Most were about everyday people caught in supernatural circumstances. Most episodes culminated in a twist ending. Many …

John Doe: The Rising is the final episode of this one-year episode and it essentially picks up not all that long after the last show ended. The topic in it was remote viewing, and John Doe (Dominic Purcell) was the subject. It’s actually a little disturbing to …

When I heard Melrose Place was going to be remade I thought it wouldn’t be very good. The thing about Melrose Place and 90210 was they were perfect in the nineties because they reflected the values of culture being pushed to the limits. Today when television has such …

Synopsis: Modernized version of this couple’s show airing on Game Show Network. This show pits three newly married couples against each other in a game where they have to guess the correct answer their spouse would give to specific questions.
What I like about this show: One of the interesting …

The Ghostbusters are hired on as consultants for a horror movie. It seems like a simple gig, but things get bad fast. Considering how many stories there are of haunted sets and “cursed” shoots, you might think that this is where the plot is going. As …

I love the opening to this episode of Sea Hunt which is called. Mike Nelson, our resident deep see diver, is working on a project that is less stressful than most, and he’s enjoying it. Then all of a sudden, it starts to rain money, and he’s …

In Laramie: The Fatal Step, there is another strong guest cast to go along with the excellent partnership of John Smith and Robert Fuller as friends and co-workers, Slim Sherman and Jess Harper, respectively. I am just always amazed at the strong acting that was scene in this …

Most monster of the week episodes end with a sequel hook, a quick scene showing that the monster survived and that it will kill again. It’s something of a horror staple, but within the confines of the show, they are rarely followed up on. This episode is …

I haven’t watched the Show American Dad in some time now and don’t remember a whole lot about each of the characters. But, there wasn’t much on TV last night so I figured I would take the time to watch Rapture’s Delight.
It was an OK episode, but I feel …

On VH1 Classic they had a really good documetnary on the legendary Lemmy Kilmister, the bassist and vocalist for Motorhead. The movie was like an insight of his life as a rock god. It seems as he lives a very modest life for a 63 year old rockstar. …

I really love this episode, not so much because the episode mystery is particularly good (It’s not, I’ll get to that in a second) but because we get to see Veronica helping Wallace out and we really get a sense of how far she would go for her friends. …

Sea Hunt: Killer Rock opens with deep sea diving expert Mike Nelson in a business suit headed for a meeting with a woman named Evelyn Hodges. She owns a company that wants to take on a dangerous ocean job that is, at the least, explosive.
Lloyd Bridges stars as …

I’ve talked a bit about the fashion in season’s four That Girl, and that’s why I get a kick out of the fact that in the first moments of That Girl: The Snow Must Go On, Don Hollinger walked into Ann Marie’s apartment and teased her about her new …

As reality t.v shows go, Come Dine With Me is a show that does what the title suggests.
Five people from the same area of the U.K who have not met each other before each host a dinner party, which tends to consist of 3 courses and a bit of …

After last night’s Simpson’s repeat, I left the TV on and started watching the Family Guy episode that was following it; Quagmire’s Dad. About 10 minutes into the episode, I realized it really wasn’t suitable for my daughter and sent her out of the room (I told her she …

Michael Landon had the honor of being roasted as the Man of the Hour in this mid-seventie edition of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. He also was honored again during the last season of roasts, making him one of only four performers to receive tribute twice with the …

I have to say this episode is quite fun to watch. Gilligan has to be the versatile character since he has different roles to play. Gilligan roles yes, but he performed each role of old man, bald man and Gilligan himself. There was that nagging unrealistic use of crude …

Band of Brothers episode 5 Crossroads has Easy Company facing off with German resistance and is centered on Richard Winters who has been promoted and has to give a detailed report of the battle.
This episode was really intense and the war scenes in it were insane. You …

One of the new dramatic shows for the 2010 Fall TV season is called Undercovers:. It has a very big action beginning that is very spy like. That, of course, is appropriative since this hour long show is indeed about a couple of spies. This first …

Season ten of Stargate SG-1 plods forward with an episode called Company of Thieves. About the best moment here is when Daniel is in control of the Odyssey. Of course, he’s flown the Prometheus and various Goa’uld vessels, so commanding the Odyssey should be a piece of …

The Secret life of the American Teenager focuses on a fifteen year old Amy who has a one night stand with a drummer at band camp and winds up pregnant.
Good concept, it’s new to bring a teen pregnancy into the spotlight and approach it with a little humour as …

I love Friends Episode: The One Where the Stripper Cries. It is a truly awesome episode and one that I will always remember. Monica and Rachel gets the service of this male stripper for Phoebe, something like a Hen Night and it went all wrong the minute the …

I thought this episode was really interesting, just from the point of view of the human drama of it. I don’t know if the investigation was really that interesting or exciting. I do know for sure that the acting like a Russian part did not go well. It was …

The Fugitive: Tug of War from season two is an interesting show that pits two law enforcement types against each other. Both want to bring Kimball in, and it’s quite the guessing game as to who will be the victor as the show progresses.
Don Gordon guest stars as …

