Doctor Whooves and Assistant is a YouTube series of audio dramas based on the adventures of Doctor Whooves and his "assistant", Ditzy Doo, also known as Derpy.
The first three episodes form the A Bit Unexpected story arc. In it, the Doctor crashes the TARDIS on Equestria and befriends Ditzy, whom he quickly calls Derpy. The Doctor and his newly christened assistant then investigate the reappearance of Nightmare Moon. Afterwards, the Doctor and Derpy begin going on adventures with one another.
Episodes Four and Six are based on Winter Wrap Up and Over a Barrel! respectively. Episodes Five and Eight both involve time travel and are not based on specific episodes of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Episode Seven is a crossover with Episode Five of Doctor Whooves Adventures by Squeak Anon.
YouTube channel ocarinaplaya released animations of the A Bit Unexpected story arc in 2012. The story arc has also been remade as a single episode in February 7, 2013.
In addition to eight episodes, six Q&A's, a Christmas special, an April Fool's special, and three shorts have also been released. All are uploaded on PierceSmoulder's channel.
Episode Eight introduced Tick Tock, a new assistant for the Doctor. In Part Two, JestreDeRama replaced KeikoandGilly as the Doctor.
The show was undertaken by production studio Greyhound Films[1] in 2020 and is currently produced by Max Perryman, S.A.F.I. Animoid, and Mikhayla Messer, directed by JestreDeRama and JitterbugJive.
