Columbo: Double Exposure TV Show
I adore Double Exposure, which is a third season entry for our favorite unassuming detective series, Columbo. As always, Peter Falk does a superb job. In fact, I just love how he faces off against his foe in this episode.
The reason I’ve always remembered Double Exposure over …
The Parkers (tv series)
“The Parkers” was one of those television sitcoms that I would virtually ignore back when it was more popular a few years ago. This was because I had made a judgement of what it would be like based on what little I had seen of a few episodes, …
Dancing with the Stars 2009 - Week 1
Dancing with the Stars 2009 - Week 1 was an okay show. The show is getting a reputation now for star injuries, and this season two contestants didn’t even make it to the first show. Both Jewel and Nancy O’Dell had to withdraw for injuries.
Jewel was replaced by …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 23 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 23 has Spike, Jet, Ed and Faye all after the leader of a strange cult after its members start committing suicide.
This was one of the weirdest episodes of the entire anime. It’s visually interesting but I got a little dizzy because the images were …
Stargate: Infinity: Hot Water TV Show
Why is that there is always one traitor on every world to mess things up? I suppose it’s natural, but as a plot device, it’s just way overused. It’s too much of the easy catalyst for why things go wrong. This is what we have again …
Undercover Boss: Chris McKann TV Show
Chris McKann, president of 1-800-Flowers, was the center of the season finale of Undercover Boss. It was interesting to watch for a couple of reasons, one of which was the particular history of this flower company. Chris is the younger brother of the founder and CEO, Jim …

The Simpsons Episode The Good, The Sad and the Drugly
I haven’t watched too many episodes of The Simpsons lately, other than some of the older re-runs that they show at 6 p.m. during the week. But, I did get a chance to watch a newer episode last night (though still in re-run); The Good, The Sad and the …

Diagnosis Murder: The New Healers TV Show
This is one of those spoof like shows. Diagnosis Murder: The New Healers centers on a television show being shot at Community General Hospital where Dr. Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke) works. It’s bringing in some $10,000 a day, which makes Norman Briggs, the hospital administrator very …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Angie Dickinson TV Show
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast roasted the Woman of the Hour, Angie Dickinson, in this show taped in front of an audience in Las Vegas. Dickinson had one of the better dais groupings of the show. She looked beautiful, of course. She truly has been a …
The Steve Wilkos Show
I love to watch television talk shows at times and one of them is the Steve Wilkos show. Every since watching him on the Jerry show I have been a fan of his. Since he has started his own show I have been watching it all the time. It …
The Office: The Merger
After so long with Jim in a different branch the show is finally reunited. Bringing everyone from the Stamford branches is great. We get to see what a first day with Michal Scott would be like, as well as watching everyone trying to explain Michal. The best line was …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Penelope TV Show
From December 1962, the 13th show of the sixth season, Have Gun - Will Travel: Penelope was an average episode in my opinion.
This particular program opened in San Francisco with Col. Oliver Lacey as played by Lawrence Dobkin studying Paladin who is engaged in a solo game of chess.
Lacey …

