While the story of Have Gun - Will Travel: Silver Convoy does very little for me, this entry from season one has some attraction because of its guest stars, specifically two of them — Nico Minardos and Barbara Luna.
Minardos has played the jovial, playboy-like Mexican in numerous TV shows …

This episode doesn’t have a “previously on” segment. I kind of got used to those recaps and not having it there was pretty jarring.
The group comes across a group of nomads who are oddly reminiscent of hippies. They wander the earth, singing songs, and telling stories. …

I find From the Earth to the Moon - Part 11: The Original Wives Club to be perhaps the most poignant of the 12 episodes that make up this 1998 mini-series which aired on HBO. This is the story of the wives of the original nine astronauts selected …

If designing for the judges each week isn’t tough enough, Project Runway’s episode, What a Girls Wants, really sets the designers up for a reality check.
When Heidi announced they would be designing outfits for one of the most important events in a woman’s life, I figured the challenge would …

I am so glad that the writers strike is over! You know why? That means that my favourite sitcom is now back on the air every Monday night! The Big Bang Theory!
This show is so funny as it follows the lives of a couple of nerdy type guys. They …

The 5th Season of MASH helped the series rebound from, my opinion, a weak 4th season. To spice things up, MASH has Margaret getting engaged to a Lt. Colonel she met while in Tokyo and, as a result, ending her relationship with Frank Burns. The season finale has her …

I do enjoy Stargate SG-1: 48 Hours, but it’s one more Earth-based story, and it’s yet another one where the team is divided up. One misses the vintage years when SG-1 went exploring, and they were truly a team.
Here, Teal’c finally gets his revenge. Let’s all cheer! …

Tony Danza was the latest guest on Shatner’s Raw Nerve. I used to never like Danza, but after seeing him in person while he was filming “Who’s the Boss” and then watching how he’s responded to various challenges in life, I actually respect him quite a bit.
Danza doesn’t …

I find Friends Episode: Phoebe Runs totally awesome. It is so funny and darn awesome and these are the first few episodes whereby you get to see Phoebe being the sarcastic person that she is and she is definitely lovable. Rachel and her are room-mates in the earlier …

The first time I watched the episode “Dear Sally Rogers” of “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” I had high hopes for the ending of the episode. I felt that since this was a fifth season episode and with the end of the series clearly in sight, the writers were …

As one of my all-time favorite shows ever, as in definitely the top ten, I’ve been wanting to get the Emergency! Season 1 DVD set since it came out. Economics prevented it, but finally I was able to get the first season. Hopefully, I’ll be able to …

“The Path to the Pokemon League” is an episode of the “Pokemon” series and it’s the first episode of several that would be made every now and then with the intent of knocking Ash’s confidence down a bit. Such episodes always show Ash getting cocky after winning a number …

M*A*S*H: Souvenirs focuses on the issue of wartime souvenirs. In this case, helicopter pilot Willie Stratton, played by Michael Bell, gets locals and kids to scavenger for him, collecting all kinds of trinkets and souvenirs which he then sells and makes a huge profit from. The problem …

My Generation: Home Movies is the second outing for this new drama which follows 9 high school graduates, ten years later. It’s a ‘where are they now’ pseudo documentary drama, which is somewhat unique in concept. I suppose it’s a way of trying to capitalize on the …

Stargate SG-1: 200 was the celebration of Stargate SG-1’s two-hundredth episode and unlike the show done for number 100 which was for the crew, this one was more for the fans. An important thing to point out, per the producers, is that this show really doesn’t happen. …

Ellen Degeneres has taken Paula Abdul’s place on American Idol as a judge for season 9, and the world finally got to see her debut on February 9th. I was really looking forward to seeing her as the new judge, and she definitely didn’t disappoint. She brought …

Having been the Man of the Hour back in the mid-seventies, Michael Landon became the Man of the Year in this edition of The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. This was the final season of roasts, and only a few celebrities received the ‘of the Year’ honor. In …

