Alias Smith and Jones Season 1 DVD set
The Alias Smith and Jones Season 1 DVD set is a book-like presentation with lovely photography and artwork. The ‘book’ slides into the cover box, giving it that book-like feel.
The ‘book’ itself opens up to display the DVDs. Unfortunately, they chose to put two DVDs on each …

Nana Televsion Show
Nana is the second anime I have seen by manga artist Ai Yazawa, an it lived up to all my expectations. I was highly pleased with the drawing style, the originality in design, the great choice of music, and the heart put into the storyline. It was …

Movies That Shook The World: 2001: A Space Odyssey TV Show
Movies That Shook The World: 2001: A Space Odyssey was an interesting look back at one of the most curious and alluring science fiction films ever made. With commentary, opinions, and remarks from those involved in the making of the classic movie and others who are mere fans, …
Rescue Me show
Rescue Me with Dennis Leary.
Dennis Leary did stand up comedy, I think, as a persona of the pessimistic character that is just an ugly drunk. Doing a series full of negative speaking characters is definitely a viewer’s nightmare.
The Show starts off with …
John Adams: Don’t Tread on Me TV Show
Don’t Tread on Me is the third installment of HBO’s mini-series, John Adams. It aired in 2008 and starred Paul Giamatti in the title role, with Laura Linney as Abigail Adams.
The thrust of the early part of this episode is how much John Adams ignores his family to …
Bones: Mayhem on a Cross
Last night’s episode of Bones, “Mayhem on a Cross” was, for lack of a better word, disappointing.
Normally, the idea of finding real human remains as part of a stage prop for a heavy metal band would be kind of cool. But, somehow, I feel the show kind of ruined …
The Virginian: The Executioners
When The Virginian aired originally, I just wasn’t a fan. It was a ninety minute show, in color, and starred Lee J Cobb, Doug McClure, Gary Clarke, James Drury, and Roberta Shore. Honestly, the shore bored me. I tried watching it, but I wasn’t attracted to …

Alias Smith and Jones: Exit from Wickenburg is a fun entry for the second regular episode of this western starring Pete Duel and Ben Murphy as outlaws Hannibal Heyes and Kid Curry. In this show, they become saloon managers after catching cheats in a card game. Susan …
Warehouse 13 season 1 episode 12 Macpherson
This was actually the first episode where I managed to resolve the case before the two secret agents Myka and Pete. In two previous episodes they tried to stop Macpherson, Artie’s ex partner from stealing artefacts but they didn’t manage to arrest him.
In this episode we learn why Macperson …
Care Bears
When I was a kid I watched many cartoons. Not many of them stayed with me however I do remember the Care Bears, I loved them as a kid and although I don’t love them now, it’s dwindled down to a mild like I think they are …
Psych: High Noon-ish
I like the show Psych and think it is one of the better comedies on TV right now. But, last night’s episode “High Noon-ish” was a bit lame by the standards I’ve come to expect from the series.
Shawn and Gus are recruited to help the owner of an old …
Law and Order Special Victims Unit “Disrobed” Episode
I thought this particular Law and Order SPecial VIctims Unit episode was a bit similar to the episode entitled “Payback” in the sense that it made some aspects of the trusted AMerican law a bit questionable to me in terms of what was wrong and what was right. ALso, …
Death Note Episode 28 (Anime)
Death Note Episode 28 begins with the members of the Japanese Taskforce trying to figure out what to do about Sayu’s kidnapping and how to get her back because they want the Death Note in exchange for Sayu’s release

