The Wayans Bros TV show
The Wayans Bros is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time! I just love this show! Marlon and Shawn are The Wayans Bros. Marlon is so funny because he makes the funniest faces and he also has a funny voice. The jokes on The Wayans …
Ghost Adventures (Travel Channel)
I am a horror buff. And around Halloween, I will watch just about anything that has to do with ghosts, goblins, and the supernatural. Having watched Ghost Hunters for a few seasons, I have been spoiled. I love Jay and Grant’s approach to seeking out paranormal …
Psych: Forget Me Not
During my Psych mini-marathon before bed last night, I came across an episode I hadn’t seen before; Forget Me Not. This one turned out to be an interesting case for Shawn and Gus.
The two are hired by his dad’s former captain, who believes he has solved a murder. However, …
Touching Evil: Love Lies Bleeding
All good things come to an end, and apparently that’s what happened in Touching Evil: Love Lies Bleeding. I’ve said from the beginning that the part of the storyline I really loved was David Creegan’s relationship with his ex-wife, Holly, and their two daughters, Samantha and Lily. …
The Closer TV Show
At first I did not understand the appeal of The Closer show. I couldn’t figure out what it was- on one hand it was a detective show, similar to law and order, on the other it was full of comedic moments and exaggerated characters. I simply did not know …
Stargate: Infinity: Museum TV Show

The Andy Griffith Show: Sheriff Barney TV Show
From its second season of many years on the air, The Andy Griffith Show: Sheriff Barney is a good outing. It’s not one of my huge favorites, but it’s a solid show that has plenty of laughs to it, and that’s what successful comedy is all about. …
Two and a half men the show
Two and a half men is a show about two men and one of them has a kid and this show has provided me with many years of entertainment and the characters on the show are all so funny. The first character that is the best would have to …

Talk about ending the second season on a high note, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea concluded its year with this 26th episode, The Return of the Phantom. This brought back Alfred Ryder as the marvelous Krueger, who first was seen about midway through the year in …

Scrubs
Well what can I say about the TV show Scrubs. I have to say that this is one of the worst TV shows I have seen in my life. I don’t know if it is because I hate hospitals or because of the bad acting but I hate it. The …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Brotherhood TV Show
From January 1963. Have Gun - Will Travel: Brotherhood features a cute opening where Paladin makes cut out people out of newspaper as five Chinese youths watch; it’s just adorable. It truly made me smile. This Paladin is good with kids theme shows up again later when …
Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard
Beast Wars - Changing of the Guard is an excellent episode - in part, because it is an episode of the series that does something quite different and it does so very well. This is one of two episodes in the series that takes place, partly, underwater. Rattrap is …
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Fee Fie Foe Fum TV Show
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Fee Fie Foe Fum aired in October 1992 and featured All in the Family’s lovable Jean Stapleton as Grandma. Co-starring in the half hour episode was Lucy Lawless as Liddy Barton and Robert Morelli as Tom. There’s also a pretty white dog. …

