Capaldi, he was my favourite. He always felt to me that age had caught up with the Doctor and he didn’t have it in him to care anymore, but he still had bouts of compassion. He really fit the cliche of the uncaring immortal but with sudden upsurges of passion.
i like smith the best because he's the perfect balance of 'silly man with a box' and 'ancient being that has witnessed the birth and death of the universe a million times over' and he manages to switch between them perfectly, capaldi has some good speeches though
Honestly I'm a fan of Jordan Peterson so Capaldi just feels like Peterson if he was a magical alien who traveled time and space and that gives me fuzzies.
Do not dis on the 10th doctor, that man created my childhood, broke my heart, fixed it, and broke it again. Then he came back and my life's now complete
"You are a literal child", looks around bedroom full of toys, vintage space models, and Doctor Who wallpaper border... You're not wrong. (And Two's been my favourte since the 90s)
I personally love the Matt Smith iteration, he was the first doctor who I watched all the way through and I loved his childlike portrayal and how it became increasingly clear that it was a coping mechanism for him to deal with the trauma of his life.
If only he'd had more seasons. That said, Season 1 is still the most tightly-constructed and coherent season of modern Doctor Who. Honestly, only really paralleled by Season 10.
It's like picking a favorite child. Every actor has brought unique characteristics to the role and it's just impossible for me to say that one of them did it better than the other. But I guess, since 10 was the first doctor I watched, he will always have a special place in my heart.
sorry, but the war doctor is a lot of peoples favourites, you underestimate the sheer presence john hurt had as an actor, he even made a poorly done cgi dragon seem like a real being (merlin reference for the fans) his performance as the war doctor showed a lot, filled in the gaps and made the doctors overall personality even more meaningful once you learned who he was at his darkest time
Things like that were common during the Time War. I guess that makes you a “neverwere?” Maybe you can be resurrected by the Could Have Been King? Or if Amy remembered you in her subconscious you could be an Auton?
My favorite is The Tenth Doctor. I've cried 3 times for him since he regenerated, but I watched the 50th anniversary episode because I missed him, and now I know he is okay and happy. But he isn't basic to me. I also love The Eleventh Doctor, he is hilarious. We've seen Matt Smith as well in Morbius, and David in a lot of his small crime shows. My two ultimate favorites.
He's our Doctor. More than any before or since. Capaldi was such a perfect amalgamation of previous doctors whilst having his own charming and infectious flair. 12 shredding on guitar on top of a tank rolling out of a medieval castle, one of the best Doctor Who moments of all time
Eccleston (9) was the first one of whom I watched a full episode, but Smith (11) is my all-time favorite, but I’m partial to all other main incarnations, including Hurt (War). Speaking of the late John Hurt, he was actually really cool. He was in 3 major sci-fi productions. He was Executive Officer Kane in _Alien_ (1979), reprised the role in a cameo in _Spaceballs_ (1987), and finally appeared as the War Doctor in 2013. Also, Capaldi (12) and Baker (4) are tied for my second favorite; they’re both fun and witty in their own ways. Capaldi especially since he’s extra-chaotic but can be extremely serious when necessary, and the canon connection between the 12th Doctor and Capaldi’s previous role in _The Fires of Pompeii._ And I like Jackson Lake for his story and it’s inspiring message. And Peter Cushing (the _Dalek_ Films’ Doctor) is cool too, since his movies are an alternate take on Terry Nation’s Dalek serials.
I met Paul McCann at Chester comic con , he was such a nice guy , no one had yet gone up to his table to purchase an autograph or picture and although I wasn’t paying for anything he had a full on conversation with me after I told him he was my favourite doctor and even took the time to talk to me after his Q and A
Honestly the best cons are the ones you just have the ability to talk to the people, it’s really nice to get to know them

@@charliejenkins3211 unfortunately they're quite rare (at least the ones I attended) because they've always been very crowded.. But agreed, if you catch them at a peaceful moment it's totally worth it!
