One of the hottest food crazes these days are cupcakes. Shops and bakeries have opened up all across the country. It’s probably international, but I’m not sure. I do know that in America, cupcakes are no longer kiddie deserts. Part of the proof of that …

I both liked and did not like the episode. To be more specific, I liked one of the cases, because it was unusual and interesting. But the other one was so sad and hear breaking, that I could not enjoy it. It was very strong, well written …

The 2010 America’s Got Talent finale was fairly entertaining. The final four were pretty good. There was the colorful Prince Poppycock, the everyday singer Michael Grimm, the variety act Fighting Gravity, and the young operatic star Jackie Evancho. In my mind, it was down to Grimm and …

“I am alone. Somebody come get me.” This is the phrase that defines this show, and it’s a powerful one.
In my opinion, Jeremiah: City of Roses has been the best show of the series thus far, and in it, Malcolm-Jamal Warner really shines. When we first …

It is The Simpsons 138 episode and they have named it Spectacular Episode. Basically this episode accounts for all the previous episodes of The Simpsons when they featured on the Tracy Ullman show. I must say, the animation has improved a lot. Compared to what it was, which was …

I would rate Veronica Mars one of my favorite television series of all times. Sadly this show only made it four seasons. I watched it at the time it aired on tv but then did not watch it again for a few years. It has now …

My all-day Psych marathon today resulted in me seeing an episode I haven’t seen before (and I thought I saw every episode of this show so far); Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Piece.
This was a great episode too. Shawn and Gus end up being invited to a fancy …

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 …

Hilary Swank is such a darling. I was really psyched to watch her imitating Ellen and she did a real good job out of it. Not only is she having short hair, she is also very tall and beautiful, and at the same time embodies such a good …

Here’s a show to combat video games. Stargate: Infinity: Reality focuses on a world where the inhabitants are found in an auditorium, all playing some virtual reality game and turning into vegetables in the process. I liken this plot device to Stargate SG-1’s The Gamekeeper, where SG-1 …

Dead Like Me is a very different series. It aired for two seasons on Showtime, so it’s definitely adult in nature. This is why it won’t be as well liked by me as it might be otherwise. In the pilot, which is the subject of this …

Frank Parker works for a secret government organization that uses alien technology to send him 7 days back in time when bad things happen so that he ca fix them.
In this episode the project got a new member, Hooter, because Ballard took leave. Frank goes to visit his friend …

When we have dinner, we like to watch some of the old sitcoms. One of our favorits is the Friends series.
We have always likes the interaction of the characters, Joey the soap star who is dim witted but kind hearted. Ross the scientist, from a well …

In this episode Jim is doing something new at work, trying. He goes golfing with a client while Michal, Pam, Oscar and Darryl are at a job fair. Before he would have spoken to the person then given up, but since Ryan has given him an official warning and …

From the Earth to the Moon - Part 6: Mare Tranquilitatis focuses on Apollo 11, the famous moon landing mission with Astronauts Neil Armstrong (Tony Goldwyn), Buzz Aldrin (Bryan Cranston), and Michael Collins (Cary Elwes). It’s also my least favorite episode for some reason. Maybe it’s because …

With the times changing, Rondo must comply with the change. Vincent Law, an immigrant from the Miosc Dome, has begat such change in the minds of all of the fellow citizens in Rondo dome. Making the most revolutionary escape from rondo, he now lives among the banished fellow citizens …

Stalemate is another good episode of the 1970 drama, The Young Rebels, which starred a magnificent young cast which included Rick Ely, Louis Gossett Jr., and Phillippe Forquet. Hilary Thompson is also on board, playing Ely’s girlfriend on the show.
I enjoy this show because it’s a theme that, …

I started watching season 4 of the show Ghost Hunters last night and one of the episodes, Two to Tango, was someone interesting even though they didn’t really find much.
The first case had them going to the Burlington County Prison in New Jersey with Tango’s dad William after he …

The Eli Bancroft Story of Wagon Train is definitely a favorite. Not only is a good show, it’s a show I remembered throughout the decades. There are a few episodes of Wagon Train that I never forgot, even though I was just a little girl when they …

I have never seen the season three episode of Psych called Talk Derby to Me until today, when I ended up watching it on Netflix Instant Watch because the kids were both in bed and my wife was glued to the computer (she is obsessed with a game she …

A Man Called Hawk: A Time and a Place is the second episode of this short-lived TV series that focuses on the character of Hawk, hip talking dude we first met on Spenser for Hire. As I’ve said before, he should have stayed in Boston. This show …

Caillou is a cartoon about a four-year-old boy and his adventures. Both my seven-year-old (when he was younger) and now my almost two-year-old like this show, although I have never been a fan, and I try to change the channel if I know it’s coming on next.
The show does …

“The Cursed Bus: Enter Mars, the Guardian of Fire” is the tenth episode of the Sailor Moon series, and what is kind of surprising about it is how it introduces a new Sailor Guardian, when just two episodes ago, the second Sailor Guardian came into the story. It took …

Consider The Ray Bradbury Theater: On the Orient, North, Bradbury’s version of Murder on the Orient Express, which is even referenced at the very beginning of the episode. It features Magali Noel as Minerva Halliday who offers to help someone described only as ‘the ghastly passenger’. Frankly, …

Bring ‘Em Back Alive continues its opening with Seven Keys to Singapore: Part 2. We’ve met all the main characters now — Bruce Boxleitner as Frank Buck, animal hunter and now part time secret agent of sorts, Cindy Morgan as Gloria Marlowe, the Miss Kitty to Boxleitner’s Sheriff …

