Doctor Who Club

This made me giggle.

So I figured I should start watching some Doctor Who in my spare time. Problem is, I've never watched Doctor Who before. Is there a best place to start?
 
I would start with the first 'new' episode, called 'Rose'. It should be the firs one on Netflix.
If you don't have that much time and want to start on a newer episode, you could start on 'The Impossible Astronaut'. However, I wouldn't suggest this as you'll miss some important points on some characters.
 
That or there are good "standalone" episodes that could get you to understand the show. For those I would suggest episodes like "Blink" or the two part 'episode' "Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead"... I also suggest the episode "Midnight" because in my opinion it's fucking brilliant, but it's been debated.

Otherwise, start from S101, "Rose". It starts slow but gets better.

Another good set of episodes, "The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances".
 
I just read over my suggested episodes... I think I'm Moffat happy... not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
 
YES. :D

I also like 'Dalek' a lot, just because it's quite a good introduction to both the characters and some of the history of the show.

(Don't watch 'Blink' in the dark.)

^Ever.

Also, Dalek is a great episode. 'Nuff said.
 
Thanks again everyone. I just finished watching Season 1. I think it's safe to say that at this point, I am addicted beyond the point of return.
 
I don't have cable. Nor do I know anyone who does and watches Doctor Who.
*cries*

Maybe... Maybe we'll find a way to make some fish fingers and custard? *sadly lives in America*

Speaking of which, is vanilla pudding a good substitute for custard? Does anyone know?
 
Did anyone see the classic Daleks in the background in some bits? There was even an special weapons Dalek in the room where Rory landed!
