I, for one, started out watching Tom Baker.  I saw most of his episodes
(shown on WHYY-Philadelphia), and then they switched to Jon Pertwee.  Now
I have seen most of his episodes, too, and I am pretty much converted to
Jon.  I have seen virtually none of the other Doctors.

Does anyone else out there hate Adrick and Teegan?  I wish they both would
become victims of the Master.

You are not alone. I too abhor Adrick! I am not too familiar with Teegan as
they are still showing just the Tom Baker episodes in the Boston area. 

I am sad to say that Tom Baker's reign as the doctor will soon end here when 
they bring on Peter Davison this summer or fall. Please no flames here as this
is just my personal opinion: I have seen some of the Peter Davison episodes
on one of the cable channels and was greatly disappointed (disgusted even!)
with him. Please don't take this as an assault on the doctor, I guess I am
so used to Tom's portrayal (he was "my first doctor" and I've been watching him
for about 2 years now) of the doctor that I cannot accept anyone else.
To me he is the one and only doctor of all time (no pun intended). Does anyone
else feel this way too?

I am not at all familiar with any of the other doctors (Pertwee, etc.) so I
really have nothing to say where they are concerned. I guess I'll have to find
something else to do every weeknight at 7:00 since I can't bring myself to look
at the "new doctor". I suppose I am more of a Tom Baker fan than I am a Doctor
Who fan. Oh well, to each his own.
