Early on in The Virginian: The Golden Door, Judge Henry Garth (Lee J. Cobb) gives his daughter “a nerve tonic” which instantly makes her feel better. I have to wonder what a western version of a nerve tonic is. That really has little to do with the …

The first story of the second season of Highway Patrol was called The Search and aired in October 1956. It’s a pretty basic story, I’m afraid. It’s all about a murderer who is trying to avoid capture. He’s a charming sort and manages to get people …

OK, I’ll admit, this was an interesting episode for the most part, but I do have to question exactly why the producers of this show went out of their way to attack the culture of orthodox Jews when the rapist turned out to be a child; not one of …

What I like about Stargate SG-1: Sight Unseen is Jack out and about in Colorado Springs. Okay, it’s Vancouver, but he’s out there in his truck, driving around, getting gas, and shooting at things that aren’t really there. Best part of the show.
Second best part of Stargate …

Star Trek: The Next Generation - “Data’s Day” is a fun episode to watch. Unlike every other episode of the series, this episode’s story is told from Data’s perspective. The story follows Data as he goes about his “typical day” while the character speaks in the background. Data is …

I actually missed this fourth episode when it aired originally, but I’m happy to say that I’ve finally been able to see it. Even though going in, I know who won, there’s still the other groups, and I’m curious to see how my views line up with the …

Desperate Housewives is a show that started with tremendous promise. Marc Cherry’s brainchild had everything that an audience could possibly want, love, sex, hilarious antics, and a good old fashioned murder mystery. Add a collection of a talented veteran actresses to boot and you have yourself a recipe for …

The Company Man episode of Laramie is one of my very favorites of this western series. It is full of angst and drama.

I started watching this show last year once I turned the TV on one day and this show was on. I never thought I would like it because on the promos all I saw was Chef Gordon Ramsay yelling at people, and I thought, “Who would want to watch …

A UFO convention? A transvestite blogger somehow linked to the three-dot symbol? Are you kidding me? I’m beginning to wonder if the writers of this show were severely desperate for ideas here. Alan Park, our transvestite blogger, is the worst part of the entire episode. I don’t know about …

The standout story in Adam-12: Day Watch features George Murdock as the owner of a service station whose been robbed. He’s the prejudiced type with a quick temper. It’s actually an interesting case study of how anger makes a situation worse. It’s Murdock’s own stupidity that …

I thought that this was one of the most fascinating episodes from the popular 1990s television show “The X-Files”. I thought it was fascinating first because of the introduction to the show as well as the plot of the whole episode. The characters themselves were also quite interesting especially …

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve appreciated the values and clean comedy presented in circa 1960’s comedy series, “The Dick Van Dyke Show”. I watched it for years on Nick At Nite as a child, and still enjoy it on DVD today. I want to …

OK I used to hate American Idol. I think this show is just really a way to make someone famous, and have record labels ready to sell their music to the masses. And since the viewers get emotionally close to certain artists they will go out and buy their CD …

“The Once And Future Thing: Time, Warped” is the 13th episode of the first season of Justice League Unlimited and completes the storyline started in “The Once And Future Thing: Weird Western Tales.” The story is somewhat superior to the first part, because it deals with …

The eleventh episode in the series, “Dooku Captured”, takes a bit of a more lighthearted and comedic approach to it unlike the previous two episodes (”Cloak of Darkness” and “Lair of Grevious”) but does manage to remain interesting at the same time.

This is the …