Tom Baker was the first Doctor I was aware of, watching reruns that I didn't know were reruns on PBS as a kid in the 80s. I like Tennant, but to me, Baker is the best.
What if your favorite.... is just The Doctor? No matter what face they're wearing? To me, the Doctor is always, simply, amazingly, wonderfully... The Doctor. Same person, new face, different personality traits enhanced by the experiences of the previous lifetime. The Doctor is a Phoenix... I love the Doctor.
@@the.youtube.of.sam.gotterthe very last one shown? it’s an incarnation of the 9th doctor from the Scream of the Shalka series, which came out before Eccleston’s first season and after the 1996 movie. while it may not be considered in the main TV continuity (canon is a fickle thing), it’s well worth looking into in my opinion.
The reason why John Hurt is no-ones favorite Doctor is that he was only in 1 episode of Doctor Who (that also had 2 other amazing Doctors in it). All the other doctors had at least one season on the show (exept for eight who had a movie). John's Doctor, or the 'War Doctor' as we called him, was also not technically a Doctor as he went by the name 'The Warrior' instead.
11 was the first one I ever saw, but as I grew older I was able to appreciate how well-written his character is. He's seen as the childish one (at least out of the new era) yet he also is able to display the pain the doctor experiences as an immortal being, the last of his kind, and the burden of his choices. Tl;dr: Eleven is still my favorite
Eccleston was my first Doctor so he'll always have a special place in my heart, plus he has one of my favourite lines. "Then prove yourself Doctor. What are you, coward or killer?" "Coward, any day."
As much as I love Capaldi (my second favorite) and the 4th, Eccleston is still my favorite. His run was too short, but he made the absolute most of it. He was fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.
I am what the hipsters think they are... Okay, I'll take it. To be honest, I'm not sure what the stereotypical hipster thinks they are, but it seems positive.
For McCoy, I was thinking "Wait, that's what you put? That's barely anything-" *Looks at my H.G. Wells collection* "Oh yeah, classics just in general." You're pretty good
watching ecchelston go from a kind merciful man to a stark raving lunatic in episode 6 of the 9th season made me fall in love with doctor who, and sold me on the franchise I owe it to him
Too accurate, I am so neutral. Whenever I take personality tests, my results are always right down the middle of everything. I started watching doctor who during Tennant but Smith was my first one I was old enough to really understand. He is like the embodiment of doctor who to me. He’s fun and silly and childish but also serious and brooding. He captures both the childhood wonder and adventure, and the complexity and maturity. Other doctors do this too of course but I find he has the perfect balance.
@@cmmosher8035 - Likewise. Who was only on late night Saturday nights and I wasn't old enough to be in school yet, but I'd sneak out of bed at 11 pm to watch it because of Baker. I just finished watching the entire series (that isn't an exaggeration) and he is still my favorite. They all have their pros and cons, but he will always be the most Doctory of the Doctors for me.
I like the 5th doctor because of his youthful way, and also bro was dropped out. Especially for that episode where he played cricket in the middle 1800s I think
I love Eccleston so much. I just started watching this show last week so as I go onto the second season, my opinion may change. But I don’t see how he could ever not be my favorite.
Eccleston and Capaldi will always be my favs, they were so unique and sassy, and they had some of the best episodes! I still get chills rewatching their seasons
I grew up watching Troughton and Pertwee on VHS as a kid with my parents in the late 90s early 00's. My parents weren't big fans of any other doctors. It gave me an interesting perspective on the other doctors when I did eventually watch them decades later.
Look. I love 5. Is he the best Dr? Not by any means. But he's my favourite. I just can't get enough of his boundless pettiness and passive aggression hidden beneath an extremely thin veneer of politeness. Every time he's on screen being a little bitch I am filled with boundless joy
The tenth doctor is class, best era of the show by far, has a fantastic character arc and big finish does the character justice with the time lord victorious cannot wait for the 60th specials!