I got a chance to watch the new Monk episode Friday night “Mr. Monk and the Voodoo Curse.” It was somewhat interesting and pretty entertaining.
The case itself was a little too easy to solve. You have a bunch of people dying by mysterious means and each of them has …

It was a very spontaneous decision to watch the first episode of Masterchef that was on the Fox network last night. I dislike Gordon Ramsey greatly. He’s a loudmouth, obnoxious man, at least that’s how he presents himself to be on television. I just can’t stomach …

So I was bored on day and decided to see what was new ondemand. I had stumbled upon a new series on HBO called True Blood about a back woods Lousianna town where vampires run rampant. I got sucked in by Anna Paquin’s character Sookie who has …

In my opinion, The Blue Book is one of the most interesting series of at least the last 5 years. What are its principal merits?

Dramatic and scenic authenticity, no comic relief - you won’t find here any cardboard heroes, saving the world by clutching their fingers in the wings …

Seven Brides for Seven Brothers: I Love You Molly McGraw starts out with some animal angst, which I never enjoy watching. It’s Evan’s horse, Diablo, who develops a leg injury and might have to be put down. Then it’s new vet, Molly McGraw (Ann Dusenberry) who operates and …

This second season offering from the hit series Lost offers us a rare grouping of characters as Kate, Rosseau and Claire head off into the jungle to help the young mother fit the pieces together from her disappearance in the first season.
As the episode begins, Claire begins suffering …

After the relatively uninspired premiere episode of The Closer’s sixth season, I wasn’t exactly expecting fireworks from its second episode. However, as soon as I saw Mary McDonnell’s surname on guest star list, I was hopeful for one of the better episodes, and I was definitely onto something, since …

Gossip Girl is a television show that airs on the CW. It’s a show that is much talked about and yet lacking in ratings which made me question whether the show was good or had a cult following. In my opinion I think it is a good …

M*A*S*H: The More I See You is essentially a love story, a real one, for the show’s main hero, Hawkeye Pierce as played beautifully by Alan Alda. We learn that Hawkeye lived with a nurse during his residency. He really loved her and still does, but she …

In M*A*S*H: Goodbye, Cruel World, one of Hawkeye Pierce’s (Alan Alda) patients named Sergeant Michael Yee, is headed for home. He’s a hero, but he’s a despairing hero who attempts to kill himself. Clyde Kusatsu does a great job in this complex role. The concept …

One of the television series that I had begun watching very recently was “Breaking Bad”. While I had heard about it a few times, I had never really considered checking it out until one of my family members who has the same taste in television series like me managed …

Stargate SG-1: Evolution Part 2 didn’t give Jack and Daniel fans what they wanted at the beginning. In reality, it gave us a nauseating soap opera scene that was completely out of character for Jack O’Neill. In the history of the show, when someone has needed help, …

In a post 9/11 world, things were a bit crazy with the color alert system and concern about unknown packages of any kind. This episode of the new sitcom, Whoopi, which was called Don’t Hide Your Bag, took advantage of American’s fear of terrorism. It puts what …

I don’t know why but, even though I wasn’t the one driving to Philadelphia, I felt like I wasted a great deal of time watching the Ghost Hunters episode Fortuna & Topton.
I can see why Brian is no longer their case manager. He gets them some sucky cases. And, …

One of the things that worked against Legend is that it was on the new UPN network. They didn’t have the stamina to let the series grow and really find its strength. Still, what we do have are a collection of tales in which actors Richard Dean …

Diagnosis Murder: 35 Millimeter Murder starts off interestingly enough with Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke) receiving the wrong set of photos that he’d just had developed. This is a great way to start a story. It’s very easy to identify with as I’ll bet it’s happened to …

This episode is almost a cast reunion. JD and Elliot are featured and there are cameos by both Jordan and the Todd.
Aside from Elliot’s general unlikable personality, the episode is solid. Both the veterans and the newbies bring in a fair share of humor. It was …

Okay, we’re starting to hit bottom with The Twilight Zone: A Short Drink from a Certain Fountain, a show that really pushes the button, not just on belief, but on storytelling. I don’t like it. I won’t go as far as to say it bores me, but …

From November 1957, Highway Patrol: The Sniper was the 7th episode of the third season. This half hour police drama stars Broderick Crawford as Chief Dan Mathews. In this show, Mathews and the California Highway Patrol deal with a sniper shooting at various cars as they pass by. …

From the second year of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Escape from Venice was the fifth show to air. This science fiction program came from the mind of Irwin Allen, and it’s always been a favorite of mine. In this show, Captain Crane gets his …

M*A*S*H: Death Takes a Holiday has a few different twists as the 4077th celebrates another Christmas. By now, they’ve actually celebrated more Christmas seasons than there actually were in the actual Korean conflict.
The most dramatic story was focused on B.J. Hunnicutt (Mike Farrell), who has a wounded patient. …

While Season 8 left us Family Guy fans with some great episodes, there were a few that left something to be desired, so I was really looking forward to the first episode of Season 9. I was waiting to be Wowed. …

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 …

I love the show One Tree Hill. It has been a favorite of mine since the first show started. I own seasons one and two on DVD. If I ever have some extra money I will buy the next seasons on DVD. I love all of the characters and …

I think Desperate Housewives Season 5 Episode 17 is an important development because this is the season whereby Lynette gets a job, and you will see why Gabby is acting like she’s not jealous but in actual fact she is so worried about her husband working with his own ex-girlfriend. …
