My Life - Episode 1 - My Life
This was a great day to start my story about my life and all the people you will know as time ticks on. Days and months which pass and yes, even years. But no I am not going into lots of detail throughout my story. I will tell you my …
The Twilight Zone: Five Characters in Search of an Exit TV Show
Unfortunately, The Twilight Zone: Five Characters in Search of an Exit is not a show I’m that crazy about. In fact, I most always change the channel once I see it. It just doesn’t impress me, though I admit the reveal is interesting. Actually, the ending …
Columbo: The Complete Sixth and Seventh Season DVD set
Columbo: The Complete Sixth and Seventh Season DVD set is comprised of three DVDs, just like earlier seasons. Consumers need to remember that Columbo was part of the Mystery Movie lineup and tended to air just once a month during a season. As time passed, even that …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Time Lock TV Show
From 1967, the eighth episode of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea’s fourth season is called Time Lock. It’s an okay episode that has some entertainment value going for it. The crux of the hour long science fiction show is that Admiral Harriman Nelson, as played …
How I Met Your Mother Season - Shelter Island
This episode originally aired on October 20, 2008. It is not as funny as the other episodes but it does help to move the plot ahead. It may feel a little boring at times. It concludes the romance between Ted and Stella.
The break-up between Ted and Stella has been …
The Carol Burnett Show: Gloria Swanson TV Show
The Carol Burnett Show with special guest star Gloria Swanson was from the seventh season of the hit comedy and variety series. Burnett called her ‘Miss Swanson’ throughout. They actually showed a clip from a past episode where Burnett plays Nora Desmond, which is supposed to be …
Amaerica’s Funniest Home Videos
It seems like Amaerica’s Funniest Home Videos has been around forever and it almost has. It started back in 1989 and has been around in one form or another since then. While I do not watch it on a regular basis, after all how many times can …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Let’s Play Poison TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Let’s Play Poison aired in February 1992, and to be honest, I thought it was going to be a lot better than it proved to be. In fact, what began with some potential for real intrigue and storytelling ended up being a huge disappointment …

As the dark yet mellow tunes of an sax playing its cold yet truthful notes to an cursed city covered in the eternal darkness of an bitter cruel winter that devourers at the minds of those who survived battles of the past and present. On Cowboy Bebop, even the …
Devices and Desires - Part 2
Part 2 of Devices and Desires continues the murder mystery that is the center of this P.D. James based novel. As always, it’s Roy Marsden starring as the intelligent and intuitive Inspector Adam Dalgliesh. The neat part about this particular story is that Dalgliesh is actually on …
Angel Episode 1.2: Lonely Hearts
Being only the second episode of the series. It stands to reason that this episode is more straight forward. A serial killer (demonic of course) is killing people using a local singles bar as a buffet table.
I think they overdid the whole “we’re not in …
Stargate SG-1: Disclosure
Once every season as a rule, there is a clip show done on Stargate SG-1 which essentially saves on money. It’s a filler show, with little new action. Stargate SG-1: Disclosure was the season 6 clip show, and in this case, the only regular cast member to …
Keeping Up With the Kardashians - Family Feud
Surprising , I’m a huge fan of Keeping Up With The Kardashians on E!. I really think these girls have some serious issues. So the feud started when the girls went to pick up Kim’s Bentley at the shop..and her sister Kloe felt that Kim wasnt defending her when …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Brother’s Keeper TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Brother’s Keeper, the 33rd show from season 4 of this western program, was written by Jay Simms. I don’t often mention the writers, but I liked the way he constructed this episode. It was dramatic and somewhat whimsical at the same time. …

Adam-12: Mary Hong Loves Tommy Chen
I have to admit that I’m not a big fan of Adam-12: Mary Hong Loves Tommy Chen. It’s one of those Chinese gang rumble stories. The twist in this one is that Tommy Chen is a cop. He’s been injured and can’t get his news to …
Law and Order: CI Season 1, Episode 13
Though Paris Hilton has barely made a blip on most people’s radar screen when this episode aired, it is clear that the main character is based on her. We have a spoiled brat of a celebrity daughter, who does little more than do drugs, drink, party, and sleep with …
Diagnosis Murder: Call Me Incontestable TV Show
From 1995, Diagnosis Murder: Call Me Incontestable takes on the world of dating outfits. This one is called Perfect Couple and after a friend of Mark’s is murdered, the investigation leads to that business.
Here are a few highlights of this show from my perspective:
–There’s a bit when Mark …
BBQ Pitmasters: Season 2 Premier TV Show
The second season of BBQ Pitmasters premiered this week. I only caught a few token scenes of this series last year, so this is really the first complete show of the show that I’ve seen. I do recognize some of the faces, though, including judge Myron Nixon, …
Oprah Winfrie Show
Two years ago, when Metro TV broadcasted “Oprah Winfrie Show” for the first time, I didn`t have any idea why people like this program so much. Then, I tried to prove it by sitting nicely in front …
It’s Pimpin Pimpin (Katt Williams comedy DVD)
I am a pretty big fan of Katt Williams. At first when I saw him in the Friday movie with Ice Cube, I thought that he was just one of those actors who could easily be pigeonholed into one of those African American comic relief roles. …
Hawaii Five-O: Once Upon a Time: Part I
Hawaii Five-O: Once Upon a Time: Part I was an enticing tale about Steve McGarrett’s sister, Mary Ann Whalen, whose child is dying from cancer. At the request of his brother-in-law, Tom Whalen, McGarrett flies to Los Angeles and discovers that Mary Ann has become convinced that Dr. …