I grew up on the 10th Dr. and found it difficult to like any other after he left. 11 wasn't too bad and I think 12 is the coolest out of all three but the 10th just brings back memeories yk.
John was amazing. I love Doctor Capaldi because I loved Doctor Hurt, although I love 9th and 10th just as much. The 8th Doctor was goofy, but Paul McGann was great in a short pre-50th anniversary special (which ended just as he regenerated into the War Doctor)
Tom Baker is the best perfectly capturing the alien qualities of the character. David Tennant is the worst playing the character as an overgrown teenager picking up Earth girls every week.
Where are all the contrarians either proudly screaming 'yes I am!' or indignantly screaming 'no I'm not!', and either way inescapably confirming the statement?!
I was introduced to eccleston and he will always be my favorite. He seemed like the most realistic version of someone who’s thousands of years old and spends his life dealing with other peoples’ shit. Of course tennant falls into a close second if he’s not tied
The 10th is the one that hits me hard when I'm watching the emotional scenes,and it gets me every time. The 11th makes me smile because he's like an very nice old man, in a jong and energetic body, and makes it comedic in a way, but also when he is serious, he realy is good at it. the 12th doctor can say one word, and you tell a thousand things by seeing it on his face. Peter Capaldi is so underrated as a actor. And 13th........... Sorry where was i ............ Oh yes the 14th doctor with David Tennant! Can't wait.
How many times do I have to tell people this. IT WASN'T JODIE WHITTAKER'S FAULT THAT HER EPISODES WERE WRITTEN BAD. IT WAS CHRIS CHIBNALL'S FAULT. QUIT THROWING HATRED TOWARD JODIE WHITTAKER'S 13TH DOCTOR WHEN THE SHOW RUNNER IS THE ONE TO BLAME FOR HER EPISODES BEING BAD.
@Exit911YT Yhea , I know that already. I was not talking about the actors (except for Peter Capaldi) I was only talking about all the versions of The Doctor. There is no hate on Jodie. It's just that I'd rather wanna pretend that the 13th Doctors series din't happen.
@@Exit911YTImagine writing a paragraph in full caps against a person who did not do the thing you say you don't like people doing.. 🤦 And yeah, the writing for her was mostly crappy, but even then she never came off as The Doctor at any point. Jodie is a great actress, but she could not pull off The Doctor convincingly at all.
Ncuti Gatwa: You judge books by their covers (I'm not saying Gatwa will be bad, I'm just saying, don't judge him before you see him on the show) Also Capaldi's my favourite - I'm cool, heh 😊
I only saw one promotional video of him and I actually already think he will be a great doctor if they give him good stories. He has the energy to captivate people. I wouldn't be too surprised if his doctor might end up as beloved as Tennant's is. Crossing my fingers for good stories. (This is what killed Smith's Doctor for me. Amazing and sympathetic actor I enjoy in other projects but awful writing that got annoying very quickly. He did what he could with the cards he was dealt but for me it just was unsaveable.)
Smith and Capaldi were the ones I grew up with so I’d say they’re my favourites. After binging new who, it’s too difficult to give a favourite all those actors are too damned skilled.
@@CouncilofGeeks if you feel comfy I’d love for you to expand on this a little! I’m queer and love 12 but had never considered looking at his story through that lens !
1. David 2. Christopher 3. Matt After that all the doctors mix into one for me. I have gone through a few episodes of the BF war Doctor stories and the EOW novel and I can say he has potential to be at least someone’s favourite. Just annoying that his story is locked behind expensive audio episodes, I get they have to pay the bills but £30 for 3 1 hour episodes is a killer to the wallet and sadly it cannot regenerate that fast. 😅
I loooooved 11 and was so turned not a fan of 12 at ALL in the beginning, but by the time it was time so bid him adieu I was heartbroken. The platonic relationship between him and Bill was just perfect.
