Bones: Double Trouble in the Panhandle
The last few episodes of the show Bones have been a bit dull compared to what the series previously offered. So, I was pleasantly surprised last night when the show returned to TV with an episode entitled “Double Trouble in the Panhandle.”
In my opinion, everything about this episode was …
The Andy Griffith Show: Rafe Hollister Sings TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Rafe Hollister Sings is quite the entertaining half hour episode of this successful comedy series from the early sixties. I love the songs, the lightheartedness of it, and the comedic beats which are family oriented, meaning this show is enjoyable for all ages. …

How many of you love watching Extreme Makeover (Home Edition) and loving every single minute of the show presented by ABC Channel? Well, I do. In fact, I love the show so much that no one could ever come across the TV when I watched the show …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Survivors
Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Survivors is one of my favorite episodes of the entire series. The reason it is one of my favorite episodes is because this episode really has a great deal going for it: an well-crafted and intriguing mystery, some exciting ship to ship …
Project Runway TV Episode: Season 8 Premiere
Well, my wife is once again spending her Thursday nights watching Project Runway on Lifetime. This started last night with the season 8 premiere of the series. And, unfortunately, I think the series is continuing to get worse and worse every year.
First of all, the contestants this year seem …

The Closer TV Episode: Makeover
I have never been a bit fan of the show The Closer. I never really found anything about it I didn’t like. I just think there are too many cop shows on TV now and can only watch so many without feeling a bit burnt out.
However, I didn’t turn …
Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 2
Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 2 continues the P.D. James story that takes place at Nightingale Hospital. This confines the story to taking place mostly in the hospital, and thus, it’s a story I like better than several of the other city location stories. For whatever …
That Girl: Two for the Money
As the series winds down, That Girl gave us one last typical episode in the name of Two for the Money. In the story, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) is on a modeling assignment at the racetrack. We get to see her doing all kinds of poses and …

I Love New York Season One (TV show)
This is like a soap opera with much better actors. The stuff New York puts them through is pretty funny and it is amusing to watch them all trash each other. I do nto expect any lasting love for her nor even really care but the show was amusing …
The Beast: Bitsy Big-Boy Boomeroo
I gotta say from the start that I’m still not sure where the title comes from. Maybe I’ll get it from a second showing. Regardless, The Beast: Bitsy Big-Boy Boomeroo was an interesting show. It had many elements that I liked and a couple that I …

Buffy the vampire Slayer
I really enjoyed the series, or at least most of it. I have watched and rewatched it, laughed, cried and been terrified. And for the most part it was a good television show but there were some things that really annoyed me.
I hated the way they were inconsistent with …
Hogan’s Heroes: Klink’s Escape
Well, I have to say, the second episode of Hogan’s Heroes I watched at lunch today wasn’t as good as I was expecting it to be.
I think this might have been an earlier episode because they seemed to still be focused in helping other POWs escape and there isn’t …
Highway Patrol: Reckless Driving TV Show
This first season episode of Highway Patrol, Reckless Driving, is all about being in a hurry and ignoring the speed limit. All things considered, it’s as relevant today as it was back in 1955. People can still be careless idiots on the road. They were then, …
Getting On (BBC4)
Comediennes Jo Brand, and the lesser known Jo Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine bring us a satirical look at the day to day workings of a modern NHS hospital.
It’s a strange show to first get into, using mainly ad-libbed dialogue and some camera work you’d expect from the likes …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Bob Wire TV Show
The funny thing about the Bob Wire episode of Have Gun - Will Travel from season six is that I didn’t realize the title was the name of a character. I was thinking it was an object, like barbed wire. Alas, Bob Wire is the name of …
Stargate: Infinity: The Key TV Show
Major Gus Bonner’s team of SG cadets continues their journey in Stargate: Infinity: The Key, which is the 18th outing of the animated series which lasted but a single season.
The society in this show lives in what they call the commonality. It’s more like everyone being one thought. …
The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown
The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown opens with senseless cruelty towards animals so I’m very leery of this episode from the start. Normally, I change the channel at this point, but I think it might have just been a passing plot device. Whatever the story involves, there’s a …
Highway Patrol: Policewoman TV Show
Season three of Highway Patrol featured a show titled simply Policewoman. This 27th program of the year had a new twist that I really enjoyed quite a bit. The action in the first portion of the show is featured away from the normal cast that includes Broderick …

