Judge Judey
I enjooy watching TV. An I get a kick out of watching people on TV doing “reality shows” I have watched Judge Judy for years, she is entertaining.
There are plenty of Judge or court shows on TV and I believe that the Judy Judy series is …
Outlaw: In Re: Tracy Vidalin TV Show
Outlaw: In Re: Tracy Vidalin gave Jimmy Smits’ character of ex Supreme Court Justice Cyrus Garza a bit of unexpected drama to tackle. This story includes a twist towards the end that some might see coming early on, but others will be surprised at. It is one …

The Simpsons: That 90s Show
Of all the things I’ve seen Marge and Homer’s marriage have to survive in the almost two decades worth of Simpsons episodes, I never realized he almost lost her to a college professor; something that is revealed in the episode entitled “That 90s Show.”
The great thing about this episode …
Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?
This has got to be the stupidest of all the prime-time quiz shows. I’ve got to admit that I’m not a big fan of the all these new quiz shows, and I don’t really understand their appeal. The title actually gives you an elevated idea of the content — …
Models of the Runway: It’s My Party and I’ll Wear What I Want to
Well, it has happened. When Models of the Runway first came out, I thought it was a refreshing show that gave a nice behind the scenes look at the models of Project Runway. But, I also knew, at some point, the elimination at the end would start getting a …
Ghost Adventures TV Series
There are a lot of people who believe in ghosts or spirits or whatever you want to call the afterlife, or even just a transitional part of going from one phase to another. Then there are those who believe it’s all a bunch of hooey. Real or …
Doctor Who: Season 1, Episode 2: The End of the World
This episode picks up where the last left off, with Rose entering the TARDIS and joining the Doctor on his adventure. He asks her where in time she wants to go and she responds by suggesting they jump forward a century, and then 10,000 years. Oddly enough, …
Jeremiah: City of Roses
“I am alone. Somebody come get me.” This is the phrase that defines this show, and it’s a powerful one.
In my opinion, Jeremiah: City of Roses has been the best show of the series thus far, and in it, Malcolm-Jamal Warner really shines. When we first …
Last Comic Standing
If you like to watch stand up comedy a great new reality show called Last Comic Standing is for you. They start out with l6 contestants and week after week they are given challenges which evolve around performing stand up. The audience votes and the next week …
High School of the Dead Anime Series
I have never been a fan of anything that features zombie. But I happened to watch High School of the Dead because I want to watch something new in the world of anime and zombies in anime are not as scary as the “real” zombies in movies or TV …
That Girl: The Drunkard
Sid Caesar as Marty Nichols, Sid Melton as the assistant director, and Buddy Lester as the bartender make up the guest cast for this episode of That Girl called The Drunkard. It’s almost the end of the second season for this successful ABC comedy series about budding actress …
The Lifestyle Channel
Not only is this a great channel that Foxtel Australia have, but it’s also available on timeshift so if you miss a program you can see it 2 hours later - fantastic. There are so many programs I like on this channel, the City Gardener who transforms …
Chasing Mummies: Bats TV Show
There was something amazing about watching Chasing Mummies in this latest Bats episode. It was relatively calm and peaceful. With two archaeological fellows, Lindsay and Zoe, now out of the picture, what viewers were treated to was a really intriguing look at Egypt and the pyramids.
Early on, …
Ghost Hunters: 2 Houses
Ok, the first episode of Ghost Hunters that is on disk 3 of season two is an absolute joke. I like this series but the episode, entitled “Two Houses” was basically as boring as the others I have seen this season.
The team is called in to investigate two houses. …
Quincy, M.E.: Go Fight City Hall… to the Death TV Show
Quincy, M.E.: Go Fight City Hall… to the Death from 1976 is the pilot for this crime drama. It told a story not often seen on TV and that is the role of the medical examiner. Played by Jack Klugman, Quincy is a fighter. His personal …
The Fall Guy: License to Kill: Part 1 TV Show
Midway through its first season, The Fall Guy presented a two part episode which turned out to be the best of the season to that point. License to Kill: Part 1 was the most intriguing episode, the first one that all these years later, I really wanted to …
Super Why! The Princess and the Pea
I had heard of the show Super Why before. But, I had never had a chance to actually sit down with my daughter to watch it. Last night, however, I got home and she had it playing on our Netflix player and I had a chance to watch the …
Seven days Season 2 Episode 20
So for the episode 19 I wrote that is was really a ridiculous one, but this one is not far behind.
There’s this girl in Boston who can’t find a prom date so she invites the cutes guy in the school. She is a nerd so the boy refuses her …
Mash the TV show
Mash was an old TV show that took awhile to grow onto me but after watching it a few times I thought that the show ended up being great and there was so much that was funny about this show and I honestly think that this show was great. …
Dancing with the Stars: 200th Show Results TV Show
The only real problem with the Dancing with the Stars results show for this 200th Performance week, the 7th week of the current season, is that it had to deal with election results break ins. I strongly suspect that is why the normal hour allotment was changed to …
Paul McCartney: Good Evening New York City
Paul McCartney: Good Evening New York City was a wonderful hour of entertainment presented on television on Thanksgiving in the United States. Sir Paul has performed for decades and is a favorite of so many generations. It’s just amazing to see his success. From the Beatles …
The Cosby Show
The Cosby Show is timeless. Even though this show most likely came out before I was even born, I still enjoy watching it. Bill Cosby is funny but in a very classy way. He adds a certain elegance to the show. I appreciate the fact that Bill plays the …
The Simpsons: Wedding for Disaster
I’ve mentioned before that I’m a bigger fan of earlier Simpsons episodes rather than later ones. And, tonight’s episode “Wedding for Disaster” is a good example of why.
This was one of the most pointless episodes I’ve seen. You have Marge and Homer being “unmarried” once again and, because Homer …
Big bang Theory: The Euclid Alternative
Every time I watch Big Bang Theory I like it more. This is a smart show which manages to be almost constantly funny. In this episode Sheldon needs to find a ride because Leonard is working nights for a couple weeks.
Sheldon is almost always funny, but watching him in …
Spartacus: Gods of the Arena (tv series)
“Spartacus: Gods of the Arena” is the second season of the very popular television series that was airing on Starz. While the season has finished now, I did not have many complaints about it when it was still going on, except for the fact maybe that I thought it …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Lake TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Lake aired in July 1989, and it’s turned out to be one of my favorites so far. This is the third season of Bradbury science fiction stories that aired, and it’s been pretty much a love/hate relationship for me. A show either …
Private Eye: Blue Movie
From October 1987, Private Eye: Blue Movie, opens up with Congressman Tom McNeal watching a movie. We learn that he has an illegitimate daughter, Eva Miles, who is the actress on the screen. He says that he wants to find her. That’s his story, anyway, though …

