The Amazing Race reality show
The Amazing Race is a reality show where teams of two people race against other teams of two all over the world, doing very unique tasks along the way.
The show usually starts with all of the teams in an American city where they are sent off to their provided …
QVC
Oh my. I am only in my late 20s but I am already addicted to this channel. My mom started watching it after dad died, and I got hooked. I love watching all of the stuff about makeup and how to put it on. I love when Bare Minerals …
Jeremiah: Thieves’ Honor
Jeremiah: Thieves’ Honor brings back Kim Hawthorne as Theo. Theo was an integral part of the movie that began the series. She’s a sassy, in your face leader of a community. She’s full of fight, and she doesn’t take prisoners. Hawthorne nailed this part in …
Venture Bros: Pinstripes and Poltergeists
This episode brings 24 back, still in ghost form and guiding 21. 21’s really become a competent character. For most of the season, the joke was that he thought he had, as the trope says, taken a level in badass, but it turns out it’s starting to …
MTV’s Parental Control
This reality show from MTV is original in the sense that the parents get to chose who their children date, note that the sexual orientation of the child doesn’t matter as I have seen both straight and gay dates appear on this show, bearing in mind that most of …
Chief Engineer’s Log featurette
One of the DVD extras for the Star Trek series is the Chief Engineer’s Log. It’s actually a little hard to watch for me. James Doohan was such a force. He died in July 2005, and this was an interview taped a year and a half …
Boston Legal
One of the television series which I used to hear about regularly was a series running on ABC named Boston Legal. However, when it was going on I did not have the time to watch it. Therefore what I ended up having to do was watch some of the …
Golden Girls Season 3
The third season of The Golden Girls was the first time I ever heard of something called Alzheimer’s disease. At the time I was still really young and I still remember feeling upset at the subject and that was long before I was exposed to the disease firsthand. Sophia …
The Simpsons Season 3 Episode 1
Homer wears a pink shirt to work. This catches the eye of Mr.Burns and he interrogates Homer for this breach of conduct, since only white shirts were allowed at work. Homer is given a form to fill out, which would determine how crazy he is. Homer gives Bart to …
Seinfeld: The Contest
One of the Seinfeld episodes I got to watch recently (for about the third time) was the episode entitled “The Contest.” If you have never seen this episode, or any other Seinfeld episode for that matter, you need to watch it. You’ll understand why this show was as popular …
South Park
I have always enjoyed the cartoon called South Park. This show is just funny. I really like all the characters. I like the funny music in the show as well as the sound effects. I think the story lines in south park are really dumb. But I also think that …
ANTM Saleisha
If you watch America’s Next Top Model, you’ll understand how addictive this show really is. This cycle’s winner, Saleisha Stowers has invoked a lot of controversy with her recent win. She’s one of the shows more “natural” looking models. But because she participated in Tyra’s T-Zone …
Beast Wars - Other Visits, Part 2
Beast Wars - Other Visits, Part 2 is superior to the first part, but I have to say, this episode does not offer any answers to the questions set up in the first half. For example, why did the aliens return? Why is the alien structure not manned? How …
Centennial: The Shepherds
Centennial: The Shepherds, while still high quality, is probably one of the two I’m not that fond of when compared to the others. Again, I want to stress that the quality is top drawer, that the acting is superb, and the story taken from the James Michener mini-series …
TMZ
TMZ is a show that tells you updated news about celebrities and famous people. The people that talk on it just stand around and show you videos and pictures and talk about the updated news with celebrities or famous people. It’s an alright show overall, I think that they …
NBC TV Series: Life
An interesting premise: a good cop wrongly convicted of murdering his friends and their son. He goes to prison for a life sentence, but DNA evidence exonerates him and he is released after twelve years. he is then reinstated as a police detective assigned to investigate homicides. While catching …
The Twilight Zone: Night Call TV Show
From February 1964, veteran actress Gladys Cooper portrays an elderly and lonely woman, Elva Keene, in The Twilight Zone: Night Call. The half hour is mostly Cooper’s. In this show, she’s a little crotchety, a characteristic derived from decades of living alone and having never married. …
Hannah Montana
Like I have said in my previous reviews I have three children so I am forced to watch the variety of childrens television on the market today. I absolutly love Hannah Montana. The show is very humorous and somewhere in the show I find my self cracking up. I …
A-Team TV Episode: Mission of Peace
I ended up stumbling across the A-Team episode Mission of Peace early Sunday morning. And, because I had missed the first few minutes of it, I found myself watching mainly in an effort to figure out what the heck was going on.
