For one of the few times that I can remember in this show, the opening of That Girl actually references something that happened in the show just prior to it. Ann Marie and Don Hollinger meet Harry Cook, played by William Schallert, at a party. He recollects …

Angry hearts rage, as our own base instincts create the most terrifying weapon from within our own souls. In darkness or in doubt, some times the brotherly love of friends can even defy death in an effort to manipulate their affections across in the most pained of ways. On …

One of my very small pet peeves about Stargate SG-1 is that oftentimes in the early years, if there was a child’s story, it was always Richard Dean Anderson’s character who had the poignant connection with the child. The only exception was Cassandra, the alien child Sam had …

Everyone is talking about that gray-haired singing sensation Taylor Hicks. He’s been compared to just about every blue-eyed soul singer including Michael McDonald (of the Doobie Bros.) and even legendary Ray Charles. I am totally enamored with this young man. Yes, he’s only 29 years old, …

This episode of Ghost Hunters “Houses of the Holy” was somewhat interesting but not because they found anything overly impressive.
I think the best part of this episode, which involves the TAPS team investigating the home of a religious leader, is the discussion of how religious beliefs and the paranormal …

Have we forgotten about Willow lately? It seems that she doesn’t have too much of a role in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes lately. She’s there, just not very prominent.
Take the episode No Place Like Home. Buffy is starting to feel like something weird is going on at …

The problem with “The Office” is that in many episodes the awkward situation it feels too forced. This episode is the exception. Michal starts this episode with a rare moment of outsmarting someone. He tells everyone in the office they will have to stay late so not to make …

Kate Winslet on Ellen was a good watch. She was dressed in a black coat or jacket and she looked particularly decent and sweet. Though she has a British accent, she was such a down-to-earth person and spoke about her husband and friendship with Leo very lovingly. …

CSI Season 3 Episode 8- Snuff
This episode shows the investigation of two separate cases (and this time, they are not connected. Wow, that’s a change). The first case is absolutely fantastic- it investigates the brutal murder of a porn actress caught on tape for a snuff movie. It is …

Private Eye: Blue Hotel Part 1 is a remarkably engaging episode of this series, which is set back in the mid-to-late fifties. It stars Michael Woods as Jack Cleary, a one-time cop who is now a private eye. Working with him is Jack Betts, a young man …

Hello, I never actually expected that I would write about glee, never in my entire life actually, but this episode was astonishing. Now, let me tell you why this episode was better than all of the other ones. I know that Cory Monteith[Finn] died and that is a sad …

From Jake and the Fatman’s fourth season, It Never Entered My Mind served as the first instance when viewers were graced with seeing the multi-layered character of Dr. Mark Sloan. Sloan would go on to be the center of a few made for TV movies and then ultimately …

It’s a common piece of advice, a cliche even, that things aren’t always what they seem. That’s the first lesson of Stargate: Infinity: Who Are You? which is the children’s animated version of the hit science fiction series, Stargate SG-1, only there’s very little that really resembles that …

Will and Grace is a sitcom on TV. It is about a couple of gay guys and their friends. I personally dislike this show and feel that it demonstrates a lack of writing ability for the TV writers today. They seem to have run out of ideas for decent …

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.
“Hush” just isn’t a gem in Buffy’s catalogue of episodes, but a terrific little piece of …

Masquerade: Sleeper aired in 1984 and had some nice elements to the story. This is a spy adventure series where the National Intelligence Agency recruits every day citizens to carry out missions. The idea came from Mr. Lavender, played by Rod Taylor. Working with him are …

Stargate SG-1: Serpent’s Song is an interesting entry in the SG-1 second season. Peter Williams returns as Apophis, seeking asylum from the Tau’ri of all people. Unable to leave the injured Goa’uld behind, SG-1 brings him back to Earth. Then things really start to heat up, …

24 is a drama series on television. I started watching a few years and was immediately hooked on to the show. Basically it’s about Jack bauer an agent at CTU - the Counter Terrorist Unit and the first season starts off about his family when his …

Talk about poorly placed timing, the powers that be at Stargate SG-1 made a very bad choice. My understanding is that the episode called Past and Present was supposed to be either earlier or later in the season. After being tossed around the season schedule, it had …

From February 21, 1973, this episode of The Dick Cavett Show featured Jack Benny, Bill Cosby, and Joe Frazier. It began with the usual monologue, which quickly reminds me why Cavett didn’t make it long run. He’s too dry, which fits his more serious and political style. …

