The third season of the great police drama Adam-12 began in September 1970 with Log 174: Loan Sharks. The first thing that’s really noticeable is the new introduction. This is the one that ends with the police car rolling into a lot right towards the viewer and …

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 …

This was another great episode of the TV show Castle themed for Halloween. It wasn’t scary, it was more like a murder mystery. It was more snappy and witty than usual and I was laughing for the most part.
In this episode the police department encounters the world of the …

The Street Hawk crime fighting series continues with episode 7, Chinatown Memories. My problem is that I’ve never liked TV shows that center around the Chinese version of the mob. I don’t like shows about any mob, to be honest. They are cliche and boring to …

I have a strange and most likely unhealthy fascination with this show. The scenery is definitely part of it (Hawaii is beautiful, and an interesting locale for this sort of show). But it is Dog and his family that make the show so unusual and unique.
Dog is …

For the second week of the current season of Dancing with the Stars, the stars danced either the quick step or the jive. Note, I don’t always agree with the judges, especially these three who I feel now pick favorites early and comment and score appropriately. Following …

This is the most decadent show on the air. The parents who allow their children to have these extravagant birthday parties is simply ridiculous. I can understand that turning 16 is a magical thing, because you are that much closer to adulthood. Sixteen is the age …

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 …

I’ve decided to combine these two “Adam-12″ episodes. My favorite of the two is “Log 61″ which evokes heart and compassion from Officer’s Reed and Malloy when they get called to residence for a possible break in.
The call comes from two young children, whose parents are out. …

I love the show What Not to Wear. At first, I thought the stylists, Clinton Kelly and Stacy London were mean and too harsh. They really tell the person what they look like and what’s wrong with what they look like. They use creative language to …

Have Gun - Will Travel: The Gospel Singer from season five opens with Hey Boy (Kam Tong) advising Richard Boone’s Paladin of a potential job. I’ve noticed that Hey Boy tends to bring Paladin ideas for his jobs all the time now. I guess Paladin doesn’t like …

The third episode of A&E’s series, The Beast, is called Nadia, and once again, I’m intrigued.

I have two criticisms of this show. The first is with the show’s creator, Sean Diddy Combs. The second is with the performers. The show itself is not much different in that the focus is to create a band to go out and …

Sometimes the best episodes on a comedy show are those about a subject that really isn’t wrong but has embarassing implications. The That 70s Show episode “Parents Find Out” is one of those episodes.
This episode happens a short time after Eric and Donna start having sex and, while in …

Here Come the Brides: A Christmas Place is a huge favorite show of mine. It has such heart that it fills my soul. It’s really well done. However, there is a continuity error. The second show of the series was all about the brides demanding …

From 1963, The Twilight Zone: The Parallel is an intriguing hour of entertainment. It’s a show I enjoy quite a bit. The story dabbles in the concept of parallel universes or alternate dimensions or alternate realities. There are fine lines that separate the differences of these, …

In M*A*S*H: A Full Rich Day, Hawkeye Pierce sends another letter home to his dad, only this time it’s not written, but spoken on a tape recorder. I love the opening explanation of how Hawkeye ended up with the recorder. It’s pretty funny.
One oddity about this show …

Just when I thought television couldn’t get any worse, I saw this show. First of all, I cannot believe that New York was even allowed to have her own reality show. But I guess the more despicable a person is, the more America wants to see her/him. …

CHiPs: Rally ‘Round the Bank has one element I’ve actually remembered for years, going back to when the episode first aired on February 3, 1979. In the episode, Frank Poncherello’s mother shows up unexpectedly for a visit. This creates some light humor at the beginning as Ponch …

The Best of the Danny Kaye Show DVD is a really great opportunity to see just a hint of how wonderful Danny Kaye was as a performer. Kaye had a series that lasted for a few seasons in the mid 1960’s. I remember reading some years ago …

One of the things that worked against Legend is that it was on the new UPN network. They didn’t have the stamina to let the series grow and really find its strength. Still, what we do have are a collection of tales in which actors Richard Dean …
