Stargate SG-1: The Sentinel has SG-1 split as they try and fix a problem that was caused by another team’s visit.
Throughout the episode, Jack is in the ‘city’, appearing in scenes with Henry Gibson, famous from the Laugh-In television series. Gibson does nothing for me here, not that …

The first few times I saw this show, I didn’t really grasp the concept and couldn’t figure out why a police investigative team would have some random guy (who used to be a con artist) on their team. It just seemed like a stretch. Of course, I have been …

Now what I liked about the Celebrity Apprentice was that we knew almost everyone who was competing. There were a few contestants I wasn’t familiar with but the presence of the other celebrities made up for it.
I think the difference between this and the regular Apprentice is that …

This past Saturday, I could not get to sleep for the life of me. Tired and frustrated, I opted to turn on the television and see what was acutally on at that time of the night. To my pleasant surprise, Saturday Night Live was on. I …

From March 2004, NBC aired Whoopi: The Squatters. Whoopi stars comedian Whoopi Goldberg as Mavis Rae, owner of the Hotel Lamont. Guest starring in this episode is the wonderful Celeste Holm. She’s a resident at the Hotel Lamont who is suffering a bit of senility. …

In M*A*S*H: No Laughing Matter, Major Charles Emerson Winchester III sees a chance to finally be transferred back to Tokyo when the colonel who sent him to the 4077th visits the camp. Robert Symonds returns as Colonel Horace Baldwin. The odd thing to me is that Baldwin …

Log 95: Purse Snatcher is the third episode from the third season of Adam-12, NBC’s hit police drama. Adam-12 is one of the shows that I refer to as Webb-TV, meaning it came from the mind of Jack Webb. It has a story to tell and it …

The Andy Griffith Show: The Jinx, from January 1962 which was part of this comedy show’s second season on the air, was a solid half hour of entertainment, though to be honest, it’s not one I really like all that much. I’ve watched it numerous times. I …

Ross and Monica are devastated to find out that their Grandmother is really sick in the hospital and they are called to come to her bed and say their goodbyes. When they do arrive at the hospital, they find out that she has already passed. When they go into …

As one of the earlier episodes of Family Guy, “Peter, Peter, Caviar Eater” is among the more funny ones. It has a decent build up, and while the plot is not as out there as later episodes, its decent writing saves the day.
Lois’ aunt dies, and the family inherits …

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 …

This episode begins with Vala irritating Mitchell instead of Daniel. Seems she has stolen a case file and has found that a Prior has visited a planet that she knows very well. She tells Cam they have to go there and talk the people out of joining …

In Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: Gold Fever, the youngest McFadden brother, Guthrie, gets some time to show his stuff, and it’s good stuff. Young Guthrie is played by River Phoenix, who died way too young of tragic circumstances. Here, though, in 1982, we see the promise …

I have a really difficult time getting into TV shows. I always feel like I’m being incredibly unproductive if I’m just sitting in front of the TV watching mindless entertainment for hour after hour. It really takes a lot for me to get into a show to the point …

Law and Order SVU Season 1 Episode 5- Wanderlust
This was an average episode. What makes it average, is that one part of it was absolutely brilliant, and the other one was absolutely horrible. The writing was the good part of the story. It told to distort …

Ice Road Truckers: Deadly Melt is the second to the last show for the reason, and it was pretty tame going. They did some interesting camera work that focused more on the landscape than the trucks as they cleared the snow and ice from beneath a bridge so …

Homer and Marge go to Bart and Lisa’s school for parent teacher’s meeting. While Lisa’s teacher praises Lisa, the same is not with Bart’s teacher who says that Bart needs to be disciplined before he ruins his life. Marge takes this seriously and tells Homer that it is about …

The Burn Notice Season 2 DVD set is a four disk set containing all the episodes from the second season. Each disk has a nice color photo of one of the show’s four stars — Jeffrey Donovan, Gabrielle Anwar, Bruce Campbel, and Sharon Gless. This makes them …

I have a couple of episodes of Highway Patrol in my personal video collection, but I haven’t seen the series in years. Now one of the cable networks is rerunning it, and it’s a great opportunity to watch this groundbreaking series again. As many of the so-called …

Probably more famed for her work on BBC3, Dawn Porter has tackled numerous subjects in her often light hearted documentaries before.
With this Channel 4 series, Porter tackles topics that are a bit weightier and difficult than her previous exposes. In particular, her investigations into mail order brides and polygamy …

The ninth episode of the second season of the new Mission: Impossible was called Banshee. I loved the reincarnation of this series. With Peter Graves on board once again as Jim Phelps, it had quality. I also loved the original series star Greg Morris had his …

M*A*S*H: Quo Vadis, Captain Chandler is a bit of an off-kilter episode for me. It’s never been one that I enjoyed all that much. Alan Fudge guest stars as Captain Chandler, an injured soldier who believes he’s Christ. Most of what happens stems from this plot …

The final episode of the sixth season, M*A*S*H: Major Topper, is pretty good. What I like about it is how it shows off the power of the mind. Most people just don’t realize how much the human mind can do. It’s capable of far more than …

There seems to be more deaths coming in this TV series and it’s getting more focused. My boyfriend is so at it and I must say that he has somehow made me curious about this TV show definitely. Harper’s Island Episode 8 sees smells of more deaths coming …

This was a very exciting episode, where we and Sam learn much about his childhood. Sam is this man who had an accident in 2008 and woke up in 1973. He has many unresolved issues from his childhood and somehow now in 1973 he manages to find out stuff …

