There are many reasons to give thanks this week, from friends to family, from turkey to parades, from football to an alien from the planet Gallifrey who traverses space and time in order to prevent evil forces from preying on innocent humans using little more than their wit and a sonic screwdriver.

That’s right, Wednesday, Nov 23 is officially Doctor Who Day and free streaming service Pluto TV is celebrating the occasion with a non-stop “Doctor Who” marathon on the Doctor Who Classic channel.

The original incarnation of the series premiered on the BBC on this day in 1963 and now, 39 seasons and 13 doctors later, the show is still going strong. All day Pluto TV is taking viewers on some of the Doctor’s epic adventures to save the universe, with non-stop “Doctor Who” episodes, starting from the very beginning with “An Unearthly Child” and continuing chronologically with select episodes, including “The Daleks,” “The Edge of Destruction,” “The Dalek Invasion of Earth,” “The Romans,” “The Chase,” “The Time Meddler,” “The War Machine,” “Power of the Dalek,” “Tomb of the Cybermen,” and more.

Pluto’s Doctor Who Classic channel airs episodes from the original series’ which aired from 1963 to 1989. After a TV movie in 1996, the show was rebooted in 2005 with the Ninth Doctor and was grown in popularity around the world refer since. Ncuti Gatwa will premiere as the Fifteenth Doctor, and the first Black actor to play the role, in 2023.

In addition to the Doctor Who celebration, Pluto will also be bringing back its annual “Mystery Science Theater 3000” Turkey Day Marathon. Join hosts Felicia Day and Rebecca Hanson starting at 7 a.m. ET on Thursday, Nov. 24 on the MST3K channel. The marathon will feature an extended lineup of 10 feature-length episodes and one short film, including two feature-length episodes and a short from the show’s current Season 13.

This holiday week is an especially good time to be thankful for Pluto, but especially if you love time-traveling aliens and wise-cracking robots!

Pluto TV

Pluto TV is a free streaming service backed by Paramount that offers a traditional cable-like channel surfing experience. The service offers hundreds of free round-the-clock channels, including classics like “Star Trek,” “The Twilight Zone,” and “The Price is Right.”

…

Rather than attempting to carry expensive local broadcast affiliates or high-profile live sports leagues, the lineup leans heavily into curated thematic programming. You will find dedicated channels cycling non-stop episodes of many classic TV shows, alongside niche feeds for anime, true crime, classic sitcoms, and live headline news loops from outlets like CBS News. Alongside the live grid, there is also a hefty on-demand vault filled with older Hollywood catalog films, cult classics, and complete archived series.

Because Pluto TV mirrors linear broadcast television, you cannot pause or fast-forward through commercial breaks, nor is there a cloud DVR feature to record airings for later viewing. That said, it’s a great alternative for those looking for a wide range of channels without subscription fees.
