MacGyver: Nightmares
MacGyver: Nightmares is another good episode that is a little more close to home than most of Mac’s missions. This time, the villains inject our hero with a hallucinogenic drug that will kill him within six hours unless he turns over crucial information to them, after which they’ll …
That 70s Show: It’s a Wonderful Life
You know, it’s been years since I’ve seen the actual movie It’s a Wonderful Life. But, I haven’t had any desire to watch it again because of all the shows that feel the need to do their own take on that film.
I ended up watching another one yesterday afternoon …
Halt and Catch Fire (historical drama television series)
The only reason I even knew Halt and Catch Fire even existed was when I saw it advertising one day on the cable television channel AMC. However, I only became interested in seeing it for myself when I became aware that the actor Lee Pace was playing a major role. …

Law and Order Special Victims Unit “Slaves” Episode
I can’t say that this was one of the best Law and Order SVU Episodes I had watched, but I still liked it and learned quite a bit from it like I have learned from a lot of the other episodes. I am not sure if the episode “Slaves” …

Laramie: The Fugitives TV show
From February 1963, Laramie: The Fugitives was an episode from the show’s fourth and final season. This series is my all time favorite and it really should have gone on longer. Ratings were good, so it’s confusing as to why it was cancelled.
The show opens with Slim …
Laramie: The Stranger TV Show
I really enjoy the opening of Laramie: The Stranger , a fourth year episode of this superb western series that stars John Smith as Slim Sherman and, my favorite, Robert Fuller as Jess Harper. The two are partners and co-owners of the Sherman Ranch and Relay Station in …
The Beast: Tilt
In The Beast: Tilt, we finally get some answers about a piece of Charles Barker’s past, and it’s about time. I can take being teased only for so long. Before that happens, though, we’re treated to poker, Texas Hold ‘Em to be precise. It seems a …
Project Runway: Race to the Finish TV Show
Project Runway: Race to the Finish had a challenge that involved L’oreal makeup, specifically eye shadow duos. The challenge was attached to a word like ‘bright’ or ‘velvet’ and it was to be a high fashion runway look.
As often happens so it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone, …
Street Hawk: Dog Eat Dog
Street Hawk: Dog Eat Dog was the fifth episode of the series about Jesse Mach, ex-street cop who now rides a desk while secretly working for the government and fighting crime on his suped-up all terrain motorcycle. Good looking Rex Smith stars as Mach, with average joe Joe …

Gilligan’s Island - Our Vines Have Tender Apes TV Show
In this episode Denny Miller guest stars as Tongo the Ape Man. Denny Miller and all his glory, no wonder I love the old Tarzan episodes so much I watched when I was a kid. He is so buffed up he even lifts Maryann and Ginger both at the …
Thriller: The Weird Tailor TV Show
I hadn’t seen any of the Thriller episodes until this year, and I’ve been surprised at the fact that overall I’ve enjoyed them. However, like Dead Legacy which I had just watched, The Weird Tailor is another show that focuses on the occult. This series likes devil …

Back at SGC, Jack and Sam are discussing wormholes. She is trying to explain the concept but Jack is not understanding, as usual. …
Fairly Odd Parents: Power Mad
Well, at least the second episode in the Fairly Oddparents series isn’t too bad. This one, entitled “Power Mad” lets us meet Timmy’s best friends, Chester and AJ in a way that is kind of interesting.
Since he has fairies who can grant him just about everything, Timmy keeps wishing …

