Stargate: Infinity: Coming Home TV Show
I really like the opening part of Stargate: Infinity: Coming Home which deals with the age old problem of prejudice. One of the members of Major Bonner’s team is named Ec’co. He’s a green, rather unusual alien being. However, he’s also a half breed. His …
Touching Evil: Entropy
Touching Evil: Entropy celebrates the third year of the OSC, the FBI unit which David Creegan works for, and they celebrate by having a party. Like their cases, the party is odd. It’s like everyone lost their sanity. Strange.
Throughout Touching Evil: Entropy, Creegan is looking for …
The Night Before Christmas
This animated tale, The Night Before Christmas, is not to be confused with the traditional Father Mouse story of ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. This is another tale that is more current, in the computer age, in fact, though it does still include a mouse family, only these …
Legends of the Wild Wild West
I am always up for a good western (leftover from a father who loved a decent cowboy movie). Being a woman, not only do I appreciate a good western, I appreciate a good cowboy with bad boy appeal, you know the kind that romance novels are written around.
“Legends …
The Fugitive: Man in a Chariot
The second season of The Fugitive began with a show entitled Man in a Chariot. It’s a powerful show that guest starred Ed Begley as a law professor with a huge chip on his shoulder, stemming from an accident that has left him in a wheelchair. Begley …
Big Brother: Eviction September 2, 2010 TV Show
The Big Brother Eviction show from September 2, 2010 was memorable for one very important reason: Matt had to deal with the wrath of those in the Jury House.
Viewers haven’t really seen much of the Jury House this season. The show used to make a big deal out …

Voyagers!: Destiny’s Choice
Jon-Erik Hexum and Meeno Peluce star in Voyagers!: Destiny’s Choice wherein their characters of Phineas Bogg and Jeffrey Jones have to convince Franklin Delano Roosevelt to continue with his political dreams.

Fashion Star is somewhat similar to Project Runway. The show is about giving unknown fashion designers the chance to show their clothes to the world, and the twist to this show is instead of winning a huge prize at the end like Project Runway, the prizes are given weekly …
The Jeffersons (TV Show) - Florence’s Cousin (Episode)
“Florence’s Cousin” is an episode of “The Jeffersons” where the audience gets a chance to briefly meet one of Florence’s cousins. Florence’s cousin really doesn’t get much character development and he only appears in the episode for about five minutes total. All that the audience learns about Florence’s cousin …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Touched with Fire TV Show
Weird is weird and that’s pretty much how I feel about The Ray Bradbury Theater: Touched with Fire despite the fact that it has a guest cast that includes Barry More and Eileen Brennan. Basically the plot of this August 1990 science fiction outing has two aging and …
American Idol
This is a fantastic show where three judges travel around different cities choosing the best singers to go and perform in Hollywood where contestants are eliminated every show until there is only one left standing: the American Idol. The beginning of each season is always hilarious as you …

How I Met Your Mother: Little Minnesota
“Little Minnesota” is the episode of How I Met Your Mother originally airing on CBS on December 15, 2008. This was a pretty funny episode of a very consistently funny sit-com.

So the Christmas special episode of the series Sherlock has been dominating the internet since its outbreak.

Buzz Aldrin’s debut on Dancing With The Stars season 10
I think watching Buzz Aldrin’s first dance on Dancing With The Stars season 10 was a surprising treat. I’ve followed a lot of the hype leading up to the show, and I didn’t have any high expectations of his dancing skills, but I was surprised, because I think …
Wagon Train: The Duke Shannon Story
Towards the end of the fourth season of Wagon Train, Denny Miller (then going by the name of Scott Miller) joined the cast as a regular. The Duke Shannon Story is his introduction to the show. The story begins with his grandfather, Henry Shannon, filling Charlie Wooster’s …
Ghost Hunters: Fortuna & Topton
I don’t know why but, even though I wasn’t the one driving to Philadelphia, I felt like I wasted a great deal of time watching the Ghost Hunters episode Fortuna & Topton.
I can see why Brian is no longer their case manager. He gets them some sucky cases. And, …
Black Gold: S3, Ep 6 TV Show
Black Gold, the show that airs on TruTV and follows the work crews of Big Dog Oil Rig 28, continued its third season with this sixth week episode that was a lot of yelling and shouting, combined with a tad of personal emotion.
One of the hot heads, Cheston, is …
Cougartown Season One Episode One
There is one word to describe the pilot of the television series Cougartown and that is awkward.
I’m not sure what i was expecting in a half hour sitcom about older women that prey on younger men but I know t wasn’t this.
The show is about forty something Jules who …
Star Trek: The Next Generation - Samaritan Snare
The second season episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, titled “Samaritan Snare” has a few comical moments to it, but ultimately, the episode is a real mess. By mess, I mean the story is pretty weak and implausible and even boring. In this episode, the Enterprise answers a …
Psych: Murder, anyone, anyone, bueller?
After it’s first season, the show Psych has gotten a bit stale. But, one of the more recent episodes “Murder…anyone…anyone…Bueller” isn’t too bad compared to many of the other newer episodes.
This one takes place at Sean and Gus’ high school reunion and Sean witnesses a classmate falling from the …
Super girl, Survivors, season 2, episode 4, TV Show
I have never thought I would write a review on a TV show Supergirl because it used to be a show I was watching just because I like superhero TV shows and movies but it never made me feel strong about it or about any issues that it was dealing …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Flashpoint
“Flashpoint” is the 23rd episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. This is easily one of the best episodes of the season, even without a big knockdown dragout fight between the heroes and any supervillian. The episode is so great because it starts the beginning of …

