What is the best third season for a doctor?

Since someone started a topic for a second season I was wondering what yall thought of third seasons.

  • Season 3 (Hartnell)
  • Season 6 (Troughton)
  • Season 9 (Pertwee)
  • Season 14 (Baker)
  • Season 21 (Davison
  • Season 26 (McCoy)
  • Series 4 (Tennant)
  • Series 7 (Smith)
  • Series 10 (Capaldi)
  • Series 13 : Flux (Whittaker)

It’s a toss up between Series 4 and Season 26. Though I like Season 26 better, so it wins.

Horrible, pains me to say it, but so it be. From the ones I’ve seen I have to say the Tenth Doctor season is the best…

Season 6 is great and when its good, its REALLY good. Series 10 is my favorite of the revived Show, Series 13 is great. And I do really like Season 14 for the most Part. But I am going to go with Season 26, all Stories are great and the Stuff they do with Ace as a Character is just great Material.

Season 6 could’ve been incredible if space pirates just didnt exist.Like only story in that season i dont enjoy,and krotons are kind of mid.Season 5 has : tomb,enemy of the world,web of fear,abominable snowmen and fury of the deep which i all love.

My trouble with polls like this is that I usually don’t remember offhand what season stories are in, and don’t feel like looking things up…

Very close decision between seasons 14 and 26 for me

Same here, but since I’m a little mixed in opinions on Ghost Light I gave it to 14.

Series 4 is fine, but I don’t get why it’s so highly and near universally praised as one of the best ever.

I mean, I am fine with it “existing”, considering what mess of a story it supposedly replaced, now if we got that Story instead, I think we would be far worse off. I do really like Season 5, even if I think the Highs of 6 are much bigger than most of 5 (minus Fury, fury is one of the best 60s serial and I won’t hear otherwise!!)

What fantasy element? The closest there is is the Arthurian legend stuff in Battlefield, but that was explained as just people from a different dimension.
