The Simpson’s: Tis the Fifteenth Season
OK, it’s only September so I’m a bit curious why they decided to show a Simpson’s episode that was Christmas based already (I’m really not ready to do Christmas shopping yet). But, I will admit it was kind of a decent episode.
Homer decides to get greedy and use his …

Fireball XL5: Faster Than Light
Fireball XL5: Faster Than Light is another good entry for this puppeteering TV show. There’s some action going on here, especially with Fireball XL5 having engine problems. There’s a bit where the ship goes incredibly fast, actually going faster than light speed. Seeing this on screen is …

House TV Episode: Baggage
Well, I thought the show House was finally starting to get things back on track a bit with the episode The Choice. But, then I watched the one called Baggage last night and realized it still hasn’t learned.
I used to watch this show religiously because I loved the medical …
Miranda Episode One
This new sitcom, starring and written by central star Miranda Hart, promises itself as something of a throwback to the classic 70s sitcom, the type where crude but allowable jokes were plenty and cardboard cutout characters were commonplace.
While this show is only starting out, things don’t look good. …
The Twilight Zone: Printer’s Devil TV Show
Burgess Meredith is back for yet another appearance on this classic, groundbreaking science fiction series. In The Twilight Zone: Printer’s Devil , he’s essentially the devil, and he’s brilliant. In my opinion, you can take all of Meredith’s appearances from The Twilight Zone and get a well …

Doctor Who: Season 2, Episode 13: Army of Ghosts
So begins the finale of the second season. Like pretty much every two parter in the show so far, this one is pretty much all build up. It’s well done build up, but build up none the less.
The Doctor and Rose return home so that Rose can …

What a Night for a Knight
I got my daughter the first five episodes of Scooby Doo Where Are You through Netflix and the very first one, What a Night for a Knight still has to be one of the better episodes in the series.
I’ve seen this one a couple times and never realized it …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Mr. T TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast kept on trekking from Las Vegas, Nevada by honoring Mr. T of The A-Team. Now why would they do this? In my opinion, it’s one of the NBC self-promotion shows. The dais was full of NBC stars and not many had …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 2: Partners in Crime
The still companionless Doctor finds himself investigating a new diet pill. As it happens, Donna Noble, the runaway bride, is investigating the same matter. You’d think that they would bump into each other right away so that the plot could get moving, but they don’t realize the …
Super Mario World - The Yoshi Shuffle
Super Mario World - “The Yoshi Shuffle” is one of the show’s most entertaining episodes, I think. In this episode, Luigi gets transformed into an egg by a Magikoopa and stolen by Bully and Cheatsy. Mario and Yoshi follow them to Koopa’s Castle where they must engage in a …
Sea Hunt: Point of No Return TV Show
Sea Hunt: Point of No Return , the opening show of the series’ fourth and final TV season which aired in January 1961, was a bit different. That was mostly a good thing. However, it was also a little confusing in a couple of spots.
The reason the …
Dark Blue (The TV Series)
Dark Blue is a serious series on the lives of deep undercover police officers, so deep that even their fellow cops do not know about it. I think the title is so appropriate considering that the series deals with the dark side of life. I can feel the tension …
Stargate SG-1: Enemies
Season 5 of Stargate SG-1 blasts its way onto the screen in a show called Enemies. It’s a good show well worth the hour watch.

Smallville Season 7 episode 10
This episode with the introduction of DC comics villain Bizarro was well - bizarre. We start of with Bizarro living in Clark’s place, being with Lana and living his life while Clark is trapped at the fortress of solitude. Once Jor El releases him he tries to …
The Waltons TV Show
My favorite TV show ever is The Waltons.
I just love the serenity of the setting, the lifestyle. Although they were not wealthy they were the richest family to me. I still love to watch it, and it is on for 2 hours every morning. Luckily I am an early riser …
The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 3: Squeeze
I think that this, even more so than the two previous episodes, acts as a proto-typical X-Files episode. It has all the things that X-Files fans love. It’s far more atmospheric than the other two and has a stronger story to tell compared to the other two.
It …
Blacke’s Magic: Death Goes to the Movies
Blacke’s Magic: Death Goes to the Movies is a fun entry in my opinion. I like it because the theme is the movie industry, which I’m interested in. In the beginning, magician Alexander Blacke (Hal Linden) is helping a movie company to stage an important part of …
Big Brother: Nomination August 22, 2010 TV Show
The August 22, 2010 episode of Big Brother dealt mainly with the weekly nominations. With Britney as the head of household, just about anything could have happened.

M*A*S*H: Life Time
Alan Alda co-wrote this episode with a physician and then directed it as well. The show is M*A*S*H: Life Time and as the show progresses, a clock is on the screen the entire time. It’s somewhat of a ‘real time’ story, and that’s the unique angle of …
Meg Ryan on Ellen Talk Show Episode
Did you manage to catch Meg Ryan on Ellen Talk Show Episode? Super awesome and Meg was all classy and gorgeous with her nice blonde hair, perky nose, expressive eyes and nice and gorgeous smile despite her age. She will always be one of my most favorite actresses …
Bones: The Pain in the Heart
Sometimes a clever twist at the end of a season finale is a good thing for a series. Other times, like in the case of the show Bones, it might not be such a great move.
I missed seeing the season finale, The Pain in the Heart, when it first …
X-Men episode 3.07: The Phoenix Saga part 5: Child of Light
This episode is pretty much all action as the X-Men try to save the galaxy from D’Ken who has entered the crystal and gone into god mode.
Even the combined might of the Shi’ar guardians and the X-men is no match for the emperor as he taunts them and boasts …
Cold Case - Volunteers show
I don’t get many opportunities to watch the show Cold Case. But, i took part of the day off to take my daughter to the fair (which was ruined by the rain) and ended up watching a re-run of it today “Volunteers.” It was pretty decent.
The show starts out …
The X-Files Scary Monsters Episode
I thought that this was one of the most fascinating episodes from the popular 1990s television show “The X-Files”. I thought it was fascinating first because of the introduction to the show as well as the plot of the whole episode. The characters themselves were also quite interesting especially …
Bones: The Skull in the Sculpture
As far as episodes of Bones go, “The Skull in the Sculpture” was one of the most predictable episodes I’ve seen. I took a wild guess just minutes into the show about who the killer was and was surprisingly right; though I didn’t know the motive.
In fact, everything about …
The Young Rebels: The Ring of Freedom TV Show
The Young Rebels: The Ring of Freedom, the second outing for this show about the Revolutionary War, tells a tale that is often discussed or portrayed in TV shows, and that is the happenings that surround the Liberty Bell. As most know, this symbol of American independence rang …
Roseanne Season Five
The fifth season of Roseanne was one of the last really great seasons of the show. It was before things got too wacky and the show was still grounded in reality a little bit. I thought the only unrealistic thing was when Roseanne, Jackie, and Nancy opened a restaurant …
Desperate Housewives Season 4 Episode 6
You guys have watched Desperate Housewives Season 4, Episode 6..? You should, if you haven’t. It is really a good and amazing episode and this would be one of the most favorite episodes ever in this season 4.

Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 3: The Fires of Pompeii

Sea Hunt: Prima Donna TV Show
Sea Hunt: Prima Donna was the 36th episode of the underwater adventure series’ third season on the air. Can you imagine that — 36th show, and that wasn’t even the last one. Boy, do I miss those days, which in this case was back in September 1960.
Actually, …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Raw
I finally got a chance to watch the full Law & Order SVU episode entitled Raw last night. And, I have to say it was one that got my attention.
Basically, the episode starts out with a school shooting (those always disturb me a bit considering my oldest is in …
