Well I don't deny that he's not the first in the franchise, or in terms of in-universe continuity (although, thanks to the Timeless Child, even Hartnell isn't truly the first incarnation of the Doctor in terms of in-universe continuity, he's just the oldest incarnation the Doctor can remember [and for NuWho-only watchers, Hartnell isn't even who we associate with that incarnation, since he's played by David Bradley in NuWho]). My point was simply that for NuWho watchers, Eccleston is the first Doctor we are exposed to within the context of NuWho. The classic Doctors are just distant backstory to us, no different than the War Doctor or the Fugitive Doctor.

Im not denying that Eccelston is the first doctor to you. Thats never been the issue. The issue is that in the end, hes still not the first doctor of the series, regardless if hes your first doctor The problem was who was your first doctor And not all NuWho watchers feel the same Technically, Im a NuWho watcher, as well

No, because Classic Doctor Who is segmented into seasons and has a different format.
Something like Trial of a Time Lord doesn't really compare in format to Flux but both were an overarching plot.

The season/series thing is kind of weird. Classic Doctor Who is divided into seasons, it starts with Season 1 and ends with Season 26. The Doctor Who revival is divided into series, and starts with Series 1 and is currently up to Series 13. I guess BBC just felt that the season/series thing was the best way to distinguish between the two.

In the end, its different word used to describe the same thing Both are technically a new season
