Probably best to categorise into the good/of import, the bad, and the so bad they're funny.

Good/important
An Unearthly Child - you need to at least see the first episode.
Power of the Daleks- is supposed to be good, though I haven't seen this one.......
the Spearhead from Space - very good, although a bit '70s tacky......
Frontier In Space, and
Planet of the Daleks go together cuz they've got a direct link, and are good, but see previous comment about '70s tacky....
Ark In Space, Revenge of the Cybermen, the Sontaran Experiment and Genesis of the Daleks are a mini-arc and should be watched in roughly that order (can't remember it exactly)
the Robots of Death,
City of Death
Logopolis/Castrovalva
The Curse of Fenric.
These are all the ones I can think of at the moment.

Funny/bad
The Horns of Nimon
The Invasion of Time
Dimensions in Time
Inside the Spaceship

on NO account get "the Daleks", and if you do, do NOT attempt to watch it at one sitting. It will bore you comatose.