Halfway through its second season, Star Trek aired The Gamesters of Triskelion in which Kirk, Uhura, and Chekhov are taken from the Enterprise to Triskelion where they are enslaved as thralls, forced to fight for the amusement of their captors.
I can’t say much about the costumes in this arena …
South Park: Whale Whores
Playing into what is popular at the time is what South Park seems to aim for these days, and this episode, entitled “Whale Whores”, is a prime example of this. The Japanese travel around killing dolphins and whales, and it is up to Stan, who takes over an anti …

CSI Season 8, Episode 1
I have never been a fan of the Gil and Sarah relationship, which is probably why I was so disappointed with this episode. I hadn’t watched the show the previous season, but turned in like a lot of fans because I wanted to see what happened. The episode picked …
The Simpson’s: Great Wife Hope
I haven’t watched too many new episodes of the Simpson’s lately so I didn’t realize last night’s episode Great Wife Hope, was a repeat rather than a new episode (I looked it up this morning).
In any case, it really wasn’t as good of an episode as I thought it …
Bravo
Bravo is a channel that I occasionally watch on television. The thing that I like about the channel is that it has some good shows on it. The thing I don’t like about the channel is that is plays the shows over and over. One day they will have …
Stargate Atlantis: Brain Storm
Stargate Atlantis: Brain Storm is a last season entry of this science fiction series, and it’s surprisingly intriguing. I’m very surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. As a rule, I don’t like this show. Through this episode, there have only been about …
Shear Genius
The Bravo reality show Shear Genius hosted by Jacklyn Smith is superb. Who would of thought to make a reality show about hair cutters. The challenges are so interesting, and especially if you are female you know how women are always looking for new hairstyles. You …

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 2, Episode 15
This episode breaks the format a little in that we don’t get one narrative, rather a series of small stories that focuses on each of the main characters.
We get one for Katara and Toph that has them bonding after Katara invites her for a girls day out. The …
Star Trek: Turnabout Intruder TV Show
What a horrible way to go out. The legendary Star Trek series ended its three year run on NBC on June 3, 1969 with a show called Turnabout Intruder. In this show, one of Kirk’s old flames wants revenge for him leaving her, so she actually uses …

Friends Episode: Phoebe the Massage Assistant
Friends Episode: Phoebe the Massage Assistant is really super funny, hilarious and there are just no words to describe how truly funny she is. I think she is really original and in Friends, she goes through so many paths of careers and the part where she works as a …
Code Geass Episode 9 (Anime)
Code Geass Episode 9 focuses on Kallen and her daily life as a student; we also learn about her mother and learn that she has a tragic home life, along with her double life at school.
I did think that this episode was very interesting and it gave Kallen more …
Top Shot: The Razor’s Edge TV Show
Top Shot: The Razor’s Edge was full of action and emotion. I really like this competition show where top shooters face off against one another using all types of weaponry. This one was a bit of a surprise as the elimination challenge involved the use of Bowie …
Highway Patrol: Scared Cop TV Show
Highway Patrol: Scared Cop felt very odd to me. The story revolves around one of the members of the California Highway Patrol. He’s an officer on the force who is due for promotion, but when we first meet him, he’s making a stop of a speeding car. …
Dead at Seventeen

Jason had been acting strangely the previous two days. Alyssa feels guilty for not listening to …

Voiced by Moneca Stori, …
Frasier: Shrink Rap
I haven’t seen the show Frasier in a long while. But, I was a bit bored tonight and there wasn’t a whole lot else on TV so I tuned it in to the episode “Shrink Rap.”
The great thing about the show is the interaction between Frasier and his brother …
The Twilight Zone: The Last Night of a Jockey TV Show
The fact that it’s the fifth season really shows for The Twilight Zone. There are several shows in a row that I just don’t like, and The Last Night of a Jockey from October 1963 is another one of them. The stories had some good actors, but …
Babylon 5: Season 1, Episode 11: Believers
From the opening shot, you can tell what the plot of this episode is going to center on. A sick, bed ridden boy and two parents wearing what look like ceremonial robes. You don’t even need the episode title to tell you that the boy is going …

On the Run Silver Bandit Episode
I really liked this episode. I thought it was just completely hilarious. Although I must say that if felt just a little bit too long, but that was due to the crimes of the individual criminal because he kept getting away all the time and the police had to …
