Netflix had some of the original series available for awhile, but I think most of it was post-Tom Baker era. I was able to locate some of the earlier stuff in the dark corners of the internet but even that is a bit iffy. For the record, Jon Pertwee was the greatest doctor ever, as if that was in question.
Also, I lost my copy of Shada (un-released Tom baker? Yes Please!) so I'm jealous...

Blasphemy, Tom Baker or bust. Yeah, Netflix and amazon prime I think have the same ones listed. They are VERY sparse. I was having hard time finding ones for legit sale when I was looking.
Netflix has an entry titled "Classic Doctor Who" with a bunch of episodes from 18 seasons.
Looks like they have one storyline from each season 1-18 consisting of 4-6 episodes. So it's far from complete but nice for guys like me who haven't seen much at all.
I have received packages! Layla is alert (for the puppy jerky I have sitting beside me).
Sorry to go out of order but she says to open this one first.
Hellboy! My husband claimed this one. The note read: Gift #2 of 4 One of Santa's most favorite things and an annual Secret Santa tradition. Best wishes, G&T Secret Santa.
Next up, Lego! Note read: Gift #1 of 4 A holiday classic. The best toy for all ages. Best wishes, G&T Secret Santa
And next, Jaipur. The note read: Gift #3 of 4 A wonderful game for two. Play nice now! Best wishes, G&T Secret Santa
My husband and I like to go to breweries and sit around. This will be nice for that.
Man, Layla looks grumpy. I told her to look nicer or no treats and got this face
Last but not least Love Letter. The note read: Gift #4 of 4 Another great game for two, or more! Silly, quick, light, fun. Best wishes, G&T Secret Santa
Also good for my drinking kit
Whole lot
Layla asking for her jerky as compensation for sitting still.
Thank you Santa! Lots of fun stuff! I have your real name, but I'm not sure of your forum name. Spill it or I'll have to send Layla out to investigate and she'll take all your food for payment.

I got a message from Proxy saying 2 parcels are on their way! Wahoo! Santa apologised for being late, but I still count 12 days till christmas, so I'm not complaining.
I am, however, complaining about Amazon. I ordered my santee's present on December 5, estimated delivery date was yesterday, but it's still 'preparing for shipment'.

Yes, Tom Bakers scarf is definitely number one. I actually have one that my wife got me (go go Thinkgeek!) and my son has one that his grandmother knitted him (thats nearly as long as the real thing!), so I understand the Baker-lovers.

Hmm, someone was asking about 2 player games in the board game thread a few days ago, and Jaipur came up as well as Love Letter iirc. I wonder if that was your Santa doing research?
Okay, so I figured out that image is clearly a QR code, because of the three squares in the corners. Problem is, aside from manually punching in a bunch of excel squares, not quite sure how to decode it. Also I have to grade like a zillion papers tonight and have no time! If anyone knows an easy way to do it, let me know, otherwise I'll go grab some graph paper/excel sheets and go to town tomorrow.
Oh man, just got back from a work trip and the wife told me we got a package.
I assemble a crack team of box openers!
Indy (cream color bunny), Elsa (darker brown bunny), and Mr. Alan (Guinea Pig) gooooo!
Indy is all over it!
A gift for the child! Elsa continues to investigate in the background.
Elsa and Indy team up to open the coffee cup!
Indy has already made himself a temporary home.
I don't actually think that box contains anything for me! The wife has already made off with the mug and kiddo has snatched the pony.
Success! Thanks so much @anoffday it was awesome opening that! Also Broken Age was great!

I imagine making that comma separated and then using conditional formatting would make things a bit easier, but when someone did something like this last year (or was it the year before?) I printed it out and used a sharpie... LOL

@SniperGuy if you copy/paste it into the thread I bet I can script something up to extract it into an image.

