getting into doctor who as a kid: yeah so you really don't need any previous knowledge to enjoy the show, most episodes - sure, except some series finales! - work fine as stand-alones. don't let the longevity of doctor who intimidate you, but if you want a good starting point, series 1, series 5 or series 10 could be good picks :D

getting into doctor who as a twentysomething: I can't have a substantial discussion about the time war without citing kurt vonnegut's slaughterhouse five so keep that in mind, but then again my own perspective is limited by the fact I refuse to start gallifrey without at least a respectful working knowledge of the political worldbuilding contributed by the VNAs. still working through the EDAs as of now (please don't let me start talking about them and t s eliot's The Wasteland, I won't stop,) but ideally i'd also like to read Machiavelli's The Prince beforehand, too. craziest reveal in doctor who? ... oh, that river is amy and rory's daughter? me personally I think about the barn scene in Listen every day..... however I still wonder if we will ever find out whether space babies intentionally made a faction paradox reference. now THAT would be wild

If someone says they’re a Doctor Who fan, I think that basically tells you next to nothing about what kind of nerd they actually are. Like they could be a cranky old man who’s been watching it for decades, they could be one of those white ladies who makes all the crochet daleks and “accio tardis” keychains on etsy, or they could be like… one of us. You never know

The Doctor flinched when they touched him. 'I only wanted to be part of the Family,' he said. 'I went through all the correct procedures. Gene weaving, birth trauma, education, acne. . . obviously it wasn't enough.'

Glospin threw and got an eleven to start. 'I thought you were an infiltrator or a changeling. An un-Gallifreyan.'

'That's a good Agency word,' said the Doctor. He threw the die and got a six. 'I know another good word. Cuckoo. What do you think?'

DOCTOR: I'm a sort of travelling time expert. As you can see, Earth's been habitable for several thousand years, but they didn't wake up. Why? Clock stopped. Overslept. So here I am.  VURAL: Clock expert?  DOCTOR: Horologist, actually. And chronometrist. I just love clocks. Atomic clocks, wall quartz clocks, grandfather clocks  ERAK: He's still lying.  VURAL: Shut up, Erak.  DOCTOR: Cuckoo clocks.
