Gotham (2014) - TV Show
I love anything to do with the Batman universe. When I heard that a new tv show, Gotham, was in the works I was really excited, especially because it was to show the origins of many of the exciting characters in the Batman universe. In fact, the main character of …

The Elen Degeneres Show - Beyonce
I am a huge fan of Ellen’s talkshow, but i’m an even bigger fan of Beyonce. This week, Tuesday 25 November, Ellen’s guess was no other than Beyonce! Yup, Mrs. Jay Z herself! And to be honest, this is the first time i’m hearing her say yes she’s married, …
The Virginian: Nobility of Kings TV Show
The Virginian: Nobility of Kings wasn’t much of a favorite for me. It featured Charles Bronson as Ben Justin, a new rancher to the Medicine Bow area. He had a huge chip on his shoulder do and was one of those “I’ll do it myself” types, even …
From the Earth to the Moon - Part 12: Le Voyage Dans La Lune
From the Earth to the Moon - Part 12: Le Voyage Dans La Lune is the only segment not introduced by executive producer, Tom Hanks, in this HBO mini-series. Instead, the introduction is done by Blythe Danner. The reason for the switch is that this is the …
Law & Order SVU TV Episode: Manhunt

What I liked about this episode: There are way …
That Girl: The Snow Must Go On
I’ve talked a bit about the fashion in season’s four That Girl, and that’s why I get a kick out of the fact that in the first moments of That Girl: The Snow Must Go On, Don Hollinger walked into Ann Marie’s apartment and teased her about her new …
Good Day Xtra news show
I am usually an avid watcher of Fox Five news. But now they have a new show called Good Day Xtra. I was surprised to see that this show, which is on from 9am to 10am, features some of the anchors from the regular news program. …
Big Train - Series One
Written by the minds behind Father Ted and the IT Crowd, this strange sketch show that first debuted in the late 90s might at first be a difficult one to get into.
Essentially, here we have a sketch show with a difference. The main difference being, the punch line …
Mystery Science Theater 3000: Secret Agent, Super Dragon
Mystery Science Theater 3000 is a television show that premiered in the 1990s. In this comedic show, the characters, a man named Joel and his two robot friends, are trapped in outer space at the mercy of of the evil Dr. Forester and his sidekick, Frank. Frank …