Earlier this week I arrived home from the PlayStation Experience in Vegas to a number of packages. Let's see what's inside shall we.
Unfortunately no pet pics, my ex/roommate went out of town on a business trip lasting most the month of December and took our cats, leaving me home alone with nothing to tolerate me while I shower my affection onto it. So unnamed wolf pup plush will stand in for real animals.
What was in those envelopes? A note! Along with some miracle fruit tabs, I've always wanted to try these. I'm going to have to pull them out at a party and mess with everyone's minds. Also a copy of an RPG series that I've been playing since the GBA. I played the first and second, but never got around to picking up the third. Thanks a bunch, now I get to see how the story ends... maybe.
Holy crap an EcoSphere, these aren't cheap! Awesome, I've always wanted one of these for a little bit of natural decoration, and something interesting to look at.
Not a great picture, but I kept it because you can see the little shrimp in there better than the next photo. Everything inside that completely sealed glass globe is perfectly structured to support a closed ecosystem that will last for years without any outside influence.
Note: Look at the full sized image to get a better view of the shrimpies towards the bottom of the picture.
A slightly better-ish shot.
Here is unnamed wolf pup protecting the EchoSphere from the big blue whale Laboon in its new home on my headboard.
Thank you Santa @msmya! You gave me a little bit of everything, great range and choices!
I think my Santee fell off the face of the Earth. Hasn't posted in a month and my gift was delivered on Wednesday. To an apartment with no signature required.
My gift is keeping a hobo warm in a burn barrel, I know it.

@SniperGuy if you copy/paste it into the thread I bet I can script something up to extract it into an image.
Oh, also, If you have excel you can do it yourself. You don't even need scripting
open in notepad.
Replace "0" with "0,"
Replace "1" with "1,"
save or rename it as a .csv file.
Open in excel, each nubmer should now be in its own cell.
Make the cells squares.
Highlight them all, and use conditional formatting to make the cells & text black or white depending on the value.
Profit.

I'll check but I've had a tracking # for most of this week. Hmmm. I could just go through last year's thread and see who gave the Hellboy book since it was their traditional gift.

You are awesome. Knew there was a way to do this, just couldn't figure out what way to do it. Resized each cell to fit to the data and it came out a fairly close square that my phone could pick up on.
Also I am totally stealing this and using it in class next week. Two gifts, a gift and a lesson plan! (I'm a middle school computer teacher now. It is awesome. And terrible. At the same time.) It worked! It's also a UPS TRACKING NUMBER! So in addition to all those amazing steam games, there's a box on the way! Should arrive Monday. Puzzles! Yay!
Also I finally got approval to hook a raspberry pi to my network and start doing awesome stuff. Woo! Good day. Now back to grading papers!
This isn't an official gift get, hence the awesomely homemade announcement picture.
@Kendrik PM'd me a code for a Kindle version of John Scalzi's Old Man's War because, quote: "I'm not your santa, but no e-reader is complete without a copy of Old Man's War."

I'm so disappointed and angry at Best Buy for messing up @DyasAlure gift! I'm hopeful we can get this straightened out. Regardless of the fact that he has been able to work around the software, it's the principle at this point!
Thanks @Arikado ! Will look forward to getting stuck into it. Its weird, never really though of myself as a super lurker before, but its true, can go weeks without posting if nothing grabs my attention, didnt really think how that could cause issues for the Santa. Good job all the same!
@Prime Oh, it revealed my account name, haha. Oh well, glad you like it. That's not all of it though.
EDIT: It's ironic considering how little I post nowadays. Takes one to know one I guess, hah.
Yeah steam name just happened to match Forum name :P I'm very easy to please if it helps lessen your worries
Been watching the tracking info on my santes gift, its actually exciting watching it move from place to place, while at the same time....come on get there already!
Opened up my front door today to find a gift from santa!
After I tore off the wrapping
Edit: And all caught up on the days!
It was way easier once I realized that the inside of the flaps had little instructions. The little turrets are super cool, one can even fire.
The label had a name so I might have done some reverse stalking, hopefully I got it correct, thanks @deveric!
I just wanted to let my Santa know my gifts arrived today. I'll try to post pictures tonight (my grandfather just passed, so got some family have to do).
Guys, I'm in my new apartment! Like, moved in! No internet yet, so I'm glad LTE coverage is good here so I can use my phone as a hotspot.
Quick blurry picture:
I don't have any furniture yet, but I made certain to have at least one strand of Christmas lights.
Hahaha, that reminds me of when I moved cities, and the first week or so I had a TV and computer but no desk, chair, couch, or anything. I'd eat on the floor in front of my keyboard, also on the floor, watching the TV which was, you guessed it, on the floor.
