The Best Doctor Whos We’ve Seen On TV

Doctor Who has been around for quite a long time and there’s been quite a few Doctor Whos in that period as well. While some have been quite successful, others have been the exact opposite. And since the show has existed for so long, it’s hard to remember who did what.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane and look at all the Doctor Who versions we’ve had, from worst to best. We’re going to leave the movie-only Doctor Who variations out, since the Doctor Who movies generally aren’t all that good to begin with.

Colin Baker (The Sixth Doctor)

The 80’s were already a pretty weird period, but a Doctor Who dressed in a colorful suit was never really going to work. And it didn’t – the ratings absolutely tanked at this time in history.

Sylvester McCoy (The Seventh Doctor)

While not as bad as the previous one, he was the result of the showrunners trying to do something different after the ratings had started tanking.

Patrick Troughton (The Second Doctor)

Honestly, the only good thing Patrick did was humanize Doctor Who and prepare people for the fact that multiple actors would be playing the role in the future.

William Hartnell (The First Doctor)

I mean, it was the sixties, the man did what he could. Back then they sadly forgot to make Doctor Who somewhat human-like, which really made his character a bit more bland.
