You are the kind of guy who watches Doctor Who and starts with An Unearthly Child

No better place to start, though you might miss some plot points thanks to the episodes BBC taped over.

I also started there in parallel to watching the new stuff and the First Doctor isn't that enjoyable. The second is cool but the episodes aren't, the third has good stories he himself isn't that cool, the fourth is perfection and that's how far I got.

You understand many things better when watching the old stuff and you see the series grow which is quite cool.

ehh, as someone with adhd i didn't get far into old who. I understand the constraints of the era and the budget but without something to stimulate my brain (like sound design, music, various camera shots, eccentric acting) i'd just rather read a book about it so i can imagine those myself

It was a fire and the missing episodes have been recovered from private collections

[-] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

My bad, been a while since I read about it and must've gotten confused between BBC and all the times American companies taped over old shows. (Including the goddamn moon landing, good job, NASA/

I knew some had been recovered over the years but we're all of them found?

[-] ryannathans@aussie.zone 1 points 8 months ago

I believe so, and it was a recent thing
