The Andromeda Strain is a television movie that aired on A&E or Arts and Entertainment on Memorial Day of 2008. The movie was advertised for several weeks before it ever turned up on television and they continued to push it as the movie event of the year. Unfortunately I …

As I mentioned before, my wife and I are watching the first season of the show Ghost Hunters on DVD and watched the second episode, Mishler Theatre, last night.
This episode really wasn’t the most interesting when it comes to paranormal phenomena. They didn’t find any evidence of anything at …

I’m not a huge fan of Shonda Rhimes. For everyone that doesn’t know her, she is the creator of shows like Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice and Scandal, she likes to mix her characters and give a lot of drama to their lives. I’ve seen a lot of her shows and …

Just like the pilot did, this episode centers around the existence of extra-terrestrials. Whereas the pilot focused on the phenomenon of abductions, this one put more of an emphasis on the conspiracy theories that the military is covering it up and running tests on alien technology.
Not surprisingly, Mulder …

In the last episode Chris and Ray got shot but McManus who wanted to revenge for arresting his sister. Sam was working undercover in his gang. The episode starts when the ambulance brought Chris and Ray to the hospital, Ray is conscious but Chris is bad wounded. I must …

“The OCU Or The PADO” is the episode of Two And A Half Men originally airing on CBS on March 9, 2009. This was another mediocre episode that marks the downhill slide of this once consistently funny program.
Pros: There were a few funny lines. Alan’s question to …

CSI New York Season 2 Episode 13 - Risk
Yet another great episode of the show. In this episode the team must find the killers in two very different cases. In the first case, Danny sees a body on a the subway tracks while taking a ride home. The …

I recently had the opportunity to get a free month’s trail of Netflix. I liked it so much I decided to keep just not at the plan that I originally signed up for. I had signed up for the unlimited streaming plus one DVD at a time for $9.99 …

I finally had a chance to sit down and watch Scooby Doo Christmas with my daughter last night (it was on TV the other night but it was a school night so I taped it for her). It turned out to be a halfway decent TV special.
Basically, Scooby and …

Season ten of Stargate SG-1 plods forward with an episode called Company of Thieves. About the best moment here is when Daniel is in control of the Odyssey. Of course, he’s flown the Prometheus and various Goa’uld vessels, so commanding the Odyssey should be a piece of …

Recently, I acquired Wagon Train - The Color Season DVD set. This set contains every color episode of Wagon Train, which was essentially the 1963-64 TV series. All shows were ninety minutes long. This was the year that Robert Fuller joined the cast after a four-year …

From 1958, the opening episode of Highway Patrol’s final season on the air, its fourth, was called Frightened Witness. The title is a little off as it should have been Frightened Witnesses. That is because there were two scared folks, a couple named Carl and Jennifer Stone. …

Inspector Gadget is presented with the task of safeguarding advanced computer parts that are contained within the cargo hold of a passenger train until they reach their destination. Dr. Claw however intends on hijacking the train and pilfering …

I usually like watching episodes of the classic show MASH. But, the episode Requiem for a Lightweight is one I’m not a huge fan of.
This is the episode that features Trapper getting involved in a boxing match with a giant sergeant from another MASH unit in an effort to …

Would you rather win the lottery, or be given a job as host of Top Gear? For me, I’d take the job. I haven’t seen the American version of the show on the History channel yet, but the British version of Top Gear has to be the best thing …

I had rented some episodes of “The Boondocks”, a cartoon that comes on Adult Swim TV on Comedy Central. In seeing the previews for “Moral Orel” I was hooked. “Moral Orel” is a claymation television show that looks for all intents and purposes like a real …

When I read about a new supernatural procedural show through the writers mailinglist, my initial thought was, it was probably something along the vein of the TV show “Dresden” but broader in scope since Dresden was a wizard interacting with the police department. I thought maybe a private investigator with …

Wow, who knew a clever show like Mork & Mindy would have gone down the road so many other shows have gone down; doing it’s own version of It’s a Wonderful Life?”
“It’s a Wonderful Mork” isn’t too bad but it’s still something that has been done before. How many …

When I watched Friday’s episode of Monk “Mr. Monk Paints his Masterpiece,” I found myself extremely disappointed. I’m not sure if the writers are running out of material or if maybe they want other cast members to get more recognition but this episode was no where near as good …

Something strange is happening to all of the hunters. One by one is getting killed. Sam, Dean and Bobby get together to solve the mystery. Bobby finds out that it is ‘The Rise of The Witnesses’ and they need to make a spell to send the ghosts back to …

It was kind of strange watching a House episode without character James Wilson having at least a small part in it; as was the case with the episode Adverse Events. I certainly hope they aren’t writing him off the show completely and he’ll be back soon. It’s just not …

If you are a single lad, or a lad that has recently started seeing a new girl, then I have seen a t.v show that would really put me off the idea of ever being in a relationship again. Meet The Parents on E4 is where a lad can …

Fox Sports Sunday NFL Pregame Show with Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan.
These fun loving, yet well versed sports legends do a great job at turning sports news into a good time had by all. These personalities are well prepared and eloquent speakers as …