For the new era, the smith had the best adventures, but eccleston had a heart that could not be bottled up, that doctor wore his heart in his sleeve and could put it away if he wanted too
Definitely don't agree with the Tom Baker one (even though he's not my personal favorite) but I will concede, I am absolutely a pretentious fucker, a piece of shit hipster, and an overall neutral mediator
I mean, there are people who grew up with the Tom Baker era. Or the wilderness years when "current" Doctor Who was the expanded media with 8. And Hartnell is a fantastic Doctor, especially if you watch his era in chronological order as it was supposed to be viewed.
@@brucesimmons5517 Yeah, Hartwell, McGann, And Smith are all tied for my favorites. I personally think the Hartnell era is in general the best era of the show's history in terms of characters, character dynamics, story variety, and sheer ambition. Matt Smith really brought an element of youthful excitement and optimism to the role while managing to seem like an emotionally damaged grampa, which for me was a combination of character traits I'd loved in former Doctors but had never seen used in such unity before. And Paul McGann, I love everything about his performance so that goes without saying..but the wilderness years aren't just great because of the Doctor. The scale of the Whoniverse has never felt larger than in the wilderness years, where anything goes, any concept can be explored, and the media didn't feel obligated to oversimplify ideas to maintain mass appeal.
@@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8 I agree about Hartnell and Smith, definitely. The Hartnell era especially is severely underrated, even among Classic Who fans. Although unfortunately I don't know anything about the expanded media, so my only exposure to McGann are the movie and NotD. As for my personal favourite, it has to be Eccleston. I just really like the whole "tortured man just out of war who is still trying to do the right thing and be The Doctor again" thing they were going for with him. Not to mention his performance was consistently fantastic and RTD didn't have enough time to mess up his characterisation like with other characters.
I love Tennant so much. 🥰 but I also love Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi, and Jodi Whitaker. To be fair, that's probably because those are the doctors I was introduced to when I started becoming a fan in the show .
Capaldi, he was my favourite.
He always felt to me that age had caught up with the Doctor and he didn’t have it in him to care anymore, but he still had bouts of compassion. He really fit the cliche of the uncaring immortal but with sudden upsurges of passion.

@@kimmiewise1044 yeah fairs. Never thought about him like that. Also gotta say the bill cyberman ep was so good.
Tennant also has that balance.
@@AggressiveHydrationTennant was a man child with an ego the size of the universe whose only redeeming quality is that he is played by David Tennant.

He brought so much to one season. Kindness, pain, joy, compassion.
Agreed!
If only he'd had more seasons.
That said, Season 1 is still the most tightly-constructed and coherent season of modern Doctor Who. Honestly, only really paralleled by Season 10.

Just a shame that so many episodes are missing from his era
I didn’t know The Governor was Doctor Who before the zombie apocalypse
As a fan of both Troughton and McGann... A pretentious _child?_
Oh hey! Same!
Found the club of people with taste!
Excuse you, John Hurt is one of my absolute favorites 😮💨 It's 9, 11, 12, War, & Fugitive for me and I can never settle on just one, leave me alone 😅
It's against the law not to admire John Hurt.
@@melenatorrESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE A POTTERHEAD.
Look. I love 5. Is he the best Dr? Not by any means. But he's my favourite. I just can't get enough of his boundless pettiness and passive aggression hidden beneath an extremely thin veneer of politeness. Every time he's on screen being a little bitch I am filled with boundless joy
The tenth doctor is class, best era of the show by far, has a fantastic character arc and big finish does the character justice with the time lord victorious cannot wait for the 60th specials!
I feel sad seeing that I'm apparently the only McCoy fan here. The unfinished business season was an absolutely banger after absolute banger.
I like the classics, and your dad has excellent taste.
I grew up on the 10th Dr. and found it difficult to like any other after he left. 11 wasn't too bad and I think 12 is the coolest out of all three but the 10th just brings back memeories yk.
I think the second was pretty good actually
"You like the classics"
Yes. Yes I do.
Seven best doc
I grew up with Remembrance of the Daleks on repeat.
