Battlestar Galactica: Sometimes a Great Notion
I was as excited as any fan for the return of Battlestar Galactica, but I also knew that this first episode wasn’t likely to be a fun episode. That isn’t to say that it isn’t good, it was an excellent episode, but I can’t say that I enjoyed it.
This …

Sea Hunt: Girl in the Trunk TV Show
From 1958, Sea Hunt: Girl in the Trunk is a bit of a different story, and that’s partly what makes it interesting; that is, interesting to a point. What was a potentially good and different show turned into a murderous soap opera, and that was sad and disappointing.
The …

The Simpsons: Natural Born Kisser

Have Gun - Will Travel: Odds for Big Red TV Show

The Defenders: Nevada v. Cerbone TV Show
The Defenders: Nevada v. Cerbone had some real annoying moments for me. Mainly, it revolved around James Belushi and his character of lawyer, Nick Morelli. In this hour long episode, Morelli is on a diet, so he is frustrating and annoying everyone in his law firm.
Aside from …
