UNIT). It's a vast quantity; I'm slowly working my way through them and I doubt I'll come close to listening to the lot in my lifetime.
I've watched the new series up until season 7 and I really got tired because of the title of the season fianle and it didn't reveal what I hoped it would.. :(

It's really great, I became rather obssesed when I first began to watch and what I really enjoyed is the wobbly logic regarding time travel. In conventional time travel fiction they go for a comedic effect or a serious one, either failing or succeeding (usually with the you can't change the past) but it's kind of boring. With the rules in Doctor Who universe sometimes it doesn't make sense and sometimes it does which makes it funny and logical (albeit abstract), I really enjoy that combo. Sadly, after a while most likely in season 6 of the new series the magic was lost.

jacobmarner: Have I missed something?
What about Mr. Bean's Dr. Who Nativity Scene?

Fans asked "hey, why, it is totally not consistant with the tardis universal language thing".

Authors answered : "because fun."

In several ways, Doctor Who is the polar opposite of Star Trek. No military structure (just one guy, out of control, with sometimes direct antimilitarist reflexes), and no lore nitpicking or twisted rationalisation. Rule of cool (often Rule of Cheese) tramples everything.

Pure easy-goingness.

This is just awesome. Good comparison with Star Trek.

When I saw all the early black & white episodes it was really an ordeal. They were really bad and toe twitching. In particular "The Web Planet" story arc from Season 2 has so bad that I have no words for it.

Elmofongo: I don't even know who Dr. Who is and whats his appeal?
avatar
snowkatt: he is a madman in a blue box t hat travels through time and space
and he is immortal
and can save and have saved the universe countless of times with nothing more then his wits ( and in later episodes his reputation )
His wits, and his sonic screwdriver. :)
