It isn’t often that a fictional television show actually moves me to the point I’m almost in tears. But, last night’s episode of Bones, “The Finger in the Nest,” was one that made me feel like I had a knife stabbed into my heart.
I’m not even sure where to …

Technically, this is season two of the second evolution of Due South, or you could call it season four of Due South as a totality, or you could do what the DVD set does and just combine the last 13 episodes with these next few and call it the …

I wasn’t really looking forward to seeing the Slitheen again as their first appearance didn’t really blow me away. Surprisingly enough, this episode was much improved. We learn that one of the Slitheen from “Aliens of London” and “World War Three” managed to teleport to safety at …

Laramie: The Track of the Jackal from season 2 is one of my favorites because it is one that gives Jess Harper (Robert Fuller) some emotional angst. It opens by sending Slim Sherman (John Smith) on a trip while explaining that Jess is going to be the temporary …

CSI Season 4 Episode 18- Bad to the Bone
It’s quite a nice choice of words to name the episode. I bit ironic, I find. The episode itself was quite good, but I don’t think it was very interesting. I could guess some of the facts before the team did, …

This is actually the first of three episodes from December 1978 that gave a strong role to William Christopher as Father Mulcahy. This initial outing is M*A*S*H: Out of Gas, and it comes about because the 4077th has run out of sodium pentathol, meaning they have to use …

Trailer Story is the third outing for Highway Patrol’s third season. Starring Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews, the head of the California Highway Patrol, this story is the search for a killer.
As far as the production quality goes, it was pretty good. I didn’t really have …

Well, last week’s episode of Ghost Hunters at The Rock wasn’t bad. But, this week’s episode, at Fort Ticonderoga was actually a bit of a disappointment for me.
Here they have this giant fort that has a bunch of claims coming from it and the best evidence they can catch …

My wife and I were watching the show Glee for the first time the other night and, after that show was over, a newer one called Raising Hope came on the air.
Since it was on a channel we rarely watch, I was not aware of this show prior to …

The thing I liked …

The third season of the great police drama Adam-12 began in September 1970 with Log 174: Loan Sharks. The first thing that’s really noticeable is the new introduction. This is the one that ends with the police car rolling into a lot right towards the viewer and …

The comic relief and the ‘oops, please don’t notice we changed actors’ segment of From the Earth to the Moon comes in Part 7: That’s All there Is. This segment is aptly narrated by the character of Alan Bean (Dave Foley).
Actually, what really surprised me is that I’ve …

This is one of the confusing episodes in Criminal Intent history because the story tends to jump around quite a bit and involves a number of different characters, some of whom only appear for a few minutes. The episode opens on a reporter who is being yelled at over …

Junior Apprentice Episode 4 had Lord Alan Sugar sending his apprentice hopefuls on a mission to find and sell art. I’ve seen this type of challenge before, and it’s always an interesting one. Basically, the teams visit several artists and then pick two they want to have …

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 …

This was not the Highlander we all know and love. The Duncan in this movie was dark and brooding and unsure of himself. The movie was choppy-it didn’t have a good flow. There wasn’t much information about the characters and how they all came together. It didn’t …

“Swallowed Alive” may be one of the most intense episodes throughout any season of 21 Jump Street.
While Fuller is gone on vacation, the higher ups send all of his men into juvenile lock-up in order to find out who killed an inmate. Or rather, who is …

Discovery Channel is one of my favorite TV channels of all time. I consider every moment of watching this channel as the greatest way to learn not only for me but for the rest of my family.
I have been finding all …

There are several references to angels in this episode. Not the real angels in white with wings but angels in reference to special people such as Ginger and her acting career and Mr. Howell. Mr. Howell refers himself to an angel with his wings clipped, in other words …

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn Rustic Italian Recipes began with the approachable cook talking about gay pesto, as in fun food and good pesto and pasta to eat. I so often learn from Quinn, and that continues to fascinate me. This first segment was focused on …

This is by far the best comedy series ever, in my opinion, and from the first episode I saw of it, I just could not get enough.
I was fortunate enough to catch most of the episodes, right up to the last episode of the penultimate season, and such is …

The Virginian: 50 Days to Moose Jaw guest starred James Gregory as Slim Jessup. Gregory is a very talented actor and you never know if he’s going to be a good guy, bad guy, crazy guy, or just funny guy. That’s how good he is. You …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Outcast is a very disappointing episode of the series that was supposed to be an episode that explored homosexuality and an alien culture’s desire to “change” those members of the population that exhibit such “unnatural” feelings, however the means in which this …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Return of Roy Carter is written by Gene Roddenberry in his pre-Star Trek days. I have to give the show credit here, too, because it brought back characters regularly for follow ups; at least, that’s what has been happening in the first …

When I first saw the description of Monday’s House episode “Private Lives,” I thought it was going to be similar to another episode we have seen on the show, where a person uses the internet to get an alternative diagnosis.
As it turns out, it was a pretty interesting episode.
The …

The Little King - Christmas Night is a vintage cartoon presented by SoGlow. I actually watched several holiday comics from the golden age today, and this was probably not only the most simplistic of the bunch but my least favorite.
The story revolves around a king who seems a …

I finally got to see the That 70s Show Episode “Love Wisconsin Style.” Well, I should re-phrase that, it wasn’t as though I was waiting forever to see this particular episode. I just missed the part of the series about why Donna and Kelso flee to California for a …

We were watching a Family Guy re-run last night, The Story on Page 1 and I have to say it, it is easily the funniest episode I have seen both of this series and quite a few others I can think of.
To be honest, I’m not even really sure …

During the first season the show struggled a little bit and that becomes clear in this episode. The episode itself features a storyline surrounding a con artist from France. We first see a rich woman heading off to meet up with her lover for the night. When she arrives …

This episode revolves around giant alien bugs that look like large bees. One of them lands on Teal’c’s back while SG1 is scouting a planet. When Jack tries to shoot it, the bug stings Teal’c.
When they get back to Earth, Teal’c tells Janet that he is feeling …

“Hannah Montana!!!!” The screaming of her name, by my 6yr old daughter, about makes my eardrums explode. Hannah Montana is a young actress/singer. Her show is called Hannah Montana and is found on the Disney Channel. Miley Cyrus, daughter of Billy Ray Cyrus, is a …

Blue’s Clues is a tv show on Nick Jr. It is very engaging for young minds, and teaches many things. The characters are all brought to life in a way that reaches out to the minds of young children and captures their attention and developes their imagination. …

Goodness, it’s another show about ventriloquists and their dummies. I just do not like these episodes of any show, and it’s a letdown to see one on a good show like The Twilight Zone. Never the less, that’s what viewers got in April 1964 with the episode …

The latest edition of Shatner’s Raw Nerve featured psychic John Edward. This is the show where William Shatner has a one-on-one casual and unscripted conversation with someone, in this case Edward. I’ve found many of these shows to be pretty fascinating. This may be the first …

“I am alone. Somebody come get me.” This is the phrase that defines this show, and it’s a powerful one.

This episode couldn’t seem to find its tone. Again, the Master comes …

This is a weird show for me. On the one hand I like it but on the other there are so many things wrong with it I feel a little silly for liking it. Absolutely Fabulous is an English show and that means all it’s humor is …