Judge Mathis Television Show
I am a huge fan of the Judge Mathis Television Show. In a genre where the majority of television judges attempt to be too strict and harsh, Judge Mathis is able to maintain a feeling in his courtroom of humor and accountability. It does not matter what …
The Soup - E! Entertainment Television
I am very into pop culture. It’s my guilty pleasure. I secretly buy the glossy magazines and I watch all kinds of entertainment news. For a long time now I’ve been watching The Soup. First off, I have to admit that I have a serious crush on Joel …
Married With Children Episode 9.17: 25 Years and What Do You Get?
What a marked improvement over the last episode this was. Both plotlines brought laughs throughout. Heck, even Buck had some great dialogue. Which is impressive as, by and large, using voice over to convey animal thoughts, from what I’ve seen, is rarely effective.
It’s interesting how both …
Hack / / SIGN (Anime)
The World is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, where each person can have the appearance, personality, sex and other characteristics they want for their character and where they can do practically anything people can do in the real world, also players have total freedom of movement as well …

If You Have Tears is the 20th episode of the first season for the hit western, The Virginian. This 90-minute color episode centered on a friend of The Virginian’s who is accused of murder. James Drury, who plays the title role of the series, was also the …
Star Trek: Voyager - Inside Man
“Inside Man” is a season seven episode of “Star Trek: Voyager” that I like a little, but that is about it. What I like about this episode is that two characters from “Star Trek: The Next Generation” appear: Lt. Barclay and Counselor Troi appear and deliver entertaining moments, especially …
Heroes Season 1 Episode 2-Don’t Look Back
Heroes Season 1 Episode 2-Don’t Look Back
This was another great episode in the amazing series heroes. A good introduction and first episode, the characters in the story continue with the process of self exploration in finding out some confusing truths about them, their lives, and their abilities.
New …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The I in team
Well, I’m still not fully aware of what exactly the Initiative is or what they are trying to accomplish. But, at least in the episode “The I in Team” we now know that they are not going to be on friendly terms with Buffy.
At first, I thought she was …
Destination Truth: Haunted Forest/Alux
Last night was the first time I have taken the time to sit down and watch the series “Destination Truth.” I have to say it, the season premiere I watched “Haunted Forest/Alux” is one that has me wanting to watch it more often.
In this episode, the Destination Truth team …
Judge Joe Brown
In the afternoon there are a number of television shows that peek my interest. I enjoy watching shows that deal with law. There are a number of semi law shows. Judge Joe Brown is one of the more entertaining shows that are on in the afternoon. This …
Criminal Minds Season 1 Episode 15 Unfinished Business
I thought it was a pretty decent episode. I enjoyed it, although I felt it was a little bit slow. And despite the fact that Reid is supposed to have these special mental skill and photographic memory, I thought it was just a little bit too much how he …
Bell Xpress Vu Dual Tuner PVR
I love this device. I waited for Canada to have an equivalent to TIVo and now that we do, I would never go back to normal television.
I love pausing and rewinding, recording my favourite shows and having both televisions hooked up to only one receiver (via UHF remote) is …
Alias Smith and Jones: The Root of It All
There’s added enjoyment to Alias Smith and Jones: The Root of It All and that comes from the main guest star of the episode. Judy Carne, perhaps best known from Laugh-In and being the first wife of Burt Reynolds, appears here as Leslie O’Hara. However, it’s Carne’s …
Top Chef - Show Your Craft
The producers of Top Chef just never disappoint. The second episode of the season and they have me hooked. From time to time on the show in the past, they will have a group of persons separate and apart from the judges judge the chefs. For this episode …
Laramie: The Jailbreakers TV Show
From the third season of Laramie, The Jailbreakers revolves around an ex-con who is blamed for a murder he didn’t commit. The lawman who actually did the murder, which would be considered involuntary manslaughter or less, lies and leads the hunt for Gil Martin (Charles Aidman).
What I don’t …
Full House Season 4
Full House Season 4 is almost when the show tried to “jump the shark”. Granted it was a transitional time for the show as the kids were starting to grow, but things were still a little odd.
Little Michelle was now a toddler, and fully capable of talking. The …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 10
Cowboy Bebop Episode 11 involves the crew of the Bebop landing on Ganymede, Jet’s home planet in order to collect a bounty. Jet goes to visit his ex-girlfriend Alisa, while Spike pursues a bounty on a man named Rhint Celonias.
This episode was really interesting because it didn’t center …