The Dean Martin Comedy Hour: Don Rickles TV Show
Don’t be confused by the title of The Dean Martin Comedy Hour. Dean Martin began doing roasts on his TV show and they went over so well that they became their own unofficial series of sort — The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Those participants were usually labeled …
The X-Files Field Trip Episode
This episode of the X-Files was also one of my most memorable episodes. I found it to be a little confusing at one point and I didn’t think it was a work of genius either, but I believe that it was still quite enjoyable. In fact, I think …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Earshot
A few years ago, I remember hearing about a Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode that nearly got cancelled because it depicted school violence and the nation had just gone through the tragedy of the Columbine shootings.
I finally got to see that episode “Earshot” last night and have to say …
TV Guide Network
There is one thing that annoys me about the TV Guide network. When I want the channels to scroll faster, I realize just how slow it is. When I am actually trying to read what a program is about, it seems it flies up the …
Highway Patrol: Scared Cop TV Show
Highway Patrol: Scared Cop felt very odd to me. The story revolves around one of the members of the California Highway Patrol. He’s an officer on the force who is due for promotion, but when we first meet him, he’s making a stop of a speeding car. …
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Matter of Ethics
Have Gun - Will Travel: A Matter of Ethics continues with another one of the opening themes that so often happens. Paladin (Richard Boone) reads the newspaper, and we hear him reading it) and then sends his card, offering his services, for a fee, of course. In …
The Sweetest Apu
Well, if Simpsons character Apu can mess up and cheat on his wife, then you know all men have a problem. That’s just what happened in the episode The Sweetest Apu.
Of course, you really can’t blame him considering his wife is hot but probably is exhausted after taking care …
The Twilight Zone: A World of His Own TV Show
The Twilight Zone: A World of His Own was the final episode of the first season of this superb television series, and it was a real winner. I absolutely love this show. It’s fun, creative, and has such a cute ending. It’s just superb.
The primary guest …
Nip/Tuck
I just love watching Nip/Tuck. I have been a loyal follower of Seasons 1 to 4 and I can just give a two thumbs up for each and every episode. From the lead actors and the supporting characters to the star-studded guests, I can truly say that the show …
City Homicide
I follow this Australian police drama called City Homicide which deals with the homicides that an Australian police team of investigators try to solve. The homicides are complex, and most are not set in black in white. I struggled with the accent for several episodes, but now I find …
Trigun Episode 26 (Anime)
Trigun Episode 26 brings an end to the series; Vash finally confronts his brother Knives in a final showdown to put an end to his plan to wipe out all the humans on Gunsmoke.
This episode was awesome, there’s no other way to describe it. The gunfight lasts for …

Undercover Boss: Chris McKann TV Show
Chris McKann, president of 1-800-Flowers, was the center of the season finale of Undercover Boss. It was interesting to watch for a couple of reasons, one of which was the particular history of this flower company. Chris is the younger brother of the founder and CEO, Jim …
Harold and the Purple Crayon Pilot episode
This was the first of the episodes of this TV series on HBO. This episode was about Harold a little boy with a wild imagination. He uses his purple crayon to bring life to his imagination. The story is narrated by Sharon Stone and it begins at Harold’s bedtime.

House: Lucky 13
Well now, the episode of House entitled “Lucky 13″ certainly was intended to bring in ratings. After all, who can object to an episode that features Thirteen and one of her female lovers. I have to say it got my attention.
The case itself was actually quite dull. Another patient, …
Gargoyles Episode 2.5 The Mirror
Keith David has an awesome voice, there is no disputing this. Even so, I prefer the theme song before they added his voiceover speech. It’s not bad, but I think it worked fine as a solely instrumental piece.
This episode brings in Puck, who’s summoned by Demona to …
M*A*S*H: Henry in Love
M*A*S*H: Henry in Love is an awkward show because I just don’t understand the mentality behind all the marital cheater that goes on. It makes no sense to me, but that’s because I’m pretty traditional. What occurs in M*A*S*H: Henry in Love, is that Henry Blake (McLean …
Fullmetal Alchemist Episode 3
Fullmetal Alchemist Episode 3 begins with Ed and Al in a library looking for clues about the Philosopher’s Stone. Al finds an old book they read when they were little and we see a flashback of Ed and Al’s childhood with their mother Trisha.
