Take a look at this guide to find out where to start with classic DoctorWho. Or just absorb the time vortex.
Every Doctor Who fan that got into the show in its post-2005 incarnation dreams of one day having what it takes to go back to 1963 and watch the series in its entirety. Unfortunately, to time-travel in television history like that, one needs time, patience, and, most importantly, a good guide for where to begin. In its 59 years of existence, 1990-2005 hiatus notwithstanding, Doctor Who has aired more than 800 episodes over the course of 39 seasons.
“The Daleks” is an exciting, sci-fi heavy serial that has everything a Doctor Who fan might expect from the show. “An Unearthly Child," on the other hand, not so much. The show’s very first episode is a great introduction to the Doctor , with Ian and Barbara getting trapped in the TARDIS while trying to check up on a mysteriously knowledgeable student.
Third Doctor’s a Charm Skipping half or even entire serials, or looking for reconstructed videos made out of photographs, cartoons, and pieces of original audio isn’t for everyone. If the prospect of going through all this trouble scares you away from Classic Who, you will be happy to know that the Third Doctor’s adventures are all intact. The first Time Lord to have no missing episodes is also the first to appear on screens in full color.
Pick a Favorite Doctor Look, if you’ve already decided to skip one or two Doctors, it is clear that approaching the show chronologically isn’t your main concern. Nor should it be. Considering how episodic the classic serials were, you don’t miss much by jumping in on the show at any time you see fit.
Go Evil and Don't Look Back If we’re already being bad and ditching the chronological order, why not go evil all the way? Just like with the greatest Doctors and companions, you can also choose to track the progress of Doctor Who’s most beloved and reviled bad guys. Just keep in mind that, in this case, you will have to skip from Doctor to Doctor and companion to companion without much time to get to know the characters.
