I know. Hence why he introduced himself as The Doctor.
And since we're on the topic, I REALLY hope The Doctor's real name will be revealed by the end of the series. It's been driving me nuts since I first started watching years ago, the fact that he won't reveal his name (except to River) XD
@EnigmaDrath I am actually going the other way. Whilst we know the Doctor does have a name, answering it is kinda wrong. It's been a running joke since the show started back in 1963.
If you don't understand what "parody" is all about........go to school and get your learn on.......then you can be the great "art critic" you think you already are.....
@Niklarus2010 I actually saw this on TV when I was younger and *KNEW* as a kid they were doing Abbott and Costello. I am lucky enough to have parents who brought me up on real comedy. My brother, the music lover, was with me and he'd taught me about YES.
@ruthampton actually, this is really just an animated version of a skit from SCTV, which originally ended with 'This is for the birds.' 'No. They broke up years ago', which in turn was based of the A&C bit. However A&C did not originate the 'joke', the basic premise predates even them. Theirs is just the most well known version.
I remember seeing this in middle school. I'd never heard of "who's on first" or "The Who" at the time, but I caught on pretty fast. (They actually mentioned "The Who" earlier in the cartoon) Looking back, this gag still doesn't get old!
I actually had a moment like this in 8th grade with my friend. It only lasted for about 10 seconds before I remembered that there was actually a band called "the who", but it was still falking hilarious.
