The Federation strikes again in yet another video knocked out over a weekend that attempts to poke fun at "Doctor Who" and "Blake's 7". Like most of their projects, they just don't know when to stop, beating a joke to death, then repeating said joke several times. It's not without its moments but anyone that isn't intimately familiar with the series or especially their fandoms are going to be completely out of luck. The Federation really can't be blamed for not being at the top of the comedy / satire game. It's not like they do it for a living. Series like "Saturday Night Live" that actually try this sort of thing on a weekly basis suffer from the same problem - the jokes run on way too long and the writers assume you're already in on the joke. The production values are on a par with a Todd Sheets movie, which is to say that there aren't any. The whole production looks like it was made up with the camera rolling which gives it this sort of train wreck fascination: you just can't turn away no matter how hard you try.

The comedy genre refers to a category of entertainment that aims to amuse and entertain audiences by using humor, wit, and comedic situations. Comedies are created with the primary intention of eliciting laughter and providing lighthearted enjoyment. They encompass a wide range of styles, tones, and themes, appealing to various tastes and audiences.

The sci-fi genre, short for science fiction, features imaginative and futuristic concepts that are often rooted in scientific principles, technology, and possibilities. These stories delve into "what if" questions and can serve as a platform to address contemporary social, political, and ethical issues by projecting them onto future or alternate settings.
