M*A*S*H: Television’s Serious Sitcom
In 2002, the Biography Channel did a very nice review of the M*A*S*H comedy series called M*A*S*H: Television’s Serious Sitcom. The smash show ran for 11 seasons on CBS. Narrated by Bill Mumy, numerous then-current interviews were done with many of the show regulars and powers that …
Tabatha’s Salon Takeover
Last year, a blonde with a wicked attitude by the name of Tabatha Coffey was one of the contestants on the BRAVO reality series, “Shear Genius”. I couldn’t stand her. She was very brazen and highly critical, and I didn’t agree with much of her assessments about …

Friends Episode: Phoebe the Massage Assistant
Friends Episode: Phoebe the Massage Assistant is really super funny, hilarious and there are just no words to describe how truly funny she is. I think she is really original and in Friends, she goes through so many paths of careers and the part where she works as a …
Battlestar Galactica: Saga of a Star World
When I was growing up, my family never missed an episode of the television series Battlestar Galactica (the original series not the remake). But, because I would have been about three when it first aired, I had no memory of the first episode “Saga of a Star World” so …
A Taste for Death - Part 3
There were a few good moments in A Taste for Death - Part 3 as Inspector Adam Dalgliesh (Roy Marsden) continued to try and solve the circumstances surrounding the death of Sir Paul Berowne, who had died in a church.

Stargate SG-1: Zero Hour
I’ve often felt that the powers that be at SG-1 started season eight with a few good shows and decided to use all of them, even if the timing didn’t necessarily make sense. This episode, Zero Hour, seems like it should have been the starter once Jack was …
Family Guy TV Show
The teen-adult oriented cartoon comedy Family Guy is one of the funniest shows currently on the air. The creators of the show are absolutely genius.
The story revolves around the Griffin family. They are pretty much your typical American family yet they go through a lot of shenanigans. Every …
MASH: Hey Look Me Over
I thought I had seen all the MASH episodes that were ever made (they show it in re-runs enough) but came across one that was new to me; “Hey Look Me Over.”
This one was actually a bit interesting because you had two interesting stories going on at once. First, …
The Two Coreys: Episode 2.6 - All You Need Is Love
This is a rather…awkward…episode. It actually borrows a little from one of the last season’s episodes involving romance and dating. Haim is having trouble approaching women and finding the right one - Ring a bell? Well that’s the case here… again.
It’s Valentine’s Day and while Haim is out …
Family Guy: Running Mates
I watched the Family Guy episode “Running Mates” for the first time yesterday and found myself feeling unimpressed.
I’m not sure why, but this episode, which has Peter and Lois competing against each other for school board president just didn’t seem as funny as other episodes in the series. It …
Extant TV Show Season Two, Episode Morphoses
Morphoses is the second episode in the second season of Extant. One that I was eager to watch after getting off to a great start in the previous episode. My review will contain spoilers.
Unlike the first one episode, we’re not instantly thrown into a whirl of action. The second …
Underbelly
One of the biggest reasons I like the different Law & Order programs over other detective shows is I was always impressed that they would focus on solving the crimes and didn’t write in any romantic story lines between the detectives.
Unfortunately, last night, Law & Order SVU crossed that …
Highway Patrol: Hot Dust TV Show
Highway Patrol: Hot Dust, a third season episode from 1957, was quite interesting to watch. It concerned a young man named Harry Wells. He accidentally spills a container of radioactive material and then he panics. While he picks up the canister and places it in a …

CSI Season 5 Episode 13- Nesting Dolls
I thought this episode was really interesting, just from the point of view of the human drama of it. I don’t know if the investigation was really that interesting or exciting. I do know for sure that the acting like a Russian part did not go well. It was …
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 …
Scrubs: Our Mysteries
It’s the end of the..semester I guess. JD says it’s his last day and all of the students are filling in teacher evaluations.

