About
On August 26th, 1989, a group of "renegade" Doctor Who fans belonging to a local college-based club formed a private, non-profit organization. Adding a mix of other science fiction programs and comedy programs helped ensure variety at meetings. After the end of the classic Who series in 1989, MTL members kept the club alive with regular events (picnic, Ren Faire, etc), fanzines, a fan video production, a Monty Python night, two murder mysteries, local vendor tours, active convention support and local community events, such as public TV pledge drives. Eventually, Doctor Who made its way back in the form of audio productions (Big Finish), the 1996 American-produced TV movie and the new series launched in 2005. [1]
The Milwaukee Time Lords is a science fiction fan club with its original foundation being the British TV series Doctor Who. We are also fans of other sci-fi TV, including Star Trek, The X-Files, Babylon 5, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Xena, Farscape, Blake's 7, The Avengers, Sarah Jane Adventures, Battlestar Galactica, Torchwood, etc. Science fiction films and Japanese Animation are also popular with many members along with obscure works such as Tripods. We also enjoy British comedies such as Red Dwarf, Monty Python, Blackadder, Fawlty Towers and Absolutely Fabulous. [2]