I got to watch bits and pieces of last night’s Law & Order SVU episode Hardwired. For the most part, it was OK. But, it really wasn’t anything that stood out when compared to the other episodes I’ve seen of the show.
Basically, it had the same plot as others, …

I missed a good portion of the second season of Bones so when everyone started talking about the Gravedigger in last night’s episode “The Hero in the Hold” I was a bit lost about the whole thing; especially when they started talking about being buried alive.
However, the episode itself …

And so Glee’s descent into the real world continues.
With its revolving plot lines and hit or miss ‘themes’. the once magical “Glee” has become a what was once cool, TV show. Following in the footsteps of shows like Lost, Glee seems to be a victim of its own …

2 funny episodes in a row. I’m going to go ahead and take that as a good sign. It took a while, but these characters are starting to step up. Oh, I doubt they’ll ever be as great as the original crew, but no show has …

Last night’s episode of House, Brave Heart, wasn’t too bad.
After suffering through a long baseball game waiting for it to come on, I was a bit confused at first because it looked a lot like a cop show. But, it turns out the case involves a cop who comes …

One outing from The Carol Burnett Show’s final season on the air included James Garner and George Carlin, along with regulars Tim Conway and Vicki Lawrence. Below are some thoughts about this hour of variety entertainment.
–Burnett joked about being on the unemployment in 3 weeks, but the real …

I watched another season three episode of Ghost Hunters over the weekend and have to say it was entertaining.
In “Toys of Terror” the TAPS team is asked to investigate a house by a woman who is terrified of the things she has seen and heard there. What’s interesting about …

Beast Wars - Feral Scream, Part One is an episode that has some strengths, but unfortunately, some weaknesses as well. Let me first start with what I did not like because these are problems that bother me each and every time I watch the episode. First of all, the …

All the children get a choice between shop class and home economics and all the boys choose shop, except for Kenny (maybe to avoid getting hurt). The boys make a bet about who would win a fight between Tweek and Craig, and they try to make it happen. When …

The Treasure of Sierra Madre Street was episode eleven of the 1980 TV series called Tenspeed and Brown Shoe, starring Jeff Goldblum as private detective, Lionel Whitney, and Ben Vereen as his con man partner, E.L. ‘Tenspeed’ Turner. Here are a few observances about this show.
–Loved the opening …

This isn’t just another CSI copy cat. This is the real thing. Kathy Reichs is the person behind Temperance Brennan, who is a forensic anthropologist for the Jeffersonian Institute. Tempe or Bones, as she is fondly called by everybody, is not your ordinary geek. She’s strong willed, she knows …

Invasion was the April 28, 1962 of Have Gun - Will Travel. It is not a favorite episode as it was all about some military fight. Basically, it’s part of the Irish revolution and revolves around the character played by Robert Gist, Gavin O’Shea.
O’Shea wants financial backing …

Last night’s final Project Runway challenge was somewhat entertaining. The designers were taken to an art museum and told to create an outfit based on something they were inspired by. This ended up being everything from an old bed to moss on a fountain outside.
I have to tell you …

Stargate SG-1: Solitudes has some great moments in it and continues to be an episode I think of fondly. There’s a lot of angst in it, and we see the determination to survive and to never give up on many of the team’s faces.
A Stargate malfunction tosses Jack …

My almost two-year-old loves this show. It is one of her favorites, along with the Big Comfy Couch. I could do without watching it, but I like that she has a show or two that she likes, so I can have a bit of a break during the day.
As …

This episode starts a new arc and goes back to the older comedic style reminiscent of Naruto’s earlier episodes. Sasuke is insulting his two teammates, Naruto is playing ninja with Konohamaru and friends, and Sakura decides to go postal on Naruto and Konohamaru. While running away from Sakura Konohamaru …

