    There are plenty of "less good" episodes (Love and Monsters comes to mind . . . ) but I personally wouldn't skip a single one! Especially if you're the type that likes watching little things build and build and build and then they finally all make sense and work together :) There are people, and phrases, you could be on the lookout for, but I'm not sure how spoiley-y it would be to know about them ahead of time. The best part, for me, is rewatching to look for clues about things I know is going to happen in the future. For instance, I'm rewatching now, and I just finished season 3. The Doctor makes an offhand comment about a certain person he'd love to meet, and in season 4, he and his current companion meet that person. You would never think twice about it, but it's a nice little bit of foreshadowing, and I LOVE that kind of thing! Luckily, NuWho is pretty well peppered with it :)

    Don't skip anything. :) Even the ones we all groan about are part of the experience. And when you want someone to geek out over it all with, feel free to send me a FR. :D My whole Friends list here is full of Whovians, haha.

    I agree w/the other responders - even the bad episodes are pretty campy and have their moments. Just enjoy!

    Don't Skip any of them. And don't blink.
