So I went to the Shaw Cable office which …

This VH1 segment was really interesting. I love it when VH1 does shows that reminisce over the 1990s or 1980s. They always pick out the most hilarious aspects of pop culture. This segment focused on celebrities who were the hottest things in the 1990s. Topping …

Stargate SG-1: Absolute Power is an excellent show, though not a personal favorite. It’s another one of the stories that deals with Abydos remnants and references to Oma DeSala, whom I strongly detest. So, while it’s good, it’s not a favorite.
That said, Michael Shanks gets to utilize those …

Halloween must be coming up because they are showing re-runs of past Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors episodes.

These commercials are soooo funny. I like the one where the three guys are at a hot party. At first, because you see the first one wearing a white shirt and black tie, you think that he is just a guest. But by the time …

M*A*S*H: Tea and Empathy just isn’t a show that held my interest, not even with all of the various storylines that made up the episode.

Well what can I say about the TV show Scrubs. I have to say that this is one of the worst TV shows I have seen in my life. I don’t know if it is because I hate hospitals or because of the bad acting but I hate it. The …

This is an episode for the shippers. Now, Aang and Katara have been shipped, pretty much since episode 1, but for the first time in a while, their relationship comes to the forefront of an episode.

Ask any Buffy fan what his or her favourite episodes of Buffy are and you’ll undoubtedly find “Hush” cropping up a fair bit. And, it’s really no surprise why; this episode is astounding.

I think Desperate Housewives: The One Where Gabrielle and Carlos Kill Accidentally Gabrielle’s husband on the boat is on one of the episodes of Season 4. But I know it’s the earlier episodes, perhaps 7 or 8.
Gabrielle’s husband, the politician is very suspicious of Gabrielle and this …
