"AMC+ recently announced that the 2005-2022 run of Doctor Who will be available on the streamer starting on June 11. This is huge, as those 176 episodes were completely unavailable on streaming services after they were removed from HBO Max, and it didn't seem like that would change any time soon."
"The BBC made a deal to co-produce Doctor Who with Disney, and while that meant fans around the world could catch new episodes on Disney+, three years later, the fate of the entire franchise is now hovering in limbo. What's more, the previous 13 seasons of Doctor Who dating back to the 2005 reboot were unceremoniously removed from HBO Max last July."
"To view the three different eras of Doctor Who, you'll need three different apps. "Classic Who," the pre-2005 era of the series, is streaming for free on Tubi, though many episodes are famously missing, thanks to the BBC's shoddy archiving practices. The 2005-2022 era, often called "Nu Who," will soon be available on AMC+. The 2023-present era is new enough that it doesn't really have a name, but it's streaming on Disney+."
"The 2005-2022 era of Doctor Who introduced Jodie Whitaker as the first female actor to take on the role of the Doctor."
