* In {{wi|House of Anubis}} (which featured [[Mina Anwar]], [[Paul Antony-Barber]] and [[Rodger Barclay]]), the character {{iw|houseofanubis|Alfie Lewis}} had a 12" remote control Dalek and 2 12" figures in his bedroom; one was of a new series Cyberman and the other was of [[Dalek Sec]] as a [[Human-Dalek]] after he had merged with [[Diagoras]]. | * In {{wi|House of Anubis}} (which featured [[Mina Anwar]], [[Paul Antony-Barber]] and [[Rodger Barclay]]), the character {{iw|houseofanubis|Alfie Lewis}} had a 12" remote control Dalek and 2 12" figures in his bedroom; one was of a new series Cyberman and the other was of [[Dalek Sec]] as a [[Human-Dalek]] after he had merged with [[Diagoras]]. | ||
* The {{wi|iCarly}} episode ''{{iw|icarly|iPear Store}}'' introduces the character {{iw|icarly|Trey}} as a romantic interest for {{iw|icarly|Carly|the titular character}}, and then has the two go into a brief rendition of the "{{w|Who's on First?}}" sketch after Trey reveals that he's going to watch a ''Doctor Who'' marathon on television. | * The {{wi|iCarly}} episode ''{{iw|icarly|iPear Store}}'' introduces the character {{iw|icarly|Trey}} as a romantic interest for {{iw|icarly|Carly|the titular character}}, and then has the two go into a brief rendition of the "{{w|Who's on First?}}" sketch after Trey reveals that he's going to watch a ''Doctor Who'' marathon on television. | ||
* Marvel's {{wi|Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.}} has made a number of references to ''Doctor Who.'' In the episode ''The Hub'', a model TARDIS can be seen on top of a desk. In ''The Only Light in the Darkness'', when the agents are asked the first thing they would like to see if stranded on an island, Jemma Simmons responds "the TARDIS." In other episodes, a holographic Dalek head can be seen on the Holo-table, and an image of a Dalek is displayed on Leo Fitz's monitor. In the season 5 episode 'Together or Not at All', Jemma Simmons says 'Allons-y' (The [[Tenth Doctor]]'s catchphrase) in response to Leo Fitz saying 'Once more unto the breach' (William Shakespeare originally said this, but it is also something the Tenth Doctor says in ''[[The Shakespeare Code (TV story)|The Shakespeare Code]]''). | |||
* In one episode of ''Orphan Black'', a picture of the TARDIS is seen in the background. | * In one episode of ''Orphan Black'', a picture of the TARDIS is seen in the background. | ||
* In ''{{iw|youngjustice|Insecurity}}'', a March 2012 episode of ''{{iw|youngjustice|Young Justice}}'', a [[police box]], clearly looking like [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], is seen as one of the ends of a {{iw|youngjustice|Zeta-Beam}} conduit. A character enters the box and teleports to {{iw|youngjustice|the Cave}}, the main setting for the heroes of the series. The design of the police box is comparatively detailed. It looks like the TARDIS as seen in ''[[The War Machines (TV story)|The War Machines]]'', because it bears an "out of order" sign. It's unclear how [[Warner Bros.]] would have been able to use the police box design legally. The appearance was not clearly parodic nor was it even historically accurate. The scene was set in America and the DC universe had never previously established the existence of British police boxes in the United States. | * In ''{{iw|youngjustice|Insecurity}}'', a March 2012 episode of ''{{iw|youngjustice|Young Justice}}'', a [[police box]], clearly looking like [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], is seen as one of the ends of a {{iw|youngjustice|Zeta-Beam}} conduit.
