* In one episode of ''The Sarah Silverman Program'', one character (Brian Spukowski, played by Brian Posehn) buys a DVD boxset of a science-fiction show called ''Dr. Lazer Rage''. He later feels regret at buying the expensive boxset. [[Ninth Doctor]] actor [[Christopher Eccleston]] makes a cameo as "Dr. Lazer Rage" coming to life on the cover of the box. In the same episode, one character calls another from a blue telephone box. Interestingly, this is the only example of Eccleston participating in a guest appearance that directly references and parodies his involvement in ''Doctor Who''.
