Peter Davison was always my Doctor and will always be in my eyes the best 80's Doctor; but I love Colin and his Doctor as well. He's genuinely a nice person-- a bit intimidating at first for a shy girl, but he is very nice overall and he loved being the Doctor. It's a shame how Colin was treated just because of poor writing.It was a interesting way to tackle the role of the 6th Doctor--the Doctor is in fact an alien and I think Colin portrayed the alien quantities perfectly.

...Colin Baker is one of if not the best Dr....he was the perfect Dr after Davison and Tom Baker...his snark is fine....the writing was very up and down...some of the best stories of the entire Dr Who genre were written during this time, Vengeance on Varos, Mindwarp, Revelation of the Daleks, he was followed by the worst Dr and the worst writing....

I think Colin Baker's Doctor is much better than Peter Davison. He really brought another dimension to Doctor Who. I don't even think the writing was all that terrible. But, I'm used to the crap on American TV.

@ianhalen1000 He also said that he hated the show because he saw Star Wars and the production values were much better. Which is ridiculously shallow.

It was personal dislike. From what I gather, Michael Grade, the cunt that initially cancelled the show back in 1985, was at the time dating Baker's ex-wife Liza Goddard. That, and the fact he thought Baker's performance was and I quote: " utterly unlikeable, absolutely god-awful in fact".
Seriously, what sanctimonious, cowardly biatch.

Ha!! go Colin GO!!
Such a great Doctor. Shame he went the way he did. He could have potentially been one of the greatest Doctors ever. It's great to know he does various conventions and keeps up to date with modern Doctor Who. He also does great Doctor Who audio dramas. Definitely the best in that area.

I just find it amazing that an actor could get sacked because of poor writing.
