Gene Simmons’ Family Jewels

I don’t like KISS, and for the most part have not been impressed by Gene Simmons in any way. He generally comes off (as he wishes to come off) as a lewd, crude, horrible little man, and as for the band I think they have practically zero talent …

The L Word

What can I say about this series that will not offend women? Guys love watching attractive women performing lesbian sex. When the scenes are hot, there is an enjoyable time had by all. When the women talk about personal relation problems, this series turns into a …

M*A*S*H: Big Mac

M*A*S*H: Big Mac is from season three and deals with the impending visit of General Douglas McArthur. Is the 4077th ready for a visit from the esteemed general? Well, maybe, especially if Corporal Klinger isn’t standing guard in one of his dresses.
Graham Jarvis appears as Colonel Whiteman, …

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 …

Adam 12 - Logs 61 and 172

I’ve decided to combine these two “Adam-12″ episodes. My favorite of the two is “Log 61″ which evokes heart and compassion from Officer’s Reed and Malloy when they get called to residence for a possible break in.
The call comes from two young children, whose parents are out. …

Justice League Unlimited Season One: Flashpoint

“Flashpoint” is the 23rd episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. This is easily one of the best episodes of the season, even without a big knockdown dragout fight between the heroes and any supervillian. The episode is so great because it starts the beginning of …

Pushing Dasies

I randomly caught myself watching the show Pushing Daisies after flipping the channels to find something to entertain myself. It immediately caught my attention because of how different it was than the other prime-time shows on television currently. Not only was the time period the setting was placed in …

House : Whac-A-Mole

I often wonder as I watch House how good the medicine in the show really is. I can recognize that it is unconventional but is that because it’s dangerous or because it’s fake. It doesn’t really matter most of the time, but I do wonder.
This episode was about an 18 …

Death Note Episode 14

Death Note Episode 14 begins with Light showing Misa his Shinigami Ryuk and then concocting a plan to have her meet L so she can see his real name with her Shinigami eyes and then Light will kill him. He instructs her to send a message to Sakura …

Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Legends of the Dark Mite

Words can not express how amazing this episode is. It’s written by Paul Dini, which is a major indicator of the high quality you’re in for. It also features Bat-Mite voiced by Paul Reubens.
The episode is just so geekily awesome. There are references galore to the …

M*A*S*H: Rainbow Bridge

Sometimes things never seem to go as planned, and on this comedy series, unexpected events frequently occur when the captains are planning to go on leave. In M*A*S*H: Rainbow Bridge, just as Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) and Trapper John McIntyre (Wayne Rogers) are about to head for Tokyo, …

Sliders - The Good, the Bad and the Wealthy

All right, this is a pretty silly episode. The idea of a world where Texas runs America and lawyers decide who wins a case through the barrel of a gun isn’t exactly the most realistic of scenarios. However it is a bit of good fun and when …

The Simpsons Season 6 Episode 16

Bart is obsessed with proving Lisa wrong that the toilet water goes in clockwise direction. however Lisa says that scientifically water in northern hemisphere movies in anti-clockwise, and water in southern hemisphere moves in clockwise direction. Bart is desperate to prove Lisa wrong. He phones up Australia and talks …

Phineas and Ferb: Raging Bully

Well, that was a cute episode of the cartoon Phineas and Ferb. I wasn’t expecting much from an episode entitled Raging Bully and about thumb wrestling but it ended up being much better than I expected. In fact, I think it was downright entertaining.
Basically, in this episode, Phineas finds …

Supernatural: 99 Problems TV Show

I don’t watch this Supernatural television series, so I don’t even know the setup of the story. All I really know is that it’s a science fiction series that airs on the CW network at the moment. However, I had to watch this episode because Michael Shanks …

The Virginian: A Bride for Lars TV show

The Virginian: A Bride for Lars had a lot of good things going for this western outing, but it as fun as some moments were, there was a lot of just plain stupid, mainly in how the character of Trampas (Doug McClure) acted.
The basic setup for the 90 minutes …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: No Way Out TV Show

