Ever since its revival in 2005, the new "Doctor Who" series has become one of the best sci-fi shows on TV under the stewardship of Russell T. Davies and current showrunner, Steven Moffat. The series launched with Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor, before giving way to David Tennant and Matt Smith in the title role.
