Since Phineas Bogg was a pirate, it makes since that a show would be done about pirates and that came to pass with Voyagers!: Old Hickory and the Pirate, which aired during the November sweeps season of 1982. In this case, it’s all about Jean Lafitte being accused …

Highway Patrol’s 18th show from its third year was a little different, and I liked that quite a bit. As the name might indicate, The Seventh Green, which aired back in February 1958, opened with Chief of Police Dan Mathews (Broderick Crawford) playing a round of golf with …

So I was bored on day and decided to see what was new ondemand. I had stumbled upon a new series on HBO called True Blood about a back woods Lousianna town where vampires run rampant. I got sucked in by Anna Paquin’s character Sookie who has …

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 …

Richard Boone is in practically every scene of this western series. He’s the star, and that comes through loud and clear. He was a very talented actor and taught acting for years, too. Have Gun - Will Travel: Winchester Quarantine lets him show off a …

Talk about poorly placed timing, the powers that be at Stargate SG-1 made a very bad choice. My understanding is that the episode called Past and Present was supposed to be either earlier or later in the season. After being tossed around the season schedule, it had …

“Bye, Bye Butterfree” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. Although this is a farewell episode for one of Ash’s Pokemon, Butterfree, I don’t feel it was very effective. This is only the twenty-first episode of the series and Butterfree never was really used by Ash in particularly …

“I am Duncan MacLeod, born four hundred years ago in the Highlands of Scotland. I am Immortal and I am not alone. For centuries we have waited for the time of the Gathering, when the stroke of a sword and the fall of a head will release the power …

I rather enjoyed Have Gun - Will Travel: The Princess and the Gunfighter which is actually quite charming at points. Much of that is due to the presence of Arlene Martel, who at that point in her career went by the name of Arline Sax. Many viewers …

Daily I look forward to sitting down comfortably and watching an episode of The People’s Court. The people’s court is presided over by Judge Marilyn Milian, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to do it. She has a little bit of an attitude complimented by a sassy, yet …

On the Run- Globetrotter
This is yet another great episode of the show On the Run- the show that tells the stories of real life sophisticated and unusual criminals, most of which love to live the high life on someone else’s money.
In this episode we get to hear the story …

I really wonder why the doctor from Star Trek Voyager, I know his name is Robert Picardo, but for some reason he’ll always remain the doctor from the Voyager to me, has to play negative characters all the time?
This episode was actually one of the better ones of the …

America’s Next Top Model: Diane von Furstenberg was the second hour long episode of Cycle 15. As the title would indicate, the famous designer was part of the program, being part of the first challenge and then participating in the judges panel for the elimination at the very …

The funny thing about the Bob Wire episode of Have Gun - Will Travel from season six is that I didn’t realize the title was the name of a character. I was thinking it was an object, like barbed wire. Alas, Bob Wire is the name of …

I have to admit that I don’t like the beginning this Adam-12 episode. It bothers me on many levels. As an animal lover, it’s unnerving and disturbing. It concerns an elderly woman (Alma Platt) who intentionally left her gas on in an attempt to euthanize her …

The United States version of Undercover Boss recently aired an episode that focused on NASCAR. As a NASCAR fan, I was curious how this would work, mainly because NASCAR is more of a governing body than an employer; at least in the sense of how they portrayed it …

I tuned into Burn Notice: Truth and Reconciliation originally because it included Michael Shanks as a guest star. He was reoccurring in the role of Victor, a very colorful operative of questionable nature. The bad news was that as it turned out, Victor only showed up for one …

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: The Rescue is full of high angst and emotion, pretty much from beginning to end. There’s a bad storm brewing in the Murphys and Sonora areas, and Hannah (Terri Treas) is called on to help out with some medical assistance.
There’s just one problem. …

Lisa Jane Persky gets a chance to shine in Private Eye: High Heels and Silver Wings from 1987. Persky was a regular on this detective drama that didn’t last more than a half-season, and her part was that of the wacky, daffy, wannabe starlet that is very stereotypical …

I got home from work last night and, since I was exhausted, sat down on the couch and began flipping through channels on TV. I came across an episode of the show Monk that I hadn’t seen before; Mr. Monk and the Sleeping Suspect, and decided to watch it.
This …