This is actually a second part of the previous episode of Invisibleman. Darien Fawkes is a man who has a gland in his brain that can make him turn invisible by covering his body with quick silver, but too much quick silver in his blood also cases him to …

Have Gun - Will Travel: Gun Shy is episode 29 of the first season of this Richard Boone series about a gunfighter named Paladin. In it, Kam Tong gets a bit more action as Hey Boy since the story revolves around a chess set made from jade that …
The Jetsons
The Jetsons is a great TV show that started in the 60s. But later there were more shows made in the 80s and the re runs were shown for decades. This is a great show, and I really love how they thought the 21th Century was going to be. The …
Monk TV Episode: Mr. Monk and the Naked Man
One of our channels had a mini Monk marathon on yesterday morning and, while our daughter was napping, I had an opportunity to watch some of it.
One of the episodes, Mr. Monk and the Naked Man, was pretty funny.
Basically, there is a murder on a clothing optional beach (which …
Futurama TV show
I really enjoy this show, when I get a chance to see it. It is about a pizza delivery boy named Fry, who inadvertently gets frozen and wakes up several centuries into the future.
He gets a job working for his great-great-…-nephew as a delivery boy around the universe, and …

Beast Wars - Gorilla Warfare is an episode that offers quite a lot of action and allows a viewer to see a side of Optimus that is not seen too often in the series. Of course, the only reason Optimus comes unhinged in this episode and becomes excessively aggressive …
Smallville Season 8 Episode 5
At first i thought this episode was a little bit off. A jeweler kidnaps Chloe and Jimmy, hooks them up to a lie detector test and asks them questions to determine if their love is true. If the lie they get an electric shock.
Weird huh?
I didn’t really …
That Girl: That Meter Maid
Directed by Ted Bessell, That Girl: That Meter Maid continues the fourth season of this groundbreaking and liberating television comedy series. I’ve long remembered this episode. It was fun and cute. I’m not sure I’ve ever noticed that Bessell was the director. That made me …
Strictly Dr. Drew (television show)
The Discovery Health Channel has introduced a show called Strictly Drew that is on Thursday evenings, and offered as an On-Demand option, for those of you who obtain that service from your cable company. Anyway, I have watched the show only twice and I am now addicted. …
Metrocast Cable
I use Metrocast cable TV and in my opinion the service is great and I have really enjoyed it. I use the basic package but there are a lot of good channels included with the basic package. I chose the basic package because it was very cheap …
“Workaholics” Season 3 on Comedy Central
The new season of Workaholics takes the amusing basis of three single twenty-somethings living and working together to a heightened level of hilarity. The characters are up to their same antics, but the situations are more and more outrageous.
The newest season of Comedy Central’s hit show starts out with …
Laramie: Lost Allegiance TV Show
This review is going to focus on an episode of the western series, Laramie, which I just love to pieces. The specific show is called Lost Allegiance and aired during the program’s final season on TV.
What I love about Laramie: Lost Allegiance could fill a book. There …
30 Rock: Jack-Tor
This episode of 30 Rock was far better than any of those which I have seen before. Perhaps my expectations have changed but this made me laugh several times and I hope it’s because the show has began to find where it needs to be.
In this episode Liz offered …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: And the Moon Be Still as Bright TV Show
From October 1990, The Ray Bradbury Theater: And the Moon Be Still as Bright guest stars David Carradine as an archaeologist named Spender who is part of an expedition to Mars. This is actually the third crew to reach the planet.
As part of the team searches the area, …
Sable: Watchdogs
There’s one really notable thing about the Sable: Watchdogs episode from 1987. It’s a great show in showing what the blind can do and what their capabilities. So often it’s been easy for TV to stereotype the blind, but in this series, the character of Cheesecake is …
American Idol TV show
Every year, I keep promising myself that I will not get sucked back into watching another season of “American Idol.” I just get way too caught up in the weekly results aspect of it. I keep telling myself that I will not ride that emotional rollercoaster again.
Then, of …
Two And A Half Men
Charlie Sheen and John Cryer are Charlie and Alan Harper. Two brothers more or less sharing a house on the beach. Actually Charlie owns the house and Alan is just there because he had a choice a roof or the street in order to pay his ex-wife alimony and …
Fresh Prince TV Show
This television show is a comedy from the early 90s featuring will smith. I really loved watching this show back in the day, and now I watch it on nick at night. The show was one of the first that featured a black family on television. I just to …
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, …
The TV show Lost
The TV show lost was a great show when it first came up and than somewhere down the line the producers made the show just go all stupid. Seriously, the show was addictive when the first few seasons came out and was so on the edge of your seat …
Ghost Whisperer
I used to hear about the show Ghost Whisperer on television, but at the time I never really got a chance to watch it. I also wasn’t really making an attempt to see it either since it seemed like one of those silly television series which would have so …
Dexter Season 6 Episode 3
While Episode 3 of season 6 of Dexter was done with the same care and intensity as any previous episode of this amazing show, this one I did not like as much. Unlike the previous episodes I can see just what the writers are planning and I really …
Ghost Hunters: Ghostly Conversation
I was watching Ghost Hunters last night and got to see a more recent episode I haven’t seen before; Ghostly Conversation.
This one was somewhat interesting because they got to visit a really fancy hotel that was supposedly haunted by the princess that once owned it and frequented it; likely …
Undercover Boss UK: Tower Hamlets TV Show
Kevan Collins, CEO for just four months at Tower Hamlets, steps up to the plate in this episode of Undercover Boss - UK. Now I’m a bit handicapped by my American perspective because I haven’t a clue what they were talking about in terms of how this Tower …
