Empire is a drama TV series created by Lee Daniels and Danny Strong. It’s about the music industry and features characters with that from the bottom to the top life story. If you saw and liked Eminem’s 8 Mile or 50 Cent’s Get Rich or Die Tryin’, you’ll love this …

Justice League Unlimited: “The Balance”
This episode of “Justice League Unlimited” begins with flash trying to get Wonder Woman and Hawkgirl together. I believe that Wonder Woman is still upset over the Thangarian invasion though they don’t say in the episode.
I both like, and dislike that about Justice League Unlimited. I appreciate that they …
The Veil: Food on the Table TV Show
The Veil was a short lived anthology series from 1958. I haven’t seen any of them before now, and I find it to be an intriguing broadcast. Boris Karloff hosts the show, and it begins with him doing his introduction in front of a huge fireplace, like …
Dog the bounty hunter season three - cupid in cuffs
This episode of Dog the bounty hunter has to be my absolute favorite. Why might you ask? Well it shows a lot of Leland Chapman, which happens to be my favorite bounty hunter because he is just so drop down gorgeous, and he seems so funny. The fugitive that …
The Dog Whisperer
The Dog Whisperer is in its fourth season on National Geographic TV and if you have any interest in pets, it is a must see. To think that someone can communicate with animals and correct their behavior is just amazing. I feel sorry for many of the animals …
Sea Hunt: Beyond Limits TV Show
Sea Hunt: Beyond Limits aired toward the end of the third season, back in September 1960. I am amazed that I tend to enjoy this show as much as I do in reruns because up until it started airing on ThisTV, the whole concept bored me. While …
The Walking Dead TV show - S03 E08 The Mid-Season Finale
The mid-season finale of “The Walking Dead” had a lot going on. The episode leaves you exactly where I hate it, on a cliff-hanger in every aspect imaginable wondering what happens next. What happens to Daryl? (Who really cares about Merle right?) Are the people safe …
Channel News Asia
Channel News Asia is a good TV station program. Actually this local channel in my country is called Channel News Asia, and this is one of my hot favorite TV channels of all time. I think across the continents, perhaps people might be able to access this, though …
The Philanthropist
I had really high hopes for The Philanthropist when I first saw the commercials. It looked like an exciting action/adventure show with a real human element, and important moral message. The pilot lived up to those expectations. Telling the story of a billionaire who suddenly snaps …
Top Chef: Just Desserts: Black And White Fashion TV Show
For the Quick Fire Challenge of Top Chef: Just Desserts: Black And White Fashion, the competitors had to use just one pan and without the normal electric appliances, so that was quite a challenge. It was to be a savory dessert made of foods like bacon and beets.
This …
Golden Girls Season 2
The second season of The Golden Girls was a really good one. The show combines four older women of an older age who live together in Miami, Florida. One of the better episodes involved Blanche’s much older father coming to town and marrying a woman less than half his …
Heroes TV series
This is the newest TV series that has rocked the whole nation. It’s actually about several people who have super power abilities and how their destinies are tied together. When NBC started advertising their new series, my husband and I were so excited. We love the unexplained, and this …
Secret Life of The American Teenager
The Secret life of the American Teenager focuses on a fifteen year old Amy who has a one night stand with a drummer at band camp and winds up pregnant.
Good concept, it’s new to bring a teen pregnancy into the spotlight and approach it with a little humour as …
Fairly Oddparents: Christmas Every Day
I was watching Christmas-related cartoons with my daughter yesterday and have to admit the Fairly Oddparents episode “Christmas Every Day” was pretty cool.
This show, which features a kid and his fairy godparents, usually has some cool wishes go bad. But, who knew having Christmas Day every day would be one …
Top Shot: Season Finale TV Show
Tonight was the grand finale of the first season of Top Shot. Unfortunately, my favorite, Kelly, was already gone so I wasn’t as invested in the event as I had been in the prior episodes. There were four remaining when the show began.
They had the first elimination …

Man in a Hurry is all about …
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire
This show is amazing! I continued to watch it even when Meredith took over the show from Regis. The way the lights are dim really low with each progression the player makes, plus it’s fun to live vicariously through the people who play on that show. I …
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Enemies
I have to say, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode “Enemies” really had me fooled when I watched it; and that’s not something that happens very often.
I knew from a couple episodes back that Faith had entered the services of the mayor and was no longer fighting evil; she …