The bad thing about Due South: Call of the Wild: Part 2 is that it separated real Ray Vecchio from Constable Benton Fraser. With Vecchio recovering from being shot, that left Fraser and fake Ray to go after the villain of the piece, and that’s not really what …

I really like this show. It’s not one of my favorite shows but I do watch it whenever I see it on. I usually end up watching a marathon of it. I like the show because it has Tyra in it and I also like the show because it …

For each of the three seasons of DVD releases for Star Trek, a segment of Billy Blackburn’s Treasure Chest Rare Home Movies and Special Memories was done. I think this third season one is my favorite.
The background for this footage is that Billy Blackburn always carried an 8mm …

Spice and Wolf is an anime that I didn’t expect to like half as much as I did. First, a word of caution: if you’re looking for epic battles and testosterone-filled fighters, look elsewhere. Bleach is right over there, or look at Buso Renkin right next to it, and …

This episode was certainly a drastic shift from others that had come before it. While humor would occasionally spring its head in the form of some deadpan quipping or a funny comment from Frohike, we never really saw it manifest itself to this extent. Even more impressive …

In my book, The Twilight Zone: Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? just might be the best of all the episodes from this series. It’s definitely in the top five. There’s no doubt about that.
I absolutely love this program wherein two officers investigate the report of …

We ended up watching a couple Christmas specials last night since nothing else was on and because my daughter was able to stay up a bit because her school was cancelled for a snow day today.
One of the ones we watched was a classic; Charlie Brown Christmas. It’s not …

This isn’t just another CSI copy cat. This is the real thing. Kathy Reichs is the person behind Temperance Brennan, who is a forensic anthropologist for the Jeffersonian Institute. Tempe or Bones, as she is fondly called by everybody, is not your ordinary geek. She’s strong willed, she knows …

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: The Orb Scholar begins with a recap of the Orb, first seen in the pilot episode of this series. Humorously, the magical orb is labeled as a UFO - unearthed foreign object. When last seen, the orb was floating down the …

I do love the concept behind The Twilight Zone: Elegy. What’s neat about the show is that there are so many possibilities about what is happening. We have three astronauts landing on an asteroid where they can’t find anyone to talk to. There are a bunch …

Beast Wars - Master Blaster is one of the season’s most solid episodes. It features a number of entertaining highlights, the most important of which is Megatron once more gaining access to the Ark and removing the spark of his namesake, the Generation One Megatron, and joining it with …

Synopsis: Detectives need to figure out who brutally murdered a man and woman and then later decapitated the female victim? Was it a young man with a high IQ but murderous tendencies or was it someone else close to her?
What I liked about this episode: I love the fact …

Has anyone else noticed that the new Jay Leno show is a lame version of his former show? I am not sure why, because he still manages to get great guests ( Kanye after the MTV awards debacle, Robin Williams and Halle Berry, just to name a few). But …

From February 1964, Susan Oliver guest stars as a siren like female in The Andy Griffith Show: Prisoner of Love. She’s actually brought in by the state police to be held in the Mayberry jail for one night. The music that is used with her character is …

I finally got around to watching the 5th season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer today; starting with the first episode, Buffy versus Dracula.
It wasn’t a bad episode but not quite as good as I expected it to be.
As you can guess by the title, Buffy gets to face the …

If you think you have problems with phobias or fears, you have NOT watched and appreciated the show called: MONK on television. He has xenaphobia, he is afraid of most everything! He is totally obsessive compulsive about everything! He needs to have a personal assistant with him at all …

To be honest, I never watched “The King of Queens” before they started showing syndicated episodes of it in the afternoons on one of local television stations. Since that time, however, my day is not complete unless I see this show. Everybody in the cast is talented …

“At the end of the day, all you have are experiences.”
This quote is from the end of Dead Like Me: Curious George, and it’s the end of this show that is the first time I thought I might end up having some like for the main character of Georgia …

The eighth episode of Checkmate was called Deadly Shadow. Checkmate, Inc. is a detective agency, fairly upscale in nature, run by Don Corey (Anthony George) and Jed Sills (Doug McClure). They’re assisted by a professor, Carl Hyatt, played by Sebastian Cabot, lovingly remembered for his subsequent portrayal …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Village of Guilt, episode eight of the series, was directed by Irwin Allen, who created the series. It begins with a giant octopus surfacing in Norway, which results in a couple of deaths. Following are some of my thoughts …

Well, I will admit, I had some doubts about the Psych episode Bounty Hunters because I really did think it would be a little on the stupid side of things; to the point it wouldn’t be as funny as other episodes. However, overall, I have to admit, this one …

I’m not sure about Family Guy some weeks. Some episodes are very clever and unique. Others, like “Tales of a Third Grade Nothing” lack any real substance to them.
This episode basically has Peter having to repeat the third grade because he is seeking a management position and it is …

Cliff Robertson does a great job in The Twilight Zone: A Hundred Yards over the Rim, a show from season two of this great series. Robertson is a man crossing the prairie with his family. When his son gets a sickness, he leaves the wagon to go …

Starhunter is one of my favorite television shows ever. Why I have no idea, there is no real surface reason to like it. In terms of writing, acting, special effects, etc., etc., it is all sub-par. But there is some special charm about the Starhunter universe …

From 1983, Tales of the Gold Monkey: Ape Boy is a story that you could read about in schoolbooks. In a society of apes, a teenage boy is found living with apes, who raised him. He’s wearing jeans. Wonder where he got those, since he was …
