Spongebob Squarepants Season Three - One Krabs Trash
One day Mr. Krabs decides to have a yard sale and get rid of things to make some money, just because he is so cheap. He finds things in other people’s trash and resells them, and that is the way he is. Well, one day Spongebob and Patrick decide …
Sea Hunt: Sixty Feet Below TV Show
Sea Hunt: Sixty Feet Below debuted on January 4, 1958, and it was a good outing to start off with for this adventure series. I wasn’t even born when this show took to the air, so this is the first time I’m seeing the underwater themed program which …
The Event: I Haven’t Told You Everything TV Show
The Event: I Haven’t Told You Everything was a riveting hour of action. This is a show you can’t miss, and that includes looking away for even a moment.
We go from a disaster occurring to 23 minutes earlier and a plane taking off. Then it’s 11 days …
Ghost Hunters: Best of the Stanley Hotel
I was watching our season 3 disk of Ghost Hunters and came across the episode “Best of the Stanley Hotel.” Apparently, at some point in the series, the TAPS crew did a live episode at the Stanley Hotel in Colorado; this time bringing along pro wrestler CM Punk and …
Justice League Unlimited Season One: Question Authority
“Question Authority” is the 21st episode of season one of Justice League Unlimited. This was a good episode featuring the Question, one of the more interesting and underused members of the Justice League. The episode also features a lot of Superman and Huntress, and continues the trend …
Cowboy Bebop Episode 19 (Anime)
Cowboy Bebop Episode 19 has Spike getting his fighter repaired on Earth while Faye and Jet take on space pirates.
This episode was pretty interesting and fun, the situation was interesting because this is the first time Faye and Jet and even Edward were useless in a fight while bounty …
Third Watch series
I thoroughly enjoy this series as it remind of such winners as ER and Hill Street Blues. The cast of unknowns and minor experienced actors is just perfect. I enjoy these characters and weekly root for such friends as Sully, Faith, Carlos, Kim, Boscorelli, …
M*A*S*H: Alcoholics Unanimous
Frank Burns (Larry Linville) turns the 4077th upside down in M*A*S*H: Alcoholics Unanimous when he accuses just about everyone of being alcoholics, something that known of them want to admit. Ultimately, Father Mulcahy is set to give a lecture on the subject, but he gets a little nervous. …
Hair Battle Spectacular: Episode 2 TV Show
After watching this really ridiculous hair styling competition on the Oxygen Network the week before, I decided to try it one more time, just to see if maybe it would seem saner the second time around. Therefore, I’m reviewing Hair Battle Spectacular: Episode 2 . It began …
Starhunter: Rebirth
I don’t know why it appeals to me so much, but Starhunter is one of my favorite TV shows. Sure it is low-budget, nor does it have the greatest acting in the world, but there is a certain charm and appeal to the show nonetheless. Thus I …
The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast: Redd Foxx (#2) TV Show
This show was the second time that Redd Foxx was an honoree as a celebrity to be roasted on The Dean Martin Celebrity Roast. Taped at the MGM in Las Vegas, Foxx was the Man of the Hour. Now I’m not a fan of Redd Foxx at …
Reba
I recently started watching a show called Reba which has Reba Mccantire in it. It’s a really funny show and I think a lot of people could relate to it no matter what there age or gender. Everyone in the show is funny especially Van. I think mothers could …
Max Headroom: Lessons TV show
The topic of Max Headroom: Lessons has to do in part with censorship, including the use of profanity. Now that’s a still relevant issue that continues to be controversial in our true reality.
This half-hour program, which to me is both a comedy and a drama due its mix …
The Fall Guy: Three for the Road TV Show
The Fall Guy: Three for the Road did have its moments, and most of those included recurring guest star, Judith Chapman. She’s a terrific actress, no matter what role she takes on. Her Kay Faulkner actually annoys me off and on, but she’s well done and very …
Vampire High Season 1 Episode 25
In this episode, the night students have come to the midpoint of the experiment and it is pledge time.
The episode begins with Essie trying to find helpers to decorate for the pledge ceremony and Merrill let it be known that Drew will be the speaker and he is shocked …
South Park Season 10, Episode 8: Make Love, Not Warcraft
This episode is a classic. I’ve never played WoW myself (I tried, but it was a nuisance so I ditched it) but I still find this episode hilarious.
The boys join the online sensation, but find their experience ruined by an insanely powerful griefer who keeps killing them when …
Blue’s Clues Television Show
There are many television shows out there that are geared to toddlers. My most favourite right now for my two-year old is Blue’s Clues. Blue’s Clues is partly animated and is based on a young man and his puppy.
