So I'm not one for curating TV series, but Doctor Who is defeating me a little.

Posted by Reagen Dec 14 '15, 18:31

I'd appreciate a list of must-sees and/or crucial plot points and or arcs that leave out the fillers and skippable episodes. We're in Tennant's run, at The Lazarus Effect episode.

Responses:

I enjoyed all of Tennant's episodes and Smith's through to the arrival of Clara. - TWuGbacca Dec 14, 18:41 16
- I'm watching them with my wife and we're both sort of looking over at each other and shrugging - Reagen Dec 14, 18:51 8
  - Daleks in Manhattan is definitely skippable -- nm - znufrii Dec 14, 18:53 7
    - so which else, is what I'm asking. -- nm - Reagen Dec 14, 18:54 6
      - watch these -- (edited) - znufrii Dec 14, 19:01 4
        
        I'd give doctor's daughter, and the fires of pompeii a solid meh, and I enjoyed the three parter that ended series 3. -- nm - mafic Dec 14, 19:21 1
        
        fair enough - znufrii Dec 14, 19:26
        
        but mostly, you've gotten through the worst of it. (*cough*MarthaJones*cough*) -- nm - znufrii Dec 14, 19:12 1
        
        I like *her*, but her episodes have been shit. -- nm - Reagen Dec 14, 19:14
      - here this episode guide rates them and I agree with most of them.... -- (link) - Remlik Five standing by! Dec 14, 18:58
- The Capaldi ones get better with the last of his first season. And then the current season is much better. But not all essential. -- nm - lii2ou4lu7 Dec 14, 18:47
- *ding* -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 14, 18:42 5
  - I'm struggling to care enough to catch up. I just watched the Sandmen episode and holy shit was that stupid. - TWuGbacca Dec 14, 18:46 4
    - spoiler - Spawn Solo Dec 14, 18:47 3
      - this season, except for the Sandman (which was terrible), has been stellar. -- nm - Remlik Five standing by! Dec 14, 18:48 1
        
        I wouldn't say stellar, but enjoyable enough. -- (edited) - znufrii Dec 14, 19:12
      - You ain't missing much. More of "the Moon is an egg" stupidity. -- nm - TWuGbacca Dec 14, 18:47
Tennant's? Watch them all. -- nm - Spawn Solo Dec 14, 18:32 3
- while there are a couple of duds. watch them all. even the Xmas specials. -- nm - Remlik Five standing by! Dec 14, 18:37
- there's several of his already I wish I'd skipped. -- nm - Reagen Dec 14, 18:35 1
  - I admit, I have only watched his run twice and it has been a while. - Spawn Solo Dec 14, 18:37
