CSI Season 1 Episode 20 Sounds of Silence
Just as expected of this great show, it was a really fun and interesting episode. Aside from the investigation, there was some social message as well, but I felt like it didn’t really work well. I think it was a just a little bit over the top as the …
The Fall Guy: Goin’ for It TV Show
The Fall Guy: Goin’ for It gives us a different type of opening for the adventure drama, and that’s probably a good thing. Changing up a format occasionally keeps viewers on the edge, not certain what to expect. Not only did they change what was usual, but …
AMC “Mad Men” season four premiere “Public Relations”

FOX TV Series: Lie to Me
One of the latest midseason replacement TV series to come out of FOX, I saw the listing for “Lie to Me” and watched out of simple curiosity. I have to admit that my feelings for this show are somewhat mixed.
The series premise is that the Lightman Group are …
ABS CBN Documentary on Malnutrition
Abs-Cbn has just broadcasted a documentary film about Philippine’s malnutrition. The title is “Dalawang Mukha ng Malnutrisyon” or “The two faces of Malnutrition”. I know that even fat kids are not well nourished, but I did not realize that making your kids eat whatever they want can actually be …

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Indestructible Man TV Show

The Twilight Zone: The Chaser TV Show
The Twilight Zone: The Chaser is an okay outing for this science fiction series. I don’t particularly love it, but I don’t dislike it, either. It’s one of the few roles I can somewhat tolerate John McIntire in. He plays a mysterious professor who sales …
The Young And The Restless
The Young and The Restless has been in the 11 am time slot on CBS in my location as long as I can remember. While it’s a good show to those that like it, I find it rather dull, and increasingly confusing. The story lines aren’t something that make …

House: The Itch
After watching House and Cuddy kiss last week, I expected this week’s episode “The Itch” to deal with their possible relationship.
Instead, we got a boring storyline about how they are still trying to decide what to do regarding the kiss; which ends with House outside her door in the …

Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 4
Much of Shroud for a Nightingale - Part 4 reminds me of an episode of Colombo. Actually, most of the production does. We have Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgliesh having numerous face offs with a chief surgeon of Nightingale Hospital, Stephen Courtney-Briggs (Joss Ackland). Their verbal battles …
Gilmore Girls tv show

The Andy Griffith Show: The Rivals TV Show
The Andy Griffith Show: The Rivals, from April 1963, isn’t really my favorite show, but it does have some cute moments. I’m just not really into these young love and puppy love stories that much, and essentially, that’s what this is.
One of the most adorable scenes is at …

A-Team TV Episode: The Rabbit Who Ate Las Vegas
Hmm—¦.I was enjoying the A-Team re-runs I had an opportunity to watch this past weekend. But, I have to admit, the one entitled The Rabbit Who Ate Las Vegas was a bit much for me.

M*A*S*H: Quo Vadis, Captain Chandler
M*A*S*H: Quo Vadis, Captain Chandler is a bit of an off-kilter episode for me. It’s never been one that I enjoyed all that much. Alan Fudge guest stars as Captain Chandler, an injured soldier who believes he’s Christ. Most of what happens stems from this plot …

I first got hooked on Pretty Little Liars when my cousin handed me the box set of Season 1. Since that day I have been unable to turn it off. The show is amazing! Every episode is packed with action.

Finally, just when you didn’t think it would actually be possible, the first season improves with “Destroy Malevolence”, the third and final part to the ‘Malevolence’ plot-related episodes (preceded by “Rising Malevolence” and “Shadow of Malevolence”). In this episode, General Grevious kidnaps Padme Amidala and C-3PO, leaving it up …
The Fall Guy: Three for the Road TV Show

Highway Patrol: Blast Area Copter TV Show

Highway Patrol: Frightened Witness TV Show
From 1958, the opening episode of Highway Patrol’s final season on the air, its fourth, was called Frightened Witness. The title is a little off as it should have been Frightened Witnesses. That is because there were two scared folks, a couple named Carl and Jennifer Stone. …