John was amazing. I love Doctor Capaldi because I loved Doctor Hurt, although I love 9th and 10th just as much. The 8th Doctor was goofy, but Paul McGann was great in a short pre-50th anniversary special (which ended just as he regenerated into the War Doctor)
I waited for my favourite (8) to come up
I was not disappointed 😂
Same 😂
Tom Baker is the best perfectly capturing the alien qualities of the character. David Tennant is the worst playing the character as an overgrown teenager picking up Earth girls every week.
8th Doctor fans telling you how good Big Finish's ultra-rare 52 part story that was only sold to people who went to Paul Mcgann birthday party is
Matt smith has me in a chokehold
Where are all the contrarians either proudly screaming 'yes I am!' or indignantly screaming 'no I'm not!', and either way inescapably confirming the statement?!
Eccleston is the most iconic doctor and the best
So... I'm a hipster contrarian with a safe choice? XD
I was introduced to eccleston and he will always be my favorite. He seemed like the most realistic version of someone who’s thousands of years old and spends his life dealing with other peoples’ shit. Of course tennant falls into a close second if he’s not tied
The 10th is the one that hits me hard when I'm watching the emotional scenes,and it gets me every time.
The 11th makes me smile because he's like an very nice old man, in a jong and energetic body, and makes it comedic
in a way, but also when he is serious, he realy is good at it.
the 12th doctor can say one word, and you tell a thousand things by seeing it on his face.
Peter Capaldi is so underrated as a actor.
And 13th...........
Sorry where was i
............
Oh yes the 14th doctor with David Tennant!
Can't wait.
How many times do I have to tell people this.
IT WASN'T JODIE WHITTAKER'S FAULT THAT HER EPISODES WERE WRITTEN BAD.
IT WAS CHRIS CHIBNALL'S FAULT.
QUIT THROWING HATRED TOWARD JODIE WHITTAKER'S 13TH DOCTOR WHEN THE SHOW RUNNER IS THE ONE TO BLAME FOR HER EPISODES BEING BAD.
@Exit911YT
Yhea , I know that already.
I was not talking about the actors (except for Peter Capaldi)
I was only talking about all the versions of The Doctor.
There is no hate on Jodie.
It's just that I'd rather wanna pretend that the 13th Doctors series din't happen.
@Exit911YT
And also, calm down.
@@PizzaTimeGuy I've come to the conclusion that Russell T Davies should've written Jodie Whittaker's episodes.
@@Exit911YTImagine writing a paragraph in full caps against a person who did not do the thing you say you don't like people doing.. 🤦
And yeah, the writing for her was mostly crappy, but even then she never came off as The Doctor at any point.
Jodie is a great actress, but she could not pull off The Doctor convincingly at all.
I’m stuck between David and Peter, and I can live with that.
Contrarian !! The fifth doctor was my first love !! 😂
it's the eyebrows. and also "s i t d o w n a n d T o u l k!" I'm actually cool
Ncuti Gatwa: You judge books by their covers (I'm not saying Gatwa will be bad, I'm just saying, don't judge him before you see him on the show)
Also Capaldi's my favourite - I'm cool, heh 😊
I only saw one promotional video of him and I actually already think he will be a great doctor if they give him good stories. He has the energy to captivate people. I wouldn't be too surprised if his doctor might end up as beloved as Tennant's is. Crossing my fingers for good stories.
(This is what killed Smith's Doctor for me. Amazing and sympathetic actor I enjoy in other projects but awful writing that got annoying very quickly. He did what he could with the cards he was dealt but for me it just was unsaveable.)
Unfortunately ncutis doctor has not met expectations
@@splatinumm eh, I enjoy him. You do you though.
Smith and Capaldi were the ones I grew up with so I’d say they’re my favourites.
After binging new who, it’s too difficult to give a favourite all those actors are too damned skilled.
10 is my fave but mostly bc I'm ftm and I got to go as him for halloween before I had socially transitioned at all
That's valid as hell. Recognizing my own queer journey in aspects of 12's character arc is part of why he's my favorite.
