I love the eleventh! His facial expressions, capable of conveying childlike spontaneity, joy, and at the same time sadness, and even the ability to turn into a frightening person - this is phenomenal. At one moment you rejoice with him, at another moment you see an old man in his young face. In a speech to Akhatan, he suddenly changes into a lonely Doctor with pain in his soul, although before that he joked lightheartedly. This is amazing! But I also really like the twelfth Doctor. His story is more mature and serious. It seems to me that this is a logical continuation, because time passes and not only the Doctor grows old, but we too... And it is logical that the series should grow up with us.
My list of NuWho doctors worst to best: 7. 13 (obvious reasons) 6. 14 (amazing but only had 3 episodes so naturally low on the list) 5. 15 (been really good so far, but we've only seen 1 season so far) 4. 9 (he had one season and it was amazing. I might be bias because Rose is my favourite companion ever) 3. 12 (had an absolutely amazing performance, he could be funny, sad, dark, happy but it was always just so great) 2. 10 (obvious reasons) 1. 11 (his child-like personality and quirkiness was so unique and he will probably always be my favourite)
dont flame but for me it goes (worst to best): 13 (Obvious) 15 (haven't watched but can't be worse then 13) 14 (Love tennent but not this as much) 9 (same reason) 11 (Loved it) 10 (Loved it more) 12 (Larger than love)
For some reason right now as of season 1, Ncuti hasnt clicked yet for me. Its odd because all the ingredients are there, but theres just something a bit off, like theres no dark side to his character at all that made Capaldi, Eccelston and Tennant shine. Hopefully that will change soon!
Yeah I feel you, they’ve branded 15 as the recovered version of 14s trauma that he’s carrying from 13, but I love a dark doctor, hope that changes soon too 👌
@@CybusIndustriesEmployee thing is, 15 is already displaying old toxic traits like non expression or lying so how much rehab out of order did he really have?
I find Matt Smith had a more believable dark side. Eccleston and Tennant only had a dark past, but the Eleventh Doctor really can be evil in his plans.
My list of Nuwho Doctors from best to worst is ⬇️ (I won’t be ranking 15 yet until his era is over, because I don’t want to incorrectly judge him before he’s done) 1. Eleven - I grew up watching his era and I love his personality, companions (I was named after Rory lol), and his storylines the most out of all the doctors- he may not be everybody’s cup of tea but he sure is mine. 2. Ten - Ten is very close to Eleven in terms of my ranking, he has a great personality, character arcs, and I absolutely love the Doctor and Donna as a pairing 3. Nine - The reason I like nine is because without him, doctor who wouldn’t be continued. His era of doctor who was short, but effective in bringing in new viewers and fans of the show. I do think some episodes are a bit childish (Especially the Slitheen 💀) but the other episodes make up for that. Plus the finale of nine’s era was phenomenal. 4. Twelve - I think twelve gets so much hate from people that haven’t even watched his era. I’ll admit I was a bit stubborn to watch the doctor be an old man because I wasn’t used to it in the Nuwho eras, but the writing is PHENOMENAL. The most I can say about twelve is that I think he really captures the doctor’s “essence” and his writing is exceptional. 5. Fourteen - Although fourteen was only present for the 60th anniversary special (that’s why I won’t rank him high) I still love him because I love ten and David Tennant in general, and he’s basically just ten in a different suit 💀 6. Thirteen - I really tried to like Thirteen because I like Jodie Whitaker, but Chris Chibnall’s writing for her was SO BAD. I could barely get through thirteen because the writing was so bad I feel like even I could do better. Nothing was really memorable from her era and I think choosing to have three companions at the start was way too many, even two seems to be too much sometimes! (and that’s coming from someone who loves amy and rory, and rose and mickey) One thing I hate though is that people use her era as an excuse to be sexist, 13 being bad has nothing to do with her gender, it has everything to do with the horrendous writing (Thanks Chris Chibnall! 🙄) Anyways that’s my list 🤷🏼♂️
I love seeing all the 11 love here in the comments. it literally makes my heart ache thinking how we could've gotten so much more of him and clara. matt smith literally said he regrets it. ugh. sobs.
I thought I would never like Matt Smith's Doctor too much because I really loved Tennant's, but in the end I loved 11th too. They are my 2 favourite modern Doctors by far (I also like Capaldi's very much).
