The Office: Goodbye Toby
The final episode of season 4 of “The Office”, this episode was a nearly flawless episode. It is centered around Toby’s last day at work, and the amount of joy that Michal takes from that is the center of the episode. Every member of cast had their moments.
With Toby …
Secret Life of the American Teenager Season 2 Episode 19
This episode of Secret Life was intense. As usual there was a lot going on.
Lots of weddings ins tore. Adrian’s mom and dad, Grace’s mom, Ben’s parents and possibly Amy’s parents. Maybe it’s something in the water but it sure will have more exciting episodes …
Flavor Flav TV Show
Flavor Flavs house of love is one of my favorite shows. The show featurs former rapper Flavor Flav who is now in his 40s and looking for love. Twenty women went on this show and are all fighting it out for his affection. Simple enough. Except in my opinion …
Mork & Mindy: A Mommy for Morky
There isn’t much on TV today so I found myself watching re-runs of Mork & Mindy most of the morning. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the show but the episode “A Mommy for Morky,” reminded me of everything that I missed about the series.
I don’t remember Mindy …
Doctor Who: Season 1, Episode 2: The End of the World
This episode picks up where the last left off, with Rose entering the TARDIS and joining the Doctor on his adventure. He asks her where in time she wants to go and she responds by suggesting they jump forward a century, and then 10,000 years. Oddly enough, …
Saigon Suicide Squad : Upright Citizens Brigade
The Saigon Suicide Squad episode is a bit different from most other Upright Citizens Brigade episodes. It is a pretty contained piece of work, with almost all of the action happening only on a single stage (instead of going around from location to location like most UCB episodes). …
MacGyver: The Escape
The first thing I noticed about MacGyver: The Escape, which is the twentieth episode of the first season is that we’re heading towards the infamous mullet hairdo. Richard Dean Anderson’s hair is dramatically longer here than in the previous episode, so there clearly was no visit to the …
The World Strictest Parents - TV Show - BBC 3
The Worlds Strictest Parents is a show on BBC 3. The title is not quite as harsh as it might seem. There has not been a competition to find the strictest parents, or anything like that, but the purpose of the show is to take teenagers from the U.K …
MacGyver: D.O.A.: MacGyver
MacGyver: D.O.A.: MacGyver is a neat little episode where MacGyver gets a nasty case of amnesia and ends up believing that Pete is a terrorist he’s been hunting for years. The face off is really a great bit of angst at the end of the show. It …
The Office TV Show
A few years ago, NBC’s The Office was the best show on the air. Quick, clever, and hilarious, this was a pleasure to tune into each and every week. The excitement of the tension between Pam and Jim, the awkwardness that Michael is sure to cause, and Dwight’s disturbing …
Simpsons Treehouse of Horror XIX
Ok, I have to say the latest Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors (number XIX) was absolutely hillarious. It was a genius bit of writing that you haven’t seen on the show in a while.
The middle skit on the show, where Homer is hired to kill celebrities, isn’t the greatest but …
Ghosthunters International: Port Arthur Prison Episode
I love watching Ghosthunters, and today there is a Ghosthunters marathon being aired on Syfy. Although I didn’t start watching this one from the very start, I think I was lucky enough to catch it some time after it started and see the GHI team in action capturing so …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One - Suds
Spongebob is sent home one day from work at the Krusty Krab because he is not feeling so well and he was not productive. It just kills him to leave work because he loves that place. The more and more that he sits around the house, he …
Cupcake Wars: Vintage Cupcakes TV Show
I have to admit that this episode of Cupcake Wars called Vintage Cupcakes was the first one where I wasn’t captivated off the bat by at least one of the contestants during the first round. This was the taste test repackaging traditional flavors with modern ingredients. The …
The Simpsons Season 4 Episode 13
Marge tells her family that their great aunt Gladys is dead. So the entire family alongwith Selma and Patty drive to aunt Gladys place. In the video while distributing her possessions, aunt Gladys tells Patty and Selma not to die lonely, but to raise a family. This really hits …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Last Judgment TV Show
From the fourth year of Have Gun - Will Travel, The Last Judgment finds Paladin (Richard Boone) defending Dr. Simeon Loving (Donald Randolph) of murder in a town that is ready to hang him. It’s not so much because they believe the man to be guilty, but it’s …
The Twilight Zone: Shadow Play TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Shadow Play is one of those shows I just don’t enjoy watching. It’s a difficult show because I simply feel for the situation. It’s a nightmare. More than that, main performer Dennis Weaver plays his part with such pain and conflict that it’s …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Contagion
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Contagion is one of season two’s more exciting outings and the reason I enjoy this episode so much is because it tells the story of a long-dead civilization that utilized remarkable technology and it is generally accepted that this civilization used such technology …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Bomb is the second episode of the second year that this wonderful Irwin Allen science fiction series was on the air. Following are some observations about this 1965 episode:
–The opening shot in the theme is a bit different in what …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Thirty Hours
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Thirty Hours is one of the better episodes of this animal adventure series. It has a lot of basic hurt-comfort elements to it, and that’s a style of TV show I tend to enjoy, even I don’t like the series overall.
