Radar is like a ball in a pinball machine in the beginning of M*A*S*H: The Sniper when he and Henry Blake (McLean Stevenson) are stuck in the shower when a sniper opens fire on the 4077th unit. Gary Burghoff, who plays Radar, did a great job making the …
Big Brother All-Stars TV Show
I have recently started getting back into watching the television show Big Brother. The show is currently on season seven. For this season they have brought back players from the past six seasons to form an all-stars group. In the show a group of people live together in a …
Doctor Who: Season 1, Episode 11: Boom Town
I wasn’t really looking forward to seeing the Slitheen again as their first appearance didn’t really blow me away. Surprisingly enough, this episode was much improved. We learn that one of the Slitheen from “Aliens of London” and “World War Three” managed to teleport to safety at …
That Girl: Ugh Wilderness
I’m not sure at what point Marlo Thomas decided that this fourth season would be the last of That Girl, but I’ve noticed all season long that there was an additional warmth between Ann Marie and Donald Hollinger. It’s hard to put into words, but it’s a comfort …

The Simpson’s TV Episode: Sweet and Sour Marge
One of our local stations aired a re-run of the Simpsons that I have seen a few times but have never grown tired of; Sweet and Sour Marge.
This one starts out with Homer trying to set a World’s Record. When he can’t do it on his own, he convinces …
The Million Pound Drop - TV SHow - Channel 4
The Million Pound Drop, hosted by Davina McCall on Channel 4. With Big Brother ending there was clearly a need to utilise her presenting ability elsewhere as she is quite a draw and to be fair, I think someone has had a master stroke with this idea.
The quiz shows …
House: One Day; One Room
House is made to work in the clinic because he doesn’t have any patients and this time, unlike the others he isn’t able to get out of it. He just doesn’t care about people who have eaten magnets or have an STD because they are stupid.
Then as he is …
Wife Swap
I like watching Wife Swap because it gives me a look into other people’s homes! I admit it, I’m nosy! And Wife Swap allows me to peek into the living rooms of other Americans, PLUS I get to watch what happens when they let a total stranger …
The Andy Griffith Show: Divorce, Mountain Style TV Show
From season four in March 1964, The Andy Griffith Show: Divorce, Mountain Style is another story that centers around the Darling family, and that means that, for me, it is an okay outing, but not one that I am particularly fond of watching. The Darlings are quite popular …
The People’s Court With Judge Marilyn Milian
Daily I look forward to sitting down comfortably and watching an episode of The People’s Court. The people’s court is presided over by Judge Marilyn Milian, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to do it. She has a little bit of an attitude complimented by a sassy, yet …
MacGyver: Collision Course
MacGyver becomes a GT Cup race driver when the Phoenix Foundation develops a new environmental engine in this fourth season entry of MacGyver called Collision Course.
One thing I have to mention first that is bugging me in the last two episodes is Richard Dean Anderson’s hair. It’s just …
New Girl ,’A Chill Day in’, TV show
As I wrote my review of the episode Road Trip I really feel the need to write my review of episode ‘A chill day in’. These two episodes are a long way from the episodes we got used to watching in these last two seasons which are sometimes good but …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Totem

CSI Season 8, Episode 6
This was a really excellent episodes of CSI because it featured a crossover with their sister show Without A Trace. Jack Malone from that show comes to Las Vegas to investigate a case that he thinks is related to a disappearance he investigated years ago. A child went missing …
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 …
Doctor Who: Season 5, Episode 8: The Hungry Earth
The Doctor and crew arrive in 2020, only to come across some mysterious phenomena. There are patches of blue grass seen around the area and the Earth itself seems to be pulling people in. No, it’s not the work of Gaia, but the work of a species …
Supernatural TV series
Supernatural is without a doubt the best thing to come along in paranormal horror in a long time. Having begun in 2005, it is still airing in 2011! That is true staying power.
Supernatural has become one of those show that I really can’t stand to miss. It has …
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 16
Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 16 is a good episode, not to be missed. I watched it with a very curious interest and there are lots of character developments in this episode. I love the dinner scene whereby Orson and Bree and Tom and Lynette have dinner together …

