Intelligence (TV Series 2014)
Intelligence is a new TV series I decided to watch one evening after watching one of my other favorite shows that comes on an hour before. I had nothing else better to watch and wanted to occupy my time during the nine o’ clock hour. I had …
Columbo: Swan Song TV Show
Swan Song is a truly memorable episode of Columbo because it’s part musical. Well, not in the purest sense, but the main guest star is country legend, Johnny Cash. Cash plays Tommy Brown, a singer and husband of Edna Brown. Edna is played by the dynamic …
The Drew Carey Show TV show
The Drew Carey show is a situational half hour comedy series. I watched this show on and off for a couple of years and I neevr really got why it was so popular.

Justice League - “Twilight”, Part One is an episode that follows up on the events that played out in the series finale of Superman: The Animated Series. Although the episode only is a follow-up in the respect that this is the first time Darkseid appears since the finale, Superman …

This is one either a really good or a really bad episode depending upon your particular tastes. The central plot of this episode involves an underwater spider attacking the Seaview. Of course, this begs the question as to how the spider can breathe underwater and where did it come …

Psych: High Top Fade Out
Friday night’s episode of Psych was an OK episode but nothing that was overly impressive compared to other episodes from the series.
This one, which had a great introductory song sung by the group Boys II Men, focused a great deal on Gus and his past; including his college days …
Snickers Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich
My wife ran to Walgreens Saturday for a couple things and came back with some dessert; Snickers Brownie Ice Cream Sandwiches.
I’m not a huge fan of Snickers bars themselves. But, I do like Snicker’s Ice Cream and thought the idea of a sandwich made up of two brownies on …
The Fall Guy: The Silent Partner TV Show
I’m afraid that The Fall Guy: The Silent Partner just doesn’t do it for me. In fact, it turned me off the first time I saw it, back in April 1982. Aside from a boring script, I have never been able to stomach Mickey Gilley, not as …
Jeremiah: Firewall
Coming off the heels of the wonderful City of Roses episode, Firewall continues to add excellence in entertainment for the Jeremiah science fiction series. One of the good things about this series, which Luke Perry both stars in and acts as the executive producer of, is that we …

This was a very good episode of Smallville. It involved the return of Oliver Queen/Green Arrow who I love and was pleased to see is back. Lex paying some chick to do his dirty work and get him Green Arrow, Clark and Lana’s already strained relationship.
So the Green …
Legend of the Seeker
I had heard of the show Legend of the Seeker but honestly never took the time to watch it on TV. However, I did see it was available through our Netflix Instant watch and I decided to give it a try this weekend.
It wasn’t too bad.
The show is about …
NCIS
NCIS is a series about crime scene investigators working for the Navy. Unlike many of the other similar shows, the comic element is quite strong in NCIS.
The good: I really like the comedy. The setting is far-fetched, there is for example only one person in the lab and …

ABS-CBN’s Showbiz News Ngayon

Stargate SG1: Avalon Pts 1 and 2
This two parter introduced us to many new characters at SG1 while losing Richard Dean Anderson as General O’Neill. Even though he made a cameo during these episodes, it was not the same as having him around full time.

Glee: The Rocky Horror Glee Show TV Show
Glee: The Rocky Horror Glee Show opened with a couple of things grabbing my attention. In the opening credits, there was Meat Loaf of all people, and he was using his last name. I haven’t seen that one in a while.
Then the opening teaser with the big …

Mr. Monk Goes Camping
I will admit, Friday night’s episode of Monk was better than expected.
When I saw he was going camping, I immediately thought to myself “didn’t we do an episode like that before?” But, this time around, it was him helping Randy with a group of kids in the woods in …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Hugh Hefner TV Show
Well, even Hugh Hefner got into being The Man of the Week for this The Dean Martin Comedy Hour edition. A lot of these original roasts have been repackaged under the moniker of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roasts, the evolution of the roasting a bit murky for many. …
WWE NXT Television Show
I will admit that I am like many people who are disappointed with the current state of this “sports entertainment” company. Quite frankly, many of the episodes of “Monday Night Raw” and “Friday Night Smackdown” seem like reruns. The same three or four people compete for a …
MANswers
Have you ever asked yourself, how much testosterone and how little brain you can put into a show on national television? Well, MANswers shown on spike is where you get the answer.
In thirty minutes filled with breasts, weapons and sex you get to know everything a man wants to know …

