Well, we finally had a House episode with plenty of drama that didn’t involve a possible relationship between House and Cuddy; about time.
“Last Resort” was actually a pretty good episode for this series. You have a desperate patient pulling a gun and taking people hostage until House can diagnose …

I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here is finally over with and the king of the jungle has been crowned. Some of these episodes were interesting and others were quite boring. One thing that I was happy about was that Janice Dickinson was ousted by …

Some episodes of Law & Order SVU really do get you thinking. This was the case on tonight’s episode “Retro.”
There are times I wonder how some doctors manage to get and keep their medical degrees. I can understand having a certain point of view when it comes to controversial …

This episode was a glorious exercise in self parody. Sokka finds out that the fire nation is putting on a play based on their adventures and insists that they go see it.
The whole episode is a comedic retelling of key episodes with each characters personalities being blown up …

America’s Next Top Model is a show where young women compete to be America’s Next Top Model. The complete challenges relating to modeling every week and then face a judging panel which kicks one of them out.
I really enjoy this show and it’s for many reasons.
Firstly I didn’t …

The Twilight Zone returns to its half hour format after a questionable fourth season of hour long episodes with a show called In Praise of Pip. In the past, I haven’t been much of a fan of this episode, but the last time I watched it, I enjoyed …

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: A Ring for Hannah has another disaster looming for the McFadden family. It begins with some warm emotion and good feeling when Tom Barrett (Charles Aidman) tells some of the brothers about how he opened a mine with Adam McFadden Sr. Adam …

Normally, when I watch an episode of Bones, I’m impressed with it. Last night was one of the exceptions.
Quite honestly, for an episode that received so much hype from Fox, you would think it would have been better.
First, let�s start off with the kiss that was supposed to be …

The Prometheus finally goes on her shakedown cruise in Stargate SG-1: Memento. There are actually elements of this season six episode that I like, notably John Novak as Colonel William Ronson, the commander of the Prometheus. He and Jack clash in the opening scenes, and it’s pretty …

Stargate SG-1: Prototype is, on the surface, a fairly decent show for the ninth season of this series. It has drama and surprise. My problem is more with characterization and the direction it takes one character.
First things first, in Stargate SG-1: Prototype, the team discovers what turns …

One of the television series that I had begun watching very recently was “Breaking Bad”. While I had heard about it a few times, I had never really considered checking it out until one of my family members who has the same taste in television series like me managed …

The first thing I learned about I’ma Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here is that Spenser Pratt and Heidi Pratt are big jokes, and I feel sorry for their fans. I realize The Hills is a huge reality program, but these two are jerks; they’re worse than …

I’m afraid that The Fall Guy: The Silent Partner just doesn’t do it for me. In fact, it turned me off the first time I saw it, back in April 1982. Aside from a boring script, I have never been able to stomach Mickey Gilley, not as …

Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada star in CHiPs: Highway Robbery as Officers Jon Baker and Frank ‘Ponch’ Poncherello. In this episode from season one, we meet for the very first time Officer Arthur Grossman. Played by Paul Linke, for the rest of the serious, this somewhat plump …

This was a different type of outing for the celebrity roast. This issue of The Dean Martin Show roasted Dean Martin himself. Taped in Las Vegas, it had a tremendous dais, one of the biggest and best of the entire roast history. Everyone had to love …

From the third season of Night Gallery, You Can Come Up Now, Mrs. Millikan was the main story shown. It was followed by a very short piece called Smile, Please.
You Can Come Up Now, Mrs. Millikan featured Ozzie Nelson as the eccentric inventor, Henry Millikan. Nelson’s wife, …

Last night’s episode of Bones, “Mayhem on a Cross” was, for lack of a better word, disappointing.
Normally, the idea of finding real human remains as part of a stage prop for a heavy metal band would be kind of cool. But, somehow, I feel the show kind of ruined …

Trigun Episode 5 begins with a group of thugs attacking a bar in Inepril City where Vash the Stampede is eating. He gets out of the situation only to have the entire town come after him in hopes of getting the $$60,000,000,00.00 reward for his capture. Meryl …

I was a little apprehensive about how interesting a show about marijuana could be. Let the record show that this program is definitely NOT for children. The storyline is quite interesting actually: a widwo makes money to support her family (two boys) by selling marijuana in her …

This episode focuses on the triad. Orpheus discovers that the outrider, the same man who stole his wife, is able to travel between worlds and resolves to attempt to do the same.