My List of NuWho: 6: 13 (Didn't hate her, just none of her episode really clicked with me) 5: 14 (Not much out of him) 4: 15 (Wasn't bad so far, but I like the others better) 3: 9 (My first doctor wish I could put him higher but the other 3 had more time for me to get a attached to.) 2: 12 (His dynamic with clara was funny, emotional, and captivating. Out of all the doctors, he felt like he was constantly trying to teach people. He's also just cool, a doctor that can shred. And his speeches are just so good) 1: 10 and 11 (could never pick between either of them. their both just good in their own right. 10 was a tragic and had the most human-like emotion. And 11's quirkiness and personality is just so interesting and funny to watch. AND they both have shown on multiple occasions that The Doctor is a force to be wreckened with, 9 and 12 show that side of the doctor but the impact of 10 and 11's serious side is just so felt)
I've seen Matt on stage and I honestly think he's the best actor working today. He was my favourite Doctor, but I think David got the better stories, particularly in Seasons 3 & 4. Have never managed to see David in the flesh as he's so immensely popular but that will be remedied in December when I see Macbeth. He's number 2. Chris would be #3 - it would have been great to have seen more of him. (Saw him in A Christmas Carol last, er, Christmas.) Never fully warmed to Peter and I thought some of his stories were awful. But he is #4. (Saw him on stage too, with Zoe Wanamaker.) Never warmed to Jodie at all. Terrible performance, dreadful scripts, a gang of drama school dropouts and a wasted Bradley Walsh. I counted up a little while ago and there are 17 Jodie episode I have never seen, because I abandoned a show that I've watched since 1964 after the travesty of Orphan 55. (I did watch the Tesla one because I was interested in Tesla, but it was beyond bad.) But Jodie is #5 because Ncuti Gatwa's eight episodes were so terrible, with a central performance of such mind-numbing ineptitude, that I am seriously debating stopping again. The one with the Beatles is quite possibly the worst 45 minutes of TV i have ever seen. I was so glad when it was announced that RTD was coming back, but in the intervening years he has clearly been kidnapped and replaced by a talentless imbecile. Maybe a Slitheen. And the worst thing of all is . . . You may have gathered that I like to go to the theatre and see famous actors in person. They're usually very good, because they wouldn't be picked for Doctor Who if they weren't. But I turned down the chance to see Jodie this autumn, have zero interest in her. Thing is though, that before I saw him anywhere, I bought a ticket to see Ncuti in The Importance of Being Earnest at the National Theatre over Christmas. He might surprise me, I hope he does. [I've also seen Arthur Darville three times, Jenna Coleman twice, Alex Kingston, Derek Jacobi, Sophie Okenedo and David Morrisey. Plus, roll drums, Colin Morgan and Lesley Sharp from this most excellent 'Midnight'.]
Never really thought about this before probably something like: 12 - capaldi has everything the doctor needs 11 - a lot of childhood nostaglia for this one 15 - one of the most unique takes we've had on the doctor 14 - a matured 10 10 - an immature 14 9 - great actor, very subtle characterisation for only one season though 13 - doesn't even really feel like the doctor, she just has 11s quirk but nothing under the surface
David tennant is my favourite, Christopher eccelsten was fantastic but he only had one season,Matt smith was amazing in series 5 but after that his version of the doctor became way too silly and was hard to take seriously,Peter capaldi got better and better with each season,it is interesting going back and watching his development but I still don't really enjoy him that much in series 8,he's a little too gruff,Jodie Whittaker was the first doctor I've seen that I never understood,she never felt like the doctor to me and her personality seemed to shift from episode to episode,David tennant I enjoyed from start to finish even if not every episode was that great
A list of doctors isn’t a proper list if you only count from Eckleson forward (though I get that those episodes are more accessible and I’m not going to attempt a complete list myself). In the modern incarnations, I often had trouble adjusting to the new doctor (with the exceptions of DT and TWD). However, they all grew on me over time. There was a relationship that developed or revealed a masked trait in the new doctor or the doctor faced a nearly impossible situation with the right combination of cheek and faith in humanity/friends to win me over. Admittedly, sometimes that meant letting the series run while playing Baldur’s Gate 2 because it didn’t hold my attention well enough on its own, but I digress. Thanks for the list and sharing your perspective!
