Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum must work together to stage a fake moon landing in the final Fly Me to the Moon trailer.

In the 1960s Space Race, the United States and the Soviet Union were heated rivals as each nation raced to reach the moon. While preparing to launch the Apollo 11 mission, NASA recruits Kelly Jones (Johansson) to become their marketing specialist. With the entire world watching the mission, NASA needs a backup plan in case things go wrong. Although Apollo 11 launch director Cole Davis (Tatum) opposes the idea, he reluctantly agrees to film a fake moon landing with Kelly, which sparks a potential relationship between the two.

Besides Johansson and Tatum, Fly Me to the Moon‘s ensemble features Nick Dillenburg, Anna Garcia, Jim Rash, Noah Robbins, Colin Woodell, Christian Zuber, Donald Elise Watkins, Ray Romano, and Woody Harrelson.

Doctor Who season 14’s episodes, ranked
Ruby, the Doctor, and Mel stand together in Doctor Who.

And just like that, the latest season of Doctor Who has come to an end. The long-running BBC sci-fi series kicked off its current, Russell T Davies-run era late last year with a trio of David Tennant-led 60th anniversary specials that were, in turn, followed by the show's 2023 Christmas special, The Church on Ruby Road. That episode formally introduced viewers to Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor and his first companion, Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), and it set up a series of cosmic, time-hopping adventures to come.

The season that has since aired didn't prove to be the full-blown home run that some may have wanted. It did, however, successfully breathe life back into Doctor Who and brought with it more than a few memorable new entries in the series' ever-growing list of great installments. With that in mind, now that Gatwa's first Doctor Who season is over, here are all nine of its episodes -- ranked from worst to best.
