[QUOTE="horacethegrey, post: 6009247, member: 40123"] Thought it was high time to start new thread like this. Matt Smith has now had two seasons as the Doctor and his third season is now underway, so perhaps now's as good as time as any to see how he ranks among those who came before him. Take note that this doesn't have to be about ranking the Doctors alone. You can also post your favorite stories from each and share your fave companions. And now, my ranking of the Doctors 1-11: 1) [B]Fourth Doctor[/B] (Tom Baker) -[I] Still the longest, still the best. I don't think any actor who takes on the role of the Doctor will ever escape the shadow of Tom Baker's scarfed bohemian. [/I] 2) [B]Eleventh Doctor[/B] (Matt Smith) - [I]The best of NuWho. Aside from being the youngest, Smith's take is probably the most eccentric, right up there with Tom Baker. [/I] 3)[B] Second Doctor[/B] (Patrick Troughton) - [I]A delight. His impish and whimsical take on the character was a breath of fresh air in comparison to William Hartnell's grumpy old man. [/I] 4)[B] Eighth Doctor[/B] (Paul Mcgann) - [I]Criminally underrated. It's a shame he only got one go at it. But the audio dramas show what a great Doctor he could have been had he been given more airtime.[/I] 5) [B]Ninth Doctor[/B] (Christopher Eccleston) - [I]Like Mcgann, his brief time with the part was unfortunate. His intense performance really helped in bringing back the series, and I would have liked to have seen more of it.[/I] 6) [B]Third Doctor[/B] (Jon Pertwee) - [I]The Time Lord James Bond. Pertwee was the first Doctor to become an action hero. [/I] 7) [B]Tenth Doctor[/B] (David Tennant) -[I] David Tennant is a very good actor, so it's a shame to see him play a part that got worse as time went on. I did like his Doctor initially, but by his run's end he had become an egotistical and self righteous prick. I was more than happy to see him go.[/I] 8) [B]First Doctor[/B] (William Hartnell) - [I]He gets props for being the first, but he's not as fun as his successors.[/I] 9) [B]Seventh Doctor[/B] (Sylvester McCoy) - [I]A little too silly and scheming for my taste.[/I] 10) [B]Fifth Doctor[/B] (Peter Davison) - [I]A lot rate him highly. I don't see why though. He's too much of a pacifist and a wet blanket for me to take him seriously.[/I] 11) [B]Sixth Doctor[/B] (Colin Baker) - [I]The less said, the better.[/I] [/QUOTE]
