Classic Era, 1963-1989
As a rule of thumb, you can typically find Classic Doctor Who online through the Internet Archive.
I posted links to each season in the past, but unfortunately some of them were taken down. As such
from now on I'll just advise you to use DuckDuckGo and not any garbage Chromium-based search engines
to type in something like "Doctor Who season 10 1973 internet archive" to find it yourself.
If that's not your style, all of Classic Doctor Who (except for serials which are partially or totally
lost) is also available on Tubi, with the exception of the very first serial An Unearthly Child,
which you will need to use The Internet Archive's library or otherwise acquire a copy to view.
BritBox also has all of Classic Who, again with the exception of lost episodes and partially recovered
serials, but including An Unearthly Child unlike Tubi.

SIDE NOTE: 1963-1969 LOST MEDIA
Up until the 1970s, the BBC would clear and re-use tapes of their old programs to make way for new ones.
Some of these wiped episodes have not been fully recovered and cannot be viewed today. To read more
about this and find a list of re-construction options for these episodes, click here.

The Wilderness Years, 1989-2004
In 1989, due to internal politics at the BBC, Doctor Who was cancelled (although at the time they
said it was "on hiatus"). The late 1980s had been a fraught and uncertain time for the show, but
fans remained interested in new stories. As a result, some non-TV stories were made. Some of these
are, in my opinion, the very best of Doctor Who, and we couldn't have had New Who without them.
Many fans choose not to engage with these works now as they are, for the most part, no longer
"canonical" to Doctor Who. However, it's good to keep in mind that in the time they were written,
they were the ONLY canon. Many installations in these series come highly recommended and these
series have enduring popularity to this day.
The Virgin New Adventures (1991-1997) were a series of books starring the Seventh Doctor, picking up
where the TV show's story left off. Commonly abbreviated as VNAs or NAs.
The Doctor Who Movie (1996) was a straight to TV film meant to reboot the series for an American
audience. It failed in this regard, but it's good Doctor Who nonetheless.
The Eighth Doctor Adventures (1997-2005) were another series of books, this time starring the Eighth
Doctor, picking up where the movie leaves off. Commonly abbreviated as EDAs.
All three of these are available through The Internet Archive's library. If you have difficulty with
digitally-reformatted books, try your local library system. I don't recommend getting into collecting
physical copies of these books at the moment as they've all been out of print 20-30 years and can be
pretty expensive.
Big Finish Productions gained license rights and started making Doctor Who full cast audio dramas in
1999. Their earliest series to do so is known as the Main Range. Most of the older issues of the Main
Range are available on Spotify, and the Eighth Doctor Main Range is available through the Internet
Archive library. Big Finish has continued making audio dramas for Doctor Who to this day, and I would
highly, HIGHLY recommend the Gallifrey spin-off series, which began in 2004.

New Who, 2005-present
In 2005, Doctor Who was rebooted for TV and the rest is history.
The Internet Archive library has some early seasons of New Who available, just do the same searching
as you would for Classic. Anything a decade or so more recent you'll have to either do some legitimate
piracy for or you'll have to just pay up for a subscription. All series from 2005-2023 are on HBO, but
unfortunately in the USA all series 2024 onwards are only available on Disney+. The new season 1/14/40
is only available for streaming through Disney+ in the US and it's not really all that exciting, so if
you don't already have Disney+ I'd wait to get that free trial after season 41 comes out. They're
getting a bunch of really promising new writers on board so I'm expecting a much better result!
