List time!

Since I've wrapped up the re-watch of series 2 and (series 3 is well underway), here is my list in order of favorite episodes:

Series 2
Tooth and Claw
New Earth
The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit
Army of Ghosts/Doomsday
Rise of the Cybermen/The Age of Steel
School Reunion
Fear Her
The Idiot's Lantern
Love and Monsters
The Girl in the Fireplace

Series 2 was much harder to put into any kind of order than series 1 was. It's a tough choice for the #1 spot between Tooth and Claw & New Earth because I like them both very much and am immensely amused by them. In the end I choose Tooth and Claw because it can literally make me laugh for hours.

Now from Rise of the Cyberman/The Age of Steel to Love and Monsters, I like them all generally around the same so it was hard to order them. And just because it's second to the last doesn't mean I like Love and Monsters any less than some of those above it. Even though it's just a clip episode, I find it quite amusing actually. And of course that leaves The Girl in the Fireplace at the bottom and it's probably my least favorite episode of all the NuWho series, I just don't care for it that much.

Have I mentioned I have a bunch of Classic Who (4th & 5th Doctor) on the way from Netflix? I was so pleased they are even available *loves Netflix* :D

Wow, I'd put Fireplace much higher for the theme alone; I like it for more than just that though. :/ It's probably my favorite [original] instrumental piece on the soundtrack. I still don't think I could really order them though.

WOO Classic Who! Still working on William Hartnell; third & last season, but Hartnell was in the first two serials of the next series/season. Working on getting The Dalek's Masterplan, the last Hartnell Dalek serial, and currently only three out of twelve episodes in existence. I'd planned on skipping incomplete serials, but after watching the totally incomplete serial before, The Myth Makers ; The Doctor gave the Greeks the idea for the Trojan Horse lol, which I watched because it was the companion Vicki's last serial, I decided I could let myself watch those I was interested in. Watching reconstructions ain't all that bad, as long as the audio is good; all or most of missing DW serials still exist in audio-form thanks to fan recordings. Anyways, have fun. :)

I rather despise Girl in the Fireplace just because the Doctor is so out of character in that one. He never would have ditched Rose just to save some chick in the 17th century.

Ahem, anyway, I tend to put Fear Her way up on that list, but that's for David Tennant reasons...I think. :) I agree with you on all the other ones. I love the porky-choppy scene so much in Love and Monsters that it's worth the whole episode. :)

I should rank my episodes like you did. It would probably take some serious thought. :) Serious thought that only Doctor Who warrants.
