CHiPs: Crack-Up
In CHiPs: Crack-Up, Jon is injured chasing a couple of drag racers. We get some good time angst for a few minutes while we wait to find out the results, like we didn’t know he’d pull through. I love this kind of stuff, though. All that …
Dance Your Azz Off (Oxygen)
I have seen the premiere of this show and have some mixed feelings. I know that obesity is a big issue in this country (lame pun). But I am having a hard time believing that the people behind this show aren’t trying to somehow exploit overweight …
Vizio VM230XVT Razor
Amongst small-screen Televisions, the 23-inch Vizio VM230XVT Razor is really a standout because of its good display quality and astonishing features. This Television uses a good edge-lit brought backlight for display quality that’s not within the same category as big-screen powerhouses, however that’s really, very great for a TV …
John Doe: Shock to the System TV show
I do like the opening scene from John Doe: Shock to the System because it keeps the continuity alive of John wanting to be challenged. He doesn’t want to know everything, and like an earlier outing where he multi-tasked in a chaotic frenzy until there was something he …

M*A*S*H: Heal Thyself
The wonderful thing about M*A*S*H: Heal Thyself from the latter part of season eight is that it’s an unassuming beginning full of laughs and comedy that suddenly becomes a powerfully dramatic program. Some might see it coming, but I doubt anyone really had a clue just how Heal …
CSI New York Season 8 Episode 3
While I really like the new season of CSI episode 3 was a bit disappointing. I think that the creators of the show were attempting to make a really “cool” episode, with hot girls and cars in it, but the result ended up being a little bit show off …
The Twilight Zone: Execution TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Execution is not an episode I enjoy all that much, and that is despite the fact that I tend to enjoy time travel stories. The setup is that a modern day scientist decides to test out his new gadget and ends up bringing an outlaw …
Prison break season 2 episode 10-rendezvous
Prison break season 2 episode 10-rendezvous
This was a nice episode. Just as the rest of the episodes, it was thrilling and adrenaline pumping. The show is a great example of some good TV writing. This one was just a little bit funnier than the rest.
In this episode the events …
Burn Notice: Good Soldier
Burn Notice: Good Soldier is an episode from season two of this spy series that I think is a little on the ridiculous side of things. Most of the time, the regulars — Michael Weston (Jeffrey Donovan), Fiona (Gabrielle Anwar), and Sam (Bruce Campbell — are covertly watching …
House MD. Season 8 Episode 2
I have previously said that House was one TV show that was not afraid to take risks (it has previously replaced almost an entire cast) and it was completely unexpected and brilliant. Well, episode 2 of House has proven me just unexpected the show can get. It left me …

Flavor Flav TV Show

Miranda Episode One
This new sitcom, starring and written by central star Miranda Hart, promises itself as something of a throwback to the classic 70s sitcom, the type where crude but allowable jokes were plenty and cardboard cutout characters were commonplace.
While this show is only starting out, things don’t look good. …
Scooby Doo
Scooby Doo is a funny, family oriented cartoon that all ages can love. The Scooby Doo cartoon has been around since the 1970s, and several generations have grown up watching this crazy cartoon with a talking dog. Scooby Doo stars Scooby Doo, the brown and black spotted dog who …
Rush (An Australian TV Series)

Heroes TV Series

M*A*S*H: Dear Dad… Three simply refers to this being the third episode where we get a full out letter from Hawkeye Pierce (Alan Alda) to his father. These episodes are always so good to watch. They provide glimpses of life at the 4077th and allow a lot …
Clean Sweep TV show
This television show is great. It is all about decluttering and rearranging, in order to make your house more useable.
In each episode, a couple or family is featured. They have a room or possibly two rroms that are completely useless, mostly because of clutter. In Clean Seep, the Clean …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Saboteur TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Saboteur, show 24 of this science fiction program, is one of duplicity. The first thing we see are several electrical arcs, but it’s not from weather or some machine malfunction; rather, we see Captain Lee Crane (David Hedison) being brainwashed. …
Laramie: Day of Vengeance TV Show
Laramie: Day of Vengeance, a first year episode of this awesome western series, had some nice elements to it. The show stars John Smith and Robert Fuller as cowboys, Slim Sherman and Jess Harper, respectively.

Even before I got television in the early 2000s I would hear references to a show called “Larry King Live”. However, since I did not have cable at the time and thus did not know what it was about I suspected that it would be sort of like a …

Emergency!: Crash is the final episode of the series’ first season. It’s notable as well for being the second and last appearance of John Smith as Captain Hammer. Salary demands kept him from continuing in season two, which I thought was a shame because he did a …

Star Trek: Metamorphosis TV Show

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 2.10
Funny how the previous episode was titled “Complications” when in this one, things do nothing but get even more complicated, for better or worse? I’m not quite sure. Sarah’s obsession with the three dot symbol from the basement is further explored here for the most part. She comes across …

Ellen TV show
Ellen was a television series starring Ellen Degeneres and it was a half hour situational comedy. Ellen was a bit of a weird show for me because it seemed to always be entangled with Ellen Dengenere’s personal life.