@@LucasGorz yes 🙌 I understand your point however I’ve only seen the 3rd, 4th and 7th doctors so it would be unfair to include all from my perspective 👌
My doctors ranked out of the few I have seen 1. Matt Smith (11) 2. Peter Capaldi (12) 3. David Tennant (10) 4. Ncuti Gatwa (15) 5. William Hartnell (1) 6. Jodie Whittaker (13) 7. Christopher Eccleston (9) 8. David Tennant (14) 9. John Hurt (War Doctor) 10. Jo Martin (Fugitive Doctor)
WOWW my exact thoughts!! Well except for David Tennant as the 14th doctor, I'd put him above Ncuti but I admit that's from bias and the sheer joy I got when I saw he was being paired with Catherine Tate again, they're absolutely my favourite duo. I'm literally gonna have to save this to send as a response whenever anyone asks for my ranking of the doctors
1st - either 9 or 12 , and I will hound anyone who says I can't waver between 2 2 - either the 12 or 9 , depending on the mood above 3 - 11 , he had the toughest act to follow after 10 and came out as a brilliant Doctor 4 - Jo Martin , yeah I'm allowed so she goes in here. Awesome one-off who really shone with the short time she had. 5 - 10 , the more I look back at his the less I like. Almost a cliché of a performance that lacked enough mystery, just had more face-pulling. 6 - John Hurt, it was a kinda meh doctor. I didn't think the story needed it. 7 - 13th or 15th I value both people as actors, but ye gods its the writing that's letting them down 8 - [blank] I refuse to put one in last position as all are clearly trying, and as in my 7th, not all the limitations are their fault. 9 - [blank] another blank spot for no reason other than just pointlessly emphasizing my remark about no one being last. Sue me! 10 - My own personal doctor. The rash keeps coming back and that cream just seems to make it worse. Anyway, for anyone who has read this far down my particular comment, I thank you but, rather like me , you probably should have found something more rewarding to do with your time! Have a great day all.🙂
I really get this list. I grew watching Cristopher's and Tennant's eras back in the early 2010's (and sometime before) and I was always updated on Doctor Who. I remember when Matt Smith was firstly coming to the screen and he was like "the new fever of the moment" and perhaps he went well along most people, but, I also couldn't really get into him that much. I've watched all the new series and more than twice to say he's my least preferable Doctor. He did get into the character but I think his writting has left us with a big gap. While he recorded 3 series as also did Tennant but Matt doing it in less time, the fact that he was almost always the same until the end of his era and only had always the same 2 companions, often times River (which was always amazing to have her in an episode) and, later on, Clara in series 7 halfway (which I actually liked his time with Clara, even though it was very short), it lacked quite some variety to it. Cristopher had Rose to stick with for the entirety of series 1 and quite a present family, by giving us contact to her mom and her father's history and Mickey also being present, plus they felt real in the way they interacted and their view on the Doctor so far. We had her present with her family during Tennant's era and, additionally, what makes series 2 so cool is the fact that we get what some of us always expected from the Doctor Who: a very cool companion (she was brave sometimes as well) and a screen catching, cool personality and good looking Doctor traveling together doing random stuff around everywhere and trying new things. Even when she had fallen into the parallel universe she was still there, trying to make contact and showed up in series 4, which leaves us with all series from 1 to 4 with her present (although 3 was much less) and she being a companion that interacted directly with the Doctor after a regeneration. Thus, not to mention Tennant's countless companions and amount of people who got into his TARDIS and even helped control it. 11th just solved things in a way that was mostly abstract and involving emotions as the supreme power, usually love against the monsters, but he also had a very extreme and uncontrolled temper at times. I do like some episodes tho and can get through watching him again, though I believe he's too overrated. When Peter Capaldi was debuted as the Doctor and I heard the new intro, saw the new theme and watched some of series 8 (while they were still filming everything over the years) I just hated it. Also, an older Doctor would mean a less agile and slug like Doctor again, right? Nope, I watched him now, everything and more than once. He was absolutely screen catching.. from series 8 horrible drama and Clara mistreating him for no reason other than her egocentrism and Danny simply existing, Peter Capaldi as the Doctor was still the best we could get in an entire episode. After series 8 everything was just going good to better. Clara good better, no more useless drama like before and he was being more natural and his hair grew as well. Some scenes of Peter Capaldi are just enough to give chills with 1 second of frame and the soundtrack they made for him was wonderfully amazing and spectacular. You can see that he's a growing Doctor, not the guy to who gets intrigued with anything or live with the pains of his past except when he's dying, but he's the Doctor, he's the most real and true human being you'd ever encounter in that universe. His speeches, personality, splendid acting, face, sarcastic humor, his so feared eyebrows and amazing writing at his 2 last series and even some series 8 episodes just make him legitimately THE DOCTOR! He looks like the Doctor, he spreads safety, not fear unlike 11; he wisely raises his voice and he can get in touch with anybody and gets things running. He's also one of the smartest Doctors but even when he doesn't knows anything or how to solve it he still goes on and tried his best. The fact he chose that face shows that he did well in listening to Donna to at least save one life. He is my Doctor.
