The Inbetweeners - Series 3 -
The third series of The Inbetweeners. It got off to a great start in my opinion with the first couple of episodes, especially as it had a lot to live up to after the first two series. I think they also had a lot to live up to because …
Have Gun - Will Travel: Ella West
Have Gun - Will Travel: Ella West starts a little differently with Paladin (Richard Boone) arriving in Abilene, so we don’t get the normal San Francisco beginning. Variety is good, though, so it’s nice to get a shake up in the opening scene. That doesn’t necessarily mean …

Shatner’s Raw Nerve: Regis Philbin
Shatner’s Raw Nerve: Regis Philbin proved to be much more interesting than I thought it was going to be. I loved the opening remark when Shatner said something to the effect of, “We’ve known each other 40 years, but we really don’t know each other.”
Regis talked a bit …

Stargate Atlantis: Broken Ties

Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?

CSI Season 12 Episode 8 (TV Series)

Charmed
This was one of my favourite shows (well, at least until the last series which wasn’t so good!)

Criminal Minds —“ Season One —“ Episode Thirteen—“ Poison
Poisoning is probably the worst way to go. Because you don’t know what it is that killed you. All you know is that you are sick. So this episode really freaked me out. It showed what happens when the media gets a hold of something and doesn’t report it …

The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Dead Man TV Show

Mork & Mindy: In Mork We Trust
Well, this kind of sucks. I’ve been watching Mork & Mindy all day today and came across yet another episode that wasn’t very good; “In Mork We Trust.”

M*A*S*H: Taking the Fifth

Hannah Montana
Ok, I don’t normally make it a rule to watch the shows my daughter watches. But, I have found I genuinely enjoy the Disney series, Hanna Montana.

Here Come the Brides: Democracy in Action

Cracker: True Romance Part 2 TV show
Robbie Coltrane is the big cheese as Dr. Eddie ‘Fitz’ Fitzgerald in Cracker: True Romance Part 2. However, for me, his cheese is poisoned. I wasn’t impressed for one second with the acting or the character. He was a major turnoff.
