it struck me today that a massive part of what makes the Doctor the hero and not the villain of the show is that he actually is not a good guy. he's not good. he's terrible, and he could be really bad for the universe, but the thing that makes him the hero is that he knows what he is really like sometimes and he is actively trying to do the right thing at every opportunity and be better, so in this essay I will-

No but can you imagine being a Doctor Who fan in the 60's and watching that first regeneration with no knowledge of NuWho or all the other doctors.
You watch this eccentric yet well-mannered old man transform into another, and you're not quite sure what that means yet. But surely, he's just replacing the lead and besides that not a whole lot is going to change, right?
SIKE you have now been introduced to
Who after regenerating, goes non-verbal for a while and only replies with toots of his recorder/flute, which he's suddenly really interested in.
He also never explains his thoughts, silently wanders off, gets fixated on doing tongue twisters right after finding some daleks, becomes obsessed with hats and in episode 2, threatens someone with a gun while in drag and robs the duke's arsonal after a nap.
It's the funniest most Intense vibe shift I've ever seen, but clearly people loved it with how the show's still going strong to this day 😭😭😭