Remington Steele: Steele Framed TV show
Remington Steele starring Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist was a really fun show that I enjoyed watching for most of its run. The Steele Framed episode was the fifth episode of the second season and actually began with the two leading characters celebrating the one year anniversary of …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Brotherhood TV Show
From January 1963. Have Gun - Will Travel: Brotherhood features a cute opening where Paladin makes cut out people out of newspaper as five Chinese youths watch; it’s just adorable. It truly made me smile. This Paladin is good with kids theme shows up again later when …
Running Wilde: Pilot TV Show
I watched the pilot for Running Wilde just to say that I’m giving some of the new comedies a chance. I really don’t like today’s sitcoms. They are rude and crude and so off color that they make me cringe. I’m much more into the traditional …
Sky Cable
A 500 pesos per month for having a sky cable is worth a try if you are bored watching on the local channels.
When I resigned from work, I started to live with my parents in Imus, Cavite. I am so happy that I can see now my parents …
Ghost Hunters
I try to keep an open mind when it comes to the paranormal. I don’t necessarily believe in ghosts but I’m more than willing to allow people to try to prove their existence to me.
That being said, even though I’ve watched several episodes of Ghost Hunters and have seen …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Clash
“Clash” is the 20th episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. The episode features Captain Marvel, Superman, and Lex Luthor in a battle of brawn and wits. This was a decent episode and it really worked to push forward the main storyline of the season.
Lex Luthor …
Celebrity Big Brother 2010 (UK)
I am engrossed in the UK version of Celebrity Big Brother 2010 which, as I write, has been running for just over a week on Channel 4, with a couple more weeks to go. This is the very last one so I am trying to appreciate it before …
Doctor Who: Season 5, Episode 9: Cold Blood
This episode picks up where the last one left off, with the Doctor attempting to make contact with the Silurians so that a treaty can be negotiated. Suffice it to say, it does not go well. The Silurians aren’t the most reasonable species out there, at least at …
Ghost Hunters: Eastern State Penitentary
We were watching another season 1 episode of Ghost Hunters last night “Eastern State Penitentary” and I have to say I was left less than impressed.
You would think a place like a prison would provide quite a few scary moments and even had some investigators running for their lives …
Family Guy TV Episode: Mr. Saturday Knight
I have seen bits and pieces of the Family Guy episode “Mr. Saturday Knight” before. But last night was the first time I actually had a chance to watch the entire thing. And, overall, I think it was a pretty good episode.
Basically, Peter is feeling depressed because he hates …
American Gladiators
When I was younger, one of the shows I used to watch on television was American Gladiators. And, for some time, I�ve been thinking some network should make an effort to bring the show back.
So, I was pleasantly surprised to learn NBC was doing just that.
After watching the first …
Hawthorne: A Mother Knows TV Show
This episode of Hawthorne entitled A Mother Knows begins with Isabel insisting that her baby, Moses, who is in foster care, is sick. They say that Isabel caused a scene. Then the baby goes missing, and that’s where the center point of the drama occurs.
I really was …
Stargate SG-1: The Warrior
Stargate SG-1: The Warrior is a Jaffa centered storyline. Once again, Teal’c gets caught up in something that isn’t exactly what it seems. He tends to leap before he looks much of the time. Here, he practically turns his back on Jack and SG-1 because of …
Rescue Me series
Rescue Me is a phenomenal television program, expertly melding the genres of comedy, drama, and brief snippets of action into a seething, emotionally driven and, at times, flat out hilarious portrayal of life for New York City firefighters, especially in the midst of the tragedies of 9/11. Actor/ Comedian …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Submarine Sunk Here TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Submarine Sunk Here, the tenth program of the first year, was spellbinding for its first quarter. I sat transfixed on the screen. The action was intense and dramatic. In fact, I’ll go so far to say it was gripping.
The …
Arrested Development TV series
The television series “Arrested Development” is not to be confused with the music group from the nineteen nineties with the same name. In fact I even heard on VH1 that the television series was almost sued by the music group after one of their members was watching the superbowl …
Medium series
This award winning show is based on the real life cases of Alison Dubois (a successful medium), having read her books I was eager to see how her life would translate in television land. Patricia Arquette plays the part of Alison Dubois really well and I’m glad …
Big Brother: Power of Veto 8/18/19 TV Show
The August 18, 2010 episode of Big Brother was the Power of Veto episode, and it was the most fired up episode of the season. In fact, I think there were more fireworks than just about any other episode.
What brought about the increased volume was that Brendon opened …
GirlFriends
Girlfriends is a very funny and cool show. I used to think it was dumb when I first watched it. But then I started liking it. The reason I got into it was because of Persia White. I thought she was very pretty. Then when I started watching the show …
Our New Girl Bro
JD’s gone for good. Interestingly enough, Elliot decides to come in and make an appearance. I’ve noticed that the writing for the returning cast is still pretty spot on, but it’s the new characters who kind of drag it down.
Ok, Lucy is pretty amicable and Cole is pretty …
The Twilight Zone: Hocus-Pocus and Frisby TV Show
Sitting around, chatting, and listening to fanciful tall tales. That’s the delight and center of The Twilight Zone: Hocus-Pocus and Frisby from 1962. It’s a fun story that includes some harmless stories and some naive aliens, as in aliens from outer space.
Here are a few thoughts about …
The Complete ‘Yes Minister’ Boxed Set (DVD 2004)
It is really hard to believe that this series was first broadcast on British TV about 30 years ago because the topics covered are as relevant now as they were then.
A comedy series but as they say - many a true word spoken in jest - and in the …
Bones TV Episode: The Parts in the Sum of the Whole
When I found out a couple weeks ago there would be an episode detailing the first case Booth and Bones had together, I was ready to watch it. It finally aired last night and I have to say I wasn’t disappointed.
There were a couple things I liked about this …
CHiPs: Name Your Price
In CHiPs: Name Your Price, Ponch (Erik Estrada) gets a chance to be on a game show that is something like The Price is Right. I don’t think I’m spoiling anything when I say that Ponch is right on for the entire show until he has to price …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 16 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 16 has an assassin named Udai with ties to Jet escaping from prison.
This episode was very good because it gives us Jet’s origin story and it’s very well done and very well written. I enjoyed watching this episode because it was so interesting and entertaining …
Due South: Mask
One of the things I really like about Due South: Mask is the Indian culture and lore that comprises a big part of the story. I’m always taken with the legends and such that are part of the very rich Indian heritage. This show is full of …
That 70s Show: Celebration Day
Hey, another episode of That 70s Show that I haven’t seen before; Celebration Day.
I have seen plenty of episodes that took place after this one, but it is the first time I got to see the episode that pretty much changed the entire plot of the series.
Basically, you have …
Tenspeed and Brown Shoe: Diamonds Aren’t Forever TV Show
The final episode of Tenspeed and Brown Shoe was called Diamonds Aren’t Forever. It’s really a shame this show didn’t catch on because both Ben Vereen and Jeff Goldblum were amazing to watch. The show was clever and witty, and while there was some ham and camp …
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 …
M*A*S*H: Tuttle
Tuttle is one of the all time best shows M*A*S*H ever did in my view. I love the cleverness of it and how it all played out. Early on, Hawkeye and Trapper are delivering supplies to Sister Theresa’s orphanage, and when she asks who was responsible, …
Semi-Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee
Semi-Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee is a Food Network cooking show. Sandra Lee is a hoot and her food dishes are easy to prepare. The semi-homemade part of her food show title is just that: you can prepare dishes at home with items that are already prepared, making your …
Spartacus:Blood and Sand
The new TV series, Spartacus: Blood and Sand is a TV series that can be seen on the STARZ channel. However, a couple of the first episodes have been leaked and let me assure you, they do not disappoint. There has been a ton of blood, sex, and violence …
Criminal Minds —“ Season Two —“ Episode Twenty Four —“ P911
Another pedophile case, only this one revolves around online pedophiles. Elle comes back from medical leave and its obvious she is still having issues. I mean who wouldn’t be. But she is on edge and its pretty bad, she disobeys Hotch’s orders and just goes around doing her own …
Stargate SG-1: Seth
Stargate SG-1: Seth is another episode that some of the actors of the series thought was pretty bad. The whole premise seemed weak to them, the idea of a Goa’uld still living on Earth and having achieved nothing but a tiny cult like following seeming ludicrous. Still, …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: All the Way
Buffy’s final Halloween centric episode is something of a mixed bag. While it does a great job in continuing the pre-existing character and story arcs to great effect, the story itself is weak and lacking. It certainly doesn’t manage to capture the playful essence of the holiday previously seen …
Project Runway: What a girl wants
If designing for the judges each week isn’t tough enough, Project Runway’s episode, What a Girls Wants, really sets the designers up for a reality check.
When Heidi announced they would be designing outfits for one of the most important events in a woman’s life, I figured the challenge would …