When I was watching Eureka TV continuously I was seeing commercials for Warehouse 13 TV show. I don’t know why but I got the idea that this show was a horror science fiction one and I wasn’t very interested in it. I like science fiction, Eureka is one of …

The Andy Griffith Show: Andy and Barney in the Big City from season two opens with a funny bit with Opie (Ron Howard) having just lost a tooth and having a lisp as a result. Deputy Barney Fife (Don Knotts) does a tongue twister with him that is …

Voyagers!: All Fall Down just isn’t a show I’m much interested in and the reason for that is pretty simple. It’s two-thirds boxing, and I do not like boxing. I’ve watched it from time to time and even followed the careers of a boxer here and there, …

This episode is interesting, yes another survival scenario which I find they are more thought out than other shows. Especially with all the inventions the professor comes up with. Like in this episode not just the professor comes up with the hut ark, but also the women do too. …

It’s almost Christmas and there are plenty of Christmas specials on the air right now. Last night, one of the TV stations aired the half hour long special Frosty the Snowman and we decided to let our daughter watch it.

I love the Star Trek’s Favorite Moments featurette which allows us to get a look at some of the Trek performers and what it is that attracted them to this science fiction series. Michael Dorn, Ethan Phillips, and Tim Russ all spoke about how they watched Star Trek …

This kids’ show is great for kids. WHile the heroine, Kim, is a cheerleader, she also gets good grades, is a good friend to her friends, and saves the world through her website.
The best part of the show might be her best friend and sidekick Ron’s pet naked mole …

This latest instalment of the superb series, The Universe, provides one of its most hypothetical episodes yet.
In this instalment, “Space Wars”, our favourite experts talk us through what war would be like in outer space. There’s rogue moon colonies, alien civilizations threatening the earth and potential solutions to protect …

Hawaii Five-O: Six Kilos is another showcase for Jack Lord. So many episodes are nearly solo vehicles for Lord, and this is another one of them. The rest of the cast are relegated to brief moments on the screen as McGarrett checks in with them.
In Six Kilos, McGarrett …

Afro Samurai Episode 5 begins with the final battle between Afro and Justice.
This was a great ending to Afro Samurai. It had plenty of action, the swordfight was amazing and everything wrapped itself up while still leaving the possibility of a sequel open.
The voice acting …

Well, I survived the season premiere of Project Runway and noticed there was a different show on right after, Models of the Runway. Since our infant daughter was wide awake still, i took the time to watch it too.
This was something a bit different. Basically, it is a half …

Two of my favorite NCIS episodes back to back. We go from “Dead Man Talking,” to “Missing,” which was a wonderful episode.
This case was full of twists and turns…the kind that makes NCIS the number one drama on television today. A navy man goes missing and it …

Episode 6 in the series, “Downfall of a Droid”, spends more time with Anakin Skywalker and his apprentice Ahsoka Tano as we focus on their search for R2-D2 who became detached from their spacecraft during a fierce dogfight in space with some Separatist ships. Not only does Anakin value …

I was looking forward to seeing the one-off drama ‘Worried About the Boy’ and I think it was one of the best things on television lately. It re-enacts the story of how Boy George, of Culture Club fame, rose to fame back in the early 1980s but I …

Well, last night’s episode of Bones wasn’t the best episode I’ve seen, but it wasn’t the worst one either.

An unusual episode, but one of the more interesting of the final few seasons; Improbable offers us a strange tale of numerology, a hunt for a serial killer and a strange individual who seems to know the answers to everything, played by the brilliant Burt Reynolds.
It’s Reyes who’s …

30 Minute Meals is one of Food Network’s most popular shows. Rachael Ray is the cook/host and she rocks! She comes up with 30 minute meals with simple instructions, easy to find items, and a new, creative twist on old or slow cooking meals. I love all of her …

With this episode, the agents face a horror unlike anything they’ve ever seen. Interestingly enough, there is no real X-file, on the contrary, they are pit against what they refer to as a “death fetishist”, someone who collects trophies (such as hair or fingernails) from dead bodies. …

And I thought I could handle most of the stuff this show was throwing at me. This was the bloodiest episode so far. It was about an assassin. And assassin with a personality disorder—¦not a good combination. Our team had to walk into a blood covered bathroom. They also …
