Highway Patrol: Wounded TV Show
Wounded, from season two of Highway Patrol, is actually an episode I enjoyed very much. In fact, it’s one of the best episodes in my opinion, and it’s certainly in the top ten for me. The reason for that is the premise of the show and also …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 12 Macpherson
This was actually the first episode where I managed to resolve the case before the two secret agents Myka and Pete. In two previous episodes they tried to stop Macpherson, Artie’s ex partner from stealing artefacts but they didn’t manage to arrest him.
In this episode we learn why Macperson …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Best of Enemies
What can I say about Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Best of Enemies? Not much that is good, that’s for sure. This adventure series continues to be sub-par. Star Bruce Boxleitner didn’t have enough sparkle to keep the show dazzling along, and the co-stars were almost …
Vh1’s ‘Undatable’ tv series (parts 1, 2 and 3)
I first saw the VH1 show “Undatable” advertising about two or three weeks ago, and as silly as the show sounds, I actually made plans to watch all three parts since the idea of the show did sound interesting to me. Nevertheless, after watching VH1 shows like their “100 …
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 18 - The Climax
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Episode 18 - The Climax continues the soap opera elements that made the show what it was. Part of the most difficult elements to watch is the obsession that David Marquette (Michael Brandon) has for Maggie Farrell (Maud Adams). It’s positively spooky, even now …
The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown
The Virginian: Strangers at Sundown opens with senseless cruelty towards animals so I’m very leery of this episode from the start. Normally, I change the channel at this point, but I think it might have just been a passing plot device. Whatever the story involves, there’s a …
Project Runway Season Five Episode 5
Season Five Episode 5
Welcome to the Jungle
Brooke Shields Guest Judge
In this episode, Heidi tells the designers their next challenge is to create a look for a high powered woman and to meet Tim in the work room for more details.
When the designers head back to the work room …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Zero Hour TV Show
This futuristic story that aired originally in January 1992 was called The Ray Bradbury Theater: Zero Hour. Overall, I thought it was a story that began with a lot of potential but then took a wrong turn and ended up a bit sour, at least for me. …
Glee TV show
Glee is a new TV show on it’s first season on Fox. There are really only a handful of shows on Fox that I enjoy and I try to avoid this network as much as possible because they have a tendency to cancel shows that I like, I’m hoping …
Adam-12: Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend
For me, there isn’t anything terribly exciting about this episode of Adam-12 entitled Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend. The segment I key in on more than the others is one with Norma Connolly as Eva Foster. I met the late Ms. Connolly a few times, and …
Digital Max, Cox Cable Character
I guess this is my day to vent about television commercials I find detestable.
Chief among the television ads that make me personally queasy are the series of commercials featuring Digital Max, the digital character with the blue sweater and obnoxious wisecracks. This character is supposed to influence live …
Sesame Street (children’s program)
The television show “Sesame Street” has been on the air for years. I remember watching it when I was younger, and now that I run a day car and have kids here all the time, they love to watch it as well. Sesame Street has changed a …
The Next Iron Chef: Resourcefulness TV Show
I had to chuckle very early on The Next Iron Chef: Resourcefulness because after host Alton Brown informs them about the challenge and prepares to give them the ‘go’, the chefs all hunch down, like getting ready to run a marathon. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve seen that …
The Andy Griffith Show Citizen’s Arrest
When it comes to classic TV, one of the best is “The Andy Griffith Show”, or TAGS as frequent internet watchers refer to it. When it comes to best episodes of TAGS, few would argue that “Citizen’s Arrest” is right up there at the top.
This episode has classic …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Joe Garagiola TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast celebrated one time baseball catcher Joe Garagiola as the Man of the Hour. Joe was a colorful player who really did make a name for himself in the entertainment business. He did a lot of game shows and variety appearances. He …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Manhunt TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Manhunt is another solid outing for the first season of this wonderful family television series. It’s a bit of a face off between this small town of Mayberry, its sheriff and his deputy, and the bigger state police of North Carolina and the …
The Simpsons Tree House of Horror II Season 3 Episode 7
In this episode the Simpsons (Homer, Lisa and Bart) eat too many sweets from trick or treating and each have nightmares.

Spongebob Squarepants Season One - F.U.N.
This is just another great episode on season one of Spongebob Squarepants. In this episode, Plankton is trying to be friends with Spongebob just so that he can get the Krabby Patty recipe from him. Spongebob truly thinks that Plankton wants to be friends and Spongbob gets …
MacGyver: GX-1
MacGyver: GX-1 once again brings back Elyssa Davalos as Nikki Carpenter. As I recall, there was some thought about making her a regular, both as a competent agent for the Phoenix Foundation and as a potential love interest for MacGyver. As I also recall, it just didn’t …
Rock of Love Bus (VH1)
I never saw any of these Rock of Love with Bret Michaels episodes from the previous seasons. But it is my understanding that this will be the final Rock of Love. My question is, why wouldn’t it be the last one? If he’s planning on …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Dark Ages
One of the interesting things about the earlier episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the fact you really never get to learn too much about the librarian Giles and his past.
The episode The Dark Ages changes that.
This was actually a very good episode both because we learn Giles …
Ally McBeal
Ally McBeal was a fun show about a girl who followed her boyfriend to law school, was dumped for another girl and now has a job at the same law firm the guy she was dumped by and the girl she was dumped for who is now his wife …
Jaws: The Inside Story TV Show
In 2010, the History Channel presented Jaws: The Inside Story, which is a great look at the making of Jaws, the 1975 movie hit. There are a wealth of new interviews and ones from the past that work together to present a really unique view of this film …
Due South: An Eye for An Eye
In Due South: An Eye for An Eye, elderly people are being murdered and it’s up to Fraser and Vecchio to find out why and whodunit. There are a couple of nice twists to this plot that keeps the story fresh. Overall, though, it’s not really one …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Puppet Show
OK, wooden puppets are a bit creepy and after the movie Child’s Play, any doll that can talk makes me a bit nervous. So, I liked the concept behind the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “The Puppet Show.”
The school puts on a talent show and Buffy and her friends …
Trigun Episode 23 anime
Trigun Episode 23 begins with Vash in the town of Kansas in Southern Cornelia. Vash finds the monument stained with blood with Knives’ name. The Gung-Ho Gun Chapel confronts Wolfwood and makes him a Gung-Ho Gun and orders him to kill Vash.

