quizland master,
As a matter of fact, the first episode of Doctor Who (An Unearthly Child) aired on November 23rd, 1963, the day after Kennedy was killed. Almost no one watched Doctor Who in its premier showing, because everyone was glued to the news coverage of the JFK assassination. Verity Lambert, Doctor Who's producer had to argue -hard- with the BBC to re-transmit Doctor Who, on the basis that the show didn't get a fair chance to be seen. Verity Lambert was successful, and the show was rebroadcast the following week. The rest is history.

its so hard to pick a favorite, each regeneration has its own unique personality.....i guess if i heard to i would pick David Tennant.

My favorite show! A lifelong fan! Tom Baker's and Matt Smith's respective portrayal of the Doctor have been my favorites so far.
I'm very, very excited to see where Chris Chibnall and Jodie Whittaker take the show next!

Grew up watching Tom Baker. Matt Smith is my second favorite. Was upset when Matt's run ended. Thought it was too soon. He could have gone another season or two.
