That Girl: Secret Ballot
Secret Ballot opens on Halloween with Don Hollinger arriving in costume to tease his girlfriend, Ann Marie, better known as That Girl. The season three story actually has nothing to do with Halloween, but it was a nice way to acknowledge the event without devoting an entire episode …
In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration TV Show
From July 2010, In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration was held in such a small room (the famed East Room) with so many people crowded into it that sometimes it’s distracting. The stage is tiny, too. The edited program began with President Barack Obama …

Project Runway: A Look in the Line TV Show
Project Runway: A Look in the Line had an element that I’ve missed since the cancellation of Models of the Runway. On that show, the designers always picked their models for the next week and much of the time, they were told they had to pick new ones. …

John Adams: Reunion TV Show
Part four of John Adams, the HBO 2008 mini-series, is called Reunion. Following the end of the war, John Adams is back home once again, although not for long. This time, John eventually sends for Abigail to join him in Paris.
The scene where Abigail arrives is prolonged. …
The Three Bears cartoon
I really enjoyed this classic version of The Three Bears cartoon. It’s a golden oldie from decades back which has survived to continue to make children and adults smile and let go with some wonderful chuckles.
For me, there are variations in this tale that I don’t recall, so …
Laramie: Dark Verdict
When I watch Laramie: Dark Verdict, I can’t help but think about actor L.Q. Jones, who plays a friend of Jess Harper’s. At one point, his character is about to be hung. The reason I remember this is because I have some photo proofs that were taken …
The Good Guys TV show
Matt Nix, creator of the USA Networks series Burn Notice, has hit on a winning formula with his newest show “The Good Guys” on Fox. The series had a preview episode a week before the series premier and so far this show has been absolutely stunning.
The basic premise follows …
Highway Patrol: Stripped Cars TV Show
From Highway Patrol’s second season in 1957, Stripped Cars gave viewers a bit of something new, and that came by the unique crime scenario.
The action in this story surrounds George Bennett, the driver of a car carrier when he’s attacked and killed. Bennett was just in the way, …
Private Eye: High Heels and Silver Wings TV show
Lisa Jane Persky gets a chance to shine in Private Eye: High Heels and Silver Wings from 1987. Persky was a regular on this detective drama that didn’t last more than a half-season, and her part was that of the wacky, daffy, wannabe starlet that is very stereotypical …
Hogan’s Heroes: The Merry Widow
Well, yesterday’s episode of Hogan’s Heroes (on TV Land) was definitely an interesting one; at least more interesting than I thought it would be.
The episode, called “The Merry Widow” had Hogan and his team trying to smuggle out information relating to a new landmine. However, they get caught digging …
Star Trek: A Piece of the Action TV Show
Another of my top rated Star Trek episodes is from January 1968 and is a colorful show called A Piece of the Action. This is a fun take on the gangster era, and it’s just a hoot from start to finish.
There are so many great bits in this …
M*A*S*H: Cementing Relationships
I really can’t say all that much for M*A*S*H: Cementing Relationships, which to me is just an okay episode. There are two main plots going on. One deals with the 4077th’s quest to get a new floor for the operating room. Apparently, patients are getting infections …
Gargoyles Episode 2.5 The Mirror
Keith David has an awesome voice, there is no disputing this. Even so, I prefer the theme song before they added his voiceover speech. It’s not bad, but I think it worked fine as a solely instrumental piece.
This episode brings in Puck, who’s summoned by Demona to …
Jennifer Hudson / Dreamgirls
I am not sorry to admit that I am a fan of most reality shows. Although, lately the only shows I tend to watch is American Idol, Supernanny and sometimes Deal or no Deal. Last year Jennifer Hudson and Fantasia was and still is my favourite finalists. …
ASPCA (television commercial)
I am such a dog lover. So when I saw this ASPCA commercial, I was immediately struck in the heart. The music however, is what I think people will notice right away. The song comes on delicate piano and the sweetest female voice …
Criminal Minds Season 1 TV Series
I just got off after finishing all twenty two episodes of the TV series for the third time in a row. What I like best about this series is the humor of the characters which never fail to make me laugh. In the face of death and gruesome scenarios, …
That 70s Show: Celebration Day
Hey, another episode of That 70s Show that I haven’t seen before; Celebration Day.
I have seen plenty of episodes that took place after this one, but it is the first time I got to see the episode that pretty much changed the entire plot of the series.
Basically, you have …
Stargate SG-1
Stargate SG-1 followed the adventures of a U.S. Air Force team, titled SG-1, that was assembled to fight evil alien parasites, named Goa’uld, who use humans as hosts and for slave labor. The stargate, an interplanetary portal that was unearthed in the movie, was the team’s sole method …
LG 32″ 720P Television
I absolutely love my LG 720P LCD television set. Given to me as a surprise from a very special friend, I have faithfully been watching television magic on the 32 inch screen. The image quality of the screen is absolutely fantastic and very clear, conveying colors vividly and crisply …
Angel TV show
Angel is one of my most favorite TV shows. Not only is it entertaining, but it also proves to be very addictive. No matter how many episodes I watched of it, it seems like I can never get enough. The characters are very unique and very appealing, and some …
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) …
Road to Vegas - Family Guy Season 11
What would a season of Family Guy be without a Road to—¦ episode? They seem to have become part of the infrastructure of a Family Guy season over the last few years and one thing I have noticed is that they are, most of the time, some of the …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Long Way Home TV Show
Have Gun - Will Travel: Long Way Home aired in February 1961 and featured a really nice guest cast which helped to elevate the show in overall success.
