As I mentioned in an earlier review, I recently started re-watching the first season of the show Bones; at least the episodes I haven’t seen before.
One of the episodes was The Man in the SUV, which turned out to be a pretty decent one.
This is one of the first …

Stargate SG-1: The Fourth Horseman Part 1 has a lot of drama in it, some of which I liked and some of which I didn’t. The highlights, on both sides, include:
–We start off with more basketball playing. It’s just another sign that Daniel isn’t the Daniel of …

Star Trek: The Corbomite Maneuver is one of my all time favorite Star Trek episodes of any of the series. It’s the essence of what Star Trek, and space exploration, is all about. That’s why it’s so wonderful.
Though this show aired in November of its first season …

If I ever want to feel better about the mess in our house, all I need to do is turn on the television and watch the show Clean House.
Each week, Clean House visits another home that has become such a disaster area, you have to wonder why the people …

The choir began nine months until the world choir competition in China, and in this second hour long show, viewers find out whether or not this group of amateur high school singers cut the muster and are accepted to participate in this event. The choir master, Gareth Malone, …

I love Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. I am 28 so sometimes I feel a little silly watching it, but I can’t help it. It’s cute and campy and I remember Melissa Joan Hart from ‘Clarissa Explains it All’, from Nickelodean. I think she’s cute. It’s one of those shows …

Mark Gaitiss is the scribe behind this outing for the Doctor and Rose and brings the revival of Doctor Who some real weight as he moves away from the more light and frothy opening episodes and delivers a solid, spooky horror tale set in the murky streets of Victorian …

I was not a fan of CSI from the beginning up until my uncle who, according to his wife was said to be a devotee of this program. In one of our conversations, she retorted “my husband never misses an episode of CSI and makes it a point to …

The Mrs. Bradley Mysteries continue with a murder mystery called Laurels Are Poison. The beautiful and alluring Diana Rigg stars as Adela Bradley, and believe me, there is nothing conventional about her. Adela is as out there as a woman could be in the early 1900’s and …

This episode opens with a bunch of villagers finding Daniel by the stargate on their planet. Seems Daniel has descended without anything including his memories and his clothes. While this made many female viewers happy, Michael Shanks admitted that although the idea looked good on paper, playing …

With the lack of funny shows on television, I sometimes have to go back a few years in time and rely heavily on re-runs of shows from the 80s and 90s.
One of the shows that is on in syndication and never gets old is Home Improvement.
Tim Allen hasn�t had …

Death Note Episode 15 begins with Light giving Misa instructions in order to throw off the Task Force trying to find Kira. She does as he asks and sends a video to the police, hoping to throw them off. And instead L deduces what Kira’s strategy is …

The problem with M*A*S*H: White Gold is that it’s too much of a vehicle for guest star Edward Winter who returns as Colonel Flagg, the rather odd CIA agent who often ends up at the 4077th unit. I was really surprised by how much time Winter got, even …

The last few House episodes have been kind of sucky considering Wilson has been AWOL from the show following his falling out with House. So, it was great to see an episode “Birthmarks” that finally brings him back.
In a way, this was a bit of a depressing episode because …

This is the beginning of the series, and the whole story is being introduced in a very clever way. It really made the story look appealing. But there was this feeling that it was going to be some clever spy-like story where the hero outsmarts everyone and manages to …

Celebrity Apprentice - Season 2, Episode 2 brings up one very important question — why is Dennis Rodman participating in this process? He has shown no real desire to be there, even though he talks like he wants to be. It makes no sense. In this …

Over the last couple of years, I’ve watched The Closer somewhat irregularly, whenever I would accidentally catch it on TV. I’ve seen some better and worse episodes, and I’ve overall enjoyed the focus of the show, away from the forensic stuff and on the honest-to-goodness old school detective work …

This review is for the semi-finals of Australia’s Dancing with the Stars in which the four final couples each competed with 3 dances. Below are my thoughts on how this evening went.
Alex - I like her, but the first dance was the judges’ choice of the Jive, and …

The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson is a late night show. This show usually comes on the same time Conan does, well I guess it would be the Jimmy Fallon show now. I love Craig Ferguson since the first time I caught his show. He doesn’t always have …

I’ve never seen the Sherlock Holmes TV series that starred Ronald Howard before, so this is very new to me. I have seen several different actors in the role of the famous London detective, but none has ever topped Basil Rathbone. From the first episode of this …

Highway Patrol: Hot Dust, a third season episode from 1957, was quite interesting to watch. It concerned a young man named Harry Wells. He accidentally spills a container of radioactive material and then he panics. While he picks up the canister and places it in a …

I’ve seen plenty of ads for the show The Starter Wife and I’ve always been a big Debra Messing fan. But, last night was the first opportunity I’ve had to actually sit down and watch the show.
After finally doing so, I have to say it was good but not …

‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, You’re Under Arrest is the second Christmas episode for That Girl, and I have to applaud that they did it. So many shows just do one holiday show and then rerun it every year, so I was glad to see a second straight …

I’m not really sure if viewers have known this before or not, but it was news to me. In Death of an Expert Witness - Part 2, we learn that Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden) is a poet. This does become a side point in the …

I wasn’t a huge fan of the show Ghost Hunters Academy last year. But, because there wasn’t much else on TV last night, I did decide to sit down to watch the Season 2 premiere of it.
It still isn’t my favorite show. But, I did see enough changes in …

In February 1962, the 21st episode of Have Gun - Will Travel’s fifth season aired. The show was titled Dream Girl and guest starred Peggy Ann Garner as Ginger Adams. She’s the girl Paladin (Richard Boone) and a young miner named Buddy Webster are trying to find. …

I remember watching Jennifer Aniston on Ellen and it was really cool. Jen is very humble and natural and she has this great hair, even years before. I think it was a long-time episode come to think of it now, because at that time she was still married to …

A Man Called Kane is the last episode of the second season of the 90-minute western, The Virginian. I wasn’t really crazy about, which surprised me a little. I’ve said before that growing up I didn’t like this show at all. I found The Virginian to …

This episode reunites Tom Everett Scott and Billy West, who voiced Booster Gold and Skeets respectively in an episode of “Justice League Unlimited”. They reprise the roles here and it plays to a similar effect.
The characters play off each other the same way and Booster is …

“M.A.D. Trap” is an episode from the first season of the “Inspector Gadget” television series. This is one of those episodes of the series that uses the elimination of Inspector Gadget as the object of the story, as opposed to utilizing the two plot approach where M.A.D. is attempting …

Before I went into high school, my brother and I were tired of watching local television and wanted cable television. Many of our friends had it, as well as many of our relatives. However, our parents chose not to get it as they felt that it would interfere with …

The Virginian: Run Away Home is the second show I’ve noticed that was redone several years later as an episode of Alias Smith and Jones (ASAJ), which was a favorite show of mine, called The Girl in Boxcar #3. I recall an article done during that time that …

When I first saw the Mork & Mindy episode “Mork’s Best Friend” I was just a kid and thought it was a great show. After seeing it again today, I have to say, by today’s standards, it’s a bit lame.
Mork adopts a caterpillar as a pet and treats it …

This Christmas special picks up right where “Last of the Time Lords” (or Time Crash if you count that short special”) left off, with the now companionless Doctor crashing into the Titanic. Well, it’s not THE Titanic, but a tourist space cruiser that just happens to resemble the …

I thought this episode of the popular 90s television show “The X-Files” was one of the more interesting ones which I think I could watch again. In fact, I didn’t find it creepy or overly weird but I just thought that the plot itself was interesting, so when I …

The season ten premier of Smallville was called Lazarus, and it was a good one.
I don’t watch this show regularly, but since I watched the season 9 finale and since I’ll be watching the second episode of season 10 (both because the shows guest star Michael Shanks as Hawkman), …

What is really fun about this episode of Emerald Point N.A.S. are two face offs. The first is with regular Dennis Weaver as Rear Admiral Tom Mallory facing off against guest star Robert Loggia, who plays a Russian admiral. They are discussing some close encounters that have …

The 1985 crime drama series, Street Hawk presents as its third episode, The Adjuster, a show which guest stars Marjoe Gortner. I’m not a fan of Gortner’s, to be honest. He’s a little too quirky and off-kilter for my tastes. I’ve always been surprised that his …

I was very disappointed in the The 82nd Academy Awards, especially in the In Memoriam segment. I’m condemning this portion of the broadcast as it outraged me more than anything else on the program. The memoriam section, those few minutes when the Academy acknowledges those who …

Hawaii Five-O: One for the Money is a psychological drama surrounding one family. It’s never been a favorite of mine, but it does have some good acting in it.
Jeanette Nolan guest stars as the wealthy aunt of two men, played by Farley Granger and Paul Collins. Collins …

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 …

“Return to Green Acres” is a reunion special that features characters from the 1960s sitcom, “Green Acres”. I love the television show because the humor is so off the wall and the characters are so memorable and distinctive. When I learned
that a reunion special had been made, I eagerly …

I often wonder as I watch House how good the medicine in the show really is. I can recognize that it is unconventional but is that because it’s dangerous or because it’s fake. It doesn’t really matter most of the time, but I do wonder.
This episode was about an 18 …

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 …

Homer Simpson once said it is better to watch something than do something. That piece of wisdom comes from the episode Tennis the Menace and, given the content of that episode, makes some sense.
I actually like this episode. It’s much funnier than you think it would be. Homer takes …

The 21st episode of Sea Hunt’s fourth and final year on television was caused Quicksand. It opens with Mike Nelson diving with a hard hat diver who suddenly disappears. Nelson looks everywhere, but can’t find him. All he can find is a broken air hose.