Overall though, it was a pretty decent episode.
Basically, the …
Futurama TV Episode: Anthology of Interest I
As I mentioned in another review, I was watching re-runs of the show Futurama last night since there really wasn’t much else on TV at the time. One of the episodes, entitled Anthology of Interest I, was an episode I had not seen before. However, it quickly became one …
The Simpsons Season 4 Episode 1 Kamp Krusty
Bart is dreaming of how he and his fellow school mates destroy the school on the last day. Homer promised Bart that if he would not get D in his grades he would get to go to Kamp Krusty. However Bart gets a D. Homer anyway sends him to …
The Simpsons
The Simpsons has been around forever and it’s the kind of show everybody knows about.
Those of you that haven’t seen it are missing out. Why? Because it’s funny and it’s current. By current I mean that the writers keep the material fresh and relevant to what …
Charmed Episode 1: Something Wicca This way comes
I am really a big Charmed fan. It is among the TV shows which runs for quite a number of years. And it is the only TV show which I’ve always watched and never missed any episode, not a single one. In the first few seasons, Shannon Doherty played …
Whoopi: Strange Bedfellows TV Show
From April 2004, Scott Bryce returns as Stan the Republican in Whoopi: Strange Bedfellows. This is Bryce’s second appearance on the half hour, NBC comedy that stars Whoopi Goldberg as Mavis Rae, the owner of Hotel Lamont. The half-hour show centers around two different plots.
First, there is …
Orchestra United: Episode 2 TV Show
The second episode of Orchestra United was a little slow for me somehow. I can’t really put my finger on it, but there was something that didn’t keep me as hooked as I had been. Still, the hour long episode from the United Kingdom had some solid …
Siapa Tak Sayang Bini - Who does not love their wives
I watched a drama on my local channel the other day, Siapa Tak Sayang Bini - Who does not love their wives and it was so darn funny and super awesome. I was watching it with my whole family and we were laughing like mad.
Basically, the synopsis of …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Initiative
Well, I guess that explains the commandos running around Sunnydale. Apparently there’s some sort of government run group known as the Initiative and they are interested in capturing and experimenting on vampires; including Spike (who was captured the episode before).
I couldn’t figure out a whole lot about this group …
The Andy Griffith Show: The Great Filling Station Robbery TV Show
From February 1963, The Andy Griffith Show: The Great Filling Station Robbery deals with a troubled teenager. Andy gets him a job at the gas station, working with Gomer Pyle (Jim Nabors) while the owner, Wally, is out of town. The problem comes when there’s a robbery …
Eureka Seven episode 50
Now with a thunderous cry from the heavens and convoys of angels rushing overhead, we now have finally reached the end of the epic and long saga solely known as Eureka Seven. With an overcast sky, we are forced to accept the truth despite what we would like or …
That Girl: All’s Well That Ends
That Girl: All’s Well That Ends is the final show of the fourth season, and it’s all about Ann Marie’s (Marlo Thomas) birthday. It’s fun to watch this show because it’s the end of ‘we have an understanding’ shows for Ann Marie and Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell). …
Family Guy: The Courtship of Stewie’s Father
Well, I got a chance to watch the Family Guy episode “The Courtship of Stewie’s Father” again last night and have to say it is one of the funnier episodes I have seen from this series.
Basically, Peter is trying to spend more time with Stewie. Of course, the only …
HGTV
If you have cable television a great show to watch 24 hours a day 7 days a week is Home and Garden television. The shows they feature are how to fix it show and repairs on rooms in ones house. Such shows like Design remix or Design …
Friends Episode: Rachel Moving Out
Friends Episode: Rachel Moving Out is one of the better episodes that you can see Monica’s really ‘controlling’ and ‘possessive’ manner of persona. The episode is when Rachel is going to move out and not being her room-mate anymore. And knowing Rachel, she is very laid-back about it …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Something Blue
Ok, I’m actually a bit confused about what was happening in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Something Blue.”
