A-Team TV Episode: West Coast Turn Around
I was flipping channels early this morning while taking care of my youngest daughter (she is an early bird) and came across another A-Team episode I haven’t seen before; West Coast Turn Around.
This one had the A-Team helping out a farmer who was being forced out of business by …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Ted Knight TV Show
As was the case for most of these shows, the The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast honoring Ted Knight as the Man of the Hour was put on at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. What I liked about the hour was that it did include some of Knight’s …
Sea Hunt: Diamond River TV Show
Sea Hunt: Diamond River opens with an intriguing bit where diver Mike Nelson is working with a scientist in testing an underwater communication device called a hydra phone. I love the idea of this device which allowed clearer and easier communication between divers and those on a boat …
Clean House
If I ever want to feel better about the mess in our house, all I need to do is turn on the television and watch the show Clean House.
Each week, Clean House visits another home that has become such a disaster area, you have to wonder why the people …
JT Edson’s Floating Outfit
The western series JT Edsons Floating Outfit are based on a group of people in the western era who help people.

Ghost Hunters: Two to Tango
I started watching season 4 of the show Ghost Hunters last night and one of the episodes, Two to Tango, was someone interesting even though they didn’t really find much.
The first case had them going to the Burlington County Prison in New Jersey with Tango’s dad William after he …
Stargate Universe: Human TV Show
I truly believe that Stargate Universe is one of the most boring shows on television. I don’t like it and I think it’s a horrible spin off that is shameful since it comes from a beautifully done show like Stargate SG-1. I had, however, had a lot …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 61 (Anime)
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 61 has Hohenheim enacting his plan to counter Father after he killed everyone in Amestris to obtain the power of God. They return the souls of the Amestrians to their bodies and begin attacking Father.

Bones: The Foot in the Foreclosure
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.
Booth and Brennan investigated a double homicide that first appeared to be one person burned to death …

That Girl: Gone A-Courtin’
That Girl: Gone A-Courtin’ once again has Seymour as Ann Marie’s agent. This is probably my number one pet peeve about That Girl, the rotating agent that flip flops from being the mostly unseen Seymour and then a guest starring agent that serves some comedic purpose in the …
Mork & Mindy: Mork’s Mixed Emotions
Everyone knows Robin Williams is able to play a wide range of emotions; complete with voices. But the Mork & Mindy episode “Mork’s Mixed Emotions” was definitely an episode geared toward showing his range.
We learn something about people from Orc in this episode; they are not supposed to have …
Destination Truth: Ghosts of Chernobyl/Sal’Awa
Once again, I spent my Wednesday night watching three shows and Destination Truth ended up being the most entertaining of the three.
Last night’s episode once again had the team investigating two cases.
The first case was an investigation of the ghost town around where the Chernobyl Power Plant had its …
Family Guy: Stewie B. Goode
I was watching the Family Guy episode Stewie B. Goode last night for probably about the dozenth time and I have to say it is still a somewhat funny episode.
There are two main plot points to this one. First, Peter gets an opportunity to complain about just about everything …
Heroes Season 1 Episode 2-Don’t Look Back

Christmas specials
Christmas specials are the best to watch on a boring day and there is nothing else on to watch. So far every Christmas there is hardly any good TV shows to watch but usually there is some Christmas special on and they are always good to watch. My favorite …
Burn Notice: Turn and Burn
Burn Notice: Turn and Burn is episode 2 of season 2 for this Miami-based series. In a sense, this is an updated Miami Vice, not in plot, but in terms of bringing Miami to television. There is a lot of location shooting, and oftentimes, the scenery makes …

From October 1966, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Day of Evil was the sixth episode of this series’ third year on the air. As always, the show starred Richard Basehart and David Hedison. Hold onto to your clocks, readers, we’re playing with time again. …
Mr. Monk Goes Underwater
When the episode “Mr. Monk Goes Underwater” first aired, I had to be somewhere and didn’t get a chance to watch it. Tonight, I finally got a chance and found it to be entertaining.
This was definitely a funny episode because Monk, who is afraid of everything, finds himself onboard …
The Virginian: The Exiles
The problem with The Virginian, as I’ve said before, is that it bores me more often than not. I couldn’t watch it as a kid because none of the characters captured my heart or imagination. This episode, The Exiles, exemplifies those feelings. It’s a show towards …
TV kids programs

Stargate SG-1: The Tomb
The early season five episodes of Stargate SG-1 had so many neat episodes, including this one called The Tomb. It’s a keeper from the get-go, with Jack being his usual impatient self while Daniel tries to decipher the way into a ziggurat.
Stargate SG-1: The Tomb has SG-1 teamed …

Mr. Monk and the Miracle
Well, Monk isn’t on the air again for at least another month but at least we got a quick fix with the annual Christmas special “Mr. Monk and the Miracle.”
This one was a pretty interesting case. You have a homeless man being killed and shoved inside a refrigerator and, …
Stargate SG-1: Exodus
The fourth season of Stargate SG-1 comes to an end with the cliffhanger episode entitled Exodus. There is a lot right about Exodus, and it makes for a thrilling view, even if not every bit of it thrills me personally.
The less than thrilling part for me is the …

Psych
As much as I like the show Psych, I was commenting to my wife the other day that the characters don’t seem to spend as much time trying to pretend he’s psychic than they did in the past. So, this episode, There’s Some thing about Mira, was really refreshing.
First, …

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Wish
As far as episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer go, “The Wish” was actually a bit corny and not one of my favorites.
This one takes place after Cordelia catching Xander kissing Willow and she ends up making a wish to a demon that Buffy had never come to Sunnydale. …
Everybody Loves Raymond
I have liked the show Everybody Loves Raymond since the first day I saw it. Everybody Loves Raymond is a show created by Ray Romano. It’s a really funny show with a great plot line. I also think that Ray’s parents and Robert are very funny. The show is full …
Just Shoot Me
Just Shoot Me is a pretty cool TV show. I think she show can be funny at times but boring at the same time. I think he has some really good actors in the show. For example David Spade is really good in the show. His acting is always really …
Stargate: Infinity: Decision TV Show TV Show
“You want to know the best world is? The next one.” That’s the best line of this first episode of Stargate: Infinity called Decision. This is not to be confused with the live action series. About the only commonality between the two is the name …
The Christophers Present … A Link in the Chain
The Christophers Present … A Link in the Chain is another show I just stumbled upon while searching out something new. I’m just tired of the junk we see on TV these days. I wanted new shows, even if those new shows were decades old, like this …

The Vampire Diaries on the CW

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 …

Smallville Season 8 Episode 3
To me this episode of Smallville was a bit bizarre. The story was that Oliver Queen had been poisoned and only had twelve hours to live so Clark and all his buddies had to find out what was wrong with him and find an antidote.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Dead Man’s Party
I absolutely love a good zombie movie. So, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Dead Man’s Party” wins points with me simply because it reminded me a bit of Night of the Living Dead.
Of course, it didn’t win enough points for me to consider it a great episode.
First of …
