Top 20 Modern Era Doctor Who Monsters Revealed

If there's something Doctor Who is renowned for, aside from its time-travel adventures, sonic screwdrivers, and the Doctor's regenerations, it's the vast array of memorable monsters that populate its universe. As we welcome a new season of Doctor Who, it's the perfect time to revisit the Doctor's rogues gallery and spotlight the most formidable creatures our beloved Time Lord has encountered.

Before diving in, a few clarifications: We've excluded villains that don't fit the traditional "monster" category, so iconic foes like the Master won't appear on this list.
