* ''Community'' would later make frequent references to the fictional TV show ''{{iw|community-sitcom|Inspector Space Time}}'', an obvious parody of ''Doctor Who''. A British programme, ''Inspector Space Time'' is said to be the oldest sci-fi show on television, dating from 1962, centring around "The Inspector" and his companion, who travel through Time and Space in a telephone booth. The main recurring villains are mechanical Dalek-like creatures named Blorgons, and a brief glimpse of the opening credit sequence is strikingly similar to the ''Doctor Who'' credits from the Ninth/Tenth Doctor. In an episode of season four, Abed wears a TARDIS shirt, indicating that he was also a fan of the real ''Who''. | * ''Community'' would later make frequent references to the fictional TV show ''{{iw|community-sitcom|Inspector Space Time}}'', an obvious parody of ''Doctor Who''.
