Some later Simpsons episodes aren’t as good as the earlier ones. But the episode “Lard of the Dance” is actually quite interesting.

For me, one of the things that stands out about Adam-12: The Tip is that Chuck Courtney has an uncredited part as bad guy, Russell Simms. I’m not sure why he didn’t make the end theme credits, but for some reason, Adam-12 had a habit of not crediting …

The Reel World of Frank Buck concerns a documentary maker who wants to get footage of Buck in action in this episode of Bring ‘Em Back Alive from 1985. Bruce Boxleitner stars as Buck, but I’m not impressed with him at all. He’s never been an actor …

Stargate SG-1: The Changeling is the second really good episode of the sixth season of SG-1, and for good reason — Michael Shanks guest stars. Of course, by now, it was pretty obvious the man would be back as a regular. It was just a matter of time.
This …

Basically, …

From 1965, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Left-Handed Man was a second year show, the sixth of the season actually. The series starred Richard Basehart as Admiral Nelson and David Hedison, my favorite, as Captain Crane.

Stargate SG-1: Homecoming concludes the two-parter where Daniel Jackson returns to the series after a one-year hiatus. Oddly, his character is teamed with his so-called replacement, Jonas Quinn. There was some concern that the two might have difficulties performing together, but they didn’t.
Fans, however, had some difficulties …

This episode brings 24 back, still in ghost form and guiding 21. 21’s really become a competent character. For most of the season, the joke was that he thought he had, as the trope says, taken a level in badass, but it turns out it’s starting to …

I was scrolling down TVguide.com this morning and came across the show 20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders on E! Since that sort of thing intrigues me, I figured I would give it a chance tonight.

It’s time for the annual physicals at the 4077th unit, hence the third season show, M*A*S*H: Check-Up. There’s a bunch of small scale antics, ranging from Henry Blake examining Radar O’Reilly and Hawkeye Pierce examining Hot Lips Houlihan. The big story, though, comes when Trapper John McIntyre …

It’s one of his more daring and uncomfortable endeavours; opting for more head on investigation than the lighter distractions his Weird Weekend series had to offer, but all the same, Theroux carries …

First of all, I did not expect that I would learn to love CW’s One Tree Hill series. I have been a loyal viewer of the series since the airing of its first season when its characters were in their teenage years. Now it has made to its sixth …