I get Willow is trying to cast a spell to make her get over the pain of Oz cheating on her then leaving town. And, because she has a bit too …
Jack Frost cartoon
Jack Frost was another vintage cartoon that I saw recently. Unfortunately, I wasn’t quite as enamored with it as I thought I might have been. I love all kinds of holiday films, and it wasn’t that the story wasn’t good as that it wasn’t as complete as …
Mr. Show with Bob & David, Seasons 1 & 2
“Mr. Show,” a groundbreaking and often bizarre program on HBO in the 1990’s, is absolutely required viewing for any fan of sketch comedy and absurdist humor-its loose, apparently free-flowing structure, in which sketches segue into one another in various imaginative ways, aids writers and stars Bob Odenkirk and David …
On the Run Silver Bandit Episode
I really liked this episode. I thought it was just completely hilarious. Although I must say that if felt just a little bit too long, but that was due to the crimes of the individual criminal because he kept getting away all the time and the police had to …
Sea Hunt: Midget Submarine TV Show
Sea Hunt: Midget Submarine brought to mind memories of watching an old favorite show of mine, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Now potentially the idea for the flying submarine could have come from Sea Hunt’s use of this midget submarine since this show predates Voyage. …
That 70s Show: Parents Find Out
Sometimes the best episodes on a comedy show are those about a subject that really isn’t wrong but has embarassing implications. The That 70s Show episode “Parents Find Out” is one of those episodes.
This episode happens a short time after Eric and Donna start having sex and, while in …
The Virginian: Duel at Shiloh
The Virginian: Duel at Shiloh from season one guest stars Brian Keith, who was always fun to watch on screen. The episode also features Geraldine Brooks as the new owner of a ranch near Medicine Bow, where the story takes place. As a woman, she faces a …
ASAP XV Sunday Afternoon Show
love watching ASAPxv every sunday afternoon. My weekend isn’t just complete without watching this lively show.
What I like most about ASAP is the rapport among all the hosts. You could see and feel from the way they interact on cam that they really are a family. The hosts …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - All Good Things… Part Two
Star Trek: The Next Generation - “All Good Things…” Part Two is the last episode of the series, and really, I think it could have been better. There is a lot about this episode that just does not make very much sense. For example, the explanation for where the …
Ghost Hunters show
Ghost Hunters is a show that is beginning its third season, and it is definitely a television show that I hope will be on for a long time. The Sci-Fi Network runs the hour long documentary every Wednesday evening. Ghost Hunters features TAPS (The Atlantic Paranormal Society) and they …
Iron Chef America
One of my very favourite television shows is Iron Chef America. It is shown on the Food Network (Channel 34 on Cogeco Cable) several times a week, generally in the evenings after 9 p.m.
The premise of the television show is that chefs who are specialists in different areas …
Ghost Hunters: Glimmer Men
You know, I used to love the show Ghost Hunters. Now I watch it but I honestly am not as big of a fan as I used to be. I think this is because the episodes aren’t as exciting as they used to be.
Last night’s episode, Glimmer Men, had …
Family Guy: Peter, Peter Caviar Eater
Well, that was a funny Family Guy episode, Peter, Peter Caviar Eater. This must have been an earlier episode in the series because we learn a bit more about Lois’ family and how she comes from an upper class family that never approved of her marrying the towel boy …
CSI Season 4 Episode 18- Bad to the Bone
CSI Season 4 Episode 18- Bad to the Bone
It’s quite a nice choice of words to name the episode. I bit ironic, I find. The episode itself was quite good, but I don’t think it was very interesting. I could guess some of the facts before the team did, …
Voyagers!: Bully and Billy
Voyagers!: Bully and Billy, episode 3 of the 1982 TV series, focused in on two main historical events. The first is the charge up San Juan Hill, only the problem is that Teddy Roosevelt has been killed by Billy the Kid. That’s the second focus of the …
Ghost Hunter’s International: Gate to Hell
The more I watch the show Ghost Hunter’s International, the more I find myself not liking the show all that much. Last night’s episode “Gate to Hell” was another example as to why.
The case itself is interesting. They visited a castle with no strategic importance at all and was …
