Lower Decks “Fissure Quest” – Review

Doctor Who “Joy to the World” – Review

For some reason, I thought Joel Fry had already been in an episode of Doctor Who. Now I’m right. Directed by Alex Pillai, Pillai is probably best known for that Sabrina everyone was talking about, and I’m not talking about Melissa Joan…
