Mine is Columbo!
It's way before my time but I watched it first with my parents when I was 14 and I've been hooked ever since. I love his character, I love the plots for the eps and I love the humour which I do understand for once..
Just one more thing!
It won 13 Emmys.
Doctor Who (and its expanded spinoffs universe) - my television soulmate - is such a constant fixation in my life that for decades there's been no gap long enough to fit 'going back to' in the sense I think you might mean - ie. an old friend taken down off the shelf and dusted off and fallen in love with/watch all over again.
Some ones that fall into that dormancy/re-activation cycle:
Blake's 7
Northern Exposure
Star Cops
Sapphire and Steel
Oh yes, Columbo is great comfort watching. There's a series they should never try to re-make (I hate remakes in general): Peter Falk is irreplaceable.
I see you're a 5th Doctor fan. Good one! I love Peter Davison as the Doctor, I also thought he had a great group as his Team Tardis - Nyssa, Adric and Tegan. I often find the modern companions aren't especially good or maybe that's just me lol.
Do you have a fav ep? I liked The Visitation and Black Orchid with 5. I thought they were seriously underrated.
Who's your own favourite? And story too, if I may ask?
So do I! I think he will bring a different perspective.
Glad you are looking forward to the new Doctor Who!
I am! I think he will be a good Doctor.
Very much so! I'm hearing really exciting things about how he's playing it and how blown away everyone on the production is with his and Millie's performances.
Are you looking forward to the next Doctor Who Ncuti Gatwa?
Ah, saw you answered this already up-thread. Good old Matt! We've never had a bad Doctor, but one incarnation/era always seems to imprint on our heart as a personal epicentre. Childhood nostalgia is a powerful thing, and a large part of who we become.
