I liked the darker energy that Eccleston brought to the Doctor, but I also felt like his portrayal was a little jarringly dissonant at times, and he took about half a season to really find his voice. Tennant played a version of the Doctor that, in retrospect, I find rather distasteful, but he did it well and consistently and was always a joy to watch as an actor even when I didn't like the character he was being made to play. So I really can't decide. Matt Smith trumps them both. :D[/quote] Hmmmm...I do think Smith has gotten into his groove as the Doctor, but I still think I prefer Eccelston. He had such great gravity to him, like he was paying penance for the darker things he did in the past (killing all the Time Lords and Daleks to end the Time War). And the chemistry with Rose was good too. But on the other hand Tennant real came into the role with the episodes with the Master in them and also the Finale of Season 4 with Rassilon. I guess they all add their own nuances to the Doctor as a whole.