On the plus side …
Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Cedar
Somebody’s stealing Larry’s newspapers—¦and a neighbourhood get together for Cedar provides the ideal opportunity to nail the culprit.
Meanwhile, a registered sex offender has moved into the neighbourhood and despite some initial apprehension, Larry is soon charmed and endeared toward the man and Cheryl is outraged to discover Larry …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: …And Five of Us Are Left TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: …And Five of Us Are Left, the third episode of the second season of this series which stars Richard Basehart and David Hedison, puts forth an intriguing and somewhat thought provoking ‘what if’ story that begins with an event from World …
The Virginian: Old Cowboy TV Show
The Virginian: Old Cowboy is not a new or novel idea. It’s been told in TV and movies for decades. I realize this is an older show, but even for the 60’s, it’s been told before. What is the focus is an old cowboy, a man …
Family Guy 10-3: Screams of Silence
Why do I feel like everytime I write about Family Guy Season 10, I’m asking for help, to save the series before it’s driven into the ground even more? I want so much for this series to be great, but as each new episode comes out, I’m finding myself …
M*A*S*H: The Abduction of Margaret Houlihan
The title of this episode is slightly misleading, since Margaret isn’t abducted at all. Still, in M*A*S*H: The Abduction of Margaret Houlihan, everyone but Corporal Klinger (Jamie Farr) thinks that is what happened to the missing major. In reality, she went to deliver a Korean woman’s baby. …
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: The Election TV show
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: The Election deals with an issue that is still relevant over 25 years later — pollution of the waters. This convinces the McFadden brothers that Adam (Richard Dean Anderson) should challenge the current sheriff for the office in the upcoming election.
Naturally, the current …
Stargate SG1: Window of Opportunity
“Window of Opportunity,” episode 6 of season 4, was probably one of the funniest Stargate SG1 episodes there was (and there were many).
This episode was tendered along the long of “Groundhog Day.” As it starts out, SG-1 is on a planet with a man who, unbeknownst …
Max Headroom: Baby Grobags TV show
From 1988, Max Headroom: Baby Grobags is the final episode of this unique series. Though there are relatively few programs completed in its run, they mostly all have a point of view and something to say.
In Baby Grobags, Amanda Hillwood guest stars as Helen. She and her …
Getting On (BBC4)
Comediennes Jo Brand, and the lesser known Jo Scanlan and Vicki Pepperdine bring us a satirical look at the day to day workings of a modern NHS hospital.
It’s a strange show to first get into, using mainly ad-libbed dialogue and some camera work you’d expect from the likes …
Arrested Development TV series
The television series “Arrested Development” is not to be confused with the music group from the nineteen nineties with the same name. In fact I even heard on VH1 that the television series was almost sued by the music group after one of their members was watching the superbowl …
Naruto Episode 1 Subbed
Naruto has quickly become one of the most popular anime series both in America and in Japan, although the dubbing of the series into English resulted in the show being geared towards a younger audience in America, unlike the real audience that the show was originally made for in …
Stargate SG-1: Divide and Conquer
Divide is exactly what Stargate SG-1: Divide and Conquer did to SG-1 fandom, and it didn’t conquer anything. All it did was sever the fandom even more.