Sea Hunt: Sacred Pool TV Show
Sea Hunt is a show that has a lot of both hits and misses for me. In the case of Sacred Pool, the 17th program of the third season to air, it’s a bit of a miss. After all, this show is an underwater adventure series. …
Bones: Fire in the Ice
Wow, two new episodes of Bones in a row and both aren’t half bad.
While not as good as the first one, which involved a murder at a circus, the episode “Fire in the Ice” still managed to be interesting.
You have a fireman who played hockey against Booth who is …
Sea Hunt: P.T. Boat TV Show
The 34th episode of Sea Hunt’s 4th season on TV was called P.T. Boat and aired in August 1961. The show starred Lloyd Bridges as deep sea diving expert Mike Nelson with guest stars Kelton Garwood as Kendrick Calway and Lisabeth Hush as Linda Calway. Also appearing …
Psych: Lassie did a bad thing
While I’m not as big of a fan as the show “Psych” as I used to be, mostly because I really find it hard to believe everyone is still falling for the fake psychic routine, it does still manage to have the occassional good episode from time to time. …
Unsolved Mysteries
I like to watch the tv show “Unsolved Mysteries” I think this show was one of the first actual “reality shows” although they use reenactments.
I just recently realized the show was back on Spike TV channel. With a new host Dennis Farina. I think Robert Stack …
M*A*S*H: War Co-Respondent
In the past, Mike Farrell, who plays B.J. Hunnicutt, has written some episodes and he’s directed one or two, but I believe M*A*S*H: War Co-Respondent is the first one that he both wrote and direct. It centers around guest star Susan St. James, who appears as Aggie O’Shea, …
Highway Patrol: Lookout TV Show
Broderick Crawford is considered such a legend among TV cops. It’s understandable because in this series, Highway Patrol, he plays such a strong type. He barks out commands in rapid fire speak. He amazes me, in fact. He’s a pretty fast talker, and you have …
Chuck
Chuck has to be my favorite show to hit television in the 2007/2008 season. I am the kind of person who watches a lot of Television so I think I have a pretty good idea of what goes over well with America’s audiences.
Chuck premiered on NBC in 2007 …
M*A*S*H: Death Takes a Holiday
M*A*S*H: Death Takes a Holiday has a few different twists as the 4077th celebrates another Christmas. By now, they’ve actually celebrated more Christmas seasons than there actually were in the actual Korean conflict.
The most dramatic story was focused on B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell), who has a wounded patient. …
Adam-12: The Adoption
The fun part of Adam-12: The Adoption has nothing to do with the crime stories, but with a wager made between Pete and Jim. Jim wins the bet, so Pete takes the Reeds out for dinner. Jim was ready for it, too, not having eaten anything else. …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: The color of revenge!
This episode is unique in a lot of ways. A lot of the episodes have Batman team up with a different DC superhero. This one has him team up with Robin. Also, the cold opens usually act as their own mini-episode. While that’s the …
A Scandal in Bohemia
I am reviewing A Scandal in Bohemia, a Sherlock Holmes adventure from the boxed set Adventure of Sherlock Holmes, produced in 1983 by Granada Television. This series stared Jeremy Brett as Sherlock Holmes, and David Burke as Dr. John Watson. In this episode, Holmes is employed by …

Ice Road Truckers - The Polar Bear Returns TV Show
For some odd reason, it’s really intriguing to watch truckers risking their lives as they haul gear over an ice road. That’s what we’ve seen for three plus seasons now on Ice Road Truckers.
This second episode of the fourth year of Ice Road Truckers had some sections that …

The Veil: The Doctors TV Show
One thing I really like about this anthology series called The Veil is the authenticity I feel from it. I think that comes from it being a product of Hal Roach. The sets are very detailed and even remarkable. Even the costumes seem to fit the …

Hawaii Five-0: Pilot TV Show
Hawaii Five-0’s pilot episode from September 2010 is designed to introduce us to the new team. This is not a replica of the Jack Lord series; it’s a re-think. It’s very important to go into this series with an open mind. If you are determined to …
Sleepy Hollow TV show, Season 1 Recall
When I read about a new supernatural procedural show through the writers mailinglist, my initial thought was, it was probably something along the vein of the TV show “Dresden” but broader in scope since Dresden was a wizard interacting with the police department. I thought maybe a private investigator with …
Simpsons: Little Orphan Millie
I hadn’t seen the Simpsons episode “Little Orphan Millie” before tonight and have to say it was pretty good.
This one focuses on Millhouse more than other episodes. His parents, who went through a bitter divorce in earlier seasons, get back together and re-marry. But, on their honeymoon, they fall …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Englishman
There’s always something humorous about seeing the proverbial duck out of a water, someone thrown into something that isn’t their element, and as the title here — Have Gun - Will Travel: The Englishman — notes, this story from season one is about an Englishmen who comes to the …
CSI Season 5 Episode 18 Spark of Life
It was a very nice episode, although I feel it could have been better. There were some interesting twists of events, but for the most part of it I was a bit bored. It is not that the events of the episode did not matter, it was because there …
Time Warner Cable Service
This place is so frustrating to work with. I go in on Thursday to inquire about getting service. The guy at the desk states that I can have it installed on Friday. I let him know that would be great I get off work at 4 …
The Andy Griffith Show: Andy and Opie, Housekeepers TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Andy and Opie, Housekeepers is another comical outing that is highly entertaining. This is what television comedy should be. It’s suitable for the entire family and it’s full of genuine laughs.
–This is the first show that includes actress Hope Summers who becomes a …
Stargate SG-1: Absolute Power
Stargate SG-1: Absolute Power is an excellent show, though not a personal favorite. It’s another one of the stories that deals with Abydos remnants and references to Oma DeSala, whom I strongly detest. So, while it’s good, it’s not a favorite.
That said, Michael Shanks gets to utilize those …
Pushing Daisies
First off, I just have to express my sincere sadness in knowing that this show has been cancelled in the middle of its second season.
This is a show unlike any other. Not only is it a feast for the eyes with his amazing color palette full of rich …
It’s Me or the Dog Animal Planet show
Truth be known, if my wife and I could have found anything better on television, we probably would never have watched the Animal Planet show “It’s Me or the Dog.”
After watching it, I have to say I’m not sure if it’s a show I will be watching again.
The concept …
