MacGyver: Final Approach
The fifth episode of MacGyver’s second season is much better than the fourth one was. MacGyver: Final Approach opens with a neat bit of Mac being killed in a plane crash. Of course, he’s in a simulator, and he’s not thrilled when Pete tells him that he …
South Park: Guitar Queero
Being one of the newer episodes of South Park, Guitar Queero plays into the same self enhanced stereotypes the writers of the show have been playing into for a while. While the plot is clear enough, it relies too heavily on the subject matter to make it interesting and …
Seven Days season 3 episode 22 Live: From Death Row
If you read any of my reviews about Seven days, where I am always saying that the show is very simple and predictable maybe this sentence will shock you: I am sorry it ended. Yeah, that’s true I really am. Not because of this episode, I mean, CERTAINLY not …

Jeremiah: Ring of Truth
To be totally honest, I was mostly bored and disappointed throughout Jeremiah: Ring of Truth. It was a very odd show, full mushroom hallucinations, a drag queen brothel, and a circus. I really wasn’t interested in any of it until the last ten or fifteen minutes. …
Law and Order: CI Season 1, Episode 14
Every so often there’s an episode from the Law and Order franchise that disturbs you and makes you feel uncomfortable. For me that was this episode of Criminal Intent. The episode starts out calmly enough, with a man trying to raise money, though he doesn’t say what. He tries …

The Next Iron Chef: Respect TV Show
For me, the most recent episode of The Next Iron Chef which was entitled Respect was a little lackluster for me. I’ll go so far as to call it bland. I wasn’t engaged by it or even that interested, and that is very unusual for me. …

Sea Hunt: The Aquanettes TV Show
The 12th outing for the underwater adventure series Sea Hunt was called The Aquanettes, and one thing I loved about it is that it was mostly under the water. Those are always such intriguing episodes.

Harper’s Island Season Finale

Stargate SG-1: Chimera
Stargate SG-1: Chimera brings about a lot of surprises for fans of the series. The first one is that Daniel suddenly owns a home. This has come out of nowhere. For seven years, he’d had an apartment and, bam, now he has a house.
The second is …

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. …
House TV Episode: Guardian Angel
There wasn’t much on TV tonight so I ended up watching a re-run of the show House that I might have seen before but really don’t remember; Guardian Angel.

Entourage season 2 episode 5 Neighbors
In this episode we see Eric in action, so I guess this episode message is: Everything can happen if you help it happen. I agree with this statement, if you sit around all the day just waiting for something to happen you can miss a bunch of great opportunities. …
Sea Hunt: Decoy TV Show
Sea Hunt: Decoy was interesting because of how the story evolved. This story revolves around a deep sea diving expert, Mike Nelson, who is portrayed by Lloyd Bridges. He had to be in good shape since he’s in swim trunks and bare chested so much of the …
Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town
The story of how Santa became the jolly figure we know today is told in the classic animated tale, Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town. This is another of my all-time holiday favorites. I watch it at least twice every season, if not more. The story …
Rosie Live
“Rosie Live” was an attempt in November 2008 by NBC to revive the musical. Unfortunately, they never gave it a real chance to succeed.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Night of the Huntress!
The intro has Batman and Black Canary teaming up to fight Solomon Grundy. Seeing as it’s Solomon Grundy, of course it’s great.
Many cite this episode as the low point of the series, and yeah, they’re right. Batman has an expansive rogues gallery of great characters, heck DC …
A Taste for Death - Part 1
A Taste for Death - Part 1 from the P.D. James novel was produced in 1988 and starred Roy Marsden as Inspector Adam Dalgliesh. Like most of these movies/mini-series that are made, this is a story with lots of little subplots and a lot of characters. It …
The Twilight Zone: A Passage for Trumpet TV Show
I’m not really crazy about The Twilight Zone: A Passage for Trumpet, although I do like the punch that it gets at the end. This half-hour episode revolves around a depressed trumpet player, Joey Crown, who is portrayed by Jack Klugman. It’s a solid performance. I …
Home and Away Tv show
Home and Away is a great television show for all ages, however I would say it is mainly targeted at teenagers as most of the characters on the show are teenagers. I have watched this show for 13 years now, I first started when I was 16 years old. …
Who’s Your Pappa - Real Housewives of Atlanta

The Andy Griffith Show: Opie the Birdman TV Show
The fourth season of the wonderful comedy series, The Andy Griffith Show, began on September 30, 1963 with a very nice show called Opie the Birdman. However, while I have watched this show several times over the years, it’s one I don’t watch as often as others. …
Spongebob: Blackened Sponge

Confessions of a Teen Idol - Episode 5
Having just discovered Confessions of a Teen Idol on VH-1 yesterday during a re-airing of its fourth episode, today I tuned in for the latest showing, Episode 5.

Barney show
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 …
Death of an Expert Witness - Part 3
