Seinfeld: The Contest
One of the Seinfeld episodes I got to watch recently (for about the third time) was the episode entitled “The Contest.” If you have never seen this episode, or any other Seinfeld episode for that matter, you need to watch it. You’ll understand why this show was as popular …
40 Hottest Hotties of the 90s (VH1 TV show)
This VH1 segment was really interesting. I love it when VH1 does shows that reminisce over the 1990s or 1980s. They always pick out the most hilarious aspects of pop culture. This segment focused on celebrities who were the hottest things in the 1990s. Topping …
Planet Earth TV series
Once again the Discovery Channel comes through with a superb series. The Planet Earth series has without a doubt the most remarkable photography I have seen on a television “nature” series. The producers have spent an exhautive amount of resources in order to present the snapshots of the varied …
The Two Coreys: Episode 2.4 - Making Amends
The second season seems to be proving itself as a worthy successor to the first so far. Corey Haim takes a big step in the right direction by making apologies to everyone he’s ever worked with or known that he’s burnt bridges with. He does this by putting a …
Fort Lauderdale Christmas Pageant
This year, I watched a lot of shows I’ve never watched before. I’m not sure why, but I did a lot of channel surfing and found myself watching a few religious oriented channels that I’ve never tuned into before. It wasn’t the sermons I was viewing, but …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Phantom Strikes TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea struck gold with this second season show, the 17th of the year, called The Phantom Strikes. It’s absolutely one of the best episodes of the entire series, and I adore it. Alfred Ryder made his role as Captain Gerhart Krueger …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Contagion
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Contagion is one of season two’s more exciting outings and the reason I enjoy this episode so much is because it tells the story of a long-dead civilization that utilized remarkable technology and it is generally accepted that this civilization used such technology …
ABS-CBN’s Showbiz News Ngayon

The Cleaner: Chaos Theory
As The Cleaner: Chaos Theory went on, I kept wondering who it was who was playing William Banks’ old friend, Quinn. He was so familiar; finally realized it was Jeff Fahey. He was perfect for the part, but with the look he had, I didn’t recognize him.
The …
Doctor Who: Season 4, Episode 12: Turn Left
Just as “Midnight” focused on the Doctor and featured Donna in a minimal capacity, so too does this one focus on one character while leaving another one on the sidelines, though this time it inverts that formula. The focus is on Donna and the episode takes a look at …

Mr. Monk and the Bully
OK, the Monk episode Mr. Monk and the Bully still doesn’t live up to the standards set by earlier seasons of the show (I can kind of understand why there’s only going to be one more season of the series since they seem to be running out of storylines) …
Red Dwarf: Duct Soup
In this episode of “Red Dwarf” Cryton is upset about having a new female crewmate convincing himself that Lister is going to ignore him and even send him away if he doesn’t do something so he sets the power and backup power systems to go down.
The only way to …
South Park
South Park is a fun TV show, a very button-pushing parody comedy show, with lots of profanity and stuff designed to shock. I like it, though I can see why many don’t. It’s original, and very intelligent. The humour is a bit cruel for its targets, yet South Park …
Handy Manny
My family and I (my husband, our eldest son Kurt who is 3 and Josh our youngest who is 6 months) are going to be moving over to Spain towards the end of this year. We already have a place over there and my parents live over they’re …

Big Brother 12 - Week 1, Show 1 TV Show
I actually watched the very first episode of the original Big Brother in America. That first season was nothing like this show is today. For me, that’s a negative. I actually still find that first cast endearing, and I often wonder where they are today and how …
Stargate Atlantis: Enemy at the Gate
And that’s all they wrote for Stargate Atlantis with this last episode, Enemy at the Gate. After just five seasons, the science fiction series was shown the door with a promise for a made-for-DVD movie that to this date shows little sign of being realized; at least, not …
The Virginian: The Accomplice
The incomparable Betty Davis stars in The Virginian: The Accomplice. Davis was one of those movie stars who didn’t appear to have qualms about television. If she did, something compelled her to do these shows as she was in a bunch of TV series from the beginning …
MacGyver: Phoenix Under Siege
The Phoenix Under Siege episode of MacGyver is another good episode. It’s the return of Harry Jackson, MacGyver’s grandfather, as played by the talented John Anderson. It’s a special anniversary for the two, though not a pleasant one. It seems the two are planning to attend …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Emissary TV Show
From February 1988, The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Emissary is a show about a boy and his faithful dog. As a dog lover, I only want to ensure that nothing bad happens to the dog. The boy is named Martin and is played by Keram Malick-Sanchez. …
Launch My Line fashion design show
I love sewing and I love fashion design, so to have a negative review about “Launch My Line” weighs heavy on me. “Launch My Line” is a new fashion design show that premiered December 2, 2009, on Bravo. Bravo has several successful reality shows, and one most notable was …
The Twilight Zone: A Game of Pool TV Show
The Twilight Zone: A Game of Pool is another show I just don’t like watching. It’s a two-person episode from the third season and though the acting is good, I don’t care about the story. It can really be summed up by saying that it’s another one …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Passion
As far as Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes go, the episode Passion is one of the creepiest and saddest ones I’ve seen.
In this episode, we get a full understanding of what Angelus is capable of when he’s seeking to drive someone insane. First, he enters Buffy’s house and Willow’s …
The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Jack Benny TV Show
Jack Benny was the Man of the Week for this edition of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Benny was a hoot, a terrific comedian and actor. I thought he was great and always enjoyed watching him. He was definitely worth being one of this show’s honorees.
It …
Smallville: Shield TV Show
Season ten is the last for Smallville and this second episode of the year, Shield, further progresses the story towards Clark Kent becoming Superman. In fact, in this outing we get the first real use of the Superman name, and it actually comes from a surprising source.
Now you’ll …
Geico Commercial
I don’t know what Geico ad man came up with the idea of the talking gecko, but I can tell you, for certain, that nothing gets me to switch a channel faster than seeing another one of these insipid commercials.
Maybe it’s the thick Cockney accent of this loquacious reptile …
Baby First TV Channel
There is a new channel in our cable television channels. It is called Baby First. I think this channel is being offered for small kids or babies. The programs that you will find in this channel are not the same with the kids channel that we have. But all …

Alias Smith and Jones: Return to Devil’s Hole
Alias Smith and Jones: Return to Devil’s Hole continues the pattern in this first season of separating the two stars of this comical western series. They are together only at the beginning and at the end. As I’ve said before, that’s not a pattern I enjoy or …

Family Guy: Not All Dogs Go to Heaven
OK, I have to admit, tonight’s episode of Family Guy, “Not All Dogs Go to Heaven” was absolutely amazing. I was laughing so hard at times I was in tears and I think it is an episode I would watch several times again.
You have the main plot, where Meg …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Exorcism TV Show

I used to absolutely love listening to Wendy Williams on the radio! I stopped listening to her only because I was not in the car at the time she was on the radio anymore. So when I saw that she now has a talk show I was …
Gisele Bundchen on Ellen Talk Show
I like Gisele Bundchen’s accent so much. If you have the chance to catch the episode on Ellen Talk Show, featuring Gisele Bundchen, you have to not give this a miss.
Although I have read somewhere that she is a strict person and all that, I do think that she …

Diagnosis Murder: The Bela Lugosi Blues TV Show
Diagnosis Murder: The Bela Lugosi Blues should have been a show that aired in the month of October instead of in January, which it did in 1995, which was about midway through the medical and police drama’s second season. The title alone suggests that it’s an eerie outing, …
