Eccleston had the haunted, and is the only Doctor Who of that sort. (Which makes sense, given what he'd been through in the books before the series started.) That makes him a big favourite of mine.
Tennet's doctor, I also like a lot. I agree that the writing in some of the episodes was not what it had been in Series 27, but I just look at it this way; in Series 27, you had, what, 15 years of script ideas bouncing around in peoples' heads? And you could pick from the best of those? You're going to do really well. And they did!
I still like Series 28 a lot, tho', even with "The Impossible Planet," which I thought was just an awful mess. It had the standout episode "Girl in the Fireplace" - that's the one that made me post about how you're going to love 18th Century France - the whole Republic of Britain series, and the last few episodes running up to the series closer. So nice.