This episode was the premiere for season 4 and concluded what was started in the last episode of season 3.
Jack, Sam and Teal’c return home after saving the earth from the replicators. While they believe they have gotten rid of the replicators one survived and landed in a …

I was watching a season 17 episode of the Simpsons yesterday, Bonfire of the Manatees. And, while it was somewhat funny, I thought it was actually a bit low-brow for a show that is usually so much better.
The lead-in to the show was kind of cute. Homer blows a …

Notorious is an hour long program that airs each and every week on The Biography Channel. I try to watch Notorious, although I can not say that I am able to catch this program every time it airs. I like Notorious because I learn about people that I had …

The song “Baby Come Back” is playing in the background in this series of commercials. In one, a woman is using the Swiffer—which happens to have its own squirting mechanism that helps to clean the floor much easier. But once the woman gets to a …

In Stargate SG-1: Cure, we get more history of the Tok’ra. In fact, we meet their queen, who has been used as a laboratory rat of sorts for ages by the Pangorans, who claim ignorance once the discovery was made.
It becomes a bit of an ethical debate. The …

The Jetsons is a great TV show that started in the 60s. But later there were more shows made in the 80s and the re runs were shown for decades. This is a great show, and I really love how they thought the 21th Century was going to be. The …

If you have yet to see the new Fox TV show, ‘The Moment of Truth’ you are missing out. To even think that a person could get paid for telling the truth seems crazy. But that is exactly what this show is all about.
On the …

Ok, the first episode of Ghost Hunters that is on disk 3 of season two is an absolute joke. I like this series but the episode, entitled “Two Houses” was basically as boring as the others I have seen this season.
The team is called in to investigate two houses. …

In M*A*S*H: Mad Dogs and Servicemen, we meet Rosie for the first time. She gets a bigger part as the show continues. She’s been mentioned a time or two for having a place just outside the camp. This, though, is the first time that we see …

Hallejulah! Bring ‘Em Back Alive: Storm Warning is the final episode of the series. I don’t think I’ve been this glad to see the last episode on a DVD in a long, long time, but that’s how boring and ineffectual this TV series was.
In reality, Storm Warning …

In the opening segment of Due South: Perfect Strangers, as the action begins, Royal Canadian Mountie, Constable Benton Fraser lands on top of Diefenbaker, his wolf dog, who milks every inch of his paw’s injury. Fraser thinks maybe he hasn’t been paying enough attention to the wolf. …

Stargate SG-1: Revelations is a show I just can’t stomach much. It’s the last episode of season five and the first without Daniel Jackson, unless you count the mystical look at the end in an unspoken ‘oh, Daniel’s here’ type of moment.
Basically, in Stargate SG-1: Revelations, SG-1 learns …

Season nine of Stargate SG-1 comes to a dramatic close with an episode entitled Camelot. Naturally, it’s a cliffhanger with the conclusion being the opener of the tenth season.
The worst thing about the episode is Claudia Black’s return as Vala, standing very pregnant as she watches destruction unfold. …

In That Girl: Black and White and Read All Over, Lou Marie (Lew Parker) finds out that Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell) has written a novel. Don’s a little depressed since he’s had 12 rejections that day. The novel was actually completed in the first season and resurfaces …

This is a great episode, and it was put into two parts. In this episode, Michael and his team continue to work on executing the escape plan from the prison. They have come to what they could be the final stages in the plan. In …

William Shatner gets to have some acting fun in Star Trek: The Enemy Within, portraying Kirk in two different ways. The events surround a transporter malfunction that caused Captain Kirk to turn into two people. Actually, what it does is take his stronger self and makes it …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Deadly Waters, episode 7 of year 3, guest starred Don Gordon as Stan Kowalski. This show proves that if you can stick it out long enough, being a recurring character can get you your own story. Del Monroe has played …

I didn’t care much for this episode. It was an old case for an old agent who had retired. The retired agent was not very friendly with the team so it made the whole case extremely strained. Naturally in the end he caught the bad guy and probably went …

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 …

South Park is often known for its irreverent humor. The newest episode, and the last new one of the decade, has the boys going to a water park.

What I liked about this episode: There are way …

The Twilight Zone: Uncle Simon is a show that I can’t stand watching. It just feels like it doesn’t matter, like it’s a show that makes no sense. It’s just out there. There isn’t a message really; it’s just a piece of drama that has a …

Two months ago I saw the poster on this new TV series in an article on the internet about Dracula and how they have made a new TV show about the character. and I immediately became interested in it. I have always been a fan of the character of …

From the first time I laid my eyes on a South Park episode I was instantly hooked! Seven years later I am sure not to miss a single episode of the latest season, season 12, and cannot help but wonder just how these guys keep coughing up their creative …

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 …

I ended up taping the new Law & Order SVU season premiere “Trials” Tuesday night and finally got a chance to watch it yesterday afternoon. While it wasn’t a bad episode, I do think the series might be starting to decline a bit.
This episode focused on a young boy …