@@EduardoLanzilotiMeh, I find the Tenth Doctor era so soap opera. Frankly I always found it odd the way everyone interacts with the Tenth Doctor, no one sees him as an alien but as a love interest (or in Donna's case, a skinny friend). At least the Ponds look surprised to see him. I also don't like Tennant getting stuck in his depressing, "oh Rose" "Oh, I miss Rose" phase, I didn't see much development in him. Unlike the Eleventh Doctor who really changed between seasons.
@@mayotango1317 I get wym, Tennant era really has that vibe. Anyway, each Doctor era will bring something that will please some watchers more than others. For me, the way other Doctors solves the problems and the different number of companions really matters a lot.
I don't like Ncuti's Doctor because he's too passive and emotional, and all of the time he spent crying should've been used to fix things. The Doctor doesn't cry when there are things to do and lives at stake. Also, Ncuti's Doctor has only saved the day _twice_ in his first series (those being the Christmas special and series finale), and has had to wait for _other_ people to do it for him; even _Jodie's_ Doctor was more useful than him.
I see your point but every doctor incarnation is different and I really like ncuti showing a doctor who is more in touch with his emotions, I do think the more he cries, the less impactful it is but it’s just the traits of his doctor.
@@CybusIndustriesEmployee The issue mainly stems from the fact that he stands and does nothing _but_ cry; it affects his ability to save people, and he's done nothing to rectify this flaw.
My list from top to bottom: 11 12 9 10 13 14 And then bc we haven’t seen all of 15 I won’t put him on here but if I had to pick I would have him between 10 and 13 for now
Best: 12, 11, 4, 2, 8, 7, 6, 10, 13, 9, 1, 5, 14, 3, 15 15 just hasn't clicked for me - I think half of that is the script, apart from Boom he gotten given very little material I could see any Doctor pulling off. 6 and 8 are higher than they might have been because of their audio redemption. And 11 so close to the bottom? For shame!
Well...I completely get that you don't click with 11. I have Doctors I just don't click with, too, but if I had to make my own personal ranking....We start off the same with 13, and then 14. I would have to put 15 next, because I definitely did not click with Gatwa as a Doctor. I haven't seen him in anything else, but he just fell flat for me as the doctor. After those 3 there is a huge gap before we continue with 12. I liked him, I really did, but of all the doctors until his time, his tenure had the most little things that bothered me, so he does sadly not share the joint first place of the remaining doctors. I would put him kinda at the same place as the War Doctor, though. And on First place without any specific order because all three of them have very special places in my heart in their own way we have Smith, Tennant and Eccleston. Everyone has their Doctor and own opinions regarding rankings and that is okay. It would be boring if everyone had the same favorites. Where would you place the War Doctor?
