Disney ‘Doctor Who:’ David Tennant Tenth Dr Episodes Airing on XD Channel After Phineas & Ferb Series Finale

Doctor Who has made his way to Disney. The Disney XD channel is now airing episodes of the hit BBC series, starring the Tenth Dr, David Tennant. However, it is not all good news. Phineas and Ferb has aired its last all new episode.

Doctor Who is now on Disney XD. Recently, BBC Worldwide North America executive vice-president of sales and co-productions in TV, spoke about the move in a press statement (via Variety):

“Disney XD is recognized for its family-friendly programming, making the channel a great partner to introduce the David Tennant seasons of ‘Doctor Who’ to a new generation of viewers.”

Sadly, where Disney XD is getting the good Doctor, they are losing the boys of summer. The hit series, Phineas and Ferb, aired its series finale this past Friday.

Phineas and Ferb co-creators Dan Povenmire recently spoke to The Huffington Post about the end of the show:

"Look, without naming any names here, we all know that there have been TV shows that overstayed their welcomes, who did themselves a real disservice by hanging in there a season or three too long. And we just didn't want that to be the case with Phineas and Ferb. We didn't want our show to be one of those that wore out its welcome. We really wanted to go out strong. Shut down production while people were still fond of the show and its characters."
