Mork & Mindy: It’s a Wonderful Mork
Wow, who knew a clever show like Mork & Mindy would have gone down the road so many other shows have gone down; doing it’s own version of It’s a Wonderful Life?”
“It’s a Wonderful Mork” isn’t too bad but it’s still something that has been done before. How many …
American Idol
American idol is a reality television show where the contestants audition to be included in the competition. The audience then votes on their favourite until one is ultimately named the American Idol.
I love this show. The audition process is hilarious, while the quality of the talent may …
M*A*S*H: Last Laugh
M*A*S*H: Last Laugh is just too vaudeville and slapstick for me to enjoy very much. It’s such low quality compared to the excellency of the prior show that it’s even disappointing.
There are a couple of plots going on, neither of which held my interest. The main story centered …
The Virginian: The Executioners
When The Virginian aired originally, I just wasn’t a fan. It was a ninety minute show, in color, and starred Lee J Cobb, Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, James Drury, and Roberta Shore. Honestly, the shore bored me. I tried watching it, but I wasn’t attracted to …

M*A*S*H: Snap Judgment is the first part of a two-part episode that focuses with items being stolen from the 4077th. In this first installment, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) and B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell) are sent a brand new Polaroid camera by the grateful father of a patient. …
In the Flesh (BBC Three Drama)

It all started with Stephenie Meyer’s series of books “Twilight”, which flew off the shelves, and continued to a blockbuster movie series that starred Hollywood’s hottest young elite. Soon came …
Stand Up 2 Cancer 2010 TV Show
For the second time, a special telethon-like program called Stand Up 2 Cancer aired on several networks on September 10, 2010. With all three network news anchors — Brian Williams, Katie Couric, and Diane Sawyer — appearing together, the one hour event is unique in that it aired …
Monica: The Single (Peachtree TV network show)
This show apparently follows singer Monica in her quest for completing a new single. I heard this was going to be a reality show series about Monica. But in fact, this is really a show Bryan Michael Cox put together to emphasize the necessities of putting together …

From November 2002, Stargate: Infinity’s twelfth episode of its lone season on the air is called Initiation. In it, Major Gus Bonner and his team of cadets visit a lovely world to relax in for a while, only an earthquake spoils their fun. In the process, Harrison, …
Family Matters TV show
Family Matters is a classic American TV show. This show is just awesome. It is the show introduced the character known as Urkel to the world. I loved watching this show when I was growing up as a kid. I think this is one of the funnest shows ever made. …
Ghost Hunters: The Stone Lion Inn
Hmm, I watched my final disk in the Ghost Hunters Season 2 DVD collection I’ve been renting yesterday and have to say the one, The Stone Lion Inn, was a bit on the dull side.
The first case was, of course, the Inn, which was supposed to be very haunted. …
Gilmore Girls
Characteristic of many a television series coming out of the United States of America, Gilmore Girls has a certain flirtatious appeal about it from a distance, and I am so glad I had nothing better to do, about four or five years back one evening, and decided to sit …
The Carol Burnett Show: Ken Berry and Roddy McDowall TV Show
This episode of The Carol Burnett Show featured Ken Berry and Roddy McDowall. It’s from the 11th season and apparently was one right after the beginning of the year. The monologue was pretty funny. Some guy asked her if she needed a lawyer and gave Burnett …
The Andy Griffith Show: Andy Discovers America TV Show
Someone finally fit the bill that the producers of The Andy Griffith Show were looking for. I think Aneta Corsaut was super as Helen Crump, Opie’s teacher, but I’m really not sure why she was better than Joanna Moore. Whatever the reason, we meet Miss Crump for …
Starhub Cable Vision
Starhub Cable Vision (SCV) is a singapore based cable tv company. I have been using their service on a regular basic for the last ten years. Generally i am quite pleased with the services as they have continue to improve the quality and quantity of programs available.
They have …
Undercover Boss UK: Tower Hamlets TV Show
Kevan Collins, CEO for just four months at Tower Hamlets, steps up to the plate in this episode of Undercover Boss - UK. Now I’m a bit handicapped by my American perspective because I haven’t a clue what they were talking about in terms of how this Tower …
CSI Season 5 Episode 2 Down the Drain
I don’t know if I really like this episode or really hated it; there are some interesting points to it, yet it was really hard to watch, which took away from the enjoyment of the show. I realize that in the real life, the crimes and the investigations are …
From the Earth to the Moon
From the Earth to the Moon was a marvelous and dramatic account of the United States quest to reach the moon. The early part of the quest is focused more on the race with the Russians over who would conquer the moon first, while the second part is …
Mayday Season 3 Episode 2 TV show
I really enjoyed this episode of mayday, just like many of the other episodes. You can easily tell just how much good work is put into each and everyone of the episodes. But I think that this episode stood out even more than the rest. The best thing …
House: Last Resort
Well, we finally had a House episode with plenty of drama that didn’t involve a possible relationship between House and Cuddy; about time.
“Last Resort” was actually a pretty good episode for this series. You have a desperate patient pulling a gun and taking people hostage until House can diagnose …
The Virginian: The Showdown TV Show
From April 1965, The Virginian: The Showdown was an intriguing episode that had good drama and some equally good acting. I’m usually not much of a fan of the shows that feature one member of the Shiloh ranch away from Wyoming, especially when its The Virginian himself, but …
The TV network MTV
The network MTV really sucks now a days and I am sorry but MTV is short for music television but seriously how often does MTV plays music? They hardly play music anymore except in the mornings, like very early mornings and that is about it. I think it is …
Lovely Complex Anime Series
This anime series came out in 2007. And although some people might think it’s old news, it is still worth checking out!
It is about the comical love of two people with height complexes - a very tall girl named Koizumi Risa and a very short boy named Otani Atsushi. …
CHiPs: Trick or Trick
CHiPs: Trick or Trick is the Halloween show and it begins great, with 13 black cats running in front of the very superstitious Frank Poncherello (Erik Estrada). For Ponch, it only gets worse, but it makes for great fun as he deals with walking under a ladder and …