Headline Saturday is a show put on by WRAL in Raleigh NC. The show, hosted by one of the television stations anchors David Crabtree usually deals with hot political topics that are going on in North Carolina, specifically in Wake County. Mr. Crabtree along with Melanie Sill the executive …
Seven days Season 3 Episode 8 Tracker
I must admit that I have never heard more bad accents in any show than in this one. Everybody always speaks English even though they are Russians, Chinese or of any other nationality, even when two members of another nationality which isn’t American talk among them they use English, …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One: Pickles
Spongebob thinks he has lost his touch, as a big critic comes in and tells him that his crabby patties don’t taste well, and they are missing their pickles. He returns a week later after Spongebob took a vacation from work because he thinks he cannot work their anymore …
NBC’s Chuck television show
I’m going to go ahead and review a television show that had recently come to and end; NBC’s “Chuck.” But I’m going to look at it through more of a personal aspect—¦ this show is very easy to relate to, which is what makes it such a pleasure …
M*A*S*H: House Arrest
The wonderful character actress Mary Wickes guest stars in M*A*S*H: House Arrest from season three. Wickes is just amazing. She has a long history of comedic performances that are delightful, from The Trouble with Angels to Sister Act. I always know when I see her name …
Bones: Knight on the Grid
OK, I have found it very difficult to find time to watch the show Bones. But, after last night’s episode ‘The Knight on the Grid,’ I am now pledging to make time for this series.
Most episodes have Bones and Booth looking for a killer and finding him/her by the …
Laramie: Bare Knuckles
Laramie: Bare Knuckles focuses a bit more on Hoagy Carmichael and his character of Jonesy, the family friend who is essentially the cook and housekeeper, as well as doing ranch hand chores. Jonesy was mild mannered and laid back, but he had a lot of gumption and was …
T-2 TV
I am using t-2 for my tv for last 3 motnhs. This is Slovenian TV provider, to be clear. So the signal comes from the ADSL line or the optical cable, if you have on. And i do. There is a lot of programs with this TV. The number …
Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger
What I like about Adam-12: Log 16: A Child in Danger is the cute little banter that occurs throughout the episode about Jim Reed’s baby boy. Little Jimmy has a fever, and his godfather, Pete Malloy, is overly worried. He keeps trying to get Reed to get …
Centennial: The Shepherds
Centennial: The Shepherds, while still high quality, is probably one of the two I’m not that fond of when compared to the others. Again, I want to stress that the quality is top drawer, that the acting is superb, and the story taken from the James Michener mini-series …
Eureka Seven episode 44
As the shadows over cast the land, the only way to save the girl he loves is to injure her and force her ever heavy burdens on to another girl, in essence commend another girl to embrace the sins of her forerunner. This is the broodingly dark Eureka Seven …
Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever
As far as Monk episodes go, Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever was actually one of the worse ones I’ve seen.
While the side-plot of Natalie getting a job as television’s lotto girl was somewhat interesting, the reality was the show itself was a bit cruddy because there was really no …
Highlander the Series - 107 - Mountain Men
„Mountain Men” is a seventh episode of the Highlander the Series first season.
Tessa takes advantage of the fact that Duncan is in New York City on business to go on a field trip to their ’special’ place and photograph ancient paintings on the rocks. While on her own, she …
The Twilight Zone: From Agnes - with Love TV Show
I can’t help but like The Twilight Zone: From Agnes - with Love because it features the adorable Wally Cox in it. Cox plays a computer programmer named James Elwood who takes over working with a computer named Agnes.
Now there is something important to recognize when you watch …
The Choir: Unsung Town: Ep 2 TV Show
The best thing about The Choir: Unsung Town is that the second episode actually had music, really good music, and that’s why it was fun to watch. Gareth Malone sang and was good, and individuals in this choir in the making were also awesome. I just thought …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 1, Episode 10: Jet
After camping out, Sokka decides that the group should hoof it for awhile. He explains that he believes the fire nation is able to find them because Appa is too noticeable when they’re airborne. The group teases him about it, despite the fact that it’s a pretty …
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That
The Virginian: Say Goodbye to All That just did nothing for me. It’s one of the reasons why I didn’t watch this series originally. It left me cold. I really didn’t get all the nuances. Maybe I blinked and missed something important and didn’t realize …
Stargate SG-1: Pretense
The best line to come out of Stargate SG-1: Pretense, a season three episode, may be the one uttered by Jack O’Neill when he looks back at the new Stargate built by the Tollan. While Daniel was just amazed by the technology, that the Tollan were able to …
The Twilight Zone: Come Wander with Me TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Come Wander with Me feels like it’s this science fiction series answer to the folk singing of Peter, Paul, and Mary. It guest stars Gary Crosby as a folk singer who ends up in an obscure place in the backwoods. He hears the hum …
Broadway on PBS Series
PBS aired a short term series, “Stage on Screen” that featured live performances of plays that were filmed and broadcasted on American public broadcasting. Unfortunately the series did not last, but before it came to an end “The Man Who Came to Dinner” was aired in 2000. “The Man …
Channel V2
Channel V is a station shown on Pay Television. They play the latest music all day and all night. There are all sorts of different countdowns to the show. The only bad thing I would complain probably has to play the same songs over and over again during the …
John Doe: Psychic Connection TV show
The gore sneaks in again during John Doe: Psychic Connection. The show isn’t as bloody as many of its contemporaries, but when they do decide to show it, they tend to linger, and that’s what they do here when John Doe (Dominic Purcell) jerks away from his violent …
CHiPs: Supercycle
Quite honestly, I’ve never been a big fan of CHiPs: Supercycle. I’m not sure why, but the idea of this supercycle bothers me. Maybe it’s too Evil Kneivel for me.
One of the reasons the show doesn’t hit me with goodness is that there is too much time …
The Office: The Convention
The plot of this season The Office has been moving quickly; stretching away from the basic formula, which succeeded in the seasons before but had began to get old. It is still the same show, but with many new elements.
In The Convention we see little of Jim’s new office …
The Biggest Loser
I love The Biggest Loser. My mom and I watch it every Tuesday together. I find it motivational. It does get frustrating, however, if you’re trying to lose weight with the show because they lose so much because all they do is exercise every day. I have learned, however, …
BET’s Hell Date
Hell Date from BET is another reality show that tries to pair couples on a date. Here is the situation…have you ever been on a date with someone that in the beginning you thought that all was going well, you meshed and you actually think that you have a …
NCIS Los Angeles Season 3 Episode 1
I waited a long time for the new season of NCIS Los Angeles. The last season was intentionally cut in mid story. Unexpectedly and mysteriously, Hetty resigns from her post and goes to Romania to close some unfinished business. Of course, what she did is so absurd that …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: A Switch in Time
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: A Switch in Time has a couple of decent moments in it, but mostly, it lacks cohesion and entertainment values.
In the opening scenes, for example, the big star is Fanny the chimp. Fanny’s in several episodes, and in this one, she gets to cause …
The X-Files Improbable Episode
I first saw this episode of the popular 1990s television series “The X-Files” one night on the cable television channel Sci-Fi. At first I didn’t get to watch all of it since I had only gotten to see the last part of it, however I thought it looked interesting …
Mythbusters: Duct Tape Hour 2 TV Show
Duct Tape Hour 2 aka: a Buster’s Cut episode of Mythbusters was terrific to watch. I still love the first hour, which came from curiosity of which MacGyver tricks might actually have worked, was a load of fun. They built a boat and lifted up a car …
The Winds of War: A Novel for Television featurette
The Winds of War: A Novel for Television featurette was a very interesting show to watch. I’m not a big fan of The Winds of War mini-series, but I recognize its popularity and certainly, I did watch it when it had its mammoth run on television years ago. …
Judge Judy the TV show
Judge Judy is a pretty good show and there are quite a few things that I really like about it. The first thing would be Judge Judy herself, she is very entertaining and I love her attitude because she is tough and she doesn’t take no crap from anybody …
Highway Patrol: Hostage Copter TV Show
From 1957, Highway Patrol: Hostage Copter was the 38th show of the second season of this police drama. This show was one I enjoyed quite a bit and one of the main reasons for that was guest star Barbara Eden, who played Kathy O’Shea. Early on in …