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
I cry every time, every single time I watch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, and I’ve watched it hundreds of times over the decades. I own the video and I rarely miss it when it airs on TV. What a classic, and one that pulls at your heart …
Fact or Faked Paranormal Files (series)
I’m a sucker for horror movies and have been ever since I can remember. I started watching some horror movies that would frighten most adults in the worst way before I reached age five, and had read most of Stephen King’s novels by the time I was eleven. Therefore, …
Boston Legal Season 2 Episode 1
There were new casts that were introduced like Denise Bauer, Garrett Wells and Sarah Holt.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Episode 1.16: The Hidden Enemy
The sixteenth episode in the series, “The Hidden Enemy”, is a few steps up from the horrid “Trespass” which preceded it. This episode is actually a prequel to “The Clone Wars” film itself and explains why the forces on the planet of Christophsis (which happens to look a lot …
Adam-12: Extortion
The fourth season of Adam-12 got under way on September 15, 1971 with an episode called Extortion. It’s a good start for the police drama which starred Martin Milner and Kent McCord.
What I love about it first of all is that it starts out with the banter that …
Beast Wars - Other Victories
Beast Wars - Other Victories is the third to last episode of the series and loosely leads up to the series finale. For example, in this episode, the Predicon base is destroyed by the arrival of Tigerhawk and in the next episode, Megatron orders Inferno, Quickstrike and Waspinator to …
The Twilight Zone: Long Distance Call TV Show
Not a favorite, The Twilight Zone: Long Distance Call is an eerie episode about an egotistic, possessive grandmother who believes she lost her son to his wife and who has every intention of taking her beloved grandson with her to the grave. There’s no love there; that’s perverted.
Before …
The Veil: Vision of Crime TV Show
Boris Karloff both hosts and plays a part in this early anthology series, The Veil. This episode is called Vision of Crime and tells the story of a man who sees the murder of his brother while on a trip overseas. When he returns to America, he …
How Clean is your House?
I enjoy ‘How Clean is your House?’ mainly because I find it very motivating when it comes to cleaning my own house. In each episodes, the team visits what the voice-over man calls a ‘filth offender’, someone living in a revoltingly dirty house. Although you or I …
The Andy Griffith Show: Runaway Kid TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: Runaway Kid is another winner from the first season of this brilliant family comedy. There’s a lot of importance in this one placed on the father and son relationship between Andy Taylor and little Opie.
I love how the story opens, with Opie and his …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Dark Ages
One of the interesting things about the earlier episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the fact you really never get to learn too much about the librarian Giles and his past.
The episode The Dark Ages changes that.
This was actually a very good episode both because we learn Giles …
The Simpsons Season 8 episode 6

Mission: Impossible: Banshee TV Show
The ninth episode of the second season of the new Mission: Impossible was called Banshee. I loved the reincarnation of this series. With Peter Graves on board once again as Jim Phelps, it had quality. I also loved the original series star Greg Morris had his …
M*A*S*H: Letters
M*A*S*H: Letters is a wonderful episode from season nine. It’s a slow time at the 4077th, so the kids from Hawkeye Pierce’s (Alan Alda) home town of Crapapple Cove, send letters for the personnel to answer. Hawkeye hands them out with the regulars are getting multiples to …
TV Show: The Amazing Race
The Amazing Race is one of my favourite shows. It’s a yearly series on CTV, Wednesdays at 7 pm central time. This season, teams have to travel across the world and follow the directions precisely to each task that they do. The winners at the end of the race …
TNT’s “The Closer”: season six episode two “Help Wanted”
After the relatively uninspired premiere episode of The Closer’s sixth season, I wasn’t exactly expecting fireworks from its second episode. However, as soon as I saw Mary McDonnell’s surname on guest star list, I was hopeful for one of the better episodes, and I was definitely onto something, since …
The L Word
What can I say about this series that will not offend women? Guys love watching attractive women performing lesbian sex. When the scenes are hot, there is an enjoyable time had by all. When the women talk about personal relation problems, this series turns into a …
Centennial: The Crime
The most emotional portion of Centennial: The Crime is the demise of Oliver Seccombe. He was an interesting character because he did do some bad things, such as running out on Levi and Elly Zendt, leaving them to fend for themselves; , claiming not to be responsible for …
Serial Experiments Lain Episode 1: Weird
This episode is titled “Weird” and boy does it live up to the name. It’s not as imcomprehensible as I thought it would be, but it’s still pretty bizarre.
For the first seven minutes or so we don’t even have a plot, just a seemingly random collection of mini-scenes. …
Beast Wars - The Spark
Beast Wars - The Spark is an episode that introduces a new character to the series. It is the third character to be introduced, and sadly, one that never really received a whole lot of attention before disappearing along with another of the recently introduced characters in the season …

Beast Wars - Coming of the Fuzors, Part 1
Beast Wars - Coming of the Fuzors, Part 1 picks up almost right where the previous episode left off. In this episode, two stasis pods, both of which were damaged in the crash, produce two new Transformers that are quite unlike any of the previous Transformers to emerge from …
Family Guy TV Episode: Mr. Saturday Knight
I have seen bits and pieces of the Family Guy episode “Mr. Saturday Knight” before. But last night was the first time I actually had a chance to watch the entire thing. And, overall, I think it was a pretty good episode.
Basically, Peter is feeling depressed because he hates …

“The Tower of Terror” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. This is the second episode in a three episode story arc that’s focused on Ash claiming his third badge. In order to beat Sabrina, Ash and company travel to Lavender Town and the Pokemon Tower, where ghost …
M*A*S*H: As You Were
M*A*S*H: As You Were was another one of the second season entries for this wonderful series that just didn’t really hit my funny bone very much. There’s one central bit that I like a lot and enjoy, but a lot of the little subplots don’t really do much, …