House: Brave Heart episode
Last night’s episode of House, Brave Heart, wasn’t too bad.
After suffering through a long baseball game waiting for it to come on, I was a bit confused at first because it looked a lot like a cop show. But, it turns out the case involves a cop who comes …
TiVo HD DVR
If you haven’t heard by now that owning a TiVo will change how you watch television, let me say it again.
TiVo will change how you watch television! I know it can be a hard sell when you notice the $13 per month programming charge (which is on top …
Stargate: Infinity TV Show
As often happens, when a life action TV series gains success, the networks and powers that be will often try to capitalize on the popularity by producing a children’s animated series based on the plot. While some tend to stay true to the original series, others use it …
Battlestar Galactica: A Disquiet That Follows My Soul
Every episode of Battlestar Galactica is an experience and “A Disquiet That Follows My Soul” is certainly that. This show takes place shortly after The Battlestar Galactica discovers that earth was destroyed and people are still trying to regain their composure.
The president is having the most trouble, retreating from …
Stargate SG-1: Citizen Joe
Essentially, Stargate SG-1: Citizen Joe is the annual clips show. This time it revolves around a lot of non-SGC personnel. It opens with a barber named Joe Spencer showing up at Jack’s home and threatening him with a gun. It’s a funny bit on the surface. …

Stargate SG-1: Gemini
From an excellent episode to a not-so-excellent episode. This is the case as season eight of Stargate SG-1 continued, airing a show called Gemini. Now, there are some unique things about this show, but it’s all too predictable and, once again, everyone lets Sam off the hook. …
Band of Brothers Episode 8 “The Last Patrol”
Band of Brothers Episode 8 The Last Patrol has Easy Company in Haguenau and David Webster rejoins Easy Company and is shut out by his friends because he wasn’t there in Bastogne.

That 70s Show: Eric’s Birthday
I’ve been watching a lot of the later That 70s Show episodes lately. But, I have to say the original episodes are still the best. Proof of this is the episode entitled “Eric’s Birthday.”
This is one of the great episodes, before Eric and Donna become a couple (well, actually …
Mad Hungry with Lucina Scala Quinn: Lunch on the Go TV Show

Days of our lives

As a very young boy who hung out …
NCIS: Agent Afloat Season 6, Episode 2
This episode was mostly about Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo, or rather Agent Afloat Anthony DiNozzo. Anyone who is a huge fan of Michael Weatherly, like myself, enjoyed “Agent Afloat” tremendously.
There were two stories going on….which usually happens on NCIS. One was the investigation itself. Supposedly, a …

TV Episode for MacGyver: Collision Course

100 Million BC
I was flipping channels today and came across the Sci Fi television series 100 Million BC. Thinking it was the movie by the same name, I turned it on. Wow was I disappointed.
Normally Sci Fi comes out with some good shows. This was not one of them. Granted, I …
Spongebob Squarepants Season One - Ripped Pants
This episode by far is my favorite episode of Spongebob Square pants . Even as an adult I think that you can really enjoy and get into this show because he is funny and so darn cute. I started to watch Spongebob before any of my children …
Stargate Universe: Air Part 1
My interest in the Stargate Program is pretty much confined to the first eight years of Stargate SG-1. I did not like Stargate Atlantis and its affect on SG-1, and I suppose for much of the same reasons, I haven’t been interested in Stargate Universe, either. However, …
The World’s Tallest Children

Psych TV Episode: Disco Didn’t Die. It Was Murdered
My wife decided she would rather talk to her pretend friends on Facebook last night than spend any time with me so I turned on another re-run of the show Psych that I had not seen before. This time around, it was the season 3 episode Disco Didn’t Die, …
Tough Love Season 2
I watched the first season of Tough Love, and was a big impressed with the format. Tuning into the second season, Tough Love 2 has been just as entertaining. I was surprised, but maybe not so much that they brought back Taylor from the first season …

The Nemesis episode of The Fugitive is one of those I really like a lot. We meet Lt. Gerard’s son, Phil, Jr. The two have been driving back home from taking Gerard’s mother home when the police detective gets word that Richard Kimball has been spotted …