Stargate SG-1: Divide and Conquer is the upsetisode that took footage from the previous Upgrades episode to serve the purposes of this …
Family Guy: Petergiest
This entertaining enough parody of the horror movie Poltergeist proves to be a solid episode from the forth season.
It’s a pretty affectionate spoof, with Stewie stepping into the shoes of Carol Anne and effeminate Bruce popping up in a role influenced by Zelda Rubenstein’s diminutive medium. After a …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Valerie Harper TV Show
Taped in Las Vegas, it was Valerie Harper as the Woman of the Hour in this edition of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. For me, it had a slow start. I didn’t think Dean Martin’s opening had much spark to it, and Rich Little’s Henry Kissinger impression …
Highway Patrol: Deadly Diamonds TV Show
From December 1958, Highway Patrol: Deadly Diamonds was an okay half hour, but the entertainment value wasn’t as strong as some other outings simply because it’s a stale plot. We’ve seen jewelry thieves on the show before, and we’ve also seen three person teams.
Frankly, the set up for …
Due South: Say Amen
Due South: Say Amen is a story that has been done before, in western genres and all other types of dramas. That said, it’s still fairly well done and is entertaining.
The one thing that really makes no sense, though, concerns the character of Inspector Meg Thatcher. We …
Modern Family TV series
Modern Family is a new TV series that debut this Fall on ABC. I actually didn’t know about this show until about five episodes in and watched it out of curiosity and boredom, I was very surprised at how good this show turned out to be. Now that …
Gilmore Girls
WOW! This tv series is WOW! Have you seen this? If you haven’t, you should! I’ve watched this series on dvds, I borrowed my aunt’s dvds, she has like every season of them. I never watched them on tv, since I really don’t have …
Sports Unlimited
Being a sports lover and being active in different sports, I must say that, for me, Sports Unlimited is a gem of a TV program here in the Philippines.
It’s basically a TV show in ABS-CBN Channel 2 (a local broadcasting network) every Saturday, 12 am, which essentially covers different …
Here Come the Brides: Wives for Wakando
Here Come the Brides: Wives for Wakando from Season 1 is one of the few I’m not all that crazy about. It’s good, but it just doesn’t quite make me smile as most of the other episodes do. In Wives for Wakando, Wakando and his band of …
Avatar: The Last Airbender: Book 3, Episode 3: The Painted Lady
Team Avatar comes to a small fishing town that has been ravaged by pollution courtesy of a fire nation military factory. I was a bit worried when the episode started out, having grown up in the age of Fern Gully and Captain Planet, I really don’t need some …
Clean House (American TV Show)
Ask anyone of their aspiration in life and house is certainly included in their long wish-list. I am one of the persons who aspire to have one someday, for now I’m content of seeing elegant houses on magazines and on TV. Clean House a foreign TV show, seems to …
The Apprentice: Rock the Catwalk TV Show
The Apprentice: Rock the Catwalk made me wonder if maybe I were really watching Project Runway. Actually, parts of it had some very entertaining moments. This latest hour of Donald Trump’s very long job interview began with last week’s winning project manager, Clint, having a meeting with …
Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 11
Welcome to the first test of the Nerv emergency backup power generation center, which Nerv supports 100%! Yeah, right. On Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 11 “The day Tokyo 3 stood still” is a sure fire classic that still makes me crack up over how ineffective this system really is. …
Eureka Seven episode 50
Now with a thunderous cry from the heavens and convoys of angels rushing overhead, we now have finally reached the end of the epic and long saga solely known as Eureka Seven. With an overcast sky, we are forced to accept the truth despite what we would like or …
The X-Files: 4-D
A vicious serial killer flitting between alternate realities to live out his sinister fantasies without retribution is the premise of this episode.
This is a solid enough episode, and one of the first to really seal the new pairing of Doggett and Reyes as something to take notice of. Both …
Smallville: Bride
“Bride” is the episode of Smallville originally airing on November 20, 2008 on the CW. It was the best episode of the year, easily! Now we must wait for almost two months before the next new episodes air in January.
“Bride” was great from beginning to end. …
