That Girl: Stag Party
The wedding between Ann and Don is getting closer with the advent of Don’s stag party. We actually never get to see the wedding, and the shows after this just mention the upcoming nuptials. As always, Marlo Thomas and Ted Bessell are just superb in their portrayals.
In …
CSI Season 2 Episode 4 Bully for You
It was a very well written and wonderful episode. It was unexpected and the answers were not obvious and I have also learned some interesting facts by watching it.
It tells the story of two crimes. In the first one, the CSI team is called to investigate the death of …
Law & Order SVU: Hardwired
I got to watch bits and pieces of last night’s Law & Order SVU episode Hardwired. For the most part, it was OK. But, it really wasn’t anything that stood out when compared to the other episodes I’ve seen of the show.
Basically, it had the same plot as others, …
Dark Blue (The TV Series)
Dark Blue is a serious series on the lives of deep undercover police officers, so deep that even their fellow cops do not know about it. I think the title is so appropriate considering that the series deals with the dark side of life. I can feel the tension …
Teach - Tony Danza: Tested TV Show
Teach - Tony Danza: Tested was the second show in this documentary series in which one time boxer turned actor and dancer Tony Danza is teaching English to a class of 10th grade students at Northeast High School in Philadelphia.
I remember hearing Danza talk about this before he actually …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: No Escape from Death TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: No Escape from Death, which aired in February 1967, was the 22nd outing for the third year that this science fiction drama appeared on TV. Richard Basehart starred as Admiral Harriman Nelson along with David Hedison as Captain Lee Crane. …
Tom and Jerry: - ep: Salt Water Tabby
I don’t think Tom and jerry would ever get old and with so many episodes depicting different backgrounds yet keeping the classic chase. They did wonderfully. One of these episodes which features a different background from the usual house or back yard is called Salt Water Tabby.
The Salt Water …
Naruto Episode 28 Subbed
After easily beating off the disguised rain ninja Sasuke decides to give the group a password, so that if they are separated they will know whether each other is the real one or another impostor. The password is ridiculously long and sure enough, within moments they are attacked and …
Sea Hunt: Time Fuse TV Show
Star Trek’s Leonard Nimoy is back for more underwater action in Sea Hunt: Time Fuse, a third season episode which aired back in July 1960. Nimoy appeared in several shows from this adventure series. They must have loved his work since they brought him back so often, …
Adam-12: The Ferret
Adam-12: The Ferret includes one of those terribly sad stories where ignorance results in tragedy. In this case, a couple’s child is born dead after eating clay based on the recommendation of man who claims to be a reverend, but really is a believer in some very bad …
Monk Season 3
The third season of Monk was a transitional period, and that’s why I had to rate it so low. Sharona was one of my favorite characters and in this season she ended up leaving the show. I heard that it was a contract dispute and some money problems, but …
Getting On (BBC4)
Comediennes Jo Brand, and the lesser known Jo Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine bring us a satirical look at the day to day workings of a modern NHS hospital.
It’s a strange show to first get into, using mainly ad-libbed dialogue and some camera work you’d expect from the likes …
Family Guy TV Episode: Family Goy
As I mentioned in another review, I had an opportunity to watch some re-runs on TV last night. The first re-run was for the Simpsons but the other one was a re-run of Family Guy that I had not seen before yesterday called Family Goy.
This episode meant well, but …
Fireball XL5: The Sun Temple
Fireball XL5: The Sun Temple aired in December 1962 for the first time, bringing us another adventure for Colonel Steve Zodiac and his XL5 crew.
One of the fun things about this episode is that Zoonie gets to go on XL5 and Venus tries to teach him more words. …
Gotham (2014 television series)
I grew up watching various Batman animated series, and I was always fascinated with the city of Gotham, Bruce Wayne’s home. I was always curious about how one place produced so many criminally insane people and I wanted to know so much more about the other characters such as …
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 …
The Closer: About Face
While relaxing tonight and waiting for another show to come on, I was flipping through the ‘on demand’ options and came across The Closer with Kyra Sedgwick. I’ve heard about this show and was moderately intrigued by the concept, but I’ve never actually watched an episode. I …
Frosty’s Winter Wonderland
Frosty’s Winter Wonderland is the sequel to the ever popular kids’ classic, Frosty the Snowman. Andy Griffith is the host, animated to tell the story. It’s a very good likeness and Griffith is a terrific singer, which I think some people forget. He sings here and …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Marionettes, Inc. TV Show
From May 1985, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Marionettes, Inc. was an interesting piece of entertainment. Author Ray Bradbury does the opening introduction, but it’s not actually introductions like Rod Serling did with The Twilight Zone or Boris Karloff did with The Veil. Instead, his opening introduction is …
InuYasha Episode 1 (Anime)
inuYasha Episode 1 is about a half demon named InuYasha who wants the sacred jewels to become a full demon. A lady named Kikyo pins InuYasha to a tree and seals him there with her magic. Thousands of years later, a young girl named Kagome falls down …
Super girl, Survivors, season 2, episode 4, TV Show
I have never thought I would write a review on a TV show Supergirl because it used to be a show I was watching just because I like superhero TV shows and movies but it never made me feel strong about it or about any issues that it was dealing …
The Virginian: Image of an Outlaw TV Show
The Virginian: Image of an Outlaw aired during season seven in October 1968. Don Stroud guest starred as Rafe Judson who happens to look just like a notorious outlaw named Wally McCullough. The question throughout the show is whether or not Judson is McCullough or if he …
Sudden Link Cable Service
If you are looking for a good cable service and this is the only one available in your area then you will have to let go of the dream of reliable service. If you have the option of going with another provider for your cable company then I suggest that …
CSI: las vegas
This is my favorite show of all time. I like all of the actors and actresses in it. They always make the show interesting and it always keeps my attention. I think one of the reasons I like the show is because it is so different from all of …
Bones TV Episode: The Woman in the Sand
There wasn’t much on TV this past weekend and my wife and I were too tired out to watch an actual movie so we decided to watch re-runs of Bones instead; starting with one that we had never seen before, The Woman in the Sand.
