I watched Dr Who way before Ponies :3

Got that right.

That is almost sad if you watch MLP and you didn’t know what Doctor Who even was.

raises hand  
I regret nothing.

I actually discovered ponies because I was a Dr Who fan and I heard of Dr Whooves.

I know the Doctor fist, but after MLP I start to see all the first season… now I’m a woovian w

Eh, I got into DW towards the end of Tennant’s run, while I was recovering from my wisdom teeth op. I remember walking in on “Gridlock” and watching the 2009 specials.
 
First stories I ever watched, though. were a triple airing of both parts of “The King’s Demons” with Davison, and “The Idiot’s Lantern” with Tennant. And I watched them in that order. The problem was that I forgot about it until ‘09.
 
All I remember about that night was that my folks were on a trip and spending the night in a hotel, and I was up late watching TV. I don’t even remember which hotel, the number, or even how far back this life-changing night was.

Yup. Pretty much exactly what happened.

It was a combination of that and also hearing about the show in a ton of other places, from friends, TV Tropes, memes, etc. that finally led me to watch “Rose.”
 
It’s now my favorite live-action show of all time.

So true, it got me hooked on the show, I wonder if they will do any more references.

Yep, I did.

no fak you, I discovered Doctor Who because i got netflix  
It’s amazing :D

damn young people (says the 22 year old)

Other way round for me, I watch Doctor Who and found this pony Doctor, went and listened to the first episode of “Doctor Whooves and Assistant” and couldn’t really understand half of it because it was about the first episode of MLP:FIM. So I went to watch that so I could see what was going on and all of a sudden I was a Brony!
 
No regrets :D

I’ll be honest, I like Doctor Who a whole lot LESS thanks to the insipid fangasming that this character has inspired. Sorry, but I am NOT a fan of Doctor Whooves and wish that this abomination had never happened :<

I have watched 3 episodes so far. So little time…

Oppisite, ponies ’cause of the pony Doctor

I was curious about it beforehand, but I think this really was the catalyst

Maybe not discovered, but it’s what got me to finally start watching it.

Heard about it before MLP, but I didn’t start watching it until after I started listening to the doctor whooves and assistant radio plays. No regrets.

I’ve seen it on the TV guide but I thought that was some comedy show about an actual doctor.

*same

As for me, I actually started watching it at about the ame time I started watching FIM, by coincidence.

It’s still cool that you’re able to say you affected Dr. Who in a small way.
