Doctor Doctor Review

This was another good episode of Doctor Doctor. In fact, the series has been just as good as the pervious. The show is by no means the best thing I’ve ever seen, but it is definitely a good time killer and it delivers plenty of laughter. This episode brought Penny back to Whyhope. That didn’t take long. Nevertheless, it looks like her new doctor friend will visit and that may throw a curveball into her plans.

Ken is probably the most humorous character in Doctor Doctor. He was great again during this episode. All in all, I enjoyed the episode. It scores a 7.5 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of Doctor Doctor right now.
