Seasons 2 and 3 with Tennant as the Doctor have been excellent with only one or two clunkers (yeah, avoid the Dalek 2-parter in Season 3! :/) and some really excellent episodes.
Mmm yeah totally.
If you want some key eps, I'd start with (S2)Tooth & Claw. This is why/when Torchwood starts. The Girl in the Fireplace (S2) is a sad and angsty ep that focuses in on a lonely Doctor. Very good. From S1, the Captain Jack eps start with The Empty Child, through the end of that season. You can see how Jack became immortal (The Parting of Ways, I think) and Christmas Invasion features a new Doctor. Some h/c in that one. Army of Ghosts gives us the new Torchwood.
Some randomly weird episodes... Fear Her (S2), The Lazarus Experiment (S3), and these two eps Human Nature/The Family of Blood (S3) show The Doctor at his darkest.
Utopia (S3) is the return of Jack, which should have coincided with Torchwood's Abaddon (watch this first). Utopia is also the return of an old enemy.
And who is still creeped out by Blink? *shudders*
Also, Capt. John Hart is none other than James Marsters of Buffy fame. Hide yer poodles, ladies! You never know who Jack will kiss next. I'll watch Captain Jack Harness (S1 TW) for a sixth time if i have to. Dammit.