Season two begins with M*A*S*H: Divided We Stand, which in many ways seems to be a quick study guide to the uninitiated of this military comedy. The opening has General Clayton (Herb Voland) discussing the personnel of the 4077th. This essentially provides an overview of the …

The great thing about “My Name is Earl” is that mixed in with all the humor there are real messages about responsibility. One of the recurring themes is that small things that you do can have major effects on people’s lives.
On the episode “Stole Beer from a Golfer” they …

Harper’s Island Episode 9 is more exciting than the previous one. This one is more dark and mysterious for me. The fact that the killer is lurking out there and anytime is trying to kill and get more victims make this a more exciting watch than the previous …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive: To Kill a Princess is another standard fare for this show that really wanted to be Indiana Jones in Malaya. Instead, it’s zookeeper with an overzealous love life. In fact, what began as one of those nice, undercurrent love stories between stars Bruce …

Heroes Season 1 Episode 2-Don’t Look Back
This was another great episode in the amazing series heroes. A good introduction and first episode, the characters in the story continue with the process of self exploration in finding out some confusing truths about them, their lives, and their abilities.
New …

The Ghostbusters find themselves battling the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. Oddly enough, they weren’t quite the menaces that I had hoped they would be. They don’t really do anything. We hear talk of chaos erupting all over the world, but we don’t see much of …

I think that this, even more so than the two previous episodes, acts as a proto-typical X-Files episode. It has all the things that X-Files fans love. It’s far more atmospheric than the other two and has a stronger story to tell compared to the other two.
It …

Whoopi: The Fat and the Frivolous is not a favorite outing of this series which stars the very colorful Whoopi Goldberg. Whoopi also developed this NBC series which aired during the 2003-2004 TV season. In the show, her character of Mavis Rae is a one time singer …

Nash Bridges: Gun Play from 1997 had some good things about it that made it worth watching. First of all, there’s star, Don Johnson who plays Nash Bridges. He’s a cop again, just like on Miami Vice, only this time he’s in San Francisco and he’s an …

I had never heard of this show until I ran across it one Sunday evening. I was amazed that these ER stories were so graphic. I was also surprised by the light tone that the show seemed to have. With such weird and shocking …

Castle Films presented a cartoon version of Simple Simon. This now vintage cartoon from the golden age of TV begins very lively with the children’s song about Simple Simon. Then we learn everyone is going to the fair, and that’s where the story goes.
While I loved the …

Law and Order SVU Season 2 Episode 4- Legacy
It was a really great episode, it was very touching and emotional. This is the kind of story that really makes you think about things that you take for granted in your life. Even if you’re a cold kind …

M*A*S*H: Sometimes You Hear the Bullet is a masterpiece edition of this show in my opinion. I clearly recall watching this show the first time it aired. In fact, I taped it on a cassette recorder when it was rerun because I thought it was just that …

This was an interesting episode …

Well, that was an episode of Mork & Mindy I haven’t seen before. Mork Goes Erk is a great episode and one I would recommend watching if you’ve never seen the show before.
The great thing about this episode is it creates the possibility of Mork and Mindy having to …

Directed by actor Ben Gazzara, who doesn’t appear in the show at all, Columbo: A Friend in Deed has always been one of the outings of this crime drama that I just don’t like. In the first place, none of the guest stars are appealing to me, especially …

Rod Serling introduced this episode of Night Gallery by saying that he was considered to be the Howard Cosell of the crypt. That was an odd start, but it makes sense, in an odd way. Then we get to the evening’s entertainment, a half hour vehicle written …

Stargate SG-1: Maternal Instinct is an excellent outing for the science fiction series, though it’s not a huge personal favorite. Not all the best shows are always a hit with every viewer.
I think the reason Stargate SG-1: Maternal Instinct isn’t a huge hit for me is that it’s …

In this episode, the Simpson family go to the renaissance fair where Homer embarrasses Lisa and she wanders off and comes across a fortune teller’s booth. Lisa is sceptical at first until the fortune teller tells the names of her family members, convinced, Lisa is then told her future …

This episode of Carpoolers starts out with the guys in a meeting about sexual harassment. While they are in the seminar, one of the guys starts talking sexually about the woman giving the speech, which is the exact opposite of what you would expect, but that’s what Laird does.
The …

The first thing I noticed when I watched The Fugitive: The Iron Maiden again was that it guest starred Richard Anderson. Anderson was one of TV’s most used actors from the 60’s to the 80’s. He was on absolutely everything at one point at another, and like …

Law and Order SVU is a very depressing show at times, but the acting is superb. There are a few things that I don’t like about the show but overall it is one of my favorite shows on TV. One of the main issues that the show has is …
