If you have never heard of the TARDIS and can't tell a Dalek from a Cylon, then you should probably click through all of these timeless Doctor Who creations before you try to sit down and watch one of the most popular sci-fi shows ever. Doctor Who is one of the longest running shows on television, debuting in Britain all the way back in 1963. Doctor Who follows the adventures of an alien in human form who travels through time and fights aliens.
Why a show with a premise as awesome as that never took off in America, I will never know. Still, despite being relegated to the U.K., the show has managed to spread across the Atlantic, albeit in bits and pieces. College Humor created an instruction manual on how to build your own TARDIS and a toy company has built a Dalek that kids can ride in. If you're curious as to what all the British buzz is about, then you definitely need to check out all of these timeless Doctor Who creations.
