10 Times Doctor Who Appeared In Other TV Shows

10. South Park

South Park has poked fun at just about everything under the sun across its decades-long run, so it's no surprise that Doctor Who was once caught in its crosshairs.

In the Season 15 episode Funnybot, the Germans respond to being voted "Least Funny People In The World" by creating the titular machine, which starts off by telling a few decent jokes, before eventually deciding to destroy the world so it can become the ultimate comedian.

As any Doctor Who fan watching this episode probably noticed, the Funnybot is a clear riff on the Whoniverse's most iconic foes, the Daleks. If its overall size and shape didn't give the game away, then its Dalek-esque voice and frickin' plunger arm certainly did! Oh, and then there's a moment where it screams "EXTERMINATE", just to hammer home the parody a little bit further.

Daleks telling jokes... now there's an idea Doctor Who should steal.
