CSI Season 3 Episode 9 Blood Lust
This was a very good episode. I was a bit uneasy with the episode. I don’t know if it was some part of the story, or one of the characters that made me feel that way. But it could be just the sight of spilled guts on the road …

Ghost Hunters: Hartford Conservatory
Wow, that was a boring Ghost Hunters episode; “Hartford Conservatory.” How in the world did this show last beyond its second season with episodes like this one almost every single week.

Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: 9-16-10 TV Show
Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn from the 16th of September, 2010 focused on Breakfast Favorites, using the perspective of how easy it can be to make homemade products. The thing is, it wasn’t easy for me and this was probably my least favorite episode of the opening …
House show
We have cable tv and one of the better series on cable is a show called House.
House is a medical drama series, and although I am not into medical program on the whole this one is rather good. Hugh Laurie plays House. He is a disgruntled doctor, who suffers …
That Girl: The Mailman Cometh
There’s a slight problem with That Girl: The Mailman Cometh from season two. I suspect it was filmed earlier than it aired, and the reason I believe that is because in an earlier episode from this second season, Ann Marie either received a phone call or made one …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers?
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Who Watches the Watchers is an episode that might seem somewhat offending and close-minded to some, while others will applaud its stance and attitude on the delicate subject of religion. In this episode, Captain Picard remarks that a culture that believes in Gods …
Smallville: Absolute Justice - Part 2
Smallville: Absolute Justice - Part 2 continues the introduction of the Justice Society of America into the Smallville lore. This second part was directed by star Tom Welling, who frankly didn’t act all that much during this movie-like presentation. In fact, Allison Mack and Justin Hartley (as …
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno
Most of us “Baby Boomers” grew up watching “The Tonight Show” when it was hosted by the inimitable Johnny Carson. Johnny was classy, witty and talented enough to make even the dullest guest look fascinating. Whenever you heard the show’s theme song start, you’d feel so excited, …
Mrs. Columbo: A Riddle for Puppets TV Show
The third outing of the short lived series, Mrs. Columbo, was called A Riddle for Puppets. Now this show has a few things going against it which led to its quick demise. The most obvious is that Kate Mulgrew, who stars in the title role, just …

Dog The Bounty Hunter Show
I have a strange and most likely unhealthy fascination with this show. The scenery is definitely part of it (Hawaii is beautiful, and an interesting locale for this sort of show). But it is Dog and his family that make the show so unusual and unique.
Dog is …
Tough Love (VH1 show)
“These reality shows are getting out of hand,” I used to say. But then this one reality show came along and focused on the women of the world who are responsible for their own dating failures. At first I wondered whether they would pick …

Super Mario World - A Little Learning
Super Mario World - “A Little Learning” is not one of my favorite episodes of the series. That is actually an understatement as I really do not care for this episode. The plot simply did not quite interest me. In this episode, Princess Toadstool opens a school and the …
Poltergeist
Years ago, I got to watch Poltergeist when it first came out. It scared the crap out of me.
Now that I’m older, I finally got a chance to watch it again. And, while it didn’t terrify me like it did when I was younger, it still managed to be …

American Idol
American Idol; an American TV past-time for 10 seasons. And although it was great in the beginning, I can’t help but think its become a little redundant over the years.
Finding artists like Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Jordan Sparks, etc. wasn’t a waste of time, by any …
The Fall Guy: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harold TV Show
The Fall Guy: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harold is not a favorite episode of mine by any stretch of the imagination. There are a number of reasons for this. First, the opening stunt sequence I don’t find believable, not because of the action, but I just …
New Girl ‘Road Trip’, TV Show
New week and a new episode of New Girl, this one is entitled Road Trip. I am really excited about it. The creators of this show always find a way to make trivial things sound hilarious. For those who do not watch this show, New girl is a sit-com …
The Circuit TV Movie
The Circuit was a pretty dreadful movie that had its world premier on ABC Family. That alone should have told me that it wasn’t going to be very good, but considering that it revolved around auto racing I decided to sit back and watch it. As an auto racing …
InuYasha Episode 2 (Anime)
InuYasha Episode has InuYasha trying to take the Sacred Jewel Shard from Kagome. He is forced to wear an enchanted necklace that makes him obey Kagome.
This was a pretty good episode and I liked it. InuYasha is a decent anime and it’s off to a good start. …
Spongebob Squarepants Episode 2
The second episode is another example of why this show is so funny. Consisting of two skits, Bubblestand and Ripped Pants, viewers are treated to both laughs and great music.
The most memorable of the two skits was the Ripped Pants skit, where Spongebob entertains the beach crowd by ripping …
Mr. Monk and the Other Woman
This morning was the first time I’ve seen the Monk episode “Mr. Monk and the Other Woman.” I’m not sure when it was made, but I’m guessing it was sometime in the first season because the police seem like they don’t want his help yet.
Overall, it was a pretty …

Laramie: Queen of Diamonds
Laramie: Queen of Diamonds is a marvelous first show for the second season of this western that I adore greatly. One of the things that make it special is the guest star, Julie London. Decades later, London co-starred with Laramie star Robert Fuller in Emergency! While …

Gilligan’s Island - Gilligan’s Living Doll TV Show
Here we have Gilligan being his usual self in this episode. He actually gets on my nerves a little bit through his playing around and causing minor but irritating problems. But he does come up with creative solutions to problems so he makes up for his pesky joking around …
Mork & Mindy: Mork and the Immigrant
There will never be jokes that will ever top those based on Cold War politics in the 1970s and 1980s. And, conveniently, the Mork & Mindy episode “Mork and the Immigrant” manages to take advantage of that.
There are a couple things about this episode that stand out. First, you …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Girl from Piccadilly opens with Martin Westrope staring at Paladin’s card and the newspaper. We’re in San Francisco, and it’s not long before Richard Boone’s Paladin arrives, dressed in his finest suit as is so often the case when in the city. …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: New Moon Rising
OK, is it just me, or did the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series run out of budget money for making vampires and demons? I’m almost through the fourth season of the show with the episode “New Moon Rising” and there has hardly been any action at all.
Not that this …
Sea Hunt: Expedition TV Show

That Girl: My Sister’s Keeper
One of the best shows of the entire That Girl series was this third season show called My Sister’s Keeper. I’ve remembered this episode from the very first time I saw it, and in fact, I remember some of the publicity from it when it originally aired.
The co-producer …

I Love Lucy TV show
The I Love Lucy TV show may be a bit old, but it is still one of the best, leaving far behind most of the modern-day shows that I can only describe as stupidity/immorality parade.
I Love Lucy is funny and tasteful. You can watch it with your children without …
M*A*S*H: The Birthday Girls
My main issue with M*A*S*H: The Birthday Girls is that I have a hard time believing that no one knows when Margaret Houlihan’s birthday is. Considering all of the various birthdays they’ve celebrated on this long running series, it’s just a little difficult to go along with the …
Two and a Half Men
This sitcom has been on for a few years now, and we enjoy both watching reruns of old episodes, and catching the new ones that air on Monday nights.

Bones: The Crank in the Shaft
Well, I will admit this episode, The Crank in the Shaft, wasn’t quite as gross as other Bones’ episodes. But, I know I wouldn’t want to be the one trying to recover a dead body after it’s been ground up in an elevator shaft. In fact, it might be …
