Over its 60-year-long run, Doctor Who has recycled a few stories, for better or worse, and it is hard to catch these similarities on the first watch.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In the era of infinite content, it is getting difficult to find original stories to tell, so sometimes even the biggest franchises turn to recycling some old plots in a new form, and Doctor Who is no different. This sci-fi drama has been on air for nearly 60 years, and that is a long time for a TV show to successfully compel its viewers to keep tuning in.

10 Worse: "Army of Ghosts" & "The Power of Three" Doctor Who season 2's "Army of Ghosts" is an epic story with a twist that no one expected, but season 7's "The Power of Three" does not have the same awe-inspiring effect. Both stories are about an alien race that slowly and quietly invades the Earth in an effort to eradicate humanity, and both feature a companion's parent used for comedic effect.

8 Worse: "Vincent and the Doctor" & "Listen" These two episodes aren't compared enough, but they are actually rather similar — both feature invisible aliens that the Doctor is fascinated by and explore the concept that not everything in the timeline can be easily rewritten.
