As a cultural phenomenon for half a century, '''''Doctor Who''''' and its spin-offs have been both the target of '''parodies''', as well as the frame of reference for satire of other subjects which spoofed ''Doctor Who'' as their framing device, but had a different aim. Although some of these parodies were licensed by the relevant copyright-holders (and are consequently awarded coverage on this Wiki as [[Tardis:Valid sources|invalid sources]]), many were not, as satire and parody are among the common exceptions to copyright law. | As a cultural phenomenon for half a century, '''''Doctor Who''''' and its spin-offs have been both the target of '''parodies''', as well as the frame of reference for satire of other subjects which spoofed ''Doctor Who'' as their framing device, but had a different aim.
