Reviews:
Rick reviewed the latest episode of 'Starfleet Academy' as it reached very hard, tried hard & couldn't really properly achieve its aims. He rated it as 'the actors acted their hearts out', but they 'lacked time & bit off more than they could chew'. Lisa followed - and has been enjoying the show. She enjoyed the episode & thinks the show is interesting.

and Rick also reviewed the bloopers and out-takes from 'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' as seen on YouTube & that it's obvious the cast is having fun with the show.