@@CouncilofGeeks if you feel comfy I’d love for you to expand on this a little! I’m queer and love 12 but had never considered looking at his story through that lens !
@@natalia4955 here you go: ruclips.net/video/gY-iIRJdt6E/видео.html
1. David
2. Christopher
3. Matt
After that all the doctors mix into one for me. I have gone through a few episodes of the BF war Doctor stories and the EOW novel and I can say he has potential to be at least someone’s favourite. Just annoying that his story is locked behind expensive audio episodes, I get they have to pay the bills but £30 for 3 1 hour episodes is a killer to the wallet and sadly it cannot regenerate that fast. 😅
Sales are our friends.
I loooooved 11 and was so turned not a fan of 12 at ALL in the beginning, but by the time it was time so bid him adieu I was heartbroken. The platonic relationship between him and Bill was just perfect.
The 10th Doctor will forever be my favorite bc in my eyes he's so silly and autism/ADHD coded and I love him for it 😭
For the new era, the smith had the best adventures, but eccleston had a heart that could not be bottled up, that doctor wore his heart in his sleeve and could put it away if he wanted too
This feels oddly on point.
Peter Capaldi is THE doctor to me. He was so phenomenal.
Bro, Matt Smith is always getting underrated 😭
Ewwww no
Yeah 😭
Yes
@@Uhohlisayou are mid
I know right! He's one of the best!
I'm from the UK - 'your doctor' simply shows the age you 1st got into Dr Who.
Does it though? Often, sure, but like, always? Because I got into with Tennant and "My Doctor" isn't Tennant.
Definitely don't agree with the Tom Baker one (even though he's not my personal favorite) but I will concede, I am absolutely a pretentious fucker, a piece of shit hipster, and an overall neutral mediator
I mean, there are people who grew up with the Tom Baker era. Or the wilderness years when "current" Doctor Who was the expanded media with 8. And Hartnell is a fantastic Doctor, especially if you watch his era in chronological order as it was supposed to be viewed.
@@brucesimmons5517 Yeah, Hartwell, McGann, And Smith are all tied for my favorites. I personally think the Hartnell era is in general the best era of the show's history in terms of characters, character dynamics, story variety, and sheer ambition. Matt Smith really brought an element of youthful excitement and optimism to the role while managing to seem like an emotionally damaged grampa, which for me was a combination of character traits I'd loved in former Doctors but had never seen used in such unity before. And Paul McGann, I love everything about his performance so that goes without saying..but the wilderness years aren't just great because of the Doctor. The scale of the Whoniverse has never felt larger than in the wilderness years, where anything goes, any concept can be explored, and the media didn't feel obligated to oversimplify ideas to maintain mass appeal.
@@8LiterallyJustTheNumber8 I agree about Hartnell and Smith, definitely. The Hartnell era especially is severely underrated, even among Classic Who fans. Although unfortunately I don't know anything about the expanded media, so my only exposure to McGann are the movie and NotD.
As for my personal favourite, it has to be Eccleston. I just really like the whole "tortured man just out of war who is still trying to do the right thing and be The Doctor again" thing they were going for with him. Not to mention his performance was consistently fantastic and RTD didn't have enough time to mess up his characterisation like with other characters.
I love Tennant so much. 🥰 but I also love Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi, and Jodi Whitaker.
To be fair, that's probably because those are the doctors I was introduced to when I started becoming a fan in the show .
Yes he is my favorite. No one told me to like Tom Baker.
I will not tolerate John Hurt slander
Brilliant. I'll have to accept my fave is the neutral choice but love how they all line up.
Matt smith is my favourite and I am a very neutral person so good match here. This is definitely the most accurate version of this I’ve seen LOL
Capaldi has the best speeches. you cannot change my mind.
HES NOT BASIC HES AMAZING AND ROSE WILL LIVE ON FOREVER ❤️❤️❤️❤️
