If you're just now looking to check it out, my suggestion would be to start where I did with the first episode of the 9th Doctor (plus "Doctor Who Explained"), then go forward through the series with the 10th (David Tennant) and 11th (Matt Smith) Doctors to get ready for the Christmas broadcast when 11 will regenerate into the 12th Doctor.

I recently watched/listened while working to what netflix had from 63-89 but to be honest it was not even as close to enjoyable as the 9 thru 11th Dr's. Of course I am watching for the first time as a near 50 year old versus being a child full of amazement leaving fond memories. Thou I will say out of the early Dr's I like Tom Baker the best and having him in the 50th Special was kinda brilliant