When the other sister, Millicent, returns …
The X-Files: Season 3, Episode 2: Paper Clip
Concluding the three part extravaganza, this episode manages to maintain all of the things that worked about the previous episode, while toning down on the stuff that didn’t. The pseudo-philosophical narration is still here, but it doesn’t play as large a part as it did when Mulder was …
Doctor Who: Season 3, Episode 5: Evolution of the Daleks
The newly ascended Dalek Sec makes his debut, and pretty much proceeds to steal the show. At first, it doesn’t seem like too much has changed. Sec’s initital assessment of mankind is less than positive. On the contrary, he seems to see a lot of Dalek in …
Star Trek: Mirror, Mirror TV Show
Star Trek: Mirror, Mirror is terrific. It’s a more in depth look at parallel universes, something that was more lightly delved into during the first season of this series. What makes this so much fun is the interpretation of the characters. This isn’t just parallel, it’s like …
Spongebob Squarepants Season Three - Rock A Bye Bivalve

Touching Evil: Memorial
The first thing I enjoyed about the Memorial episode of Touching Evil was the time we got to see David Creegan (Jeffrey Donovan) spend with his ex-wife and daughters. I continue to enjoy that connection which is strong and very present. It’s the first time we really …
Black Gold: S3, Ep 4 TV Show
The biggest part of Black Gold’s 4th episode from season three was on new driller Ben’s first day on the job. The question was rather or not he could control the unruly bunch of crew and get them to do their jobs.
What is funny about that to me …
Professor Iris
One of my very favourite children’s shows when I was still just a small child was the show “Professor Iris”. It used to come on a local television channel in the early afternoons right after I would come home from school so I think I might have been in …
CHiPs: Pressure Point
Jon and Ponch (Larry Wilcox and Erik Estrada) end up on a special detail in CHiPs: Pressure Point from season two. The story evolves around the wealthy Arthur Forbinger, played with gusting exuberance by Rudy Vallee. Nothing Vallee does is low key, regardless of storyline. He …

This episode was really good, it had character development …
Greek: Season 1
When I first saw this new ABC Family television show advertising, I did not think I would enjoy it. I thought it would only be yet another silly and immature teenage television series which I at the time had no cares about like “Dawson’s Creek”, “Laguna Beach” and “Lincoln …

Fire on the Wing, episode 6 of Street Hawk, is probably my favorite of the series, and there’s a really good reason for that. One of my most enjoyed actresses appears in a main guest starring role. Kristen Meadows, who I had followed for years on One …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Lazarus TV Show
One of the shows presented during Have Gun - Will Travel’s fifth season on the air was entitled simply, Lazarus. It’s actually an appropriate title, based on what happens to the main guest character, Boise Peabody. Boise is a colorful character, played by Strother Martin.
Richard Boone, however, …
Gossip Girl
Gossip Girl is a television show that airs on the CW. It’s a show that is much talked about and yet lacking in ratings which made me question whether the show was good or had a cult following. In my opinion I think it is a good …
Here Come the Brides: A Man’s Errand
Here Come the Brides: A Man’s Errand is a cute show from the first season of this family drama. It’s a show that shows growth for the character of Jeremy Bolt (Bobby Sherman), the youngest of the Bolt brothers who own Bridal Veil Mountain. In this episode, Jeremy …
Call 911 TV show
There are all kinds of reality shows on today, and many are crime related. One of the series I’ve learned to enjoy over many of the others is Call 911, which airs on the Discovery ID channel.