Sense8 (TV series by Wachowskis)
Sense8 is an American Sci-Fi drama TV series with the ambition to do for TV what Matrix did for action films. Sense8 was written and produced by the Wachowskis, so if anyone could get away with such a claim it would be the creators of The Matrix themselves. I don’t …
Two and a Half Men
Two and a Half Men is a family situation comedy that has been making viewers laugh since 2003. With its slightly off beat, but yet mostly normal, cast of characters who get great scripts, you almost wish they were your family. That is if you do not want …
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Brand of the Beast TV Show
Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea: The Brand of the Beast, the 14th outing of the 3rd season, brings back the concept of the werewolf. They did this in a previous show in which guest star Charles Aidman reverted into a werewolf. Now Admiral Nelson (Richard …
Adam 12 - Log 112
“Adam-12″, Log 112, is a satisfying episode with some humor and some drama, making it a well rounded show.
The humor aspect comes in with the set up early on, when Officer Pete Malloy gets hit inside a bar during a disturbance call. The key is that he never …

Project Runway: Rumble on the Runway
Look, I’ve mentioned before the show Project Runway has slowly grown on me over the years and, for the most part, I’m becoming a fan. But, I never understood the team competitions. This is supposed to be the best designer beating out all others. The only reason to pair …

The Twilight Zone: Mr. Bevis TV Show
The Twilight Zone: Mr. Bevis is one of those shows that teaches us all to be happy with who we are and what we have. Actually, this premise is used again in a later episode that starred Carol Burnett. I actually like the Burnett one better, but …
The Fairy Jobmother TV show
I was flipping through channels and came across the show “The Fairy Jobmother”. I had never heard about the show previously and I thought it was a creative title, so I gave it a try. The show was a professional who helped people who had been hurt …

Actor Mike Farrell, who plays B.J. Hunnicutt, finally gets to direct an episode of this great comedy series. M*A*S*H: Ain’t Love Grand has a few different elements going on, including Major Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) getting involved with a lady of the evening over at …
How I Met Your Mother Season One
The first season of How I Met Your Mother was so great that I’m not surprised it got picked up for a second season and then subsequent seasons later. The show follows a man named Ted and his friends as they live and work in Manhattan. The point of …
Melrose Place
When I heard Melrose Place was going to be remade I thought it wouldn’t be very good. The thing about Melrose Place and 90210 was they were perfect in the nineties because they reflected the values of culture being pushed to the limits. Today when television has such …
TV Show: Ham on the Street
Ham on the Street is a new show on Food Network that stars chef George Duran. It is absolutely hilarious! I love this show. New episodes come on Wednesday night at 10:30 pm/9:30 central. Ham on the Street has it all! It always starts off with George patrolling the …

TV show Peep and the Big Wide World
Peep and the Big Wide World is a wonderful kids’ show on public television. The three main characers are crudely drawn birds in primary colors. There is the somewhat smart but crabby red cardinal/robin Chirp, the hilarious and egotistical blue duck Quack, and the innocent sweet little …
Psych
As much as I like the show Psych, I was commenting to my wife the other day that the characters don’t seem to spend as much time trying to pretend he’s psychic than they did in the past. So, this episode, There’s Some thing about Mira, was really refreshing.
First, …
Jerry Orbach
Jerry Orbach who stars on Law & Order is why the show is such a hit. The charactor he plays Lenny Brisco is so good that you cannot help to watch the whole show. His dry wit is impeccable the way he delivers his scripts are so …
Adam-12: Substation
I really love these ‘away’ episodes of Adam-12 when they fill in or substitute in areas that aren’t their normal patrol. In the case of this show, Substation, Officers Pete Malloy and Jim Reed are assigned to the International Airport. It’s supposed Los Angeles International Airport. …

Ghost Hunters: St. Augustine Lighthouse
One of the first Ghost Hunters episodes I ever saw was St. Augustine Lighthouse. It is also one of the better episodes I have seen from the series.
The TAPS team drives to Florida to check out a massive lighthouse that is reportedly haunted. This episode is great for a …
American Dad: Rapture’s Delight
I haven’t watched the Show American Dad in some time now and don’t remember a whole lot about each of the characters. But, there wasn’t much on TV last night so I figured I would take the time to watch Rapture’s Delight.
It was an OK episode, but I feel …
CSI Season 10 Episode 1
I stopped watching CSI for a long time, although I had always been an avid fan. It was just that I had not much chance to watch TV with all the writing I was doing. So I guess I felt lucky to have been able to catch this …
