The Andy Griffith Show: The Big House TV Show
From May 1963, The Andy Griffith Show: The Big House is the final episode of the third season, and it’s a pretty good one. It focuses on Andy, Barney, and Gomer, and that means one thing: good comedy.
The basic story has a couple of robbers being captured by …
Roseanne Season Two
The second season of Roseanne was pretty good. There were a lot more laughs than I was expecting, especially since this season came out in the late 1980s or early 1990s. I thought it would seem really dated and hard to follow, but it actually held up a lot …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Day It Rained Forever TV Show

The Twilight Zone: The Night of the Meek TV Show
My problem with The Twilight Zone: The Night of the Meek is that the first half bothers me too much. This is actually the holiday story of The Twilight Zone. It’s their Christmas tale, taking an alcoholic bum and turning him into Santa Claus. The bum, …

Celebrity Apprentice - Season 2, Episode 2
Celebrity Apprentice - Season 2, Episode 2 brings up one very important question — why is Dennis Rodman participating in this process? He has shown no real desire to be there, even though he talks like he wants to be. It makes no sense. In this …
Highway Patrol: The Seventh Green TV Show
Highway Patrol’s 18th show from its third year was a little different, and I liked that quite a bit. As the name might indicate, The Seventh Green, which aired back in February 1958, opened with Chief of Police Dan Mathews (Broderick Crawford) playing a round of golf with …

South Park - Creme Fraiche
Now this is one of those weird episodes of South Park that just had me laughing at the silliness of it. The whole focus of it was not what I expected so I learned a few things.

The Tonight Show with Jay Leno - 5/29/09

Star Wars The Clone Wars: Shadow of Malevolence (episode 3)
This is the middle episode of the trilogy about the Separatist spaceship Malevolence. Out of the three episodes, I thought this one was the weakest and that’s why I rated it a “7″. It shows what a monster General Grievous really is when he decides to attack a Jedi …

Night Gallery: The Phantom Farmhouse/Silent Snow, Secret Snow TV Show
