I have been kind of interested in seeing Genesis of the Daleks sometime.

It's an incredible episode, many people's favorite (including one of mine). Oh, and for a good intro to Sylvester McCoy's doctor, there's Remembrance of the Daleks, another one of my favorites.

I can only stomach so much of Tenant, and his even-worse companions. Moments of brilliance, wallowing in an endless stream of chick-flick goo.

I also like the longer length of the older episodes... they take time to settle in to an atmosphere you can immerse yourself in and feel a little sorry when it's over.