Not everyone loves Stargate SG-1: Space Race as much as I do, but I just think this whole show is a hoot. I remember going into it that I thought I wouldn’t like it, that there wouldn’t be much of Jack and Daniel. It was definitely touted …

Here’s to the Future is the first part in the two-hour finale for Season 5 of Grey’s Anatomy. And if you’re a fan of the series, you would know that season finales are usually one of the best episodes in the series.
The episode revolved around Izzie and her …

Like the beginning of this tale, Due South: Chicago Holiday: Part 2 has about enough dialog in it to fill a half-hour show, if that. It relies heavily on music and the visual aspect of following a matchbook all across the town. The matchbook has a list …

What a horrible way to go out. The legendary Star Trek series ended its three year run on NBC on June 3, 1969 with a show called Turnabout Intruder. In this show, one of Kirk’s old flames wants revenge for him leaving her, so she actually uses …

Friends Episode: The One Where Chandler Gets Caught is super cool, and this is one of the best episodes ever. How can one just not do without watching Friends while going through their everyday lives..?
I know I did and I love it so much. In this episode, we …

I recently started to watch Billy the exterminator on A & E because it was right after Dog the Bounty Hunter which I absolutely love. I think that A & E has a lot of good reality shows, and I tend to watch a lot on this channel. Billy …

Synopsis: This SyFy Channel show has Chef Marcel attempting to make meals for weddings, etc. using some unique scientific methods and experiments while in his kitchen.
What I liked about this show: I have to admit, the tools he uses along with some of the techniques are pretty cool. In …

If you’ve read my reviews before, you know that one of the themes of TV shows that I don’t like are ones that focus on any kind of hand to hand fighting, such as boxing. These stories do not appeal to me. I tune out early and …

Stargate SG-1: Desperate Measures has its moments, but it’s another story that is Earth-based and not really a big favorite.
Among the pluses is another appearance by Tom McBeath as Harry Maybourne, and that means some good Jack and Harry craziness. The two characters have a crazy connection and …

Recently, one of my favourite persons on tv appeared on the Ellen Degeneres Show….Hugh Laurie other know as the only doctor on television with a cure for end-of-the-weekend-itis….yes, Dr. Gregory House himself….and like i’ve said over and over again, I just looove Ellen Degeneres…and no..not the Portia kinda love …

This episode had some potential, but inevitably fell flat for me. It was interesting to see the monster of the week get killed off in the stinger, and have its death be the subject of investigation. It seemed like a nice inversion, but at about the halfway …

I’m typically open-minded when it comes to the cartoons my daughter watches. Most on television have something objectionable but she’s smart enough not to copy what she sees and I do my part to make sure she understands right from wrong.
The cartoon “My Gym Partner’s A Monkey,” which appears …

The first phrase that comes to my mind when I think about the pilot episode for The Defenders is ’smart move. When word first came out about this show, the word was that it was going to be a re-do of the popular lawyer series from the 60’s …

It is the Simpsons Christmas episode. It begins with a special show by Krusty and the gang. Whilst enjoying the show, suddenly a fight emerges between Krusty’s cast. they begin to fight and the show is off. The next scene shows the entire family going shopping at Costington’s. There …

For years, Saturday nights has been for football highlights from the top flight in England. At about 10:30pm you can turn on BBC 1 and watch the highlights of the games that have been played during the day. I have grown up with the show and it’s great, but …

This week’s “Legend of the Seeker” was far better than past episodes. “The Legend of the Seeker” is based on Terry Goodkind’s sword of truth series of books, and for the first time watching an episode felt like it was really connected to the book.
I’ve been trying to be …

Ice Road Truckers: Blood on the Dalton was a very dramatic outing for this History Channel reality series. The title was very appropriate as the hour long program focused on some unpleasant events that occurred at this part of the ice trucking season.
There were several points of interest. …

I Sing the Body Electric is one of my very favorite episodes of The Twilight Zone. Actually, this work has been done as a movie and TV show, and I haven’t seen a version I don’t like. This story goes from when the grandmother is conceived of …

A modern day Snow White and the 7 Dwarves, if Snow White was a blond who didn’t go to sleep and the Dwarves were reduced to 4 nerds, The Big Bang Theory is a show that is picking up a very strong fan base, based on the old theory …

The Virginian opens its fourth season with a show called, The Brothers. The cast was actually a very strong one and that helped to make it more watchable. Still, it always amazes me how this show fragments its casts so much. I would think that they …

My wife didn’t stay up to watch it, but I managed to see the latest episode of Psych last night; Not So Close Encounters. And, so far, I think it is the best one I have seen this season.
Basically, we learn early on that Shawn and Gus are obsessed …

Life gets crazy in science fiction, and that’s certainly true for Stargate Atlantis: Vegas which is a sort of homage to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. There was a lot of buzz about this episode when it was done, so I was curious to see how it played out …
