Simple question and an obvious answer...

By the way, I don't hate Doomsday. As I said, it works as a drama.

Nah it's shite. POTW is better. Not good, but better.  |

Nah it's shite. POTW is better. Not good, but better. The Anne Droid is better is it? The Doctor being a fudd and not doing anything? A type 40 TARDIS being capable of wiping out the Daleks, yet the Time Lords still lost? |

It's more exciting and dramatic, and better directed. Doomsday is flatter than a pancake. Plus Tennant is annoying as f*ck.

I like the idea of a small bunch of people on a space station fighting Daleks more than an explosion-filled full scale battle in Doomsday.

It baffles me as to why Joe Ahearne never directed any Who after Series 1. He's probably the strongest post TruWho director.

Doomsday easily loses. The best bit in the entire 2 parter is the cliffhanger. After that it just gets silly with Daleks vs Cybermen fanwank, and the interminable Rose farewell guff is excruciating.
At the side of that, TPOTW seems only moderately poor.

The Parting of the Ways has some well executed scenes of Daleks killing people, but I don't really like either of them overall. The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang is the only NuWho finale I would unreservedly praise.

Who gave Doomsday its single vote?

Parting of the Ways is objectively superior but I enjoy Doomsday more, minus the theatrics at the end. Granted, a lot of that is probably nostalgia as I watched Doomsday just about everyday when I was a child. All the dialogue and music cues are ingrained into my mind.
