Dead Like Me: A Cook
I just hate stories that have animals in them because I worry about what will happen to the animal. It’s all fiction, I realize, but in the ‘it’s just TV’ world, I can deal with anything that happens to a human being because it’s by choice, but I …
Law & Order SVU: Snatched
OK, Law & Order SVU has been going downhill as a series for a long time now but I will give credit where credit is due and compliment last night’s episode of the show “Snatched.” But only because it was very creative.
You have yet another case of a child being …

Duck Dodgers season 1 episode 9: The Green Loontern
I’m a huge Green Lantern fan, so when I found out that an episode of “Duck Dodgers” (a show I’m also a fan of) crossed over and had Dodgers joining the Corps to battle Sinestro, I had to track it down. It was as geektastic as I hoped. …

M*A*S*H: Divided We Stand
Season two begins with M*A*S*H: Divided We Stand, which in many ways seems to be a quick study guide to the uninitiated of this military comedy. The opening has General Clayton (Herb Voland) discussing the personnel of the 4077th. This essentially provides an overview of the …
Ellen Degeneres Talk Show
This is my second favorite show of all time. I love this show. Ellen always has something fun and exciting going on, on her show. She has a lot of celebrities and non celebrities on her show. One of the main reasons I love her show is mainly because …
Merry Little Christmas
Each time I watch House this season he seems to keep digging himself into a deeper hole and I’m really starting to wonder just how he’s going to get out of it.

House: Broken
I had some concerns about the show House when I found the first episode “Broken” was going to focus solely on Hugh Laurie’s character while checked into a mental institution. But, after watching the 2-hour season premiere last night, I will say I was impressed by it.
The episode does …
Acclaimed British Television Show on BBC America: “Doctor Who”
Americans, and other people groups around the world, seem to either despise or adore British humor, as seen in British television shows and movies. One television show that has won worldwide acclaim for over three decades is “Doctor Who.” A series accounting the adventures of the only Time Lord, …
Doctor Who season 1 Episode 1 Rose

Probe: Plan 10 from Outer Space
You can tell from the title that this episode is going to be either an homage or a take off on Plan 9 from Outer Space. It’s pretty wacky, but oddly interesting anyway.
In Probe: Plan 10 from Outer Space, Truman Smith (Michael Constantine) calls his friend Austin James …
Numb3rs Season 5 episode 20 The 5th man
I like the show Numb3rs a lot. Some people say that it is just another police show…FBI sorry, in which good guys always get the bad guys. Well that’s not far away from the truth I admit but I still I don’t watch most of CSI and similar police …
Justice League Unlimited: Ultimatum
I’m not certain that punching a lava man is a good idea. First, what’s to say it would be effective? Does anyone know what a lava man is made of? Secondly, it seems that since they are glowing red and spit lava on people that it could be dangerous, …
Eerie India television show
When i was a young teenager I liked a television show called Eerie Indiana and I would watch it every week without fail. It must have been good because ten years later I can still remember a lot of the episodes, and was compelled to order it on a …
Mork & Mindy: Mork goes Erk
Well, that was an episode of Mork & Mindy I haven’t seen before. Mork Goes Erk is a great episode and one I would recommend watching if you’ve never seen the show before.

Psych: Weekend Warriors

This one has Shawn and Gus posing as Civil War reenactors after someone appears to be …
CSI: Hard Evidence
CSI: Hard Evidence for the Nintendo Wii duplicates the feeling and the style of the hit television show very well in my opinion. I enjoy watching the show and examining the clues with the characters, so I figured playing a game where I was in charge of solving the …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Hostage
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Hostage starts out with one of those cliffhanger scenes, with Buck saving himself from being run over by a truck by clinging to the undercarriage and climbing up. This show loves to do those old movie house devices, making you think there was …

Destroy, Build, Destroy
I was flipping channels Saturday night, looking for something to entertain me while I was trying to get the baby to sleep. One of the shows I came across was a kids show entitled Destroy, Build, Destroy. And, since I could find nothing better, I figured I would give …
Kim Possible
Kim Possible. This is a funny TV show. The lines are brilliant for what it is. I have gotten more than a few good chuckles out of this show … until reruns got to the point of ‘ew, change the channel to the news’. Anyway, I think Will Friedle …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 1: Voyage of the Damned
This Christmas special picks up right where “Last of the Time Lords” (or Time Crash if you count that short special”) left off, with the now companionless Doctor crashing into the Titanic. Well, it’s not THE Titanic, but a tourist space cruiser that just happens to resemble the …
Drake & Josh: Really Big Shrimp
I’ve never been able to get into the television show “Drake & Josh.” However, whenever they have made a TV movie, I’ve found it to be entertaining.
Their lastest movie, Really Big Shrimp, is the same way. From what I can tell, it’s meant to put closure to the series…showing …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Zeppo
One of the great things about the Buffy the Vampire Slayer series is the other characters who help her in her battles. So, it’s refreshing to see an episode dedicated specifically to one of those characters, like the one entitled “The Zeppo.”
This one focuses on Xander and how he …
Stargate SG-1: The Tok’ra Part 1
Midway through the second season of Stargate SG-1, there was a two-part episode that gave us more information on the Tok’ra race, which had been introduced earlier in the year in the episode In the Line of Duty. Stargate SG-1: The Tok’ra Part 1 is an interesting episode.
However, …
CSI Season 6 Episode 2 Room Service
I didn’t like this episode at all because of the way that it was filmed and edited. The writing was actually not bad. In this episode the team investigates two murders. One of a hot male celebrity and another of a poor Thai immigrant. From the very beginning of …