The puppy provides clues via an animated paw print to his …
Justice League Unlimited: the Doomsday Sanction
Typically “Justice League Unlimited” focused on the less famous members of the Justice league and that is good. It adds depth to the D.C. universe which isn’t in most cartoons because they need to focus on a few characters.
The second thing it does is serve as a contrast to …
Futurama TV Episode: A Big Piece of Garbage
Well, finally, I got another episode of Futurama that was actually pretty good. This one, entitled A Big Piece of Garbage, focuses more on the professor and his accomplishments; in particular, we are introduced to the smell-a-scope, a tool that allows you to smell things in space and ultimately …
All in the Family The Complete Fifth Season
The fifth season of All in the Family represents a slight shift in the way stories are told: some of the season consists of multi-part stories as opposed to single, standalone stories. Now the later seasons, particularly season eight, will be made up of even more two and three …
Home Improvement: Young at Heart
It’s good working half days for a week because I get to see some shows I might not get a chance to see when I’m working all day (too bad that starts next week). One of the shows, Home Improvement, is one I’ve missed a bit.
The episode that showed …
Two And A Half Men: A Jock Strap In Hell
“A Jock Strap In Hell” is the fifth episode of season six of the CBS sit-com Two And A Half Men. This episode was great for the first 15 minutes but went downhill during the rest of the episode. The ending was just weird.
The show opens with …
Ghost Hunters: Attack of the Irish Elementals
I finally got to see the episodes where the TAPS team gets to travel to Ireland and England to do some investigating. And, the episode “Attack of the Irish Elementals” is definitely an interesting one.
First of all though, how did that one guest investigator Barry (later a star of …
CSI Season 8, Episode 8
I was fairly surprised by this episode of CSI because it was a lot better than I thought it would be. The episode itself mainly takes place in the fantasy world and some of the favorite characters barely appear at all. Hodges in the lab gathers up all the …
Brooklyn Nine-Nine comedy show
‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ is now into its second season and as a comedy show it has excelled. In its FIRST season, it won two Golden Globe Awards! It’s one of the funniest shows to have come out in a long time. It has a ‘Parks and Recreation’ vibe in that it …
MLB TV
Last year I wrote a review of the MLB TV service that allows people to watch or listing to Major League Baseball broadcasts. I enjoyed it so much that I subscribed again this year and have enjoyed it very much, particularly since I decided to change my baseball team …
Star Trek: The Apple TV Show
Gene Roddenberry tackles Eden yet again in Star Trek: The Apple. The series creator seems to love to show that books shouldn’t be judged by their covers and that living easy isn’t necessarily living. Man never quite finds paradise in Star Trek.
Another red shirt goes down before …
Sherlock (BBC TV series)
My friend has been asking me to watch the series Sherlock. This is not the movie, but the BBC series. Initially I didn’t want to see it knowing it only had 3 episodes per season, but recently I had nothing to watch so I decided to see it. Apparently …
Dharma & Greg
Remember the TV sitcom years before, Dharma & Greg? I love this TV sitcom very much and have been missing it since. I wonder why there’s no more of this sitcom.
From the moment Dharma and Greg get to know each other right up to their marriage …
Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Shadow Women of Chung Tai
It’s yet another romance for Frank Buck in Bring ‘Em Back Alive: The Shadow Women of Chung Tai. I doubt the real Frank Buck had a girl popping out of the woodwork every other week. Bruce Boxleitner fans may like it, but I’ve never liked
the notion of …
MacGyver: The Gauntlet
MacGyver: The Gauntlet is another episode with lots of action in it. MacGyver is once again sent overseas, to South America, to rescue a photographer, played by Robin Curtis. She’s got the goods on a couple of bad guys, and they know it. Hence, the big …
Trinity Blood episode 13
Behold the glory of continuous story arcs on Trinity Blood! Episode thirteen: “The Ibelis II. Betrayal Blaze” was an plot thickener with no end of surprises. As our valiant stalwart crew escapes, Radu turns evil from zero in seconds. Oh the horror! In actuality though, this betrayal was not …
The Winds of War: Making The Winds of War featurette
Dan Curtis is center stage for The Winds of War: Making The Winds of War featurette which takes interested viewers through the process of what it was like to make the outstanding television mini-series, The Winds of War and its follow up, War and Remembrance.
