CSI: New York Damned If You Do TV Show
Damned If You Do was the third outing for the seventh season of CSI: New York, and I can’t say that I liked their choice of opening song which was a throwback to Miami Vice. It’s so strongly associated with that show that I can’t believe the music …
Droctor Who season 1 episode 2 The End of the World
I thought this show was a serious one until I saw this episode. Well, this episode made me realise that this show is probably in the same category as Power Rangers and similar children Sci-Fi show.
In this episode The Doctor takes Rose 5 billion years in the future to …

Stargate SG-1: Exodus
The fourth season of Stargate SG-1 comes to an end with the cliffhanger episode entitled Exodus. There is a lot right about Exodus, and it makes for a thrilling view, even if not every bit of it thrills me personally.
The less than thrilling part for me is the …
Ghost Hunters International TV Episode: Amsterdamned
Synopsis: The GHI team investigates a house that is infamous for a reported 4 separate suicides in the attic and apparently causes bad luck for those who live there. They also investigate a former Nazi bunker turned into a museum.

America’s Best Dance Crew
I love dance shows. And I love programs that show the dancing skills of different kinds of people. Mario Lopez and his dimples host the show. And the contestants appears to come from all walks of life. Like many different dance show competitions …
Psych: The TV Series
I am not too fond of summer because of the dearth of good television shows. I end up making do with the slim pickings, and thus I am forced to sit through the television series Psych. Until now, I just cannot believe that it has survived for four seasons. …
M*A*S*H: Requiem for a Lightweight
M*A*S*H: Requiem for a Lightweight is the third episode of this landmark TV series about the Korean War. Starring Alan Alda and Wayne Rogers, the show focuses on their characters of Hawkeye Pierce and Trapper John McIntyre. It’s all a lot of craziness and jocularity, while also …
Emerald Point N.A.S.: Pilot Part 1
I remember back in the early 80’s when Emerald Point N.A.S. was about to air. I was very excited about the series for a number of reasons. My favorite reason for wanting to watch it was Richard Dean Anderson, who played Lt. Simon Adams. He sure looked …
Make Me a Super Model (Episode 2)
commented before that, while Make me a Super Model offered a few differences, it was pretty much the same show as other modeling shows that have been on television.
Further proof of this was offered in last night’s episode (number 2 overall). Like America’s Top Model, the models all …
CSI New York Season 3 Episode 2- Not What It Looks Like
This is a really cool episode on the show. The first story on the show, the one with the robbery of the jewellery store is really interesting. The crime itself is very sophisticated and the tools used to commit it are really unusual. The second story is kind …
Due South: Call of the Wild: Part 2
The bad thing about Due South: Call of the Wild: Part 2 is that it separated real Ray Vecchio from Constable Benton Fraser. With Vecchio recovering from being shot, that left Fraser and fake Ray to go after the villain of the piece, and that’s not really what …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Penelope TV Show
From December 1962, the 13th show of the sixth season, Have Gun - Will Travel: Penelope was an average episode in my opinion.
This particular program opened in San Francisco with Col. Oliver Lacey as played by Lawrence Dobkin studying Paladin who is engaged in a solo game of chess.
Lacey …
Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn: 9-15-10 TV Show
I never would have thought it in a thousand years, but I really enjoying this new cooking show that is part of the new Hallmark Channel Home block of daytime programming. It’s called Mad Hungry with Lucinda Scala Quinn and its September 15, 2010 episode was its …
Criminal Minds —“ Season One —“ Episode Nineteen —“ Machismo
This episode was set in Mexico. It wasn’t one of my favorites, but I will take two bad episodes out of twenty two. The unsub was killing elderly women. Who kills grandmas? That’s just plain wrong! But I guess that was the point. While it was fun to …
Law and Order SVU: “A Single Life” Episode
I just watched this particular Law and Order Special Victims Unit episode and was surprised to know that it was the second episode in season one and I had never seen it before that. A part from that what I found most interesting was the plot. At first, after …
Emperor’s New School: Cool Summer
Well, another episode of Emperor’s New School and I can see why the show lasted only two seasons on Disney.
The episode “Cool Summer” had a few funny moments but, once again, was kind of predictable.
Kuzco is on vacation on the beach with Pacha and his family and is embarrassed …
John and kate plus 8
John and kate plus 8 is a reality show about a young couple who have sextuplets and a pair of older twin sisters.
The show started when the sextuplets were just babies until today were their four years old. It just seems like i got addicted to this …
Centennial: The Shepherds
Centennial: The Shepherds, while still high quality, is probably one of the two I’m not that fond of when compared to the others. Again, I want to stress that the quality is top drawer, that the acting is superb, and the story taken from the James Michener mini-series …
The Choir: Episode 3 TV Show
This is the third outing of The Choir, the show in which a classically trained musician, Gareth Malone, has taken average students from an England school called Northolt and developed a choir out of them. This show begins at the start of the summer term, just after the …
War and Remembrance: A Living History TV Show
War and Remembrance: A Living History aired a couple of weeks prior to the showing of War and Remembrance, the massive mini-series which continued the story of the Henry family from The Winds of War.
A Living History is narrated by Robert Mitchum which is interesting because I recall that …
Hill and Gully Ride television show
The local television show and sometimes series “Hilla nd Gully Ride” had been going on for years on a certain local television channel on a Sunday evening before I stopped watching and never saw it air again. When I was much younger especially since I was less mature and …
Law and Order: CI Season 1, Episode 5
During the first season the show struggled a little bit and that becomes clear in this episode. The episode itself features a storyline surrounding a con artist from France. We first see a rich woman heading off to meet up with her lover for the night. When she arrives …
That 70s Show TV Episode: Surprise, Surprise
I missed the first couple minutes of the That 70s Show episode entitled Surprise, Surprise. But, even with missing the first part of it, I saw enough to know this was a pretty funny episode.
Basically, there are two main stories in this episode. First, Kelso ends up sleeping with …
The New Scooby Doo Movies TV Episode: The Haunted Showboat
As I think I mentioned a little while ago, my daughter was watching older cartoons on TV this past weekend and I had an opportunity to watch some of them with her.
One of the ones that really stuck out in my head was an old re-run of the show …
Sliders Double Cross
This could have really been a quite good episode of Sliders. It has a somewhat interesting take on some of the problems that face our own world (the idea of diminishing resources), a chance for our four homesick Sliders to finally make their way home as well as …
Legend of Korra, Avatar Series Anime

