TV Reviews
Doreman
The Hungama is a kid’s channel where they telecast the cartoon show or serial called Doreman. The Doreman is a very interesting, entertaining and funny cartoon serial which my children love to watch. In this cartoon serial there is a robot future cat, and his friend Nobitha …
Stargate SG-1: Bad Guys
Okay, I admit it. For some odd reason, I actually do like this tenth season entry for Stargate SG-1, even with Vala there. “Bad Guys” is really the only one I can think of that I can make that statement with. Of course, Vala is with …
Opportunity Knocks
Opportunity Knocks is the latest in the family game show business. It’s probably doomed, because I really like it. It’s wholesome fun with loving families getting a chance at some much-needed cash, as well as extra prizes. To succeed on this show, your family has to …
The Apprentice UK - Episode 1
On a whim, I saw this offered ‘on demand’ on cable and decided to turn it on. ‘This’ is The Apprentice UK, its first episode. This is the British version of Donald Trump’s Apprentice on NBC. Here, it’s Sir Alan Sugar running the show. He …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Two Plus One
Two Plus One was the 30th episode of the sixth season of Have Gun - Will Travel. I miss TV seasons with that many episodes, and this wasn’t even the last one. We don’t get a San Francisco opening unfortunately. Rather, we see Paladin (Richard Boone) …
The Choir: Unsung Town: Ep 3 TV Show
In the third outing of The Choir: Unsung Town, choir master Gareth Malone challenges the South Oxhey Community Choir to sing more complex pieces. I don’t know the name of the one they ended up doing, but it’s a dramatic piece that I recognize more from being in …
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Ledge TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: The Ledge was a bit different than what we normally see from this particular western series. Richard Boone stars as the man in black, Paladin, a gunfighter for hire who also has a sophisticated side. We didn’t see any of that in …
Everybody Loves Raymond
Everybody Loves Raymond is a great comedy sitcom. I like that this sitcom actually portrays real-life circumstances. The characters in Everybody Loves Raymond are down-right hilarious, especially Raymond and his dad. Raymond is married and has three children. He lives next door to his doting/nosy mother Marie and comical …
Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 2
Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 2 continues the P.D. James story that takes place at Nightingale Hospital. This confines the story to taking place mostly in the hospital, and thus, it’s a story I like better than several of the other city location stories. For whatever …
Stargate SG-1: Enemies
Season 5 of Stargate SG-1 blasts its way onto the screen in a show called Enemies. It’s a good show well worth the hour watch.
Stargate SG-1: Enemies picks up where Season 4’s cliffhanger, Exodus, ended. One of the early scenes is a poignant conversation between Jack and …
So You Think You Can Dance: Finale Part 1 TV Show
It was a great finale night for So You Think You Can Dance. This was the last performance show of the season for the final three dancers: Kent, Lauren, and Robert. All three are so solid, and I have to agree with producer and judge, Nigel Lythgoe, …
Bizare Foods with Andrew Zimmern (Series on the Travel Channel)
The travel channel show, Bizarre Foods with Andre Zimmern, is too great a show to break down into merely one episode. Besides, Andrew Zimmern does the exact same thing in every episode just in different places all over the world. I would have thought that that would be boring …
John Doe: Past Imperfect TV show
John Doe: Past Imperfect is a little strange on the surface. While this series continues to hold my interest, elements of it aren’t as strong as I’d like. For one thing, star Dominic Purcell tends to overact, especially during intense scenes. For me, it feels like …
Smallville Season 7 episode 12
In this episode of Smallville we get to go into the dark crevices of Lex’s mind, disturbing place that it is. Lex has found Kara and Clark wants to know her location which Lex can’t tell anybody as he is in a coma due to being shot in …
Invisible man
This is an older show that was on TV in 2000 and 2001 and it had 2 seasons. I remember watching that show about 8 years ago and I really liked it but I saw maybe 10 episodes all together. Now I found this show online and I’ve already …
Star Trek: The Counter-Clock Incident TV Show
The second season of the animated Star Trek series was very short and lasted but a few episodes. Star Trek: The Counter-Clock Incident was the last one, airing on October 12,1974. It was actually a very interesting plot where the Enterprise ends up in an alternate dimension …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - A Matter of Honor
This second season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation - “A Matter of Honor” is an episode that is quite fun to watch, although it does have its flaws. This is the show’s second Klingon-focused episode, and like the first Klingon episode, this episode excels - at least, …
Diagnosis Murder: My Four Husbands TV Show
I always thought Diagnosis Murder: My Four Husbands was somewhat funny. It features Morgan Fairchild as actress Pamela Dorn, who has a TV series where she portrays the ‘Queen of the Jungle’. To Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke), though, she’s Pammie and he’s Uncle Mark.
