The Twilight Zone: The Mirror TV Show
I have never, ever, ever, ever liked The Twilight Zone: The Mirror. It is a third season episode of a series that I love which turns me off so much. I don’t like one thing about the show. Maybe it’s the idea of Peter Falk playing …

CSI Season 8 Episode 9 Cockroaches
It was a great episode; I loved every minute of it. The story gets all twisted and nothing is certain. And it does not really end. It needs to be continued in the next one.
In this episode the CSI team investigates the murder of a very successful young club …

In the summer of 2010, I came across a few friends who kept talking about a show called Supernatural. At this point, the series was into it’s fifth season. So I decided to wait it out, and start watching the seasons one by one.

Dancing With the Stars: S11, Wk 4 Results TV Show
This review centers around the Week 4 results for the 11th season of Dancing With the Stars, which for the most part has been a pretty exciting season. I must admit that has been a surprise. I hadn’t expected all that much from the series this year. …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Man Who Wouldn’t Talk

That 70s Show: Fez dates Donna
I happened to turn on a re-run of That 70s Show this afternoon; Fez Dates Donna and found it was absolutely hillarious.
This episode had Fez pretending to be Donna’s girlfriend to avoid some former girlfriend who is stalking him. During that time, you have Eric feeling jealous and going …

Take Me Out - ITV1 - Dating Show
Im quite a fan of Paddie McGuiness, he is a funny man and that’s what made me give the show that he presents, Take Me Out a chance. It’s essentially a modern day version of Blind Date, only this time there is no blind aspect and a lot more …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Merchant of Mayberry TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Merchant of Mayberry is what I call a quiet episode simply because the story is a rather low key, sweet one with a character who is unassuming and just a real down to earth type of guy. This second season show guest stars …
Due South: Mojo Rising
Due South: Mojo Rising was big on voodoo, and those shows aren’t my favorites to watch, regardless of the show. I’m not sure what the fascination is with this type of show, but sooner or later, it seems like every dramatic show on the air does some show …
House: Teamwork
Well, once again, the show House seems to be changing the cast again. At least they managed to bring back Thirteen and, since there really wasn’t any point in her, got rid of Cameron (though I have a feeling we’ll see her again).
This wasn’t a bad episode either. You …
The X-Files: Season 2, Episode 23: Soft Light
While this isn’t exactly what people mean when someone says that a person is afraid of their own shadow, the phrase still remains apt here when talking about Dr. Barton (a scientist who got bombarded with dark matter in an accident), and with good reason. This episode is …
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 …
Sony BRAVIA KLV-S32A10 32 in.
The Sony BRAVIA 32 inch LCD TV is a flat panel wide screen LCD HDTV. It is a thin, silver unit with a small base that swivels, oh yea and it is as cool as it sounds. The resolution of the TV is 1024×768 which is pretty basic, but …
Undercovers: Pilot TV Show

Two And A Half Men: The Devil’s Lube
“The Devil’s Lube” is the episode of Two And A Half Men originally airing on CBS on December 15, 2008. This episode was not one of the better ones, as it featured a needless cameo by Emilo Estavez playing Andy, Charlie’s womanizing best friend.
Most shows featuring star cameos …

Project Runway, season 3
Now that there’s only one episode left in the third season of Project Runway, I can honestly say I can’t wait until it is finally over.

TV Series Modern Family “Caught in the Act”

Stargate SG-1: Citizen Joe

Alex Haley Queen Mini Series
Alex Haley’s Queen was my first exposure to any of Alex Haley’s work. The mini-series appeared on television in the early 90s, and even though Halle Berry had been a working actress prior to landing the leading role in the mini-series, I think it was her first breakout role …

I really have come to hate the killer …
TVB Series: Burning Flame 3 (Actors)

Stargate SG1: Avalon Pts 1 and 2
