Stargate SG-1: Double Jeopardy was Michael Shanks’ debut as a director. It was a daunting task that pretty much took care of any desires he had to direct more. Shanks likes to understand all aspects of show business, which is why he’s dabbled in writing an SG-1 …

I only got to watch maybe 3/4ths of the show Bones last night (I missed the first few minutes of it) but, from what I saw, it wasn’t too bad of an episode.

For some odd reason, it’s really intriguing to watch truckers risking their lives as they haul gear over an ice road. That’s what we’ve seen for three plus seasons now on Ice Road Truckers.
This second episode of the fourth year of Ice Road Truckers had some sections that …

It’s amazing how many of the opening scenes to The Andy Griffith Show are classic moments, vintage scenes that are among the show’s very best. In fact, I’ll take it to a broader scope and say they are among the finest comedy that TV has to offer. …

Dancing with the Stars first results show began with something a bit different. We saw folks moving around backstage, some of which looked legit; still had to be staged and set up, but I liked it. I love behind the scenes things so that worked. Of …

I’m a huge Elisha Dushku fan, so it was great to see her character Faith finally make an appearance in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Faith, Hope & Trick.”
This one is an OK episode because I absolutely love the villain in this one and see potential in the …

If there’s anything that really stands out about the Buffy the Vampire Slayer Episode “Go Fish” it’s the fact it’s both very unbelievable (even for this series) and has some pretty disgusting moments in it.
OK, the fact they live on the Hell Mouth would probably give me some reason …

2 funny episodes in a row. I’m going to go ahead and take that as a good sign. It took a while, but these characters are starting to step up. Oh, I doubt they’ll ever be as great as the original crew, but no show has …

The co-producer …

I think Family Guy is a great show because it offers mindless animated comedy on the surface, and thoughtful cultural satire upon deeper inspection. I can enjoy an episode of Family Guy whether I’m in the mood for witty, clever commentary or simply wicked slapstick humor.
My …

Along Came Joey is another episode from season one of Hawaii Five-O that I just don’t like all that much, and the reason is that it surrounds boxing, and I’m not a boxing fan. It’s a violent sport, and I don’t enjoy watching people banging on each other, …

I’m almost afraid to admit that I’ve been watching The Phone. After all, it’s on MTV and it’s from the mind of Justin Timberlake. Now that’s scary!
The Phone is an overly dramatic program that has made stunt people very happy. The stunt bill must be enormous for …

Centennial: The Winds of Death is really an intense and emotional episode of this very long mini-series based on the novel by James Michener. It’s one that I think a lot of people can even identify with today. It’s almost a century old take on today’s home …

Like all true blood episodes this one was filled with a little bit for everyone. We had violence, death, homosexuality, nudity, drug and alcohol abuse, sex and lots of blood. No episode of this show is boring or predictable in any way. That is why I …

That was a really, but really boring episode. I did not enjoy it at all. I don’t know what they were thinking when they were writing it. Not only that nothing really happens in there, but the whole story just is not quite believable.
In the first story line, …
