Cowboy Bebop episode 16
Nothing happens the way we plan it to, for if it did, it would be an extension of blasphemy as there would be no human element. As it is said, To error is to be Human, To Forgive divine. In the case of Jet Black, sometimes you will see …
Quantum Leap: season one “The Right Hand of God” television show
Quantum Leap is a science fiction series that aired in the 1980s to early 1990s. Each story stands alone, there is very little arc. The premise of the series is that a scientific experiment has propelled the soul/person of a scientist into the bodies of other people …
John Adams: Independence TV Show
Independence was episode 2 or 7 for the HBO mini-series, John Adams, which aired in March 2008. It has a grizzly beginning and that’s the type of thing I’m not fond of. Things heat up in Congress, though, was John Adams now participates in. This is …
Psych: Shawn Versus the Red Phantom
Well, at least after watching the previous episode of Psych, which I didn’t feel was as good as others that I have seen from the series, I was able to watch one that was somewhat better; Shawn versus the Red Phantom.
When I saw the title, I wasn’t really sure …

South Park
I have always enjoyed the cartoon called South Park. This show is just funny. I really like all the characters. I like the funny music in the show as well as the sound effects. I think the story lines in south park are really dumb. But I also think that …
The Twilight Zone: Eye of the Beholder TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Eye of the Beholder is one of the best episodes of this science fiction series. It’s a poignant narration about mankind and our perceptions. It’s a wonderfully strong story, one told in the shadows for a reason. The story is a futuristic one. …
Friends Season Nine - The one with the male nanny
This season nine episode is by far my favorite Friends episode of all time. I think I have seen this particular episode over one hundred times, and I still laugh every time I see it. Shortly after Emma is born Rachel has to go back to work so they …
Ghost Hunters TV Episode: Touched By Evil
You know, I used to like watching Ghost Hunters. I even used to plan my evenings around each new episode. But, after watching yet another disappointing one last night, I am starting to wonder if maybe I should change my allegiance to another program.
I still like TAPS and its …
Sea Hunt: Sunken Car TV Show
Sea Hunt: Sunken Car begins with Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) doing a survey job where a pipe would be placed later. I like seeing how they link these little opening bits with what ultimately becomes the main focus of the half hour episodes. The survey really has …
Faerie Tale Theater: Goldilocks and the Three Bears
My daughter ended up watching another episode of the 1980s show Faerie Tale Theater this past weekend; Goldilocks and the Three Bears. And, much like other episodes of the show, this one proved to be pretty entertaining for pretty much everyone in our family.
They kept the same basic plot …
The Simpsons Show
I remember when the Simpsons used to be one of the freshest and funniest shows on television. I would watch it every week and just laugh and laugh because it was funny.
And then it got older, and stopped getting quite as fresh and funny. And now I …

Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King
Stargate SG-1: It’s Good to be King is the show that I consider to be the last real team show of SG-1. It’s truly the last time we get to see SG-1 off-world, together, including Jack. It’s a regular-type mission that ends well and that has all …
Beast Wars - Tangled Web
Beast Wars - Tangled Web features some great character conflict and action, too. In this episode, Blackarachnia, Tarantulas and Quickstrike are sent on a mission by Megatron. That in itself is somewhat perplexing because at this point Megatron should realize that neither Blackarachnia nor Tarantulas can be trusted considering …
The Simpsons Season 3 Episode 6

