The Peter Davison series began in the fall of 1984, but The Five Doctors did not air with Season 20. Colin Baker's stories began in 1987 and Sylvester McCoy's season 24 started in January 1989. TVOntario's broadcasts ended in September 1989 with the repeat airing of Dragonfire. The decision to drop Doctor Who was likely due to Ontario viewers choosing to watch the series via Public Broadcasting Service affiliates in the United States that had been offered in Canada via cable television since the late 1970s. In addition, the national network YTV had also begun airing original versions of the episodes.
