Regeneration and Incarnation are sometimes used interchangeably. Technically it's 12 regenerations, making 13 incarnations. But the incarnations are often referred to as regenerations not just by fans, but by the show itself.
What's your favorite Doctor Who line or moment?

The show usually got it right, however. In The Five Doctors, 1st asks "Which are you? Third regeneration?" to which 5th answers "Forth".
"Good Heavens, there are Five of me now!"
The Master had burned through all 12 regenerations, died, stolen another body, was offered more regenerations as a bribe (presumably some modification to his Traken host body), died again, but was resurrected (along with Rassilon and others) during the Time War. Only to hide away and Die yet again.
I've always wondered what happened to Kamp-Po, The Rani, Iris WildThyme, and the other renegade time lords. What did they do during the Time War?
I think it is indicative of the problems with the New show, however that now we look for good lines. We used to look for good episodes, or good stories. Haven't seen one of those in 2 years.

What do guys think of Capaldi? Probably a different dynamic with an older doctor when the last few were younger. I know I have seen Capaldi in several things, but the only things that specifically come to mind off the bat are the movie Local Hero and as the Angel Islington in Neverwhere. Quite liked Neverwhere.

You are totes Retardis.
I just have been having a funny feeling that they would rotate back to Christopher Eccleston at some time, making the whole thing a loop.

Why? It's gonna die and that will be a great day not only due to justice finally being done but also cuz of the whining and tears.
@The_Silversword, that is not an appropriate comment here. <!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention --> @Zombie_Babies <!-- END TEMPLATE: dbtech_usertag_mention -->, threadcrapping is not appropriate either. If you don't like something, please try to find a thread about something you do like.
I like him as an actor and I'm thinking he'll be very good in the role. I'm guessing he'll be a more sarcastic doctor, but we'll see.

My favorite Dr. Who moment would have to be the death of Adric.
Still gets me.
