* In ''Criminal Minds'' season 8 episode 23, Penelope Garcia, the BAU teams technical analyst, tells the team that she "found something stranger than a time-travelling police box". One episode shows Garcia and Dr. Reid dressed as the Eleventh and Fourth Doctors.

* In an episode of ABC Family's {{wi|The Fosters}}, Callie and Mariana are at a party. At one point, Mariana is talking to a girl in a room that has black light. Graffiti is seen glowing on the wall behind the girls and right between their heads are the words "[[Bad Wolf meme|Bad Wolf]]" printed above a non-detailed drawing of what appears to be the TARDIS. | |||
* In the television cartoon, ''[[My Little Pony|My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic]]'', there is a recurring background earth pony named {{iw|mlp|Dr. Hooves}} (formerly "Time Turner" and "Doctor Whooves") who bears a resemblance to the Tenth Doctor. His cutie mark is an hourglass. In the episode "The Super Speedy Cider Sqeezy 6000", Dr. Hooves can be seen wearing a tie similar to the Tenth Doctor's and operating an elaborate hourglass. Another reference is seen on one of the covers of the official comic, in which Dr. Hooves can be seen wearing the Fourth Doctor's scarf, holding the fob watch, and standing in front of a statue that resembles a Weeping Angel, and a street light that bears a resemblance to the TARDIS. On top of all his official trading card says "Time Turner keeps Ponyville's clocks in sync, sets the hourglass for cider competitions, and takes care of all things timey-wimey." In the season 2 episode, "Sweet and Elite", pony versions of the Third, Fifth, and Eleventh Doctors are seen attending a party with Dr. Hooves. In the episode "One Bad Apple", Dr. Hooves wears a pear costume and a polka-dotted bowtie. It's also worth noting that various forms of the Doctor and possibly the Master have been seen in pony form. In the episode "It's Not Easy Being Breezies", he can be seen walking with [[w:c:mlp:Rose|a pony]] bearing a [[Rose Tyler|rose]] cutie mark while wearing 3D glasses. Dr. Hooves is among several background characters to take centre stage in the series' 100th episode, "Slice of Life", where his scientific background is explored. In "A Royal Problem", he has a bad dream about [[Weeping Angel|a statue]]. Official merchandise of Dr. Hooves such as t-shirts and collectable figures have been licensed by Hasbro. | |||