After losing Cheryl’s prescription for a much needed dermatological remedy; Larry is …

As I predicted with last week’s Models of the Runway episode, the show is starting to get a bit on the predictable side. Once a designer is eliminated, it is pretty much a given his model will be too since the designers always seem to stick with their models; …

Since I am British and since up until this election campaign we had never before had an American style live TV debate, I was extremely interested to see how this one would play out. ITV won the battle to stage the first of what will be three debates, and …

I really have one major thing to say about The Virginian: Vengeance Is the Spur. I like the Alias Smith and Jones remake better. Seriously, it’s the same show with minor changes. I actually remember back in the seventies reading about how if a show seemed …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - Booby Trap is an episode that is quite good. What I particularly like about this episode is the music. It is exceptionally good in achieving a sense of wonder and awe in scenes that warrant it, while in other scenes, projecting tension and …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Brother’s Keeper, the 33rd show from season 4 of this western program, was written by Jay Simms. I don’t often mention the writers, but I liked the way he constructed this episode. It was dramatic and somewhat whimsical at the same time. …

Jennifer Hudson: Christmas was this American Idol alum’s first TV special. I liked it, somewhat, but was also disappointed. Hudson has one dynamo voice. It’s full of power, but I felt like she tried to jazz everything up too much, or to put that whole black …

Don Knotts once again gets to have some great moments in this fourth season episode of the comedy classic, The Andy Griffith Show. In Barney’s Sidecar, which was shown on TV initially in January 1964, Knotts’ Deputy Barney Fife character gets all riled up about the speeders on …

Super Mario World - “King Scoopa Koopa” is an episode that I find offers a good amount of humor and action, although I felt its “message” was not really necessary. The message that I am referring to is eating too much greasy fast food and what it can do …

Following the aftermath of a friendship breakdown between Winn and Kara from “Childish Things” episode, it was noticeable with only two appearances from Jeremy Jordan as Winn here. I have to admit, I did search the background people whenever the shot was panning out of Cat’s office because Winn’s desk …

It’s been two years since I first seen the first episode of 90210 and since then, I became addicted to the series. I was not able to watch the first 90210 series which was way way back, that was like a few years ago. I was not able to …

Undercover Boss Australia featured the top man at the Veloia company. This was the 2nd show of the first season for the down under edition and it features Peter Murray, Director of Operations for this waste management and environmental services company.
One thing I noticed in the premier and …

The Defenders: Las Vegas v. Reid is the second show of this new law series that is as much comedy as it is drama. For example, in the opening tease, the first bit has the series leads, Jim Belushi and Jerry O’Connell, standing below the big, bold billboard …

Ariel is perhaps the best episode of Firefly, and that is saying a lot. Joss Whedon’s characterization is in top form during this episode. He’s been hinting since the pilot that the only thing that Jayne is really loyal to is money. This episode brings that …

If House were a medical drama I wouldn’t be interested in watching it, and if it were a typical soap opera type show I wouldn’t care either. I have never been interested in formulaic television. House has a formula in some shows, but the formula isn’t the show it …

M*A*S*H: Yankee Doodle Doctor features Ed Flanders, best known for the medical drama St. Elsewhere, as a film director for the Army who is making a documentary about the MASH units under the command of General Clayton (Herb Voland). Of course, it’s a very glossed over review that …

I have been an avid fan of Game of Thrones and now that the season is almost over, I am here to let you guys know how I thought about Episode 9 of Season 2’s Game of Thrones.
For all of you who still live in a cave and …

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 really loved this action show that starred Keifer Sutherland who played the role of Jack Bauer. He is a member of the counter terrorism unit in Los Angeles. I have been watching this TV series ever since it started playing on air. The show is action packed and …

One of the fun things about Stargate SG-1: Covenant is that it guest stars Charles Shaughnessy as Alec Colson, a wealthy businessman who is a believer in the public knowing the truth, and while he may not fully know the truth, he knows it’s out there. I love …

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 …

This is my all-time favorite TV shows. I am waiting impatiently for September 17, 2009 for the announced premiere date of Season 5. Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) works side by side with Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) in solving FBI crimes where the remains are bones. This is based …

I have always loved the Treehouse of horror episodes of Simpsons, even if some of them are a little beyond my liking. There are always three stories to watch and hope that one of them is funny. The whole beginning is with Professor Frink warning people about the episode, …

Once again, I’m watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer and have to suffer through another episode “Fear, Itself” that doesn’t even spend any time discussing vampires.
This is the typical Buffy Halloween episode, where Halloween is supposed to be a quiet time and something strange happens to put the gang in …