You have some very good points, I love the war doctor, I just felt like because we only saw 50 minutes of him, it just seemed unfair to rank, but I’d probably tie him with capaldi, or if I had to, just put him under capaldi, I loved war doctor but it’s hard to beat 12, 9 & 10 for me aha 😂
my problem with 11 is that, he has amazing traits that can make him a great character. he shows so many signs of what 10 went through with that whole "Time Lord Victorious" I mean, true, 10 shut that down and decided to die good, but in many places we can notice that all those traits has been magnified in 11. but instead of making a good story out of it, a good nice drama and a chance for development, the show runner instead glorifies those traits, making him more unlikable for me and there comes the part where he's so sexualised. that's the irredeemable part for me
15. 8th Doctor 14. 14th Doctor 13. 15th Doctor 12. 12th Doctor 11. 9th Doctor 10. 13th Doctor 9. 5th Doctor 8. 7th Doctor 7. 1st Doctor 6. 6th Doctor 5. 3rd Doctor 4. 10th Doctor 3. 11th Doctor 2. 4th Doctor 1. 2nd Doctor
@@CybusIndustriesEmployee I can only respond with what I have seen her do... and she was not good in anything. Please note, that by describing her as "not good" I am being kind about her performances.
Complete trash list and opinion totally disregarded. Likely, you put Matt Smith so low to generate controversy and 'engagement' but all you ended up doing was making a bad video.
@@arandombard1197 believe it or not, everybody thinks differently, I don’t like Matt smith as a doctor, that’s an opinion I’ve stood by for years, you obviously disagree and that’s fine 👌
@@ysthafellgynghori8423 I think you have to consider that each doctors incarnations character is different, so I think it’s impossible to find a doctor who is wrong for the role, however I agree that I don’t like his doctor as much as the otjers

You have a very eventful life in terms of doctor who 😆
Never really thought about this before probably something like:
12 - capaldi has everything the doctor needs
11 - a lot of childhood nostaglia for this one
15 - one of the most unique takes we've had on the doctor
14 - a matured 10
10 - an immature 14
9 - great actor, very subtle characterisation for only one season though
13 - doesn't even really feel like the doctor, she just has 11s quirk but nothing under the surface
You have gone deeeep, but you are making a lot of sense...
David tennant is my favourite, Christopher eccelsten was fantastic but he only had one season,Matt smith was amazing in series 5 but after that his version of the doctor became way too silly and was hard to take seriously,Peter capaldi got better and better with each season,it is interesting going back and watching his development but I still don't really enjoy him that much in series 8,he's a little too gruff,Jodie Whittaker was the first doctor I've seen that I never understood,she never felt like the doctor to me and her personality seemed to shift from episode to episode,David tennant I enjoyed from start to finish even if not every episode was that great
You have some great takes. Why not check out my latest video, its about martha being mistreated by 10, would love to hear your thoughts?
@@CybusIndustriesEmployee Thanks,when it comes to doctor who I know what I enjoy and I will, really enjoying your videos so far
A list of doctors isn’t a proper list if you only count from Eckleson forward (though I get that those episodes are more accessible and I’m not going to attempt a complete list myself).
In the modern incarnations, I often had trouble adjusting to the new doctor (with the exceptions of DT and TWD). However, they all grew on me over time. There was a relationship that developed or revealed a masked trait in the new doctor or the doctor faced a nearly impossible situation with the right combination of cheek and faith in humanity/friends to win me over. Admittedly, sometimes that meant letting the series run while playing Baldur’s Gate 2 because it didn’t hold my attention well enough on its own, but I digress.
Thanks for the list and sharing your perspective!
@@LucasGorz yes 🙌 I understand your point however I’ve only seen the 3rd, 4th and 7th doctors so it would be unfair to include all from my perspective 👌
My doctors ranked out of the few I have seen
1. Matt Smith (11)
2. Peter Capaldi (12)
3. David Tennant (10)
4. Ncuti Gatwa (15)
5. William Hartnell (1)
6. Jodie Whittaker (13)
7. Christopher Eccleston (9)
8. David Tennant (14)
9. John Hurt (War Doctor)

Very good list 👌
For me
1. 11
2. 10
3. 9
4. 12
5. 15
6. 14
7. 13
That is a very good ranking 👌
my list is the same- 10 and 11 are very close for me although I like 11 more because I grew up watching his era
@@rorito_dorito same here. I hopped on at the end of 11’s run, and 10 is my favorite to watch, but 11 just holds a special place in my heart. P
WOWW my exact thoughts!! Well except for David Tennant as the 14th doctor, I'd put him above Ncuti but I admit that's from bias and the sheer joy I got when I saw he was being paired with Catherine Tate again, they're absolutely my favourite duo. I'm literally gonna have to save this to send as a response whenever anyone asks for my ranking of the doctors
@@nick.bummer aha, I thought I’d be getting more hate for putting Matt smith low down

6: matt smith
5: ncuti gatwa
4: david tennant (14)
3: peter capaldi
2: christopher eccleston

10/14
12
15

11
13
War
Fugitive
Very very good list
1st - either 9 or 12 , and I will hound anyone who says I can't waver between 2
2 - either the 12 or 9 , depending on the mood above
3 - 11 , he had the toughest act to follow after 10 and came out as a brilliant Doctor
4 - Jo Martin , yeah I'm allowed so she goes in here. Awesome one-off who really shone with the short time she had.
