    Most of the story arcs in Doctor Who, especially in the first series, are self-contained within the series. There's no overarching story where each series advances the meta storyline. If you skip the Ninth Doctor (with whom I was not overly impressed as he reminded me too much of Colin Baker in his portrayal) you'll miss some of the Bad Wolf references but it won't ruin the show.

    Tennant himself takes a few episodes before he really settles into character, but in my opinion it's worth the wait. I'm just sad he left the show as early as he did. He really brought life to the character that I haven't seen matched by any since Tom Baker.