Zoobilee Zoo
Even though I was born in the late nineteen eighties, the television show Zoobilee Zoo would still air on a local television channel when I was little in the early nineties. Thus, I would watch it when I was still in kindergarten or possibly when I was a little …
Starz
Starz is one of the premium movies that you can get. I used to have all of the movie channels and then I did away with them. When I used to have them all of them were really good. Now none of them are as good as they used …
Smallville: Idol
This episode was a fluff piece. The plot was wafer thin and there wasn’t much in the way of characterization. I didn’t have high hopes for the episode, mostly because they brought in the Wonder twins.
You know, speaking of that, I’m getting kind of tired …
George Lopez
I’ve been making an effort to watch the television show George Lopez at night when there’s nothing else good on TV. While the show has some funny moments in it, it’s not the best comedy I’ve seen on television.
Maybe I have to be latino to understand a lot of …
Thriller: The Closed Cabinet TV Show
Thriller: The Closed Cabinet was a good hour of viewing. I haven’t seen these Thriller episodes until recently, and now I’ve seen several, most of which have been nice to view. Hopefully, I’ll be able to see more of them. Boris Karloff has a knack for …
Sea Hunt: Mercy Ship TV Show
From 1961, Sea Hunt: Mercy Ship had some interesting intrigue to it. Though the stories often include fascinating sea creatures, this episode takes a turn that puts deep sea diving expert, Mike Nelson, in the middle of a war.
Playing Nelson is Lloyd Bridges. He’s very good …
Trollz
My daughter wanted to watch something different last night and, after some searching on-line, I came across the show Trollz.
I remember the Trollz dolls when I was still in school. I didn’t buy them but I remember them being very popular among the girls in my class. And, I’m …
MacGyver: Runners
MacGyver: Runners, from season four, features Gerald Anthony as a pimp named Snakeskin. The Italian Anthony made a name for himself on the soap opera One Life to Live as the outrageous Marco Dane. Anthony died a few years ago, but he’s still remembered. A …
Models of the Runway
Well, I survived the season premiere of Project Runway and noticed there was a different show on right after, Models of the Runway. Since our infant daughter was wide awake still, i took the time to watch it too.
This was something a bit different. Basically, it is a half …
The Simpsons Season 4 Episode 3
Homer decides not to go to church on Sunday. He tells her he wants to enjoy one day at home, after working hard in the office. So Marge and the kids go to church in the blistering cold. They are freezing while sitting in the church. Whereas Homer is …
Sea Hunt: Diplomatic Pouch TV Show
The 38th episode of Sea Hunt’s third season was another one of these political intrigue shows that I really don’t like very much. I so prefer the almost non-existent ocean life shows or even the episodes focused on technological advances over these small fabricated country tales. The …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Cow Thief TV Show
From year three in October 1962, The Andy Griffith Show: The Cow Thief has Sheriff Andy Taylor (Andy Griffith) and his deputy, Barney Fife (Don Knotts), trying to solve, of all things, the theft of cows. Things are complicated, however, when Mayor Stoner (Parley Baer) calls in the …
Highway Patrol: Double Cross TV Show
Toward the end of its second season, Highway Patrol presented an episode entitled Double Cross. It begins with a robbery and an old fashioned double cross that results in one of the robbers being murdered by the other. It’s not long before Chief Dan Mathews (Broderick Crawford) …
The Andy Griffith Show: Up in Barney’s Room TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Up in Barney’s Room is a terrific edition from this masterful comedy series. It focuses on Deputy Barney Fife, as played by Don Knotts. Now there is room for the continuity of the show to be questioned.
One of the things that has been …
Judicial Indiscretion (TV Movie)
This movie was made for the Lifetime TV Channel and was first shown in 2007. It stars acclaimed actress Anne Archer as a judge recently up for nomination to the Supreme Court. I have to admit that my primary interest in watching this movie was for her male co-star, …

24 Hour Restaurant Battle
Although this show has been on the Food Network for less than a month now, it has quickly become one of my most favorite ones to watch. This is a television reality series in which two teams compete in a challenge to open up and successful run the …
Fireball XL5: Drama at Space City
I definitely have a few thoughts related to Fireball XL5: Drama at Space City. This episode has Steve and Venus going off on vacation, leaving Zoonie to stay with Jonathan Zero, the son of Commander Zero. Meanwhile, Professor Matt Matic takes the relaxation pills that Venus prescribed …
How I Met Your Mother: Intervention
“Intervention” was a pretty funny episode of the CBS sit-com How I Met Your Mother. It actually addressed some of the issues a lot of fan are probably thinking that Ted is really rushing into things with Stella, considering she lives in New Jersey and has a young …
Spongebob Squarepants - The Algae’s Always Greener
My daughters and I love to watch Spongebob almost everyday. He is so cute and comical. I like to purchase the boxed sets on DVD versus watching him on television because then you can pick the episodes you want and do not have to worry about the …
Stargate SG-1: Family Ties
Stargate SG-1: Family Ties is not really my style. It opens with Sam and Vala returning from a shopping trip, the two all decked out and drawing attention as they walk down the corridors of the SGC. I guess they wanted to show these two are friends. …
