I am a firm believer that television has gone down in quality, especially where comedy is concerned. More often than not, ratings show that the most popular shows in America are the reality shows that ridicule one celebrity or another and sitcoms are nothing more than a combination of …

One of the newest local television stations that came on air in Trinidad recently is called “C” They have a variety of programs, cartoons documentaries, etc. and of course they have a daily news cast which airs at 7pm each night.
As I stated before C is a new television …

“My Life As Liz” is a new reality show that just premiered on MTV a couple of weeks ago. Of all the reality shows I’ve seen, this one, by far, is in a whole other stratosphere. ” My Life As Liz” is a show that a lot of past …

House is the perfect character to draw out the personality in others that is what makes the show House so interesting. As a medical drama it is ok, but not really any better than the others, and as a mystery show it doesn’t work because unless you’ve went to …

This unit is definitely way better than the previous WebTv. Don’t get me wrong, I still have my old WebTv. The only reason I keep it is for nostalgia, not usability. It is still too slow. I was able to connect my MSNTV 2 to my broadband network …

M*A*S*H: Guerilla My Dreams is a pretty intense episode which is also somewhat controversial in how it is played out. Alan Alda, who stars as Hawkeye Pierce, directed this intense episode. The show does include another cameo from Gary Burghoff as Radar O’Reilly. Burghoff has special …

Well now, the episode of House entitled “Lucky 13″ certainly was intended to bring in ratings. After all, who can object to an episode that features Thirteen and one of her female lovers. I have to say it got my attention.
The case itself was actually quite dull. Another patient, …

Have Gun - Will Travel continued its third season with episode 32 entitled Ambush. In this show, the action starts right away without any fanfare, pleasant San Francisco teaser, or polite banter. It’s right to the intensity of the situation that Paladin (Richard Boone) finds himself in.
Paladin …

It’s so hard to write much good about the season six episodes of Stargate SG-1. Without the Daniel Jackson character, the team just wasn’t there. He was the heart and soul of the SGC.
Stargate SG-1: Redemption is the first episode of the sixth season. This is …

Enter the stage another grumpy middle-aged businessman: George Jefferson. Sherman Hemsley perfected the role that made him famous. His business tycoon mentality and “buck the system” attitude made him a success. This success is described in the song accompanying the opening credits. …

This episode shows us what Appa’s been up to since he was kidnapped back in “The Library”. Things didn’t really go so well for him.
He was kidnapped, traded, sold to a circus where the ringmaster was abusive, he managed to escape that only to find that his friends …

I absolutely love the concept behind the animated program, Star Trek: The Time Trap. This 1973 series did a lot of shows that built on some of the live action shows, but they also had several, like this one, which were quite original to the Star Trek universe. …

MacGyver: D.O.A.: MacGyver is a neat little episode where MacGyver gets a nasty case of amnesia and ends up believing that Pete is a terrorist he’s been hunting for years. The face off is really a great bit of angst at the end of the show. It …

Simple mistakes can always be taken the wrong way. And even though the Castaways are a family type group, there are still problems they have to face. Problems like jumping to conclusions to quickly and judging people too harshly. Even with these negative qualities, most of the
Castaways keep a …

On the channel TLC, I watched one of their shows that come on called Hoarders. It’s a quite interesting show about people who collect just about any thing and everything in their house. There homes get very cluttered and make for unlivable housing conditions. In the episode they …

With this episode, the agents face a horror unlike anything they’ve ever seen. Interestingly enough, there is no real X-file, on the contrary, they are pit against what they refer to as a “death fetishist”, someone who collects trophies (such as hair or fingernails) from dead bodies. …

I have heard about the Psych episode American Duos ever since it first aired some time ago. But, for some reason, I have never had an opportunity to actually watch it. So, when I discovered they had the second season of this show available on our Netflix Instant Watch, …

Last night’s Psych season finale “An Evening with Mr. Yang” was somewhat interesting but yet a disappointment at the same time.
I liked the idea of a super-genius serial killer taking on Shawn one-on-one and leaving clues for him to solve to save the life of a waitress and then …

Sometimes on a Friday night when I come home from work I realize that there is not much on television to watch. However, recently I discovered a series that usually airs on the cable television channel Discovery, and I’ve begun to look forward to seeing it. This series is …

A Certain Justice - Part 2 was a bit slower for me than part 1 was. This story is from the P.D. James novel and uses the familiar character of Commander Adam Dalgliesh. As an American, I assume commander is a detective. That seemed to be …

I honestly don’t watch the show According to Jim all that much, even though there seem to be re-runs on all the time. I’ve seen a few episodes and they were OK but they never seemed to offer anything that was any different from other series.
I did, however, end …

The 11th show of the fifth season, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Brothers was a good one, full of surprises. In the show, Paladin (Richard Boone) is hired to bring back accused murderer, Bram Holden, for trial. However, it’s not an easy task, beginning with Paladin …