One of the …
NCIS: About Face
“About Face” was a great episode for anyone who loves the character of Jimmy Palmer played by the wonderful Brian Dietzen.
We viewers don’t often get a chance to see much of Jimmy as he is always stuck in the morgue. However, in this episode, we got to see …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Doomsday TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Doomsday, the 19th outing of this series, brings back Ford Rainey as the President of the United States. It’s a serious scene with just him. After the theme, everything turns frivolous as the Seaview crosses the equator and proceeds to …
Here Come the Brides: Democracy in Action
Here Come the Brides: Democracy in Action is a fun show and one I enjoy watching. One of the things I like about it is that the theme of the show changes two or three times, meaning that just when you think the story is about ‘this’, it turns. …
Supreme court of comedy
I watched a little bit of this show last night. I was just flipping through the channels on television because I couldn’t sleep. I found this show and it was one of the funniest shows I have seen in a long time. Usually I don’t like this type of …
Doctor Who: Season 2, Episode 12: Fear Her
I didn’t have high hopes for this episode. From what I’ve read, I got the impression that this was supposed to be one of the stinkers of the series. Honestly, it’s not that bad. It’s not great, to be sure, but it has a lot of …
The X-Files: Season 1, Episode 23: Roland
On its own merits, this episode is not half bad. The one major drawback is that the plot is very, very similar to that of the last episode. While comparison between this and “Born Again” were inevitable, I can’t help but feel like the producers made a …
Exercise TV On Demand
My New Year’s resolution this year was to get healthier and workout more regularly and this is the one year I have actually stuck with my resolution, a lot of this is due to the On Demand Exercise TV that Comcast offers. I have always had On Demand but …
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 …
Beauty and the Beast TV show
As a person whose a big fan of police dramas and classic love stories, I was skeptical about this show at first; though I decided that it wouldn’t hurt to give it a shot since Kristin Kreuk stars in it. Figured since she was a pretty good actress in …
M*A*S*H: The Abduction of Margaret Houlihan
The title of this episode is slightly misleading, since Margaret isn’t abducted at all. Still, in M*A*S*H: The Abduction of Margaret Houlihan, everyone but Corporal Klinger (Jamie Farr) thinks that is what happened to the missing major. In reality, she went to deliver a Korean woman’s baby. …
Tales of the Gold Monkey: Last Chance Louie
I like seeing Roddy McDowall getting some meat to his part and that’s exactly what happens in Tales of the Gold Monkey: Last Chance Louie. McDowall was a great actor, and while he loved to act and took on all kinds of roles that some might question, he …
Mine Your Own Business
I’m still watching Scooby Doo Where Are You episodes with my daughter and got to see one I honestly haven’t ever seen before “Mine Your Own Business.”
This one turned out to be halfway decent. The gang is driving someplace (I didn’t catch where when they said it) and, because …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Invasion of the Secret Santas
The cold open has a villain named Sportsmaster hijack a bowling tournament, claiming that bowling isn’t a real sport and that the prize money should go to someone more deserving, namely him. He’s not completely without honor though as he insists that he won’t steal the money, but …
Fireball XL5: Planet of Platonia
On the DVD set, Fireball XL5: Planet of Platonia is actually the third episode, so I don’t know if maybe it was produced early and saved for a later airing or what. It aired as episode 13 in early 1963. It’s possible the DVD order is just out …
Stargate Atlantis: The Prodigal
Stargate Atlantis: The Prodigal, a fifth season episode, begins with Woolsey confronting Ronon about not filing mission reports. It then shifts to Sheppard and McKay racing remote control cars down a corridor where they run into Teyla who is trying to get her baby to sleep. It’s …
Khana Khazana
The Khana Khazana is the name of the cookery show, which is being telecasted on the Zee TV. The Khana khazana is a different kind of cookery show because by watching this programme we can learn how to cook and we can also learn some very good tips. …
Law and Order Criminal Intent/SVU
Above you will notice the names of two of the Law and Order series. Criminal Intent and SVU or Special Victims Unit. I know there is another one but I haven’t seen it in so long it’s not part of this review. In fact I have seen the Law …
Star Trek: Is There in Truth No Beauty? TV Show
Diana Muldaur returns for her second Star Trek appearance in season three’s Is There in Truth No Beauty? Airing in 1968, her character this time around is Dr. Miranda Jones, who is the telepathic interpreter for Medusan Ambassador Kollos. Kollos is all energy and looking at him …
Highway Patrol: Hired Killer TV Show
From June 1957, Highway Patrol: Hired Killer was one of the last episodes of the police drama’s second season to air. It was definitely watchable, if only for the curiosity about the title character, the unnamed killer.