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: No Way Out, show number twelve, has a teaser that bores me, and that’s not a good sign. It’s another foreign intrigue affair, which oftentimes makes me yawn. However, it picked up after the theme and opening credits. Following …

Wagon Train: The Story of Cain

Wagon Train: The Story of Cain is one of a handful of stories that I remembered for years after seeing it. So many scenes from this episode were stamped into my brain. It was just so memorable that I couldn’t wait to see it again once this …

The Carol Burnett Show: Eydie Gorme and Chuck Barris TV Show

The Carol Burnett Show which included guest stars Eydie Gorme and Chuck Barris aired in its tenth season. The show opened with a Mrs. Wiggens skit. She was the blonde with the rear end that stuck out and was a secretary to Mr. Tudball, who was brilliantly …

Background Story: The story line revolves around the main character Melinda Gordon (played by Jennifer Love Hewitt). As it so happens Melinda has recently gotten married to a paramedic named Jim Gordon, they’ve moved to a small town called Grandview and Melinda has opened up an antique shop. Sounds pretty …

The Office - Blood Drive

“Blood Drive” is the episode of “The Office” that originally aired on NBC on March 5, 2009. This was an average episode that suffered from a lack of Andy Bernard and a very subdued Dwight Schrute.
Pros: Jim and Pam going to lunch with Phyllis and Bob Vance …

Seven days show

Time travel always sounded so great to me. I actually have just one thing in my life that I would like to change and I know I wouldn’t have to do much to change it, just to go back in time to a certain point in my life and …

The Twilight Zone: A Piano in the House TV Show

To me, The Twilight Zone: A Piano in the House is a little on the morose and macabre side of life. It’s eerie in an unpleasant way, and it’s just not one that I enjoy very much. That’s not to say it’s not crafted well, but …

Lost: Because You Left: The Lie

I am always happy when a series I’ve been watching comes back on the air, but there are certain shows which carry more of that certain type of joy. “Lost” is one of them. The season premier of Lost; “Because You Left: The Lie” is two hours long and …

Thriller: The Closed Cabinet TV Show

Thriller: The Closed Cabinet was a good hour of viewing. I haven’t seen these Thriller episodes until recently, and now I’ve seen several, most of which have been nice to view. Hopefully, I’ll be able to see more of them. Boris Karloff has a knack for …

Mr. Monk and the Bully

OK, the Monk episode Mr. Monk and the Bully still doesn’t live up to the standards set by earlier seasons of the show (I can kind of understand why there’s only going to be one more season of the series since they seem to be running out of storylines) …

The Inbetweeners - Series 3 - Episode 6

So we have now come to the end of the third and final series of The Inbetweeners. The final episode focused on the fact that Simon was going to be moving to Swansea and as such, the group of friends were now to be split up, so they go …

Medium (TV Series)

My mother and I sit through re-runs of Medium. When I first saw Medium, I was not too interested since I really have no interest in the paranormal. However, when I inadvertently sat in one of its episodes, I thought it was more plausible than Ghost Whisperer. Medium follows …

Alias Smith and Jones: Never Trust an Honest Man

Alias Smith and Jones: Never Trust an Honest Man is not one of my big favorites, though I am happy that our two adorable ex-outlaws, Hannibal Heyes (Pete Duel) and Kid Curry (Ben Murphy), are together again, as it should be. The main thrust is that while traveling …

Home Improvement: Adventures in Fine Dining

I was home at lunch today and came across a Home Improvement episode, “Adventures in Fine Dining” that I could relate to.
This episode featured the three boys on the show putting up a ruckus at a restaurant (something our daughter is bad about too) and prompting Tim to show …

The Twilight Zone: To Serve Man

This is an episode of “The Twilight Zone” which both my boyfriend and I enjoy more than many other episodes. I think it has also been seen as one of the more popular episodes of the television series which aired from 1959 to 1964. This might be because this …
