They still need to find The Power of the Daleks as Troughton's first story where we get the first time a set of companions need to come to terms with the fact that the Doctor changed.
The Daleks, on the other hand, have no issue with him being different. He is still the Doc-tor...the enemy.

Having read through the Third Doctor's episodes, I think I'll give The Three Doctors and Planet Of The spiders a try.
I'm little happy to be going back to colour. I don't mind black and white but after a while it hurts my eyes.

I assumed that after bumping into the Master during the Third Doctor's tenure, that you'd feel guilty and check out how the evil renegade did against 10, but no big, never mind.
I watched Doctor Who at the Proms (2013) today.
A live concert at the Albert Hall, full of costumed spectacles and scripted japes sandwiched between a massive orchestra performing the NuWho Soundtrack.

There is a part of me that wants to watch all of series 3 and 4 even though I haven't enjoyed it. I did love Donna from what little I saw of her.
I watched the clip with Matt and Jenna. Guess now I'll have to watch the whole thing.
I've also been watching a bunch of Doctor Who Tags on YouTube. Ten is the major favourite, no surprise there. Only one person I've seen favoured Nine.

And you thought Amy and Rory's departure was sad? Just wait.
I liked it in the Library when River realizes who Donna is and what her final unfortunate fate is.
I mean dammmmmmmn, girl.
It's like meeting an 11 year old Lindsay Lohan and trying not to save her from herself.

It seems to be that Brits favor 10 while Americans like 11 best (although its a close call; seems 10's favorability is waning a bit). A lot of people like 9, but since there's only 13 episodes its hard for anyone to say he's their "favorite"
I think you should give seasons 3 and 4 another chance. I really like season 3 and think Martha is an under-appreciated companion (I just disregard the unrequited love thing; that's the only negative point). I also enjoy Donna immensely, and since Martha appears in season 4 also, its all good.
Every season has to be better than the last, so of course the first season is the worst of all.
8 and the War Doctor had bugger all screentime as well.

Oh I know what happens to Donna and it's terribly sad
I had stopped watching season 3 when I started on the Daleks Take Manhattan, with the Pig People. Can I skip those two?

yeah....Muppets, I mean, Daleks take Manhattan is a dud. Had ideas that turned out badly.
I wouldn't agree with that. IMO, season 5 is a bit better than 4. And while most seem to disagree with me, I think season 6 is better than 5. And while I like Capaldi, I think season 8 was the weakest since 2, script-wise.

Me too! I loved 5 but if I had to pick my favourite from Eleven's era it would be 6. I loved the River arc and the Silence. I loved how each episode flowed into the next. I don't understand the dislike for 6.
I didn't dislike Series 6 as much as some do, but I tired of River Song quite quickly, almost to the point where her very presence in an episode would set my teeth on edge. She went from a character I loved and was intrigued by in her introduction to someone I couldn't wait to see the back of. But...different strokes and all that.
I loved River but I do agree that she was used too much in 6. After her big reveal in A Good Man Goes To War I would have been okay with not seeing her until 7.
I have to admit, I rewatched The Impossible Astronaut, Day of the Moon and The Wedding of River Song just before the original airing of The Day of the Doctor, and while I loved River in Astronaut, she starts doing my head in in Wedding.
However, I have occasionally thought of going back through River appearances, but in her order instead of the Doctor's. Big Finish are not helping me avoid that.

Let's Kill Hitler might not be the best thing ever, but I did like River's first encounter with the Doctor. Mainly because it reminding me to the funnier instances of the Doctor and Master squaring off in an attempt to outwit the other before being outwit but also outwitting that outwit. Basically the Moffat penned comedy sketch "The Curse of Fatal Death" with the Doctor and Master using time travel to one up each other repeatedly in the course of one scene. The exchange between River and the Doctor rings of that from gun to no bullets, to gun to banana, to letter opener to sonic screwdriver.
They strung together Rivers life story from her perspective in one of the Doctor Who confidentials. Clips plus an original new narration from Alex to explain the journey.
I think I'm the only one who loves Let's Kill Hitler, and doesn't get the dislike it sometimes gets. Then again, I also loved A Good Man Goes to War, and I think River is awesome, so I'm not unbiased.
That said, Season 6 is mixed. I loved the River stuff, there are a bunch of generally great episodes and A Christmas Carol (which I guess technically counts as Series 6) is one of my favorite episodes of Doctor Who. But, even though I kind of like the episodes they're in, The Silence is my most hated bad guys in Doctor Who, period. More than even the Slitheen, I wish the Silence never existed. So, the fact that they're basically the big bad guys of Series 6 drags it down a bit, otherwise it would probably be my favorite Series of NuWho. As it is, its up there, but I honestly have a hard time choosing a favorite Series.
