I, too, started with Baker (my mother used to be a huge Who fan and I remember watching it with her on PBS).
However, my favorite is probably Tennent. Smith is great and there are plenty of others that were very good. But I just really, really liked Tennent.
I started with Baker too, and he'll always be a favorite because of that, but I LOVE Smith. Love, love, love him. I thought I wouldn't like any as much as I liked Tennent, but he got a bit ... heavy ... towards the end. Smith is just a breath of fresh air with a sometimes deep twist. So much flavor. Love him.
I will soon be in 5 games:
Hybridity II, Multiple Roles, Toddler's Strike Back, and Rock/Paper/Scissors, and 100 Bullets
I only need 1 more person, but I would be more comfortable if I have a few alternates.
I will go ahead and say that as soon as I get out of 3 of these 5 games, so long as I have enough players to start, I will start the following Monday (unless I get out on a weekend, then I will extend it til the next Monday).
All my roles are finalized and have been checked by charlesx, who then told me he regretted it because he wished he could play. He may pop in every now and then with a vote count.
I had a blast running MvD, and I have learned a lot even since that one. I hope you guys enjoy this as much as I enjoyed putting together, and I will try not to die on purpose in more than 1 game out of impatience to start =]
Though, just to warn, the US broadcasts have a disconcerting habit of editing out many good parts. So go buy the DVD's.
(Actually if you've got Netflix you can instant watch almost all of the Ninth and Tenth Doctors' episodes, plus a moderate selection of prior Doctors. YouTube has classic series episodes, including the "telesnap presentations" of many of the wiped serials.)
If I was at a proper keyboard I'd drone on a bit longer as to why The Doctor is worth your time. Probably seems silly to say about a fictional character but he's one of my heroes and his stories have had a huge influence on me.
Listening to you drone on is probably half the reason I signed up for this!
I really liked the 9th Doctor, but couldn't get much of a handle on Tennant until Waters of Mars, and loved the last bunch of Movies ending his run. I haven't really given Smith a fair shake.
Ah, that's a shame because he's really quite exceptional (though I still have trouble with the fact he's younger than me...but he 'acts old', if that makes sense.)
Bit of something for everyone with him...he's got Tennant's exuberance, Troughton's "wolf-in-sheep's-clothing" (silly and then -bam!-), Hartnell's "magic fingers" and "old soul" and bit of impatience with humans, T. Baker's "strangeness", McCoy's "long-range cleverness"...kind-of a jack-of-all-personalities Doctor and he does it amazingly well.
Between his portrayal and Moffat's scripts the series has a real zest and joy and energy that's almost invigorating.
"Nobody important? That's amazing. You know, in 900 years of traveling time and space I've never met someone who wasn't important."

Don't forget Pertwee's gravitas!
The WildC.A.T.s Major KO's
1.Common Batman from Batman
Probably, but if I get a unanimous call from everyone to start, I will start before then =]
Well, I can tell you for a fact that my game won't be starting for at least another 2 weeks. So I wouldn't really factor that one into your schedule just yet.
