Doctor Who premiered in November of 1963. Through many incarnations it has lasted through the decades, but in 1989 is was canceled. A TV movie tried to bring it back with a focus on an American audience in 1996, but alas that was not enough. It wasn't until

Doctor Who season 5 had a lot riding on it with a whirlwind of uncertainties, similar to how the Doctor Who landscape is now between S10 and S11. It was the beginning of a new regeneration for the Doctor, by a young actor that barely anyone knew, and coming off
