On the anniversary of Doctor Who's 'The End of the World' and in this—the year of Madame Web—we dare to say: Britney songs should soundtrack more action scenes.

Nineteen years ago today, alien denizens of the universe gathered in the Doctor Who revival’s sophomore episode, “The End of the World,” to bid farewell to the planet Earth by mourning her with song: the traditional ballad “Toxic” by Britney Spears, played on vinyl. It took nearly two decades, but finally someone else saw the vision the show had laid out. The use of “Toxic” in “The End of the World” is perhaps the purest distillation of Russell T.

Silly-yet-serious, camp and compelling: in just under a minute and in one licensed song usage, Doctor Who made it very clear what kind of show it wanted to be, as it prepared to shoot itself into the pop culture stratosphere all over again. Nineteen years on we trade one Cassandra for another—a Cassie, this time—in the similarly camp, perhaps not quite so successful Madame Web. The good madame’s usage of “Toxic” itself has parallels to Doctor Who’s, but with one fascinating difference.