This episode, overall, proved to …
The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries: The Rising of the Moon
From 2000, Diana Rigg returns in The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries: The Rising of the Moon. I’ve always associated Rigg with the classic Emma Peel character, but she’s so different here that I surprised myself that I never really look at her and think ‘Emma’, so that’s a compliment …
No Ordinary Family: No Ordinary Vigilante TV Show
No Ordinary Family: No Ordinary Vigilante followed the Powell family, now possessive of unusual powers, has they continue to adjust to their situation. This is a show that is a little bit science fiction, a part comedy, and a tad of drama as well. For me, the …
The Michael Jackson Memorial - July 7, 2009
The world stopped for two hours and fifteen minutes on Tuesday, July 7 to mourn the singing legend of Michael Jackson. The services started a bit late and had a bit of a false start, perhaps, when Smokey Robinson greeted people several minutes before the Jackson family had …
Family Guy TV Show
This is a show I thought I would never like. For a long time I wouldn’t even give it a chance. I don’t even think I realized that it wasn’t a cartoon for kids. I honestly thought that it was so I figured I wouldn’t like it. But since …
Dukes of Hazzard
Remember that old show Dukes of Hazard. I loved that show so much. Its been my favorite show since I was 5 years old. It just has something to the TV show that has a great value to me. The old car, the actors or just the fact that …
The Twilight Zone: He’s Alive TV Show
From January 1963, viewers were presented with The Twilight Zone: He’s Alive, and frankly, I don’t even know what to say about it. I don’t like it, and I never have. It’s unpleasant to watch, and while there is a message, I just don’t care to wait …
Word World
This is a children’s show on PBS/KCET. The concept is interesting, and unique. In this world, words equal objects. What I mean is that if one puts the letters B A R N together, the word actually becomes a barn, with the letters still clearly visible. …
Pokemon (TV Show) - Here Comes the Squirtle Squad (Episode)
“Here Comes the Squirtle Squad” is an episode of the “Pokemon” series and the third episode in a row the deals with an abandoned Pokemon or abandoned Pokemon. After watching “Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village” and “Charmander the Stray,” I admit that the theme of abandonment was starting to …
Outsourced: The Measure of a Manmeet TV Show
It was a fluke that I watched this second episode of Outsourced called The Measure of a Manmeet. I am pretty sure that fluke won’t happen again because this show is just third class and even offensive. It’s ridiculously stereotypical and instead of focusing on a concept …
Lois & Clark The New Adventures of Superman
Lois & Clark starred Teri Hatcher and Dean Caine as Lois Lane and Clark Kent / Superman respectively, for the first time putting the focus of a Superman adaptation not on action, but instead on the romantic trials and tribulations of the titular characters.
Lois Lane is smitten with …
The Simpsons
Has there ever been a better show than “The Simpsons”? I think not, at least in my generation. I think back to when I was just growing up and the show first aired. It was an instant hit and it has not stopped providing laughs. …
CSI New York Season 2 Episode 21- All Access
CSI New York Season 2 Episode 21- All Access
A well written Episode of a great show. In addition to the usual crime solving and mystery story, this one also features Kid Rock as himself. The show starts with his performance and that really pumps the energy right from …
The King of Queens
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 …
The Jerry Springer Show
The Jerry Springer Show is one type of a reality show about every day people and their lives. They seem to cater to the lowest scum of our society which are normally the trailer park trash. I guess they have a large following because they have been on the …
The Twilight Zone: Uncle Simon TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Uncle Simon is a show that I can’t stand watching. It just feels like it doesn’t matter, like it’s a show that makes no sense. It’s just out there. There isn’t a message really; it’s just a piece of drama that has a …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Education of Ernest T. Bass TV Show
From October 1964, Howard Morris returns in The Andy Griffith Show: The Education of Ernest T. Bass. It is the continuing adventures of this unique and energetic mountain man. When last scene, Ernest T. was taught how to behave in society circles, debuting his skills at a …

Stargate Atlantis: The Seed
As folks who know me are aware, I’m not a big fan of Stargate Atlantis for many reasons, not the least of which is that I hold it responsible for the deterioration of quality on Stargate SG-1. Now that I’ve said that up front, here are both the …
Greek show
The television show Greek airs on ABC family. I am a big fan of this television series as I feel it brings something different to the table - something most dramas geared towards young people don’t usually provide.
It’s the fact that the show is not in your face, …
Bones: The Man in the Outhouse
I haven’t seen the show Bones since Zack turned out to be a killer and no longer appears on the series. So, last night, while watching the newest episode “The Man in the Outhouse” I had to do some catching up.
Overall, this wasn’t a bad episode; though I have …
The Virginian: The Money Cage
The Money Cage is the 23rd episode from the first season of the 90-minute color western series, The Virginian. Lee J. Cobb is at the center of this episode in his role of Judge Henry Garth. Oddly, though, I really don’t feel like he was that big …
Supernatural 4.17 It’s a Terrible Life
I’ve maintained for some time that Supernatural is one of the best shows on TV. It’s up there with Venture Bros. for me. This episode was a fine example for that. It was funny, had great character moments as well as being creepy.
It was a …
CHiPs: Ride the Whirlwind
In CHiPs: Ride the Whirlwind, which is technically the last episode of season two, we get another new concept, that of riding trail bikes to try and capture the bad guys who using off road areas for their crimes. The program is initiated by Jon Baker (Larry Wilcox). …
