Doctor Who Fanclub!

Finally caught up with series 9... what to do as I wait for the next series...
Rewatch from the beginning for the 50th time? Sounds good!

Personally, since I've watched all of the New Who, I'm trying to watch the Classic stuff. X3
I checked out from my local public library the following:
-The Tenth Planet
-The Key to Time
-Meglos
-The Ice Warriors
So far I've watched The Tenth Planet and Meglos. X3
And since my old computer, which is only 3-4 years old has been fixed, I can watch DVDs on it! ૮⍝◜•˕̮•◝⍝ა
So, I'm excited! :3
Also, since my public library is getting a bunch of new Doctor Who DVDs and has already entered them into the catalog, I've already requested a bunch of them. X3 My library has a limit on how many items you can request/put on hold...so I filled all of them with Doctor Who DVDs.

Oh trust me, when I say from the beginning I mean from the -very- beginning XD

Oooh, nice Kazoo! ♥

I wish I could do that, unfortunately, I don't know the exact episode order for the old series...I should probably look up an episode listing. X3 Besides, I can't really watch them in order anyway via my method because the DVDs don't come to me in order. X3
Hence why I watched Meglos before The Key of Time. X3

I have to say that when I watched The Tenth Planet, I totally didn't expect seeing the lost episode from it being actually animated like a cartoon. X3 I was expecting the other kind where they set the audio to still pictures. X3 It was rather interesting. Although, I have to say that I am so glad that Cybermen voices have been upgraded because the original sound of their voices really, really, really annoyed me. X3

Edit: So...I got a bunch of Doctor Who DVDs from the public library, out of the 30 I'd requested, 16 of them came in. X3 Apparently, it caused a bit of commotion at the library. X3 Since apparently all the Doctor Who DVDs I got are only for 7 day check-out. So my parents only got 7 of the 16 DVDs. X3 So after all my homework, it's going to be a Classic Who binge-a-thon. X3

Haha, I seem determined to watch Doctor Who out-of-order for various reasons, and not just the classic series, but the new one as well. xD Probably going to be a long post ... Sorry, I talk way too much.

Well first, I started with "The Christmas Invasion" because I wanted David Tennant to be my introduction to Doctor Who, so I completely skipped the Ninth Doctor. I watched Series 2-4 first, then I backtracked and watched Series 1 because I adored Ten and was pretty upset about him leaving, so I knew I wouldn't be able to give Eleven a fair chance if I watched him immediately afterwards ... Then I jumped forward and watched 5-8 (this is all New Who, of course, via Netflix.)

Then at some point while I was in the middle of Series 6 or 7, I decided to take a look at Classic Who and watched the First Doctor's "The Aztecs" story and the first five-ish minutes of "The Arc in Space" with the Fourth Doctor. Then after I finished Series 8 of New Who, which was all Netflix had available, I finally turned all my attention to the classic series, but since my only sources were the library and the "collection" Netflix had that only included maybe 20-30 stories from all of Classic Who, I watched everything almost completely out of order at first. (I focused mostly on the First, Fourth, and Fifth Doctors to start with. The Key to Time series and E-Space Trilogy are both at my library, so I ended up watching those before most everything else of the Fourth Doctor, lol.)

Then I finally switched to Hulu Plus, which had most classic stories available. I only really got to watch the Fourth and Fifth Doctors that way, though, since Hulu had to take down their DW content a month after I subscribed. Now I'm back to watching only library DVDs, for the most part, and whatever I find to buy at the local secondhand record store, which means everything is out of order again ... Thankfully Classic Who didn't have much for an overarching storyline, so you don't have to watch it in order to understand everything. It's still a little disorienting, though. xD

I have to say that when I watched The Tenth Planet, I totally didn't expect seeing the lost episode from it being actually animated like a cartoon. X3 I was expecting the other kind where they set the audio to still pictures. X3 It was rather interesting. Although, I have to say that I am so glad that Cybermen voices have been upgraded because the original sound of their voices really, really, really annoyed me. X3

Yeah, the ones I've seen of the First Doctor all have the missing episodes animated. It's pretty cool, much better than still pictures. (I haven't actually seen any of those yet, but I would imagine I'd have a hard time following them because I'm a very visual-oriented person who is absolutely horrible at following stories with only the audio or a spoken description. Not necessarily that I don't enjoy it at all, but I get lost easily. I still have no clue what was going on in the later episodes of "Shada," even though I watched through the DVD two whole times, trying to follow it. ^^") "Reign of Terror" is animated, too, I know, and "The Ice Warriors" with the Second Doctor. :)

I actually just got "The Tenth Planet" from the library myself. Haven't watched it yet, probably will over the weekend. I just watched "The Keys of Marinus" last night, and it was amazing! Actually one of only two Classic Who stories, the other being "Planet of Evil," that genuinely got my adrenaline going and had me scared/creeped out for a lot of it. Which was awesome and something I can't say even for most of the new series episodes. x) Usually Classic Who looks too dated and cheap in its effects to be particularly frightening, however well-written it is.
