I'll try my hand at favorite storyline by Doctor. Though it has been almost 20 years since I watched some of them, so my memory may be off.
1. The Daleks. The first appearance of my second favorite Who monster.
2. The Tomb of the Cybermen. My favorite Who monsters and one of the few 2nd Doctor storylines I've seen.
3. Invasion of the Dinosaurs. Not really a great storyline, but I love dinosaurs and remember the book fondly.
4. Horror of Fang Rock. One of the few Doctor Who storylines I actually found frightening.
5. Black Orchid. I think The Five Doctors is a close 2nd.
6. Attack of the Cybermen. It has Cybermen, and I enjoyed the book.
7. Remembrance of the Daleks. It has Daleks. Silver Nemesis, The Curse of Fenric, and Ghost Light are also good.
8. TV Movie. I haven't read any of the books or listened to the radio dramas.
9. Dalek. A single Dalek has never been this scary.
10. The Girl in the Fireplace. I have only seen the first 2 episodes of series 3 so far.

1)Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker)
2)Third Doctor (Jon Pertwee)
3)Tenth Doctor (David Tennant)
4)Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston)
5)Seventh Doctor (Sylvester McCoy)
6)Eighth Doctor (Paul Mcgann)
7 or 8)Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton)
7 or 8)First Doctor (William Hartnell)
9)Fifth Doctor (Peter Davidson)
10) Sixth Doctor (Colin Baker)
the only reason the 1st and 2nd dr are so low is because I haven't seen much of their work...
Tom Baker was my first exposure to Dr Who and I enjoyed Jon Pertwee. I hated Colin Baker as I view him as a clown and his side kicks as being more professional/experienced than him. I think Paul Mcgann got a raw deal with his one episode...though he is the longest last of the Drs if you include other media formats. Peter Davidson was just plain to me...a car sales man look that turned me off.
I'm enjoying David Tennant's spark he brings to the role. There is a twinkle in his eye that I like.

4th Doctor was DEFINITELY my favorite. 
Fave villians? Gotta love the Cybermen ....
Rykion also mentioned the "Horror of Fang Rock" episode ... actually this is one of my most memorable episodes too. Loved it.
How about fave companion while we are at it? My was K-9. Loved the little bugger.

My favorite companion is a tie between Ace and Tegan. I really enjoyed the relationship between Ace and the Doctor. It was a very fatherly time relationship. Ace had a lot of spirit and was really touch and able to take care of herself.
I liked Tegan because she was fuuny. She and Davison's Doctor had a lot of chemistry.
The companion I hahted the worst was Mel and the horrible screaming she did.
For me, Baker is being pushed out by the current Doctor.
And my favorite Doctor moment is when Baker is climbing this cliff, stops pulls a book on climbing mountains in Tibet out of a pocket, realizes he can’t read Tibetian, and then pulls a book on reading Tibetian out of another pocket (all while hanging on the cliff).
I never saw the Gunfighters. But I did see Happiness Patrol (I had to purchase new eyeballs after watching it).
Ace was great - I saw her at... a certain time in my development and, well, had a mad crush on her.
Davros was only good in his first appearance and then went down hill fast.

My favorite companions by ranking:
1) Leela - You need to ask?
Kidding aside, despite being the sexiest thing onscreen, Leela was smart, tough, and a perfect compliment for the Doctor.
2) Romana II - Have not watched Mary Tamm yet, so I only have the lovely Lalla Ward to go on. Personally I think it was a brilliant stroke to have one of the Doctor's own race accompany him. As it allowed for some playful banter to pass between them.
3) Sarah Jane Smith - While I don't rank her as my all time favorite like many do, there's no denying what a wonderful presence she was on the TARDIS.
4) Martha Jones - While she came after Rose, whom I rank highly as well, Martha gets extra points for being smarter, and a much stronger character personality wise.
5) Rose Tyler - Smart, feisty, and cute as hell. Rose may have been just an ordinary shopgirl, but she was more than that to the Doctor, and to many of us as well.
6) Charley Pollard - From the Eighth Doctor audio adventures. Charley was very much like Rose, albeit a bit more reckless and standoffish.
7) Jamie Mcrimmon - One of the few male companions worth mentioning IMO. The kind of guy you'd want watching your back in a fight.
8) Jo Grant - One word: HOT.
9) K-9 - Can't forget about the dog now, no?
10) Ian Chesterton - In my opinion, Ian was the most in control among the first group who traveled in the TARDIS (the Doctor included, as he was pretty much an irritable old man early on).

Well, damn near any Doctor Who episode is riddled with what could be called "flaws". You have a guy with an nigh-indestructible time machine who tends only to use it to get in and out of a misadventure, and only occasionally considers using it actually help him win the day. Is time mutable or immutable? If it's mutable, are there conequences to the time stream for altering history or aren't there? All of that varies from one episode to the next. The fact that folks gripe about inconsistencies that occur in a show that pretty obviously doesn't care all that much about consistency is pretty baffling.Plane Sailing said:
Davros was an interesting villain because we actually got to see a lot of his cold-blooded, calculating machinations, which ultimately resulted in a conscious decision to exterminate his own people. He came across as evil on the same level as Hitler, Mengele, or Stalin, and that was a distinct departure from most Doctor Who villains, who are a bunch of cartoonishly bombastic supervillains that are about as subtle as a sack of hammers. That applies not just to the bug-eyed monsters, but even to the Master (who's always seemed to be evil just for the hell of it). With most Who villains, you wouldn't get a nice little monologue about what they would do if they had a virus that could wipe out all life in the universe. Davros was more like a Blake's 7 villain, really.
But yeah, I think he should've stayed dead at the end of that serial.