How to Get Away with Murder, TV show
I’m not a huge fan of Shonda Rhimes. For everyone that doesn’t know her, she is the creator of shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice and Scandal, she likes to mix her characters and give a lot of drama to their lives. I’ve seen a lot of her shows and …
Discovery channel
Discovery channel is my favorite TV channel. It has got a blend of information and entertainment. I like almost all the programs that r aired on it. My favorites are globe trekker, medical detectors, and many more. Their reception is excellent and hosts are creative and adorable. Most of …
The Virginian: Two Men Named Laredo TV Show
The Virginian: Two Men Named Laredo isn’t too bad to watch. It actually was unusual in that the 90-minute western dealt with mental illness. At the center of that was Fabian, who showed some acting chops in his portrayal of Eddie aka: Josh Laredo. He joins …
M*A*S*H: A War for All Seasons
M*A*S*H: A War for All Seasons goes through the year1951 told in one thirty-minute show, which further points out how crazy it is that this show lasted almost five times the length of the actual war, which went from 1950-1953. This would mean that the first eight seasons …
Art Attack
I am a workingwomen and I get very less time to watch the TV at home. But still I have some favourite programmes of mine. Such as the cartoon shows and some movies, I also love to watch some serials, which are telecasted especially on weekends. …
Due South: Say Amen
Due South: Say Amen is a story that has been done before, in western genres and all other types of dramas. That said, it’s still fairly well done and is entertaining.
The one thing that really makes no sense, though, concerns the character of Inspector Meg Thatcher. We …
Adam-12: The Tip
For me, one of the things that stands out about Adam-12: The Tip is that Chuck Courtney has an uncredited part as bad guy, Russell Simms. I’m not sure why he didn’t make the end theme credits, but for some reason, Adam-12 had a habit of not crediting …
The Virginian: The Final Hour
The Virginian: The Final Hour was the last episode of the first season and personally, I think it was a poor choice of a season ender. Though the story was poignant, it was terribly downbeat. When a season ends, I want to feel excited about a show …
Spongebob Squarepants Season Two - Gary Takes A Bath
This is my number two favorite Spongebob episode. In this show, Spongebob looks at the clock and realizes that it is time for Gary to take his bath. Gary hates to take a bath and will do anything to get out of taking one. Spongebob tries …
Star Trek: Voyager - Parallax
“Parallax” is an episode that I enjoyed quite a lot, not so much for the science fiction aspect of the story which I actually found pretty dull and loaded with a lot of talk that didn’t quite make much sense to me since it was all talk that centered …
American Idol 2009 - The Top 13
American Idol kicked off their top 13, and 13 was a first for the hit reality series. This year is the first time the top 12 grew by one to be 13, though after Anoop, the singer responsible for the addition had judge Simon Cowell saying that after …
Make Me a Super Model
Ever since the success of America’s Next Top Model, several shows have gone out of their way of duplicating the show while trying to add a twist that makes it different.
Other than having male models and letting America decide who is voted off, there really isn’t much difference between …
Glee - Theatricality
And so Glee’s descent into the real world continues.
With its revolving plot lines and hit or miss ‘themes’. the once magical “Glee” has become a what was once cool, TV show. Following in the footsteps of shows like Lost, Glee seems to be a victim of its own …
Celebrity Apprentice - 3/22/09
I’ve asked it before and I’ll ask it again. What the heck is Dennis Rodman doing on Celebrity Apprentice? If I didn’t know before that the man is a self-absorbed idiot, I do now. His confrontation with Clint Black was childish; except it was also dangerous. …
That 70s Show: It’s a Wonderful Life
You know, it’s been years since I’ve seen the actual movie It’s a Wonderful Life. But, I haven’t had any desire to watch it again because of all the shows that feel the need to do their own take on that film.
I ended up watching another one yesterday afternoon …
Gary Unmarried show
Gary Unmarried is the show that Professor Payne left Ghost Whisper to star in. His new name is Gary, and I can’t remember the last name. I just know that he’s just as cute in jeans and a tee-shirt as he was in a suit and tie.
Now if the …
Anselm Gets His Chance by P.G. Wodehouse

Aldterton plays the title role of Reverend Anselm Mulliner in “Anselm Gets His Chance” while his real life wife, the ever-cute-as-a-bug, Pauline …
CSI Season 5 Episode 22- Weeping Willows
This is a great example of why the show is so amazing. That was fantastic episode and I enjoyed it very much. It really kept me on the edge and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen. And because the story was so personal, you could …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 4: Planet of the Ood
The Doctor and Donna arrive on an alien planet in the 42nd Century. I think this is the first time that the relaunch has ever truly gone off world before. We’ve been to New Earth and to various spacecraft, but never to a bona fide alien world …
Khana Kahzana
Khana khazana is another interesting programme, which is very good. Actually in Hindi language khana means food and the khazana means the property or money. It is the programme in which the very famous chef, who is sanjeev kapoor, is teaching many kinds of interesting and tasty …
Trinity Blood episode 23
After Father Abel Nightroad’s death, things take an very depressing turn. If you do not like depressing episodes, this might not be one for you. But, if you like action and comedy mixing it up, then you have just struck gold on your hunt. Trinity Blood: Episode twenty-three: “Crown …
PBS KIDS Channel
TV is a all time favourite for everyone. But watching today’s shows with family is not a good idea. There are lot of shows that are not kid friendly and have a negative impact on kids. Not every channel has kids programmes and there is nothing much for toddlers to …
Fox News Channel
Fox News Channel is an interesting phenomenon to watch, if anything. Famous for their slogan “Fair and Balanced,” they are anything but. Bias resonates through almost every word iterated by one of the Channel’s many columnists. The half-hour news reports are fairly standard fare, but the …
The Office: The Coup
Dwight from The Office is one of my favorite characters ever. Usually when a character is annoying on a television show the actually annoy me, but Dwight is different. Perhaps it’s the reactions of everyone else or the fact that the things he does are more socially inept that …
Yes Dear
OK, the television show Yes Dear has been on for some time now and I’ve had the opportunity to see re-runs several times previously. However, my first experience watching the show was completely by accident. Now I regret not watching it more.
This has to be one of the funnier …
Sea Hunt: Decoy TV Show
Sea Hunt: Decoy was interesting because of how the story evolved. This story revolves around a deep sea diving expert, Mike Nelson, who is portrayed by Lloyd Bridges. He had to be in good shape since he’s in swim trunks and bare chested so much of the …
Diagnosis Murder: Many Happy Returns TV Show
Diagnosis Murder: Many Happy Returns is the first episode of season two for this medical sleuthing series which stars the wonderful Dick Van Dyke as Dr. Mark Sloan. Following are a few observations about this showing.
–One of the first things I noticed was Victoria Rowell’s new hair style and …
Dancing With the Stars: S11, Wk 5 Performance TV Show
The performance show for the 11th season of Dancing With the Stars, Week 5, was again given too much time. The network is milking this show, and if they aren’t careful, they’ll overdo it and viewers will go away. We’re smart, and we’ll tire of being toyed …
The Jeffersons (TV Show) - Once a Friend (Episode)
“Once a Friend” is an episode of “The Jeffersons” and in the episode, George visits a hotel room where he believes an old friend from his Navy days is staying. His friend was always pulling pranks and kidding around during the war, so when the door opens and instead …