Storage Wars
I watched the new show on A&E called Storage Wars the other day. I was just flipping though the channels and happened to stop on this show for no particular reason. The show follows around 4 professional buyers as they bid on storage lockers. According to …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime TV Show
Okay, The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime is another one of those weird stories that I need to watch three or four times to really get it, but I don’t want to. Once was plenty.
Ray Bradbury is certainly a talented and gifted science fiction author, but he’s …
John Adams: Unnecessary War TV Show
The sixth of seventh episodes, Unnecessary War continues the mini-series, John Adams, which aired on HBO in April 2008. It’s a complex and involved story of a patriot who is iconic, but who was just a human being full of strength and fallacy. We see the weaker …
John and Kate plus 8
I recently watched a couple of episodes of John and Kate plus 8. I like this show because it is different and unique. It’s not like a lot of shows on television today. It’s about a couple who had trouble getting kids. Well they ended up having eight kids. …

Cupcake Wars: Ace of Cakes 100th Episode Celebration was geared towards the running pleasing the owner and star of the Food Network’s “Ace of Cakes” series. His name is Duff and he hates cupcakes, but here he was, eating and judging four contestants, the winner of which would …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Jack Benny TV Show
Jack Benny was the Man of the Week for this edition of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Benny was a hoot, a terrific comedian and actor. I thought he was great and always enjoyed watching him. He was definitely worth being one of this show’s honorees.
It …
Seinfeld
I just love watching Seinfeld reruns. I really wish that I had watched the show when it was airing, because I have become such a huge fan. Jerry Seinfeld is hilarious, and I love his interactions with his good friends, Kramer, Elaine and George. How funny can this show …

Curb’s latest season concludes with this 40 minute special as the Seinfeld reunion show storyline finally comes to a close. As the final rehearsals begin, Larry is desperate to get Cheryl back once and for all, but an irate coffee maker, a damaged antique table and a blossoming romance …

The Apprentice UK: S6, Ep 3 TV Show
The Apprentice in the United Kingdom continued with this third outing in which the job applicants are given a very early morning phone call and told to meet Lord Sugar at Piccadelly in a half hour. Nothing like short notice; it’s fun.
At the beginning, Lord Sugar changes up …
Ghost Hunters Academy: Blame Game
Last night was the second-to-last episode of this season’s Ghost Hunters Academy and, if they pick a winner, I really don’t see that person being someone who would really stand out on the Ghost Hunters show.
They sent the team to the St. Augustine Lighthouse; the same place that Ghost …
Have Gun - Will Travel: In an Evil Time
Hank Patterson was the main guest star in Have Gun - Will Travel: In an Evil Time from season two of this Richard Boone western. Oddly, I don’t really have a lot to say about it. Patterson did an excellent job as an old man Paladin comes …
Drop Dead Diva Season 4 Episode 1 - TV Show
I waited for quite a long time for drop dead diva to come back on air. It is a very lighthearted and silly little show, but I can’t help but loving it and enjoyed every single moment of it. By the way that the previous season ended, it was …
MSNBC
All of the cable news networks have a slogan, or more than one; Fox News has “Fair and Balanced” and “We Report, You Decide” but none are as accurate in the opinion of this viewer and political junkie as MSNBC’s. With its line-up of entertaining and informative shows and …
The Office: Casino Night
While it’s always fun to watch the office sometimes the individual episodes of the show can blend together. Casino Night is not one of those episodes.
Part of that is because most of the show takes place out of the office, but there are also very interesting interaction between characters …
A Man Called Hawk: Never My Love
A Man Called Hawk: Never My Love opens with Angela Bassett, who recurs on this series as Bailey Webster, a friend of Hawk’s. Bailey is an intelligent, strong, and self-assured character, only she shows here that she’s also very dumb. This show isn’t back in the 60’s; …
Highway Patrol: Express Delivery TV Show
From season 4, episode 34 of the half hour police drama Highway Patrol was called Express Delivery. It was another outing that focused on a gem courier. I’d say this series did at least one of those per season, so they had to rely on presentation in …
The Best of the Tony Awards - The Plays
While another ‘best of’ set looks at the great musicals that have graced the Broadway stage and been performed on The Tony Awards shows, this volume presents some of the great dramatic and comedic Broadway performances. All of the performances presented appeared on the broadcast for The Tony …
CSI New York Season 2 Episode 22- Stealing Home
CSI New York Season 2 Episode 22- Stealing Home
A very average episode for the show. There were a few interesting moments, but then the rest was not good at all. It began looking like a really good story, but it died in the middle. I don’t think it is …
ESPN’s Monday Night Football
I used to like to watch Monday night football when the game was enhnaced by good television sports casters such as Howard Cosell, John Madden, and Al Micheals. Now I just mute it. I don’t know why but I just don’t feel it with the current announcers. …
House TV Show
A few years ago, I ended up almost accidentally watching the show House when it first came on the air. And, I immediately fell in love with it.
I don’t normally like medical dramas (I never saw an episode of ER) but this one was something different because it was …
The Art of Fashion
If this week’s episode of Project Runway did anything, it was to get me interested in visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The contestants had to visit the museum in order to be inspired with their outfits. And, they were expected to take risks this week in an effort to …
