In CHiPs: Crack-Up, Jon is injured chasing a couple of drag racers. We get some good time angst for a few minutes while we wait to find out the results, like we didn’t know he’d pull through. I love this kind of stuff, though. All that …

I was looking forward to seeing the one-off drama ‘Worried About the Boy’ and I think it was one of the best things on television lately. It re-enacts the story of how Boy George, of Culture Club fame, rose to fame back in the early 1980s but I …

At long last we are getting into the real juice of this series with edge-of-your-seat action and exciting thrills that make you beg for more as soon as you can get it. Sasuke is still paralyzed by fear, which is a nice change to see, but this episode won’t …

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 …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Odds for Big Red, the fourth show of season five, gets right to the action, and I question it. It is funny to me that Paladin has a lot of imperfections. Maybe that’s why the show worked. He’s almost an anti-hero, …

One thing I really like about this anthology series called The Veil is the authenticity I feel from it. I think that comes from it being a product of Hal Roach. The sets are very detailed and even remarkable. Even the costumes seem to fit the …

Two’s Company was an unsold pilot that starred Marlo Thomas and Ron Hussman as a married couple named Bob and Caroline. Hussman is a lawyer who in the pilot went in to ask for a raise, was denied it, and, feeling unappreciated, quit. A former model, Caroline …

I do enjoy Stargate SG-1: 48 Hours, but it’s one more Earth-based story, and it’s yet another one where the team is divided up. One misses the vintage years when SG-1 went exploring, and they were truly a team.
Here, Teal’c finally gets his revenge. Let’s all cheer! …

I really enjoy this show, when I get a chance to see it. It is about a pizza delivery boy named Fry, who inadvertently gets frozen and wakes up several centuries into the future.
He gets a job working for his great-great-…-nephew as a delivery boy around the universe, and …

From February 1960, which was its third season, Sea Hunt: Missile Watch starred Lloyd Bridges as diving expert, Mike Nelson. This show was pretty interesting to watch. That said, I felt Nelson made a couple of dumb moves that made no sense to me at all.
In Sea …

First of all, owning the Fireball XL5: The Complete Series DVD collection is something I’ve wanted for a long time. It’s a feel good, science fiction, and sentimental thing for me, so watching these shows again was really wonderful.
The five-disk set have a collector’s box that they fit …

When you watch the World’s Wildest Police Videos on Court TV, you can believe that some people really do get their drivers licenses either by mail order or out of a box of Cracker Jacks. You get to watch actual videos taken by dashboard cameras in police cruisers or …

China Beach: Lost & Found Part 2 was the tail end of the first outing for this dramatic series as it entered its second season. As was always the case for this groundbreaking series, there was a lot going on throughout the hour.
The show revolves around the nurses …

Jericho is about that futuristic time that we all dread - attack of another country (or countries). At the beginning there is are bombs set off …

I am generally not a fan of zombie movies because they’re ususally very low budget and very terrible. Infact I can count on one hand how many zombie movies I’ve actually liked. The “Walking Dead” is different since not only is it the 1st zombie television series I’ve seen, …

How can you not love this show? I admit, being from the church background that I was, I was NOT going to watch this! But I did. And I fell in love.
My favorite character is Samantha. I LOVE Kim Catarall! I love how she is so confident and nothing …

This season three episode of Stargate SG-1, called A Hundred Days, is one of my least favorites ever. While parts of it are well worth watching, I just don’t buy into much of what happened and most especially the final scene.
In Stargate SG-1: A Hundred Days, the team …

This episode of Stargate SG1 delved further into Teal’c’s past. Teal’c had told Stargate command that he did not have any ties to his past life and was free to be a warrior for the Tauri but that was not really true. In Bloodlines, we find out …

From its first season on the air, The Andy Griffith Show: Andy the Marriage Counselor was a solid outing, more for its side gag than for the actual plot in my opinion.
When the show starts, we see Deputy Barney Fife reading “The Art of Judo” after which he goes …

The Twilight Zone: A Thing About Machines is a really odd show. Actually, I can see how the humor aspect of the episode works. I can even see the Future Shock elements, but it’s still an odd outing for this series.
Basically, the story has a wealthy man …

I came home for lunch today and the Home Improvement episode “Satellite on a Hot Tim’s Roof” was on. And, it is great.
There are two storylines going on in this episode and the writers managed to pull off both without taking away from either of them.
First, Tim gets a new …

The Event: I Haven’t Told You Everything was a riveting hour of action. This is a show you can’t miss, and that includes looking away for even a moment.

“The Surprus” is an episode of The Office originally airing on NBC on December 4, 2008. This was a rather bland episode but it did have some subtle funny moments sprinkled throughout from a variety of characters.

Well, I got a chance to watch the Family Guy episode “The Courtship of Stewie’s Father” again last night and have to say it is one of the funnier episodes I have seen from this series.
Basically, Peter is trying to spend more time with Stewie. Of course, the only …

Did you guys manage to watch Felicity Huffman on Ellen for this year 2009 interview? I did and it was a good one and funny too. Both Ellen and Felicity are very funny people and they are both witty and charming. Felicity is one of the best …

Believe it or not, even tennis guru Bobby Riggs was worthy to be the Man of the Week on The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. It’s amazing who they honored, and that’s not always good. Martin had a few good opener zingers, including some about the big Billie …

This is a weird show for me. On the one hand I like it but on the other there are so many things wrong with it I feel a little silly for liking it. Absolutely Fabulous is an English show and that means all it’s humor is …

When I first looked at the description of the TV show Unusuals before deciding if I wanted to watch it, it seemed very promising because of the actors cast in it. These are very experienced and talented actors who have proven themselves over and over again and were sure …

Boston Legal stars James Spader and William Shatner
This show could have easily been another dull lawyer show but these two actors and the weekly introduction of weird characters make this a comedy hit. I remember The Practice and seeing James Spader introduced to that cast list. …