Pokemon (TV Show) - Pokemon, I Choose You! (Episode)

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
Prison Break Season 3 Episode 2- Fire/Water
The story continues as Michael tries to figure his way out in the Sona prison. Lincoln’s character is now taking a more active role in the series. I guess that makes sense, since he is on the outside. It’s too bad they made …
Star Trek: The Omega Glory TV Show
I have always liked Star Trek: The Omega Glory, primarily for that big speech Kirk makes towards the end. I love the Kirk orations. They’re so patriotic.
Once again, the catalyst is a missing spaceship. In this case, it’s the Exeter. Actually, the ship and the …
The Flash TV Season 2, Episode 10: Potential Energy
The teaser brought some worry for me because it showed the most used material of all and probably what all superheroes have nightmares - losing someone they love at the hands of their archenemies.
It was tried and tested and while this was scary, I wished the show came in …
Making the Band (MTV show)
I have two criticisms of this show. The first is with the show’s creator, Sean Diddy Combs. The second is with the performers. The show itself is not much different in that the focus is to create a band to go out and …
Mr. Monk Paints His Masterpiece
When I watched Friday’s episode of Monk “Mr. Monk Paints his Masterpiece,” I found myself extremely disappointed. I’m not sure if the writers are running out of material or if maybe they want other cast members to get more recognition but this episode was no where near as good …
Stargate SG1: In The Line Of Duty
This episode begins with SG1 and some other teams from the SGC helping some villagers who are under attack by gliders. As everyone is running around, gathering people and escorting them through the Stargate, Sam stops to help a man. When she discovers he is no longer …
Nighty Night show
Imagine if you found out your better half was dying of a terminal illness. A revelation like that is bound to do all manner of things to your mind, but you probably wouldn’t react like Jill Tyrell, the monstrous but somehow lovable lead of this terrific comedy. After finding …
Bones: Tough Man in the Tender Chicken
Well, that was a somewhat interesting Bones episode.
You have the heir to a chicken company winding up dead and tons of possible suspects in the murder ranging from the protesters outside the factory (because they built their homes by it then complained about the smell) to the guy’s wife, …
Glee TV series
I love Glee! I have always loved watching musicals and when something like this came out, I immediately saw to it that I watch the first TV show they aired.
I have been watching it ever since and has really enjoyed watching the Glee cast being introduced to the public. …
Criminal Minds: Exit Wounds TV Show
I’ve been watching Criminal Minds from the beginning, but I find that I am agreeing more and more with Mandy Patinkin who starred in this series originally and then left the show because it was too dark and upsetting. Sometimes I only half watch the shows which are …
Fairly Odd Parents: Power Mad
Well, at least the second episode in the Fairly Oddparents series isn’t too bad. This one, entitled “Power Mad” lets us meet Timmy’s best friends, Chester and AJ in a way that is kind of interesting.
Since he has fairies who can grant him just about everything, Timmy keeps wishing …
Stargate SG-1: In the Line of Duty
Stargate SG-1: In the Line of Duty is an okay episode, but quite honestly isnt’ a big favorite of mine. The main point of the story involves Samantha Carter becoming the unwilling host to what the SGC thinks is a Goa’uld. In actuality, this is the show …
Death of an Expert Witness - Part 6
Revelations and the long resolution of Death of an Expert Witness occurs in this sixth and final episode. We’ve been following the murder investigation conducted by Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh, played by Roy Marsden, into the death of Edwin Lorimer and, more recently, Stella ‘Star’ Mawson, who, as …
Star Trek: And the Children Shall Lead TV Show
Star Trek: And the Children Shall Lead is truly a show I’ve always remembered. I think it’s because as a kid Melvin Belli scared me to death. The famous attorney was somehow convinced to do this role where he plays this nasty being named Gorgan who …
MacGyver: Hellfire
MacGyver: Hellfire is another episode that I really enjoy. There are only four characters in it, five if you want to include the helicopter pilot who flies Mac to the remote location where his friends are. As a result, it ends up being a show that is …
