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 …
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 3 Call Waiting
In this episode the story continues, and it gets more and more complicated. I don’t really like the new setting, it is just too chaotic and to the pressing. I think I like the jail in the first season, there were some rules to follow, and everything …
The Virginian: Dangerous Road TV Show
The Virginian: Dangerous Road was interesting to me mostly because the main guest star was Robert Pine. Pine became a household name to me when the TV series, CHiPs aired on television. The funny thing is that I didn’t even recognize him. I’d never seen him …
The Philanthropist
I had really high hopes for The Philanthropist when I first saw the commercials. It looked like an exciting action/adventure show with a real human element, and important moral message. The pilot lived up to those expectations. Telling the story of a billionaire who suddenly snaps …
House: Saviors
Last night’s episode of House, entitled “Saviors” was actually one of the better House episodes I’ve seen in recent history.
This, of course, is the episode that takes place one week after the shocker involving Kutner’s suicide and the team has to figure out the cause of an environmentalist’s sudden …
Babylon 5: Season 1, Episode 7: Mind War
Now this is more in line with what I’ve come to expect from Babylon 5. The story is engaging and there are several angles to the story. While the episode could’ve gone with the traditional “psi cops are good guys trying to catch the rogue villain” route, …

I Love Lucy TV show
The I Love Lucy TV show may be a bit old, but it is still one of the best, leaving far behind most of the modern-day shows that I can only describe as stupidity/immorality parade.
I Love Lucy is funny and tasteful. You can watch it with your children without …

Dancing with the Stars - Australia - Week 3 TV Show

The Veil: Jack the Ripper TV Show
Boris Karloff’s 1958 anthology series, The Veil, took on yet another different tactic in the episode called Jack the Ripper. This is the first episode of the series where Karloff didn’t even have a small role in the production. All he did was host the show. However, …
Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever
As far as Monk episodes go, Mr. Monk Gets Lotto Fever was actually one of the worse ones I’ve seen.
While the side-plot of Natalie getting a job as television’s lotto girl was somewhat interesting, the reality was the show itself was a bit cruddy because there was really no …

Whoopi: Pilot TV Show
Back in 2003, Whoopi Goldberg starred in a TV show for the NBC network. It was, naturally, a situation comedy. Now I’m not all that fond of modern sitcoms because the humor is too provocative for my tastes. I wanted to watch this, though, because I …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 3: The Fires of Pompeii
The Doctor and Donna arrive in what they think is ancient Rome, only to realize that they’re in Pompeii. Even worse, they’re on the verge of Volcano Day.

So You Think You Can Dance: Top Four Perform TV Show

Adam-12: Elegy for a Pig
For fans of Adam-12 who track the show and its continuity, season three’s Elegy for a Pig is a challenge. It’s presented documentary style and in a completely different tone than the usual half-hour episode. In reality, this show is a standalone episode. Think of it as …
Supernatural TV show

This sitcom has been on for a few years now, and we enjoy both watching reruns of old episodes, and catching the new ones that air on Monday nights.

Supernatural: Season One
Supernatural is a television series about two brothers who travel around the US killing supernatural entities who attack humans who have no idea of what is really going in the world. That’s the basic idea of Supernatural, but the series itself is so much more.
I wasn’t really grabbed by …
Bones TV Episode: The Killer in the Crosshairs
Synopsis: Booth must once again try to catch his fellow sniper/mentor as he starts targeting more criminals around the DC area.

Fireball XL5: The Complete Series DVD collection
First of all, owning the Fireball XL5: The Complete Series DVD collection is something I’ve wanted for a long time. It’s a feel good, science fiction, and sentimental thing for me, so watching these shows again was really wonderful.

Ghost Hunters
I try to keep an open mind when it comes to the paranormal. I don’t necessarily believe in ghosts but I’m more than willing to allow people to try to prove their existence to me.
That being said, even though I’ve watched several episodes of Ghost Hunters and have seen …
ABC’s 25 Days of Christmas

The Twilight Zone: The 7th Is Made up of Phantoms TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The 7th Is Made up of Phantoms is a little on the strange show, but since this entire series is about strange, I suppose that is okay. In short, what this episode revolves around are three National Guard soldiers, going about their business while on …
That 70s Show: Backstage Pass
I got home in time last night to watch some re-runs of That 70s Show, including one I haven’t seen before; Backstage Pass.

I wasn’t a huge fan of the part involving the friends trying to …

VH1’s Hogan Knows Best

From January 1960, Sea Hunt: Hot Cargo deals with Mike Nelson leading the first underwater flotilla command for the Coast Guard, which is a bit of a twist. We’ve seen Nelson on reserve duty for the Navy, which is logical since he’s an ex-Navy frogman, but what we …
MacGyver: A Prisoner of Conscience
Season one of MacGyver rolls on with A Prisoner of Conscience, another episode with some kind of Russian focus. I guess it was a sign of the 80’s — lots of Russian types of stories. Dana Elcar is again in the show as Pete Thornton, and …
