There’s a lot to unpack, so stay tuned and enjoy the episode!

Why Doctor Who Lives Forever

Doctor Who has been around for so long that it has cemented itself into pop culture. But for Whovians (fans), it is more than just a pop culture icon. On March 26, 2005, the show first aired on a low budget, made evident by its initial production quality. While people are often put off by how cheap it used to look, it did not stop others from seeing the potential of a great story. Funny enough, as popular as it is, people who are not fans of the show often have no clue why it’s appealing to others. While it did have a simple premise, it took a life of its own as a great story that would last many lifetimes with the right people.
