−	*'''29 September 1975''': '''Doctor Who''' make its series debut in Chicago, screening weekdays at 6.30pm. The first serial to air is [[The Mutants]]. Serials continue to air out of order.

−	~~<!-- more research needed*'''12 January 1976''': The last part of [[The Mind of Evil]] is shown. The first 5 minutes of this broadcast still exists as an off-air recording.-->~~
−	*'''7-10 March 1977''': A repeat of [[Terror of the Autons]] is the only story to air in 1977 (as part of '''Festival 77'''). This story was recorded by at least two fans, which were later used by the [[wikipedia:Doctor Who Restoration Team\|Restoration Team]] to recolourise the story.
−
−	*'''11 February 1980''': The [[Tom Baker stories]] make their Chicago debut; the first story is in fact the last, [[The Invasion of Time]]! Episodes air weekdays at 5.30pm. Stories are cycled through twice.
−
−	* '''4 January 1981:''' WTTW begins airing [[Compilation broadcasts\|compilations]] with [[The Sun Makers]]. WTTW creates the compilations by editing together their existing copies. Six-part stories are made into two-part stories.
−	*'''23 August 1981''': Tom Baker's final three seasons begin.
−
−	*'''2 October 1982''': An addition run begins on Saturday mornings to compete with [[WOR]]'s broadcasts, so there are two different cycles of Baker airing at the same time. The run ends '''23 March 1983'''.
−	*'''24 April 1983''': The [[Peter Davison stories]] debut.
−
−	*'''12 June 1983''': A package of just the extant full colour [[Jon Pertwee stories]] commences, including several stories only just recently recovered from [[Canada]]. Lionheart provides the compilation episodes. As stories longer than four parts are split over two weeks, WTTW creates new compilations from Lionheart's, creating breaks in random places. For more details visit [http://chicago.epguides.com/DoctorWho/variations.aspx Chicago Epguides].
−	* '''23 November 1983:''' [[The Five Doctors]] airs, two days before it aired in the UK. Chicago had not yet seen season 20 before the airing.
−
−	*'''24 November 1984''': Season 20 and 21 begin.
−
−	*'''1984-1986''': Repeats of Baker, Pertwee and Davison episodes.
−
−	*'''16 March 1986''': The [[Colin Baker stories]] screen. WTTW removed the scene of Shockeye eating a rat from its broadcasts of [[The Two Doctors]].
−
−	*'''11 May 1986''': The 17 repackaged [[William Hartnell stories]] air.
−
−	*'''19 October 1986''': The first airings of the [[Patrick Troughton stories]] begins with [[The Mind Robber]] because [[The Dominators]] was considered "too confusing."
−
−	*'''8 December 1986''': The the newly acquired [[Jon Pertwee]] package airs nightly, interrupted by pledge breaks. [[The Curse of Peladon]] is aired on WTTW for the first time during this run.
−
−	* '''22 November 1987''': The airing of [[Horror of Fang Rock]] (its '''eighth''' screening) was interrupted by a video pirate dressed as [[wikipedia:Max Headroom pirating incident\|Max Headroom]].
−
−	*'''31 December 1987''': A Dalek Night marathon, with [[Resurrection of the Daleks]], [[Revelation of the Daleks]], and [[Day of the Daleks]].
−
−	*'''12 March 1988''': A Master Marathon, with [[Terror of the Autons]], [[Logopolis]], [[Castrovalva]] and [[The Mark of the Rani]] airing between pledge breaks. Fan clubs man the phones.
−
−	*'''27 November 1988''': A repeat run of Baker, Davison and Colin Baker stories leads into the first airing of [[The Trial of a Time Lord]] followed by the debut of the [[Sylvester McCoy stories]].
−	*'''1988-1991''': More repeats, but Season 20 is dropped after [[Terminus]] in favor of full colour [[Jon Pertwee\|Pertwee]] stories. The first 23 [[Tom Baker stories]] air for their '''tenth''' time.
−	*'''8 November 1990''': The first half of [[The Mind of Evil]] airs unexpectedly. See [[Chicago#~~evil\|The Black and White Conspiracy]] below.~~
−	*'''1 September 1991''': After this night's airing of [[~~The Greatest Show in the Galaxy]] '''Doctor Who''' leaves WTTW for the next five years, ending a continuous run of 12 years.~~
−
−	*'''July 1996''': ~~A series of selected repeats leads into the debut screening of season 26 on '''25 August'''. However, WTTW does not screen [[Battlefield]].~~
−
−	* '''8 September 1996''': [[Survival]] is the final episode of '''Doctor Who''' to air on WTTW.

−	~~'''The Black and White Conspiracy Theory:'''~~
−	<blockquote>There were contemporary rumors that WTTW did not want to air the [[William Hartnell]] and [[Patrick Troughton]] stories because they were in black and white. WTTW <b>did</b> show them ... once. Only two black and white stories were ever shown a second time: ~~[[Terror of the Autons]] and [[The Mind of Evil]].~~
−	~~<br /><br />~~
−	In addition to not repeating Hartnell and Troughton episodes, WTTW also did not repeat the black and white [[Jon Pertwee]] episodes ([[Doctor Who and the Silurians]], [[The Ambassadors of Death]], [[Terror of the Autons]] and [[The Mind of Evil]]) as part of their regular runs.
−	~~<br /><br />~~
−	[[Terror of the Autons]] was shown as part of a pledge-night special on [[Saturday, March 12, 1988\|12 March 1988]]. Ironically, the host jokingly wished that the story could be colorized, forgetting that it had been shown on WTTW in color eleven years earlier.
−	~~<br /><br />~~
−	On '''16 July 1989''', part 1 of [[The Monster of Peladon]] was mistakenly shown. WTTW rectified their mistake by showing the entire story three weeks later. By showing part 1 twice, WTTW had fulfilled its contract to air each story no more than twice. So when it came time to show [[The Monster of Peladon]] again ('''8 November 1990'''), they couldn't. So they needed a suitable replacement: a six-part [[Jon Pertwee]] story. The only episode to fit that bill was [[The Mind of Evil]].</blockquote></div>