From June 1962, the fifth season of this successful western series, Have Gun - Will Travel: The Knight was a somewhat odd show to me in the way that it played out. It opens with some fun in San Francisco, at the Hotel Carlton where Paladin (Richard Boone) …

Hair Battle Spectacular has concluded its first season on the Oxygen network with their unusual finale episode. In the finals were Fingaz, Minista, and Tsunami, all of whom were competing to be the best in the world of fantasy hairdos.
Because it was the finals, there wasn’t a Check …

The Twilight Zone: The New Exhibit is a creepy show from 1963. It’s about a rather docile man who works for a wax museum. He becomes anxious when the museum closes and his most prized wax figures are in danger of being destroyed. Ultimately, the owner …

I really enjoy this season one entry. Stargate SG-1: Tin Man is a bit of fun for me. Our team is cloned, well, actually, they become synthetic copies of themselves, and the process of them finding that out and dealing with their emotions is just awesome.
Richard Dean …

The Veil: The Return of Madame Vernoy was a very compelling story that had me fascinated from the beginning. It’s a story that takes place in India. In 1927, a young Indian woman, whose husband was a Frenchman, gave birth and died a week later. A …

Beast Wars - A Better Mousetrap is an episode that primarily focuses on Rattrap, although the episode also provides newcomers Blackarachnia and Tigertron with some material that allows their characters to be fleshed out a bit more. This episode is also a treat in the respect that much like …

I ended up watching Home Improvement at lunch today because Hogan’s Heroes wasn’t on. It was a somewhat funny episode: “Mr. Wilson’s Opus.”
Basically, Randy convinces Wilson to direct Romeo & Juliet for their school play and Wilson agrees and Tim agrees to design the set. The only problem is, …

Highway Patrol: Fisherman’s Luck didn’t feel very lucky to me. It was just one of those half hour offerings when I wasn’t lured into the story or captivated by what was happening within the ranks of this fictionalized California Highway Patrol department.
Perhaps the reason for my lack of …

I have been watching the TV series Star Trek Voyager for a while now and I am on season 3 episode 18 which is called “The Darkling.” In many ways the title is fitting for this episode. They exchange supplies for knowledge of what lies ahead in this …

Chase: Havoc was one of the more interesting hours of this freshman NBC series that focuses on a team of United States Marshals. The head of the team is Annie. She’s a bit of a wild cannon in my opinion and I’m not sure yet if I …

Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 1- Payback
An interesting beginning to a series. Although I think it was a little bit too dramatic, it did make an impact and was interesting to watch. The only thing that really bothered me was that by trying to introduce …

A witch hunt has been declared and for one child, a witch hunt marks the line in between life or death. This is the second episode of Trinity blood and is titled “Witch Hunt” for the record. Father Abel Nightroad and Father Tres “gunslinger” Iqus are under orders …

When I was a child I loved alternating between cable television channels such as Disney, Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network because at the time they seemed to have some of the best after-school series and cartoons especially at one period of time. One of my favourites in particular was an …

Actor Mike Farrell, who plays B.J. Hunnicutt, finally gets to direct an episode of this great comedy series. M*A*S*H: Ain’t Love Grand has a few different elements going on, including Major Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) getting involved with a lady of the evening over at …

The Munsters - My Fair Munster is a hilarious episode of The Munsters that I always laugh at no matter my mood. Part of what makes this episode so hilarious is the technique that those responsible for the show employ and the technique I am referring to is when …

I have always enjoyed the cartoon called South Park. This show is just funny. I really like all the characters. I like the funny music in the show as well as the sound effects. I think the story lines in south park are really dumb. But I also think that …

The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is a late night show. This show usually comes on the same time Conan does, well I guess it would be the Jimmy Fallon show now. I love Craig Ferguson since the first time I caught his show. He doesn’t always have …

The show Everybody loves Raymond is one of the worst shows that could have possibly been put on the air. It really is a stupid show and I could only stomach this show a few times before I got so sick of it. This show truly was a disaster.
I …

Some think that this show, with it’s lighter and softer take on the DC Universe isn’t capable of telling great stories. This episode proves them wrong.
It’s a simple tale, android hero Red Tornado builds himself a son so that he can experience a family for himself. While …

After it’s first season, the show Psych has gotten a bit stale. But, one of the more recent episodes “Murder…anyone…anyone…Bueller” isn’t too bad compared to many of the other newer episodes.
This one takes place at Sean and Gus’ high school reunion and Sean witnesses a classmate falling from the …

There are a few notable things about M*A*S*H: The Price of Tomato Juice from the fourth season of the medical comedy series. First, it’s just the fun of watching Radar O’Reilly (Gary Burghoff) trying to work some magic and get Colonel Potter (Harry Morgan) tomato juice for breakfast …

Yet again, viewers are given a situation where minds are affected from broadcast transmissions in an airing of the half-hour series, Max Headroom. In Neurostim from 1988, the theory put forth is that a rival of Network 23’s is able to directly stimulate the brain to get commercial …
