"Trying to watch Doctor Who in the U.S. was a Herculean task for decades. From reruns on PBS to catching up on BBC America to the three different streaming homes for the archive, things just aren't simple. But in 2023, it seemed like those days were finally behind us as the BBC formed a partnership with Disney to not only stream new episodes for American viewers, but make them available at the very same time they aired on British TV."
"The War Between the Land and the Sea is a five-part miniseries following UNIT, the terrestrial military organization that deals with alien threats, as they cope with the emergence of the Sea Devils, now known as Homo Aqua. The Homo Aqua have seen the way we've been treating the world and threaten to start a global war. The series was announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 and is often compared to the previous Doctor Who spinoff, Torchwood."
Watching Doctor Who in the U.S. was historically complicated, with reruns on PBS, BBC America airings, and multiple streaming homes for the archive. In 2023, BBC and Disney formed a partnership to stream new episodes simultaneously with U.K. broadcasts. That partnership ended three years later, leaving The War Between the Land and the Sea without a confirmed U.S. release despite already airing in the U.K. The War Between the Land and the Sea is a five-part UNIT miniseries about the Sea Devils, now Homo Aqua, who threaten global war. The series was announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2024 and stars Russell Tovey, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jemma Redgrave, Alexander Devrient, Ruth Madeley, Colin McFarlane, and Ann Akinjirin. The miniseries has no plans for a second season.