Len Hendry played a hired gun who shows up to take down …
Conspiracy Theory with Jesse Ventura
When I saw there was a show called Conspiracy Theory and it starred former wrestler/governor Jesse Ventura; I was intrigued. Unfortunately, it came on at the same time as one of my favorite shows so I didn’t get to see it when it first aired.
I finally got a chance …
John Adams Episode 2 “Independence”
John Adams Episode 2 Independence has John Adams debating with the Continental Congress about independence and separating permanently from Great Britain.
This episode was incredible as I learned a lot about how John Adams wanted independence for America. It also had a terrific speech he gave and …
Kekkaishi Episode 1 (Anime)
Kekkaishi Episode 1 is an anime about a boy named Yoshimori Sumimura who is 14 years old. He, along with rival girl Tokine Yukimura defends their school called karasumori from supernatural entities at night.
This episode is pretty good, it does a very good job of explaining the story …
Bones the TV Series
This is my all-time favorite TV shows. I am waiting impatiently for September 17, 2009 for the announced premiere date of Season 5. Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) works side by side with Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) in solving FBI crimes where the remains are bones. This is based …
Adam 12 - Log 95: Purse Snatcher
Log 95: Purse Snatcher is the third episode from the third season of Adam-12, NBC’s hit police drama. Adam-12 is one of the shows that I refer to as Webb-TV, meaning it came from the mind of Jack Webb. It has a story to tell and it …
Heroes TV Series
About a month or two ago I was kindly asked to tune in to NBC on a Monday night at 9pm EST to watch am episode of Heroes, where, some human beings had super powers. Typical of a comic book and the inter weavings of story lines, short plots …
The Sing-Off: Night One
Recently, NBC hosted a four-part program hosted by Nick Lachey where different amateur acapella groups performed. These groups had to essentially sing and make their own music. In other words, it had to sound like there was a band, when there really wasn’t.
The show was a variation …
The Golden Girls show
How on earth did some of the discussion on the Golden Girls manage to sneak by the censors? Maybe it was because the show featured four acclaimed actresses then in their golden years so the innuendo and raunchiness snuck by them or immobilized them completely. All I know is …
That Girl: He and She and He
One episode I’m really not fond of at all is That Girl: He and She and He, a second season entry. This brings back the character of Noel Prince, the British photographer from the two parter earlier in the season. In that outing, Noel went after Ann …
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 48 (Anime)
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 48 begins with Lan Fan literally tearing Gluttony apart with her new automail arm, she and Ling constantly attack Gluttony, killing him repeatedly while Fu explains why they’re here and Ed asks Fu for assistance against Pride.
This episode can only be summarized with one …
The Simpson’s: Little Orphan Millie
Well, that was an interesting episode of the Simpson’s last night “Little Orphan Millie” but it really wasn’t quite as funny as I would expect from this show.
Milhouse’s parents finally get back together after being divorced for a couple seasons. But, on their honeymoon, they fall overboard on a …
PBS KIDS Channel
TV is a all time favourite for everyone. But watching today’s shows with family is not a good idea. There are lot of shows that are not kid friendly and have a negative impact on kids. Not every channel has kids programmes and there is nothing much for toddlers to …
That Girl: At the Drop of a Budget
Hypnotism is at the center of That Girl: At the Drop of a Budget. It opens with Ann Marie asking her boyfriend, Don Hollinger, to put her on a budget. Though he’s afraid it’ll lead to a fight between them, he goes along. The story takes …