5 - 10 , the more I look back at his the less I like. Almost a cliché of a performance that lacked enough mystery, just had more face-pulling.
6 - John Hurt, it was a kinda meh doctor. I didn't think the story needed it.
7 - 13th or 15th I value both people as actors, but ye gods its the writing that's letting them down
8 - [blank] I refuse to put one in last position as all are clearly trying, and as in my 7th, not all the limitations are their fault.
9 - [blank] another blank spot for no reason other than just pointlessly emphasizing my remark about no one being last. Sue me!
10 - My own personal doctor. The rash keeps coming back and that cream just seems to make it worse.
Anyway, for anyone who has read this far down my particular comment, I thank you but, rather like me , you probably should have found something more rewarding to do with your time! Have a great day all.🙂

Great list
The best doctor is 10.
I agree
I really get this list. I grew watching Cristopher's and Tennant's eras back in the early 2010's (and sometime before) and I was always updated on Doctor Who. I remember when Matt Smith was firstly coming to the screen and he was like "the new fever of the moment" and perhaps he went well along most people, but, I also couldn't really get into him that much.
I've watched all the new series and more than twice to say he's my least preferable Doctor. He did get into the character but I think his writting has left us with a big gap. While he recorded 3 series as also did Tennant but Matt doing it in less time, the fact that he was almost always the same until the end of his era and only had always the same 2 companions, often times River (which was always amazing to have her in an episode) and, later on, Clara in series 7 halfway (which I actually liked his time with Clara, even though it was very short), it lacked quite some variety to it.
Cristopher had Rose to stick with for the entirety of series 1 and quite a present family, by giving us contact to her mom and her father's history and Mickey also being present, plus they felt real in the way they interacted and their view on the Doctor so far. We had her present with her family during Tennant's era and, additionally, what makes series 2 so cool is the fact that we get what some of us always expected from the Doctor Who: a very cool companion (she was brave sometimes as well) and a screen catching, cool personality and good looking Doctor traveling together doing random stuff around everywhere and trying new things. Even when she had fallen into the parallel universe she was still there, trying to make contact and showed up in series 4, which leaves us with all series from 1 to 4 with her present (although 3 was much less) and she being a companion that interacted directly with the Doctor after a regeneration. Thus, not to mention Tennant's countless companions and amount of people who got into his TARDIS and even helped control it.
11th just solved things in a way that was mostly abstract and involving emotions as the supreme power, usually love against the monsters, but he also had a very extreme and uncontrolled temper at times. I do like some episodes tho and can get through watching him again, though I believe he's too overrated.
When Peter Capaldi was debuted as the Doctor and I heard the new intro, saw the new theme and watched some of series 8 (while they were still filming everything over the years) I just hated it. Also, an older Doctor would mean a less agile and slug like Doctor again, right? Nope, I watched him now, everything and more than once. He was absolutely screen catching.. from series 8 horrible drama and Clara mistreating him for no reason other than her egocentrism and Danny simply existing, Peter Capaldi as the Doctor was still the best we could get in an entire episode. After series 8 everything was just going good to better. Clara good better, no more useless drama like before and he was being more natural and his hair grew as well. Some scenes of Peter Capaldi are just enough to give chills with 1 second of frame and the soundtrack they made for him was wonderfully amazing and spectacular. You can see that he's a growing Doctor, not the guy to who gets intrigued with anything or live with the pains of his past except when he's dying, but he's the Doctor, he's the most real and true human being you'd ever encounter in that universe. His speeches, personality, splendid acting, face, sarcastic humor, his so feared eyebrows and amazing writing at his 2 last series and even some series 8 episodes just make him legitimately THE DOCTOR! He looks like the Doctor, he spreads safety, not fear unlike 11; he wisely raises his voice and he can get in touch with anybody and gets things running. He's also one of the smartest Doctors but even when he doesn't knows anything or how to solve it he still goes on and tried his best. The fact he chose that face shows that he did well in listening to Donna to at least save one life. He is my Doctor.