Stargate SG-1: Watergate
A show I can really sit back and enjoy! Finally! Stargate SG-1: Watergate is a nice episode with a good guest star, Marina Sirtis of Star Trek: the Next Generation. Marina plays a Russian scientist who knows all about SG-1, much to their curiosity.
SG-1 discovers that …
Laramie: The Mountain Men TV Show
Dan Duryea is back in Laramie: The Mountain Men, and this isn’t one of the roles I prefer to see him in. He did several episodes of this series, though, including the very first episode, Stage Stop. Here he is Ben Sanford, the father of the mountain …
American Idiol
I started watching American Idol in their first season because I loved to hear people sing. I thought a show that would give the opportunity to an amazing singer, who might not have a chance of otherwise being discovered, was an excellent idea. I loved watching it every …
Columbo: The Complete Second Season DVD set
Columbo fans everywhere were delighted when Universal released the Columbo: The Complete Second Season DVD set. This set is put together differently from the first season one, which is a bit nicer in my estimation.
There are just four DVDs required for the set, since there were fewer episodes …
Neon Genesis Evangelion episode 8
Now we see the introduction of two of Evangelion’s most controversial character additions. These characters at first seem to be nothing more than gag characters to be used in an easy disposable manner, which will become an much deeper base than that. Misato brings Shinji and his classmates to …
The Virginian: It Tolls for Thee
The Virginian: It Tolls for Thee is from the first season of this western series which had the unique honor of being 90-minutes in length when airing. Overall, it’s not a series I’m that crazy about, but some episodes aren’t too bad.
In It Tolls for Thee, guest star …
True Blood on HBO
I just started watching the hit show True Blood from HBO and so far it has been a fun ride. If blood and really explicit sexual scenes don’t make you squeemish or you enjoy that than this show is for you.
The characters are easy to digest and the story …
Here Come the Brides: A Jew Named Sullivan
Here Come the Brides: A Jew Named Sullivan from season one of this ABC series of the late 60’s allows us to really grow to love the Biddie Cloom character. Biddie is a bit of silly girl. She always wants to be in love. Outwardly, she’s …
TV : Dead Like Me
When George Lass (Ellen Muth) is hit and killed by a toilet seat plummeting towards earth, she is instantly taken as a reaper, one of those post-death individuals relied on to take the souls of people before they die. The quirky series lasted only two season but in that …
TV Show Bones
Bones is an excellent new show on Fox. It is about a forensic anthropologist who aides the FBI in solving crimes. She is able to study bones (hence her nickname) and help work backwards to figure out what happened, who the person was, and who or what killed them. …
Pokemon (TV Show) - Clefairy and the Moonstone (Episode)
“Clefairy and the Moonstone” is an episode of the Pokemon television series. What is perhaps most interesting about this episode is the story. I like how this episode exhibits a certain degree of mystery by exploring whether or not the Clefairy and Clefable came from outer space and I …
Lifetime Channel
I will admit it! I love a good Lifetime movie. My roommates used to make fun of me when they would come home and find me on the couch watching Lifetime. You really can’t go wrong with a lazy day watching a corny, way too long, with dried up …
Friends Episode: The One with Ross Taking Care of Rachel
Friends Episode: The One with Ross Taking Care of Rachel is a very nice, romantic and touching episode. In this scenario, Ross’s status is as Rachel’s ex-boyfriend and Rachel has a pained or suspected broken rib and Ross is so particular and definitely being very caring towards Rachel. …
Star Trek (animated) TV Show
In 1973, after the live action had been off the air for several years, an animated version of Star Trek hit the Saturday morning lineup.
The plus of this series was that all of the performers from the live action show returned. Having the original actors voice their characters …
Ghost Hunters Academy: Drama Queen
Yeah, I just don’t feel Ghost Hunters Academy. The show is interesting at times but the whole contest thing just doesn’t seem to have any sort of guidelines for the show to work with.
Last week, they got rid of Heathyr. This week, they didn’t even make an effort to …
NCIS: Jurisdiction Season 7, Episode 18
“Jurisdiction” is one of the better episodes of Season 7. Diane Neal of “Law And Order SVU” played Abigail Borin, a CGIS agent who was very much like Gibbs. Yes, she does the infamous ‘Gibbs slap’. Yes, she does not believe in coincidences. Yes, she …
That Girl: A Muggy Day in Central Park
That Girl: A Muggy Day in Central Park from season three is pretty funny, and it features Ted Bessell in a dress. Now that was a get up! There is a logical explanation, especially when you remember that this show aired on network television in 1968.
In this …
That Girl: All’s Well That Ends
That Girl: All’s Well That Ends is the final show of the fourth season, and it’s all about Ann Marie’s (Marlo Thomas) birthday. It’s fun to watch this show because it’s the end of ‘we have an understanding’ shows for Ann Marie and Don Hollinger (Ted Bessell). …
JUMONG
Kudos to “Jumong”, a Korean telenovea running in Philippine local TV daily from Monday to Friday at prime time. I was not curious to anticipate the program when it was first launched its premier telecast a year ago since it will will be run at the late hour …
Mighty Boosh - Season 3 - Episode 1: Eels
The Mighty boosh isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. If you like your comedy a little bit different though, this is for you.
It’s surreal, strange, bizarre and almost frightening in places, but you also get a bit of good old dumb humor thrown in for good measure.
Here, we see …
Batman: The Brave and the Bold: Long arm of the law
I’m not really very familiar with Plastic Man. I always think that the episodes with him involved are going to be sub-par but they usually turn out to be rather enjoyable.
With villains who have names like Kite-Man and Rubberneck, my expectations were pretty low, but they …
The X-Files: 4-D
A vicious serial killer flitting between alternate realities to live out his sinister fantasies without retribution is the premise of this episode.
This is a solid enough episode, and one of the first to really seal the new pairing of Doggett and Reyes as something to take notice of. Both …
A Man Called Hawk: Beautiful Are the Stars
The highlight of A Man Called Hawk: Beautiful Are the Stars is Karen Malina White, who guest stars as a young woman named Lisa. White barely looks 18, let alone the 21 she is playing here. However, she has a lot of spirit by her presence, and …
Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Sacred Trust
Kung Fu: The Legend Continues: Sacred Trust is episode 4 of the first season. I loved this continuation series, a show that moved the 70’s hit Kung Fu forward a few generations. David Carradine and Chris Potter starred. Since this was so early on, they were …
Nova: the Pluto Files: television show
Nova is a show that airs on PBS, the public access channel. It is a science show that covers social or scientific issues and design weekly. The Pluto Files episode is about the controversy surrounding the issue of whether or not Pluto is a planet. A …

Macross Plus Episode 3 (Anime)
Macross Plus Episode 3 has Isamu and Guld still in a bitter fight over Myung as something begins to go wrong for her before the Sharron Apple concert.
This was an interesting episode and it was interesting to watch. It’s a good anime but it’s not the best, the …
M*A*S*H: House Arrest
The wonderful character actress Mary Wickes guest stars in M*A*S*H: House Arrest from season three. Wickes is just amazing. She has a long history of comedic performances that are delightful, from The Trouble with Angels to Sister Act. I always know when I see her name …
Home Improvement: To Build or Not to Build
I was watching the tail end of a Home Improvement episode today at lunch “To build or Not to build” and will say I was very impressed with it.
I wasn’t sure what the episode was about at first, but it turns out it was a Mother’s Day episode revolving …
Casper’s Haunted Christmas
My daughter was watching some Christmas specials on TV last night and came across one that wasn’t too bad; though not overly impressive, Casper’s Haunted Christmas.
This animated film featured Casper the friendly ghost (with a much deeper voice than I remember him having) and his friends at a local …
Project Runway, season 3
Now that there’s only one episode left in the third season of Project Runway, I can honestly say I can’t wait until it is finally over.
This season has to be one of the more annoying seasons I’ve ever seen. It seems to me that fashion has taken second place …
Anime - High School Of The Dead Season 1
High School of the Dead is about a group of teenagers trying to survive a sudden zombie apocolypse. The show is directed by Tetsuro (Death Note, Black Lagoon) and is based on the hit manga series by Daisuke Sato. The show has yet to be dubbed and brought over …
