There are all kinds of reality shows on today, and many are crime related. One of the series I’ve learned to enjoy over many of the others is Call 911, which airs on the Discovery ID channel.

There’s a dramatic opening to Adam-12: Log 66: The Vandals when Officers Pete Malloy (Martin Milner) and Jim Reed (Kent McCord) pull over two men and one of them pulls a gun. That gets your heart pumping. What I notice most, though, is that the character of …

The Salt Water …

For its 29th episode of season 6, Have Gun - Will Travel presents a very poetic show called The Lady of the Fifth Moon. I have a few thoughts about this episode, and they follow.

However, I may have discovered the books first. I’m just not sure.
Happily, …