I agree with every word you said 😂 Capaldi is a gem as the doctor and I will make a full video on him very soon, lovely guy in person too 👌
He really gives that feeling
@@EduardoLanzilotiMeh, I find the Tenth Doctor era so soap opera.
Frankly I always found it odd the way everyone interacts with the Tenth Doctor, no one sees him as an alien but as a love interest (or in Donna's case, a skinny friend). At least the Ponds look surprised to see him.
I also don't like Tennant getting stuck in his depressing, "oh Rose" "Oh, I miss Rose" phase, I didn't see much development in him.
Unlike the Eleventh Doctor who really changed between seasons.
@@mayotango1317 I get wym, Tennant era really has that vibe. Anyway, each Doctor era will bring something that will please some watchers more than others. For me, the way other Doctors solves the problems and the different number of companions really matters a lot.
@@mayotango1317 you're just an ignorant who doesn't even know what change is
I don't like Ncuti's Doctor because he's too passive and emotional, and all of the time he spent crying should've been used to fix things. The Doctor doesn't cry when there are things to do and lives at stake.
Also, Ncuti's Doctor has only saved the day _twice_ in his first series (those being the Christmas special and series finale), and has had to wait for _other_ people to do it for him; even _Jodie's_ Doctor was more useful than him.
I see your point but every doctor incarnation is different and I really like ncuti showing a doctor who is more in touch with his emotions, I do think the more he cries, the less impactful it is but it’s just the traits of his doctor.
@@CybusIndustriesEmployee The issue mainly stems from the fact that he stands and does nothing _but_ cry; it affects his ability to save people, and he's done nothing to rectify this flaw.
@@Jackson-ub1uv U are right on that one
My list from top to bottom:
11
12
9
10
13
14
And then bc we haven’t seen all of 15 I won’t put him on here but if I had to pick I would have him between 10 and 13 for now
Verryyyy solid list 👌
Best:
12, 11, 4, 2, 8, 7, 6, 10, 13, 9, 1, 5, 14, 3, 15
15 just hasn't clicked for me - I think half of that is the script, apart from Boom he gotten given very little material I could see any Doctor pulling off.
6 and 8 are higher than they might have been because of their audio redemption.
And 11 so close to the bottom? For shame!
Yeah I feel you on that one
Well...I completely get that you don't click with 11. I have Doctors I just don't click with, too, but if I had to make my own personal ranking....We start off the same with 13, and then 14. I would have to put 15 next, because I definitely did not click with Gatwa as a Doctor. I haven't seen him in anything else, but he just fell flat for me as the doctor. After those 3 there is a huge gap before we continue with 12. I liked him, I really did, but of all the doctors until his time, his tenure had the most little things that bothered me, so he does sadly not share the joint first place of the remaining doctors. I would put him kinda at the same place as the War Doctor, though. And on First place without any specific order because all three of them have very special places in my heart in their own way we have Smith, Tennant and Eccleston. Everyone has their Doctor and own opinions regarding rankings and that is okay. It would be boring if everyone had the same favorites. Where would you place the War Doctor?
You have some very good points, I love the war doctor, I just felt like because we only saw 50 minutes of him, it just seemed unfair to rank, but I’d probably tie him with capaldi, or if I had to, just put him under capaldi, I loved war doctor but it’s hard to beat 12, 9 & 10 for me aha 😂
my problem with 11 is that, he has amazing traits that can make him a great character. he shows so many signs of what 10 went through with that whole "Time Lord Victorious" I mean, true, 10 shut that down and decided to die good, but in many places we can notice that all those traits has been magnified in 11. but instead of making a good story out of it, a good nice drama and a chance for development, the show runner instead glorifies those traits, making him more unlikable for me and there comes the part where he's so sexualised. that's the irredeemable part for me
