I want to get into Doctor Who, but it seems daunting and massive, any suggestions where to start? (startrek.website)

Should I watch all 20 years of the original run or just begin with the new one which I think is been around for 15 years? What are the best episodes? I've seen only a handful of the old and New ones but I liked what Ive seen, just hoping for a guide to really get into it

You have the opportunity to start with the latest season. The show just got soft rebooted, and currently 4 episodes are out of this new “season 1”. Then if you like it I recommend checking out “Nu-Who” which is the 2005 reboot of the series. Usually fans divide the show into eras of who the main actor is instead of seasons, and I see most people loving David Tennant, Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi, and I would definitely recommend you checking them out.
