COPS
I like the TV show COPS. It’s very entertaining and exciting. COPS is show that shows the real life events of cops going after dangerous criminals. I like the show because it is very fast paced intense. You will see lots of gun shots fights and crazy things on COPS. …
South Park - Crippled Summer
Just this title told me that it had something to do with either Timmy or Jimmy. While I like both characters, having just episodes about them have been hit and miss episodes in general. They haven’t really come up to par with …
Doctor Who: Season 5, Episode 3: Victory of the Daleks
This episode picks up where the last left off, with the Doctor and Amy heading back to WW2 after getting a call for help from Winston Churchill. Despite arriving a month late, things aren’t looking too bad. Well, all things considered, of course, there is still a …
Diagnosis Murder: Murder Most Vial TV Show
Diagnosis Murder: Murder Most Vial from season two centers around an unhappy multi-millionaire named William Bissell who sues the hospital for malpractice. It’s a frivolous lawsuit really since the nasty tycoon admits he hasn’t been following doctor’s orders. He ultimately becomes the murder victim. By the …
The How To Channel
This is a fantastic channel that Foxtel Australia have. I has Martha, as in Martha Stewart, which is a really good show and the last month they showed Martha’s daughter and her radio co-host who were hilarious together. I also love a show on there …

John Doe: Doe Re: Me TV show
At the opening of John Doe: Doe Re: Me, the amnesiac John Doe actually tries psycho therapy to find out something about his past. I liked this segment and especially how it ended, which I won’t spoil. I thought it was a marvelous sign of the time …
Snoops: Twice Dead TV Show
Margaret Avery and Stephen Elliott guest starred in the Twice Dead episode of the short-lived TV series called Snoops. In fact, it didn’t even last an entire season. I’m not surprised because I was pretty bored by the whole thing. The only unique thing about this …
Private Eye: Nobody Dies in Chinatown
It seems every show has to do at least one story in their Mexican suburb and another in their Chinatown segment, and they are always about corruption and murder. Private Eye didn’t even bother to separate these shows. It’s last episode was done in the barrio of …
Fame: Tomorrow’s Farewell
The big plot of Fame: Tomorrow’s Farewell, which is the third episode of the musical drama series, deals with the School for the Performing Arts being evaluated by the school board. This lends to a lot of conflicts between the teaches and the board and it also presents …
Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer
Rudolph The Rednosed Reindeer is a tv show my kids and I have enjoyed for years.
My favorite character is Ernie the Elf who wants to be a dentist.
I also like Yukon Cornelius and of course, Rudolph.
I also like the misfit toys, when they are introducing themselves.
and the …

A character I haven’t talked about yet who …
Wonder Falls TV series
What they were thinking cancelling this amazing series after the fourth episode I don’t know. But if you can get your hands on it, I strongly recommend buying the full series of Wonder Falls on DVD.
Why watch something that was cancelled so prematurely? Because the people that were …
Dark Blue (The TV Series)
Dark Blue is a serious series on the lives of deep undercover police officers, so deep that even their fellow cops do not know about it. I think the title is so appropriate considering that the series deals with the dark side of life. I can feel the tension …
Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer: Series Premier TV Show
Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer is described as being so not your mother’s talk show. My initial reaction from watching their 2010 series premier is darn, it should be. These two women have apparently hosted a radio show for the past five years and now have …
Sea Hunt: Flooded Mine TV Show
I love the beginning of Sea Hunt: Flooded Mine because it starts out lightheartedly with diving expert Mike Nelson playing with a sea lion. We see the creature doing somersaults and just being a load of fun. That’s the reason for watching this series in my opinion, …
Fringe Season 4 Episode 3
After viewing the previous episodes of season 4 of Fringe I have voiced my concerns regarding the future of the show. It looked like they have stripped away the most intriguing and touching aspects of the show: they have wiped Peter Bishop out of existence, taking away the intense …
The Apprentice TV Show
The Apprentice is an interesting concept for a show. The show is a search for a new employee for Donald Trump. The contestants go through different competitions taht show their individual business sense and their ability to work well with others. Each week a new contestant is “fired” by …
Super Nanny show
Super Nanny (with child-care expert and author, Jo Frost) is a reality show that offers more than its share of redeeming value.
Imported from the UK, this program features a different family each week, each having its own set of child behavior problems. Jo spends some time observing the …
Doctor Who 2009 Special 2: The Waters of Mars
I had high hopes for this special. I really did. It has all the makings of a fantastic episode. You, once again, have the Doctor arriving at a fixed point, where he is seemingly helpless to do anything, which adds a nice level of tension. …
MacGyver: Target MacGyver
In this important episode of the MacGyver series, viewers meet Harry Jackson for the first time. Harry is MacGyver’s grandfather. Initially, the two are estranged, but after this, Harry shows up in many episodes over the series run. Harry is beautifully played by the talented John …
Law & Order SVU Episode: Execution