You know, I used to like watching Ghost Hunters. I even used to plan my evenings around each new episode. But, after watching yet another disappointing one last night, I am starting to wonder if maybe I should change my allegiance to another program.
I still like TAPS and its …

I have now watched the first 2 ½ seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and have never seen an episode so filled with emotion as “Consequences.”
This episode takes place right after Faith accidentally kills a person thinking he was a vampire and deals with her and Buffy’s efforts to …

This fall one of the television shows that I was determined to watch was a showed called Forever. Forever is the story of Dr. Henry Morgan who is played by Ioan Gruffudd (whom I liked since I first saw him as Mr. Fantastic in the Fantastic Four trilogy). …

Having seen the future, the Doctor decides to take Rose back in time to the mid 1800’s. While he aims for the year 1860, he ends up taking the TARDIS to 1869, and to a different town no less.
They arrive to find the town plagued by …

Synopsis: While reluctantly helping country music star Lurleen Lumpkin get back on her feet, Marge discovers Lurleen’s dad abandoned her and seeks to reunite her with her father. Unfortunately, the dad turns out to be even more of a deadbeat than they imagined and he steals one of her …

The Twilight Zone: The Trouble with Templeton is another one of the many shows where a person finds solace in their past. Sometimes these outings end up positively and sometimes not. I like this one because it comes with a bit of a message that is …

I can’t wait until the premiere of Dancing With The Stars March 22, 2010, so I can see Pamela Anderson dance. I’m pretty sure a lot of people who usually wouldn’t watch the show will tune in this season just to see how skimpy Pamela’s costumes will be. …

Stargate SG-1: The Quest Part 2 was the beginning of the final ten episodes of SG-1 and the conclusion to the mid-season two-parter.
Here is the good and the bad:
–Daniel with Merlin is great. This is a reminder of who Daniel really is and why we love him. …

I’ve seen about a dozen Christmas related shows in the past week or so but I have to admit the classic Mork & Mindy episode “Mork’s First Christmas” was probably one of the better ones I’ve watched.
I’m not sure I like the whole Eugene kid that shows up early …

That ’70s Show is a really good show. It’s also amazing that is was on the air from 1998 until 2006. This makes it a very long lasting TV show. I think the idea and concept of the TV show is great. I like how they made a show that …

Like I mentioned in another review, I was home with the kids yesterday and, while rocking my youngest daughter to sleep, I found myself watching some episodes of the Andy Griffith Show.
One of these episodes, entitled “Mayberry on Record,” wasn’t too bad.
This one had a man coming to Mayberry …

M*A*S*H: Cowboy deals with a helicopter pilot who regularly flies in patients for treatment and often gets shot himself, as he did here. While being treated, he lets Hawkeye know that he really wants to go home. Hawkeye is willing to fight for that, but Henry Blake …

In M*A*S*H: The Red/White Blues, Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) examines the base commander, Colonel Sherman Potter (Harry Morgan) for his required annual examination and discovers Potter has high blood pressure. This would result in Potter being sent home early. Since the test doesn’t need to be done …

Every kid in America had to feel for Opie Taylor (Ron Howard) in this episode of The Andy Griffith Show. It’s their hope and their nightmare both. The show, Opie’s Ill-Gotten Gain, from November 1963 begins innocently enough with Opie attempting to do his math homework, only …

I was never a big fan of L.A. Law, though with reruns, I probably have seen most if not all of the entire series, but as I turned on One Rat, One Ranger to watch it for the first time in years, my initial thought was, “Wow, what a …

Friday nights are my personal nights with Dr. G, Medical Examiner on A & E. The show comes on at nine o’clock, EST, and I have found the show to be the best television show being broadcasted on Friday evenings. Years ago, abc had T.G.I.F. being aired …

I admit that I don’t think that one has to be very intelligent to watch this show and understand it because it is very simple, but some episodes are really ridiculous.
It starts when Olga and Ramsey catch Frank performing an operation on a rat. Frank invites Olga for a …
