Might be a cliché answer, but I really liked Rose and the Ponds.

Oh, and of course K9. K9 is the best.

Sidenote: Rose and the Ponds might be a pretty decent band name.

The matrixarchive channel on dailymotion used to have a ton of the old episodes, but it looks like the account was taken down. I did find this channel though, which seems to have a bunch of them. At one point I was trying to get through all of them, but "The Web Planet" was so bad I couldn't take it. I never made it through that serial.

If you want to try to watch all of them, you can use this wiki page to make sure you're doing it all in order.

Out of the ones I watched I would definitely recommend "The Unearthly Child," "The Daleks," and maybe "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" just because of their historic value to the show.

I also liked "The Aztecs" and "The Romans," but I really enjoyed "Planet of Giants." Some of the "special effects" (ie. props) in that episode really amazed me for some reason, especially considering it was done in the sixties with no CGI or green screens or anything, and on a really tight budget.

And here is a blog I read through as I finished each episode. Basically some guy decided to watch every old Who episode with his wife and let her review/critique them. It's pretty funny, and I sort of followed along with them as I finished each serial.