What I liked about this episode: I don’t know who played the inmate, but …
MacGyver: Fire and Ice
My biggest issue with the Fire and Ice episode of MacGyver is that it comes just three weeks after the two-part season three opener in which Elyssa Davalos starred as MacGyver’s once-dead and then-dead-again love. To have the same actress, with essentially the same look, return in such …
Star Trek: Beyond the Final Frontier TV Show
In 2007 for the 40th anniversary of this terrific, long lasting ideal, Star Trek: Beyond the Final Frontier aired on TV. I remember being excited about it because the two-hour event was hosted by Leonard Nimoy and because they were going to show a ton of Star Trek …
The Simpsons: Tree House of Horror XX
I have watched pretty much every Simpsons Tree House of Horrors episode since the first one and have been very disappointed with some of the more recent episodes. My biggest complaint is they often use some sort of movie spoof of a film that isn’t even a horror movie …
Out of This World: Evie’s Thirteenth Birthday TV Show
Evie’s Thirteenth Birthday is the very first episode of 1987’s Out of This World, a half-hour weekly show that I just loved. It’s science fiction mixed with comedy, and it has a super cast.
It’s Evie Garland’s 13th birthday, and she gets an unexpected surprise. As it turns …
Dr. Phil Show
Dr. Phil Show
I must warn you, this show is truly addictive. It might solve your problems, but it might turn you into a hopeless couch potato who prefers to sit down all day and solve life’s problems instead of causing the usual trouble.
In this show Dr. Philip McGraw is …
The Two Coreys: Episode 2.5 - Lost Boy
Just when you think everything is going well, it all goes to crap and it happens on the set of “The Lost Boys 2″, thanks to Corey Haim who begins by slurring and forgetting his lines as well as causing problems for almost everybody on set. His assistant Nelle …
Bones: The Finger in the Nest
It isn’t often that a fictional television show actually moves me to the point I’m almost in tears. But, last night’s episode of Bones, “The Finger in the Nest,” was one that made me feel like I had a knife stabbed into my heart.
I’m not even sure where to …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 2: Smith and Jones
With Donna Noble having passed on being the next companion, it’s up to the Doctor to find someone else to accompany him. Enter Martha Jones, a young med student who has a hectic family life. Between the three companions so far, I honestly like her the best. …
Don’t Stop Believing: Episode 5 TV Show
The fifth episode of Don’t Stop Believing was highly energetic and entertaining. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see the fourth week, which I regret.
Below are a few notes about the six choirs who performed in this episode:
Funky Little Choir — They were okay, but for me, they were …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Task Force X
“Task Force X” is the best episode thus far of season one of Justice League Unlimited. This was an episode teeming with suspense and strategy. The episode focuses on a few villians who are recruited by the United States government to break into the Justice League’s Watchtower …
Peep Show
This is such an amazing program, not really one for the mainstream but if you like alternative humor then this is for you.
The way its filmed is extremely clever as if viewed through the eyes of the person talking(or listening) and centers around flat mates Mark and Jez.
Its now …

In 1998’s From the Earth to the Moon - Part 1: Can We Do This?, Russians beat the Americans into space, rushing the United States to get a man in space in short order. Freedom 7 puts America on the space map and makes Alan Shepard a hero. …
South Park: Dead Celebrities
South Park likes to be up to date as far as the stories they cover in their episodes, and this episode seems to take it up a notch. The episode revolves around Ike seeing dead celebrities, and the ghost of Michael Jackson possessing him. It satires the fact that …
Beast Wars - Code of Hero
Beast Wars - Code of Hero is, quite easily, my favorite episode of the series and one of my favorite episodes of any show period. This episode is amazingly powerful and sends a powerful message to, admittedly a relatively young audience, although the show can really be appreciated and …
Ghost Hunters: Myrtles Plantation
Well, we started watching the second season of the show Ghost Hunters on DVD this past weekend and, so far, it doesn’t look a whole lot better than the first season, which was a disappointment considering I am a big fan of the series.
The first episode, however, isn’t too …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Chameleon
Synopsis: The SVU team tries to prove a prostitute (who killed a man in self defense when he attempted to rape her) is really a serial killer who has killed at least three others.
What I liked about this episode: The prostitute they captured is very manipulative and it was …
Columbo: By Dawn’s Early Light TV Show
In the day of Columbo on television, there were two British Patricks who were quite respected and who did a lot of TV work. They were frequently seen, and both did appearances on Columbo. The problem is that one was entertaining and the other turned me off …
Sirius Hair Nation
I am a huge fan of 1980’s hair bands. So when I bought satellite tv and it came with a huge list of music channels, I was extatic to find out that a whole channel was dedicate to music from big hair bands from the 80’s.
I have always …
Full Metal Alchemist
Full Metal Alchemist is a anime series that is one of the best shows I have seen. Don’t judge the series by its title, because when I first heard of it, I was wondering if it was good because of the title.
I have come to the conclusion that it …
Celebrity Fit Club
Celebrity Fit Club is another reality show that is featured on the music channel VH1. The show features 8 movies stars or singers who are overweight and who want to lose weight the right way. So for 90 days they decide to take on a boot camp …
Family Guy: Back to the Woods
Tonight was the first time I’ve seen the Family Guy episode “Back to the Woods” and I thought it was pretty funny.
This is essentially a sequel to the first episode involving actor James Woods; an episode that ended in Peter locking him in a wooden crate. This time, Woods …
The Singing Bee (CMT version)
In 2007, NBC launched a musical competition show called The Singing Bee. The host was Joey Fatone, who was hot off his comeback success in Dancing with the Stars. I really enjoyed that show, much better than rival Fox’s Don’t Forget the Lyrics. Unfortunately for me, …
Inspector Gadget: Race to the Finish
I got home last night and my daughter was watching an episode of Inspector Gadget, Race to the Finish.
I had a chance to watch it with her and will admit, it was pretty decent. Though there were some things that really didn’t make a whole lot of sense to …