One of the intriguing things …
Pokemon (TV Show) - Bye, Bye Butterfree (Episode)
“Bye, Bye Butterfree” is an episode of the “Pokemon” television series. Although this is a farewell episode for one of Ash’s Pokemon, Butterfree, I don’t feel it was very effective. This is only the twenty-first episode of the series and Butterfree never was really used by Ash in particularly …
NCIS: Bloodbath Season 3, Episode 21
“Bloodbath” is an Abby-centric episode. When NCIS goes to a crime scene at a motel where there is tissue and blood all over the room, they wonder where the body may be. While Abby and McGee are going over some evidence, Abby smells almonds - cyanide. …
Simpsons TV Episode: You Kent Always Get What You Want
Synopsis: Homer appears on Kent Brockman’s show Smartline and, because he causes the newscaster to swear, ultimately costs him his job.
What I like about this episode: I think the best part for me at least was the way the episode spoofs the fact people get way too easily offended …
Ghost Hunters: Eastern State Penitentary
We were watching another season 1 episode of Ghost Hunters last night “Eastern State Penitentary” and I have to say I was left less than impressed.
You would think a place like a prison would provide quite a few scary moments and even had some investigators running for their lives …
LG 32″ 720P Television
I absolutely love my LG 720P LCD television set. Given to me as a surprise from a very special friend, I have faithfully been watching television magic on the 32 inch screen. The image quality of the screen is absolutely fantastic and very clear, conveying colors vividly and crisply …
Gilligan’s Island TV Episode: Forward March
As I have mentioned before, I’m a big fan of watching Gilligan’s Island re-runs on weekends. But, even though I do enjoy most of the episodes (I’ve seen every one several times), there are some that just aren’t as good as others. One of these is the episode “Forward …
Curb Your Enthusiasm: Seventh Season
The so-so sixth season of Curb Your Enthusiasm ended on a rather strange note. For a start, Larry’s long suffering but forever faithful spouse Cheryl had finally called quits on her husband and all his hang-ups. Stranger still, Larry quickly found love again with Loretta Black and her misplaced …
Big Bang Theory: The Financial Permeability
In this episode of Big Bang theory you get to see one of Sheldon’s personality quirks which doesn’t make you want to punch him. He is generous, at least with a loan. The fact that he acted completely contrary to how you would expect is one of the things …
The Twilight Zone: Walking Distance TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Walking Distance is another episode from the first season of this great science fiction television series. It focuses on a middle-30’s businessman named Martin Sloan (Gig Young) who is a bit unhappy with his life. He decides to take a quick trip to his …
Family Guy: The Fat Guy Strangler
You know, I could have sworn the show Family Guy has been on the air for a few years now. So, why is it, whenever I watch a re-run at 6:30 or 10:30 it is usually one of only about a dozen episodes?
Last night was one I have seen …
Diff’rent Strokes: Movin’ In
The pilot for Diff’rent Strokes is called Movin’ In and focuses on a rich businessman who takes in two boys. The boys were the sons of his housekeeper, who had recently died. Before passing, she asks him to take care of her sons, and he promises her …
Sea Hunt: Gold Below TV Show
Sea Hunt: Gold Below begins with some underwater shots of Mike Nelson (Lloyd Bridges) working with his new assistant, Billy Riker. The reason why Billy is so fun to watch is that he’s played by Jack Hogan. Hogan has a long history of excellent portrayals, including a …
Stargate SG-1: Heroes Part 2
I’m not as fond of Stargate SG-1: Heroes Part 2 as I am of part 1 for several reasons.
First, I don’t like what happens in part 2. There’s a major character death, and it’s one that was ordered by the Sci-Fi Network. They wanted the audience to …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Secret of the Deep TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: Secret of the Deep, episode 19 from season 4, aired in February 1968 and guest starred Peter Mark Richman as John Hendrix. He’s supposed to be an intelligence officer this time around (he’s been on the show before in another role). …
Glee show
Glee is a relatively new show on FOX which previewed in May 2009 and began during the following Fall season. It is currently just past its tenth episode and is about to take its first hiatus.
Glee focuses around a star cast playing a group of kids with only one …
South Park - Crippled Summer
Just this title told me that it had something to do with either Timmy or Jimmy. While I like both characters, having just episodes about them have been hit and miss episodes in general. They haven’t really come up to par with …
Cover Her Face - Part 3
Cover Her Face, Part 3, moves this P.D. James murder mystery along significantly. One of the things I like about this particular outing, though, is that the storyline is much easier to follow than those in later outings. I felt that way about The Black Tower, too. …
