The Simpson’s: Great Wife Hope
I haven’t watched too many new episodes of the Simpson’s lately so I didn’t realize last night’s episode Great Wife Hope, was a repeat rather than a new episode (I looked it up this morning).

The Twilight Zone: The Howling Man TV Show

True Blood 3.03 “It Hurts Me Too”
The title of the episode in this case proved to be prophetic - after two very strong episodes, the third one didn’t happen to be the charm, quite contrarily, slumped down and simply didn’t provide the high quality, high speed drama of its predecessors.
Jason’s subplot, usually boring but, at …

What Not to Wear TV Show (U.S. Version)
I love the show What Not to Wear. At first, I thought the stylists, Clinton Kelly and Stacy London were mean and too harsh. They really tell the person what they look like and what’s wrong with what they look like. They use creative language to …

I look forward to the “After the Catch” rewind of the season for Discovery’s “Deadliest Catch”. However, this year, I was greeted with a not unpleasant, yet none too pleasing surprise. Mike Rowe was not the host. Like many others, I have become comforted by Mike’s voice. My little …
