Law & Order SVU: Annihilated
OK, the SVU episode “Annihilated” had to be one of the most twisted, sick and sad episodes I’ve seen. Seriously, how can someone do something like that to their family?
The case starts out with a woman being murdered and a search for her fiancé, who is reportedly in the …

Well, last night’s episode wasn’t as good as expected but it was still an OK episode.

The television show on the cable station MSNBC called Lockup is great. The show should be watched by any teenager you may have in the house. It depicts what life in prison is like. How dangerous it is even though you might think being locked up …
Criminal Minds —“ Season One —“ Episode Thirteen—“ Poison
Poisoning is probably the worst way to go. Because you don’t know what it is that killed you. All you know is that you are sick. So this episode really freaked me out. It showed what happens when the media gets a hold of something and doesn’t report it …
Battlestar Galactica
When I say how much I loved the television series “Battlestar Galactica,” I am not talking about the newer version with Edward James Olmos. I am talking about the original “Battlestar Galactica,” written by Glen Larson with Lorne Greene, Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict.
I was around 17 when …
Stargate SG-1: Revisions
I love Stargate SG-1: Revisions. It’s one of my favorites, and I really can’t tell you why, except I get a kick out of it. I love the little town where they filmed the show; it was so cute and quaint.
Actually, what I see Stargate SG-1: Revisions, …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Bitter Wine
From season one, Have Gun - Will Travel: Bitter Wine opens with Paladin (Richard Boone) judging a wine contest. This continues the interesting dichotomy of the Paladin character. He’s a gunfighter for hire with sophisticated tastes and knowledge. I really think that seeing both sides of …

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Beauty and the Beasts
The Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode Beauty and the Beasts actually turned out to be a good one because of the mystery involved.

The Middle TV Show Season 1 Episode 22 “Mother’s Day”
As a mother this episode really resonated with me. The whole episode was about mother’s day and how a father’s perception about the day is different than what a mother wants and how father’s day is fantastic but mother’s day tends to fall flat.
This episode was …
Scream Queens
I absolutely have no idea how in the world this reality TV show made it onto the air. I know that you can basically make a reality show out of anything these days. But this one is so corny that I had to laugh whenever I happened …

The X-Files William Episode
I thought this episode of the popular 1990s television show was okay. I couldn’t say that I found it particularly intriguing, as I didn’t think it was very good. However, I didn’t think that the episode was very terrible either. I thought that all the elements …

The Twilight Zone: Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? TV Show
In my book, The Twilight Zone: Will the Real Martian Please Stand Up? just might be the best of all the episodes from this series. It’s definitely in the top five. There’s no doubt about that.
I absolutely love this program wherein two officers investigate the report of …
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 …

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.15: Trespass
Why oh why did they bother writing this episode? Or more so, what is the point of ‘filler’ episodes like this one? If you know you’re gonna have empty spaces in your TV show’s season, why make extra space for episodes? Anyway, “Trespass” has one of those characters in …
Wipeout Sports Reality Show
When Wipeout was first featured in television, I was so excited to watch it since being an athletic person, this reality show was just like Fear Factor, only triple the hardships and triple the pain! No fear actually, all pain! Thus called Wipeout! This show features contestants having to …
Adam-12: Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend
For me, there isn’t anything terribly exciting about this episode of Adam-12 entitled Log 75: Have a Nice Weekend. The segment I key in on more than the others is one with Norma Connolly as Eva Foster. I met the late Ms. Connolly a few times, and …
Wife Swap
When I think of Wife Swap, the word that immediately comes into my head is WOW. I’m amazed at the way some people are living their life and through Wife Swap I have been able to see that.
Wife Swap is about two families who live in different ways …
CSI Season 5 Episode 4
CSI Season 5 Episode 4
It wasn’t a bad episode, yet it wasn’t very good either. Very average for the show. And I think, it was trying to send some moral lesson, but it wasn’t clear enough to do that. Also, the method in both cases was similar- the writing …

Iron Chef
I had heard about the television show Iron Chef. But, until last night, I hadn’t taken the time to watch it. While I found it somewhat interesting, I’m not sure if it’s a show I would watch on a regular basis.
Basically, the premise behind Iron Chef is you have …
Laramie: A Sound of Bells TV Show
Laramie: A Sound of Bells was the series only Christmas story, and it was a part of its second year on television. I just adore this hour long show that has action and lots of smarm for those of us who enjoy good buddy westerns like this series …
Crime 360 show
I myself love the little mystery shows. I really don’t know why or how, but they grab & keep my attention. But one show that keeps me interested in it is Crime 360; this show is so educational, & so amazing. I never knew about what …
Bones: The Princess and the Pear
For the most part, I like the show Bones. But, some episodes, like this week’s “the Princess and the Pear” tend to be a bit too dumb to be enjoyable.

The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Truman Capote TV Show
Odd becomes odder when Truman Capote was the subject of a celebrity roast on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Capote was eccentric, that’s for sure, so he was easy to make fun of.
Ted Knight got a few laughs early on, and then it was Audrey Meadows’ turn. …
TV SHOW MONK

Stargate SG-1: Disclosure
Once every season as a rule, there is a clip show done on Stargate SG-1 which essentially saves on money. It’s a filler show, with little new action. Stargate SG-1: Disclosure was the season 6 clip show, and in this case, the only regular cast member to …
Clifford:Mac’s Secret Dog Club
I recently rented a DVD of episodes from the show Clifford the Big Red Dog for my daughter. And, even though I wasn’t watching it with her very closely, some of the episodes managed to stick out in my head. One of those was “Mac’s Secret Dog Club.”
I liked …
M*A*S*H: Life Time
Alan Alda co-wrote this episode with a physician and then directed it as well. The show is M*A*S*H: Life Time and as the show progresses, a clock is on the screen the entire time. It’s somewhat of a ‘real time’ story, and that’s the unique angle of …
Buck Rogers - The Fighting 69th
This episode used to freak me out as a little kid mainly because the disfigured villains were so cruel and their attempts to kill everyone on earth with nerve gas paled in comparison to their tormenting of a deaf girl and their attempt to set Buck Rogers on fire! …
