Doctor Doctor Review

As always, Doctor Doctor was a little silly and lighthearted. In the end there, it got pretty emotional. It seems that Hugh’s decision to become Jim’s donor could put their past troubles behind them. It also seems like Penny is trying her best to smooth things over with Hugh. So far, he hasn’t taken the bait. Ajax hasn’t been able to solve his troubles with Hayley either.

There are only two episodes left this season. Something big is bound to happen pretty soon. This episode was good. It scores a 7.5 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of Doctor Doctor right now!