Avatar: The Last Airbender Episode 17 begins with Aang hearing rumors of Airbenders being seen in the Northern Air Temple, they go there only to discover that there aren’t any Airbenders but people who have settled in the temple and use flying machines to get around.
This episode was very …
Everybody Loves Raymond
This show is, in my opinion, not as hilarious as many people seem to think. It is no longer airing new episodes, but you can often catch Everybody Loves Raymond reruns, and the dvds are available for purchase, so it’s easy to watch this show even though it ended …
The Twilight Zone: The Last Flight TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The Last Flight is an intriguing time travel type of episode which aired in the first season of this premium science fiction series from the mind of Rod Serling. Serling narrates the story, as always.
The Last Flight hones in on a World War I British …
TV Series: CSI
I began watching the tv series “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” in it’s first season. I loved the show immediately, and have become an avid follower of the series.
My favorite thing about the series is the creativity. The cases all have such different circumstances, the writers tell the story beautifully. …
Project Runway: Lights, Camera, Sew
Last night’s episode of Project Runway was actually kind of cool. The designers were asked to make movie costumes based on a particular genre they were assigned at random. Adding to the difficulty of the challenge was the designers were only given one day to complete their work instead …
The Office: Local Ad
This season of The Office has been alternating between hour-long episodes and half hour episodes and again I find that the half hour episodes are far better. Local Ad is one of those shorter episodes, but it still feels a little like filler.
Perhaps the need for every episode of …
Gilligan’s Island - Court Martial TV Show
This episode kind of burns me up. The Navy, where the Skipper chooses to involve himself in for most of his life, blames the Skipper for the Minnow accident. So in this episode the Skipper is mainly the depressed one instead of Gilligan. He gets so depressed he wants to …
Secret Millionaire TV show
Last December 2008, I saw this reality Television show on Fox. It is entitled Secret Millionaire. It was just very timely then. The show can inspire people to share more during the holidays, no matter how bad the economy may be. Every episode I watch, my heart goes for our …
South Park: Fishsticks
You really gotta love when the guys who write South Park want to make fun of a celebrity. In this episode, entitled “Fishsticks”, is just one long joke on rapper Kanye West. The episodes revolves around a wordplay joke created by Jimmy and Cartman, and Kanye West losing his …
Grey’s Anatomy Season 5 Finale Now or Never
I became a fan of Grey’s Anatomy just recently and once I started watching I couldn’t stop anymore. In fact, I finished watching Season 4 and 5 in just two days.

Justice League Unlimited: Ultimatum
I’m not certain that punching a lava man is a good idea. First, what’s to say it would be effective? Does anyone know what a lava man is made of? Secondly, it seems that since they are glowing red and spit lava on people that it could be dangerous, …

The Soup - E! Entertainment Television

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Escape from Venice TV Show
From the second year of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Escape from Venice was the fifth show to air. This science fiction program came from the mind of Irwin Allen, and it’s always been a favorite of mine. In this show, Captain Crane gets his …
Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics - Closing Ceremonies
The closing ceremonies for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics were a mixed bag of hits and misses.
First of all, I just loved the spoof the Canadians did about the cauldron faux pas from the opening ceremonies. Bringing back the athlete who didn’t get to light the torch was …
CSI Season 10 Episode 1
I stopped watching CSI for a long time, although I had always been an avid fan. It was just that I had not much chance to watch TV with all the writing I was doing. So I guess I felt lucky to have been able to catch this …
Tom Green
Tom Green is a very funny guy! He has always made me laugh with his show. What I like about him is that he doesn’t care what people think about him or what he says. It’s a lot of fun to see him on TV and movies. I think his …

Dexter TV series
I have not been addicted to any series ever, until I have seen Dexter. Dexter is about a forensic blood spatter expert who is hero by day, and a serial killer by night. The best part is, he only kills the ones who seem to get away through the …
Opry Live: Country Comes Home: An Opry Celebration TV Show

Wagon Train: The Link Cheney Story
Charles Drake is the main guest star in Wagon Train: The Link Cheney Story, a seventh season entry of this great western television series. Drake is an affable sort to watch. He pulls off bad guys and good guys with ease. Here, he’s a master poker …
The Twilight Zone: Perchance to Dream TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Perchance to Dream has never been a favorite episode. It’s from the first season and it has a solid cast, but the story fails to connect with my soul It’s all about a man who walks into a psychiatrist’s office and then tells him that …
The Bachelor Rome (tv)
The Bachelor Rome is on television currently, and once again, I am sucked into watching the program. I usually try to avoid watching shows like this like the plague because once you get immersed in the storyline, and somewhat emotionally bonded with the reality show stars, it is …

This episode takes up where “Fallen” ended. Jonas is a prisoner of Anubis, Daniel is crawling around the ship, trying to find Jonas and free him before he becomes visible to the sensors again, Jack and Sam have destroyed the weapon and are arriving home and Teal’c is …
M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth
I have to admit I really get a kick out of M*A*S*H: An Eye for a Tooth from season seven. It’s a show that focuses on humor via some practical jokes. Unlike some other episodes which have had prankster storylines that were over-the-job and almost boring, this …
‘Say Yes to the Dress’ on TLC
Since I am getting married in a year I am addicted to watching any kind of wedding show on TV. Lately I love ‘Say Yes to the Dress’, even though it appears to be on reruns. I like seeing it from the point of view of the sales people …
