Inspired by a comment on the Tennant Love thread, this one is to show appreciation for the Ninth Doctor, who was for many of us our first Doctor.

    I loved Eccleston! He wasn't my first (Tom Baker was), but he was exactly what they needed to bring the series back successfully! And his little quirks were so endearing. I actually had a hard time with Tennant at first (then fell in love with the 10th Doctor... same with Smith/11)

    Yep, I was exactly that way with Tennant and Smith! Will probably take me a while to adjust to Capaldi too, but at least I have time to prepare myself...

    I am ready for Capaldi. Don't get me wrong, I loved Matt Smith. But I am hoping with Capaldi they can get back to some more classic Whoishness.

    Yes!! Exactly how I felt about Tenant and Smith, and both broke my hearts when they left the show.

    As much as I loved Eleven, Nine was my Doctor.

    Nine was my first doctor. I like him. Thought his leaving was the saddest. I liked 10 and 11, but after so many seasons and specials it wasn't hard to let go.

    I am totally ready for Capaldi. I can already tell from set photos that he's going to bring back some of the Classic style we love.

    But for now... NINE!!!

    I absolutely adore the Ninth. No one in my family really appreciates him, but he was my first Doctor and I'll always think he was totally fantastic.

    My reaction to your comment:

    This. I adored Matt Smith to bits, and honestly, he was the primary reason I even finished S6 and S7, but I am SO ready for a new arc with a new Doctor and new companions and, as you said, "more classic Whoishness". Lately DW hasn't really felt like DW (seriously, it was such a struggle for me to finish S7 and I was NOT fond of "The Time of the Doctor" or "The Day of the Doctor", or the apparent direction the series is going). I'm putting all my hopes on Capaldi, to be honest. Hopefully Mofatt doesn't screw it up because lately I've got the impression that he's, well...

    I don't see myself ever loving any doctor as much as I loved 9 (though I've yet to start classic who, so we'll see). I really liked 11 and I'm excited for 12, but I was so upset over the loss of 9 that I spent the next several seasons loathing 10. I understand why he didn't come back for more seasons, but it doesn't make me any less sad.

    It's funny I think how great the current doctor is then I go back and remember how much I loved 9.tom baker was my first doctor and will always be my favorite

    Really, I think one of the biggest injustices was that nine only got one season. I mean, I know the story, and it's his own darn fault and he sounds kind of like a jerk, but... he was an AMAZING Doctor.
