The 7th is Way worse. I think the 10th is one of the best. Mcoy is far better than Tennant (Although his first season didn't do him any favours) Ghost Light, Fenric, Survival & Greatest show prove that I'm glad someone else had the guts to say that. It seems like if you tell another Whovian that you like Sylvester McCoy, they go into some geeky epileptic fit and go on for 3 hours how Sylvester McCoy is the son of Satan. Pffft, geeks. His first year sucked because most of the episodes were written before they knew who would replace Colin Baker and McCoy didn't quite know how his Doctor would be characterized.

Eccleston's season has been better than both of Tennant's
Eccleston - Rose - Good - End of the world - Good - Unquiet Dead - Good - Aliens of London/WW3 - Poor - Dalek - Great - Long Game - weak - Father's day - good - Empty Child/DD - Awsome - Boomtown - S*** - Bad wolf - Poor (Way to OTT with the Pop Culture) - POTW - Great until the stupid Deus Ex ending
Tennant 1 - Christmas - Stupid - New Earth - crap - Tooth & Claw - Not bad - School - Good - GITF - Amazing - Rise/Age of steel - Good - Idiots Lantern - Abysmal - Planet/satan pit - Great - L&M - Too awful for words - Fear her - terrible - Army - Good - Doomsday - Terrible
Tennant 2 - Bride - Crap - Smith & Jones - Ok - Shakespere - Poor - Gridlock - awful - Manhatten/Evolution - Terrible - Lazarus - crap - 42 - Good - Human/Family - Awsome - Blink - Awsome - Utopia - good - Sound of drums - Good - LOTT - Abysmal
For me Eccleston's season was better than both of Tennant's, Tennants have been poor but did have some great episodes
I also prefered Eccleston's Doc

Surprisingly alot of Whovians have grown to like Mccoy over the years (Although still loathe his first season) Or that maybe that's just my experience

That's true Gotta admit Silver Nemesis was a bit turd, but that was because the Cybermen were complete wimps But i do like "The Happyness Patrol" even though loads of people hate it (The Kandyman wasn't THAT bad, Better than Ann Droid)

I like both the old and the new series. In fact it was the new series that got me looking into the old series. They are 2 different animals though. The old series would take like 12 episodes to do what the new series does in one. Very long and drawn out. So it's a commitment sitting down and watching an old series story. A lot of rock quarries possing as other planets. Hokey special effects. I still love them though. Especially the Tom Baker years.
The new ones are kind of annoying in the fact that the future is usually very unfuturistic. I mean I kind of expect humans not to be around looking just the same billions of years in the future. They treat 1 billion years like only 50 years have past. Other than that though I love the new series. No other complaints here about Tennet or anything else.

Silver Nemesis was just one big writer mish mash that could've been good but had too many villains running around (Nazis, Lady Peinforte, Cybermen) and the plot was too complicated. Though I did like that last shot where Ace asks him, "Doctor, who are you?" and he just smiles and puts a finger to his lips. And I mark for The Kandyman. He reminded me of Pimpbot 5000 from Late Night with Conan O'Brien.

That was a good bit I also think Greatest show in the Galaxy is an underrated classic