In the story, Richard Boone portrays Paladin, our heroic gunfighter. How I love the opening bits in San Francisco. There’s …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Brisco in Jalisco
I really wasn’t that impressed with The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Brisco in Jalisco except for the opening scene that included Robert Fuller and Paul Brinegar as two of the tycoons who had hired Brisco County Jr. to work for their association. They are only in the …
The Duggars 17 Kids and Counting
The Duggars 17 Kids and Counting is a reality show on TLC and the Discovery Health Channel. This show is about a large family. This family has seventeen children, soon to be eighteen children. The mother is named Michelle Duggar and the father is named Jim Bob Duggar.
There are …
Naruto Special: The Four Leaf Clover
This episode never aired on TV, and was never released in Japan at all, and that was probably for the best. For reasons unknown to me Viz Media decided to release this episode as a special on their first Naruto DVD release in America. At least this episode had …
House: Unfaithful
OK, for the most part, last night’s House episode “Unfaithful” was a bit better than some of the more recent episodes in the series. At least we actually had a case that was baffling and the central theme of the whole episode rather than something that takes place on …
That Girl: Rain, Snow and Rice
In That Girl: Rain, Snow and Rice, Ann Marie (Marlo Thomas) and Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) get a big surprise from their friends and that means an impromptu trip to Connecticut during a rain and snowstorm.
Jerry Bauman (Bernie Kopell) and Margie get married. Is this the same Margie …
Dexter Season 6 Episode 4
Dexter has been my absolutely my most favorite show for many years. I love every minute of it. Season 6,, however, is not as entertaining as the previous one, though it is more intense and charged with meaning. Episode 4 of season 6 of Dexter was really, really …
Scrubs show
I am not someone who is easily amused or even laughs out loud daily, but a couple years ago I began watching a show called Scrubs and immediately became hooked. And this is putting it lightly. After downloading the 5 seasons that had come …
Two And A Half Men: The Devil’s Lube
“The Devil’s Lube” is the episode of Two And A Half Men originally airing on CBS on December 15, 2008. This episode was not one of the better ones, as it featured a needless cameo by Emilo Estavez playing Andy, Charlie’s womanizing best friend.
Most shows featuring star cameos …
Bones: The Goop on the Girl
A Bones tradition is ending the season with a Christmas episode. This year was no different. And, I will say the episode The Goop on the Girl was actually pretty entertaining.
Booth and Bones have to investigate the death of an exterminator who blows himself up during a botched bank robbery …
Naruto: Anime
Naruto is an anime show based on a character named Naruto. I used to like this show because it had good fights but I don’t really watch it anymore.
First of all, the name is really unoriginal. They named the show by a character. I don’t understand Japanese so perhaps …
Cable or Dish TV
With all the television options out there it is hard to know which one is the best or the right one for you. I have searched the three main ones in my area and have found which one is the cheapest and which one is the most reliable. …
The Simpsons Episode The Good, The Sad and the Drugly
I haven’t watched too many episodes of The Simpsons lately, other than some of the older re-runs that they show at 6 p.m. during the week. But, I did get a chance to watch a newer episode last night (though still in re-run); The Good, The Sad and the …
Greek: Season 2
I loved season two of the ABC Family television series “Greek” as much as I liked season one. Season two began in on August twenty six of last year 2008 with the episode entitled “Brothers and sisters”. I was looking forward to seeing this episode of Greek as …
In Plain Sight: Don’t Cry for Me Albuquerque
It comes on too late at night for me to watch it on a regular basis but the show In Plain Sight is slowly growing on me. It’s just too bad they had to take the tired old plot line where the main character gets shot; in the season finale …
John Doe: Psychic Connection TV show
The gore sneaks in again during John Doe: Psychic Connection. The show isn’t as bloody as many of its contemporaries, but when they do decide to show it, they tend to linger, and that’s what they do here when John Doe (Dominic Purcell) jerks away from his violent …
The Twilight Zone: Long Live Walter Jameson TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Long Live Walter Jameson is one of the shows I really don’t like much. A big part of that is the primary guest star, Kevin McCarthy, who is one of those boring actors in my opinion. I realize he’s done a lot, but for …
PBS channel
I have been watching this channel for about an year now. As a mom I find this channel excellent for all age groups. This channel promotes healthly habits and good behaviour in kids. It also has programs related to science,adventure and travel. To list the best, they are: Booh-bah,tele-tubbies,zoom,Arthur,Buster,Caillou,Clifford.
There …
Married with Children TV Episode: Married—¦.with Children
When I was younger, I used to watch the show Married with Children; mostly because it came on after the Simpsons. But, after a while, I did stop watching it. Recently, however, I have found it in re-runs on the weekend and have gotten hooked again.
I discovered yesterday that …
Wagon Train: The Story of Cain
Wagon Train: The Story of Cain is one of a handful of stories that I remembered for years after seeing it. So many scenes from this episode were stamped into my brain. It was just so memorable that I couldn’t wait to see it again once this …
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Steel Horses
For me, the real star of The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.: Steel Horses is Comet the wonder horse. I adore Comet in this show. There are some really good scenes with him in this episode.
The show deals with Brisco getting a look at the coming thing, …
Survivor television show
Survivor is a television show where contestants get dropped off in the middle of nowhere. They get divided in two tribes and compete for rewards and immunity from elimination. They then eliminate each other so that there is only two left. The previously eliminated contestants then …
